That was an FB message sent to me earlier; confused, I replied immediately and asked the person to meet me. Thoughts swirled in my head as I figured out what could've been this urgent and important. I waited anxiously.
We broke up...
Was the first phrase that came out my friend's mouth upon seeing. I was dumbfounded. I never thought that I'd live to see this day happen to the best couple that I know. My mind refuses to reconcile with reality, it stood in rebellion. They have shared so much, sacrificed a lot, but still it vanished in a blink of an eye. How could they let something so perfect be ruined by doubt? Is your belief more important than what you both have been through? Is it more important than love?
I couldn't react, I just sat there staring at my friend as those tear ducts gave way. I didn't know what to say (I still don't), I didn't know what to do (I still don't). I froze. I tried to speak, but no words came out. I tried to feel, but I know the feeling is way too complex for me to comprehend. I have my share of break ups but I've never had one like this. I've never been in a situation where I'm not the only one who's affected. There are three other lives at stake here-- their three boys. What will become of them?
