STORY BY MariCon

Yuna Benitez

Yuna Benitez

Reads

Ang kwentong ito ay tungkol sa isang ordinaryong Pilipinang piniling lumaban. Hindi ito tungkol sa yaman, sa sikat, o sa perpektong buhay. Ito ay tungkol sa pagod, sa luha, at sa mga gabing gusto mo nang sumuko pero pinili mo pa ring bumangon.Si Yuna Benitez ay 18 years old lang nung sinimulan niya ang lahat. Freshman sa Nursing. Scholar. Working student. Anak ng OFW. Ang dala-dala niya ay pangarap para sa pamilya at takot na mabigo.Sa loob ng apat na taon, haharapin ni Yuna ang lahat. Ang paghihirap sa unang exam sa Anatomy. Ang unang pasyenteng namatay sa harap niya. Ang hospital bill ni Lola. Ang sakit ni Mama sa ibang bansa. Ang semester na kailangan niyang iwan para magtrabaho. Lahat ng iyon susubok sa tibay niya.Pero sa gitna ng lahat ng iyon, may mga taong hindi siya binitawan. Si Bea na naging sandigan niya sa school. Si Miguel na naging tahimik na lakas niya. Si Ate Liza at Sir Carlo na naniwala sa kanya kahit kapos siya. At sina Lola at Lolo na laging sinasabi na kaya niya.Ang pag-ibig dito ay hindi hadlang. Ang pag-ibig dito ay paghihintay. Pag-unawa. Sabay na pagbangon.Mula sa maliit na drugstore, sa maduming hospital duty, hanggang sa Dubai at pabalik sa Pilipinas, susundan natin ang paglaki ni Yuna. Mula sa batang takot, hanggang sa babaeng naging Registered Nurse. Mula sa anak na umaasa, hanggang sa anak na ngayon ang inaasahan.Ito ay kwento ng isang pamilyang Pilipino. Kwento ng sakripisyo ng isang ina sa abroad. Kwento ng mga lolo at lola na bumuhay ng apo. Kwento ng mga kaibigan at estranghero na naging pamilya.Pagod ang kwentong ito. Totoo ang kwentong ito. At sa huli, puno ito ng pag-asa.Dahil kung kinaya ni Yuna, kakayanin din ng iba.
