He sacrificed his education, mainly his whole life to support his family. All his life, he's been paying debts he never own. They are the main reason why he left for Thailand but unfortunately, all his hard work is still not enough.
He was asked for too much! Too much than he can provide. Too much that he can generate. Too much that he can afford. If only I could help, if only I could give them the money that they need to let Joey go and rest, I'll give them whatever they ask.
My family was able to raise me comfortably. It's my mother who never gave up on giving the best that we deserve and so between Joey and I, I really feel pity on his situation. He deserves everything good and comfortable. He deserves to be acknowledged and treated like a king.
I just can't help but to feel guilty. I was in Boracay last week and he's there working his butt 12 hours straight. As a wife, all I can do is to support and give him words of strength that will hopefully help him get through the day. For the first time, I learned how to keep myself silent while he tell his story to me. After that, I seriously committed myself to something that I should really do.
I should not ask for anything from Joey as much as I can.
While we don't have a baby yet, we should focus on our priority. I want him to focus on his obligation to his family while I have to finish my masters so I will be of help to him after graduation. I have to save money for our house and hopefully continue aiming for a doctorate degree. I must do whatever it takes to make him happy. We should work hand in hand if we want to end this debt.
We don't have much of a family savings yet but I hope that this school year will give us a better chance of opportunity to save as much as we can for the month of December, our deadline.
A wife should be a woman of love and understanding. This is a person that I want to be for him and this I will become.
