steel princess

Hindi pa sila gaanong nakalalagpas sa kasibulan ng kabataan nang magkakilala’t ma-fall sa isa’t isa sina Ana at Enrico. Madali silang nahulog sa patibong ng pag-ibig na sa una lang puro kilig. Maaga silang ikinasal sa huwes. Hindi man lang muna inihanda ang kanilang kinabukasan. Nang magsama sila sa iisang bubong at maharap sa krisis ng realidad ng buhay may-asawa, tulad sa pag-inom ng alak, matapos malasing sa pag-ibig ay matinding hangover ang sumubok sa katatagan ng kanilang ugnayan. Nagumon sa pag-inom ng alak si Enrico. Gumatong ito sa galit ni Ana dahil sa kaiintindi kung paano sosolusyunan ang kanilang mga problema. Hanggang sa mapuno ang salop at humantong sila sa maapoy at dramatikong sakitan ng damdamin. Pinalayas ni Enrico si Ana. Nagpakalayo-layo si Ana at pumunta sa rose farm ng matalik niyang kaibigan. Sa loob ng ilang panahon, humupa ang hangover ng bara-bara nilang pagkalasing sa pag-ibig. Kaalinsabay nito’y ang pagsisisi at pananabik sa isa’t isa. Nahimasmasan si Enrico sa nagawa niyang pagkakamali. Pati ang tadhana’y nakiayon sa kaniya upang maituwid ang lahat. Nakatulong din sa mabilis na pagbabago ni Enrico ang natuklasan niyang diary ni Ana. Nagtuloy-tuloy ang pagbabago ni Enrico para kay Ana. Si Ana nama’y nagtuloy-tuloy ang pananabik at pangungulila kay Enrico; umabot pa nga sa puntong hinahanap niya ito sa ibang lalaki. Hanggang sa di inaasahang araw, muling nagkurus ang kanilang landas. Ngunit naulit ang kahapon. Muling nagpakalayo-layo si Ana. Ang dahilan—may bagong babae si Enrico. Umuwi si Ana sa bahay ng Tiyo Narding niya. Si Enrico nama’y pursigidong tapusin ang gusot sa pagitan nilang dalawa. Sinundan niya si Ana. Sa bahay ng Tiyo Narding ni Ana naresolba ang lahat sa paraang kakatwa at nakakikilig. Sa huli'y opisyal na kasalan ang naganap. Kasalang puno ng luha ng kaligayahan.
