Didn't Choose to Stay

When Actress Dancer (AD) started her career in showbiz, she was teased because of her last name, which was synonymous to a famed clan in the industry. Thus, AD was regarded as someone who would succeed because she has the backings of her family as well as the fans who have followed the career of the prominent people in her life. However, the drawback was the pressure that she has to prove she can be successful on her own.

During her early years, AD managed to get her own following and took advantage of opportunities to show off that she has talent and was not merely riding on her familiar name. Soon, she was able to rise above expectations and established her own name without really having to lean on her family too much. AD was even linked to a now Famous Thespian (FT), who was still a struggling actor when they were an item. Now, the situation is reversed, as FT is more popular than AD.

As the industry evolved, the roles for AD became limited and thus, she took a break for some time and resurfaced in a new genre. As showbiz is in her blood, it was impossible not to come back. With her new interest came news that she has decided to settle down. Her Husband (HH) is not from the industry, which was a blessing because that meant he would be spared from the intrigues and temptation. Or so they thought…

Sadly, AD discovered that HH was having an affair with a Talent Model (TM), who is also considered to have connections in showbiz. Some say that TM got her beautiful looks from her actor relative, who was considered one of the industry’s handsome actors during his time. Thus, TM has the looks and talent, and she knows how to flaunt it. Ironically, TM appears in projects that are close to AD and they have even worked with each other. TM, however, does not have as many fans as AD, and although she has been in the business for a time, she has been moving from one station to another, which makes establishing a fan base difficult.

The question of whether AD will become a martyr-wife does not need an answer. AD has made up her mind as to what will happen to her young marriage. Given that HH has cheated her, AD has decided to make the most painful choice. Unlike her parents, who is turning ‘forever’ into reality, AD has allegedly decided to leave HH. As their child is still too young to understand the situation, he might end up living a life without a father, but definitely, the child will have many father figures growing up.
