Summary of the Footnote to the Youth
Monday, October 14, 2013
It was a story of a boy who was only 17 when he decides to marry his love one. He was Dodong, and he love Teang so much that he could not wait for the right age to settle down in a relationship that is hard to escape. It's the "marriage". Dodong wanted to marry Teang and asked his father's permission. Thinking that since they are young, their love would be short, He allowed them to get married. After nine months, Teang gave birth to a child named Blas. For six consecutive years, a new child came along. Teang did not complain even thought she secretly regretted being married at an early age. Sometimes she even wondered if she would have the same life if Lucio, her other suitor who was nine years older than Dodong, was the one she married.Lucio has had no children since the time he married. When Teang and Dodong were twenty they looked like they were fifty. When Blas was 18, he told his father that he would marry Tona. Dodong did not object, but tried to make Blas think twice before rushing to marriage - because Dodong doesn't want Blas to end up like him.
