GROUP 2: BARCELONA, WINFLOR MARIE S.
AGNES SOLANO TO
AGNES VILLANUEVA
• Agnes’ parents were never married. She was born out of
wedlock but she was acknowledged by her father reason why
the surname indicated in her birth certificate is the same as
that of her father. After some time, her parents separated, and
her father failed to take up his responsibilities, now even
denying her publicly. Rumors started spreading within the
community she lives in, and now bears great confusion to the
general public as to why the child bears a different surname
from her mother. Agnes, as a child, felt like an outcast due to
the difference in the surname with the family she lives with.
