"He had a brain concussion," the doctor said when he was asked about Denver’s condition.

For the first time in three years, he returned to the Philippines. No plans, no other intentions but to see Denver. He had many scratches and wounds. His head was bandaged. He was also unconscious.

According to the investigation, his car malfunctioned. The brakes didn’t work and there was a gasoline leak, as if it had been planned. They couldn’t find any other evidence because his car was hidden from the cameras.

He was lucky that his car didn’t explode when it fell into the ravine, and thankfully, someone witnessed the accident. It’s been three days, and he still hasn’t regained consciousness. There’s no positive sign.

"All we can do is observe and make an immediate response if needed," the doctor said before leaving.

Meanwhile, Cali was sitting on the sofa, just staring at Sandra.

"You’ve changed," the young man said to her, "like you aged."

"Of course. Three years passed," she said emotionlessl

    "How’s the trip?" Sandra asked.It was already six in the evening, and Denver was carrying Demie while holding Denie's hand, who was wiping his eyes as if he had just woken up from a quick nap."Momma," Denie lifted his arms, wanting to be carried by his mother.Sandra opened the door and let them in. They went straight to the kids’ room, and Denver gently placed Demie down on the bed."Thanks," Sandra said.The kids wanted to go out and play, but Sandra didn’t have time because she was busy with her new winter collection. Once the kids were settled in bed, Sandra turned to Denver, who was standing by the doorframe, looking directly at her. She immediately felt a warmth spread to her cheeks. She quickly tried to push it out of her mind and cleared her throat."I'm sorry for troubling you. I just couldn’t let the twins go on their own, especially without their nanny," Sandra explained."No worries, I enjoyed watching them too," Denver replied.There was a long silence between them. Fro

    Denver had planned to invite Sandra out on a date, but when it started raining, they decided instead to pick up the kids from the nursery school. They were overjoyed when they saw Denver, and the kids ran to him for tight hugs. When they got home, the twins immediately ran to Xyl when they saw him with their godmother, Grace.“Daddy!” the twins shouted in unison and ran towards Xyl.Xyl was holding Denie, while Grace was carrying Demie. If Denver didn’t know the twins were Sandra’s kids, he would have thought Xyl and Grace were a couple.“Daddy, I miss you,” Demie said sweetly to Xyl, which made Sandra laugh.“Really? ‘Cause Daddy misses you even more!”“Ninang Gracey, you’ll stay with us, right?” Denie leaned against Grace’s chest.“Maybe? Ask your Dad. If he stays, I’ll stay too,” Grace teased Denie.“Why didn’t you tell us you were coming home? I don’t have any groceries!” Sandra complained angrily.She was just joking. Thankfully, they came home right away, or else the kids would

    It’s been a week. She had already brought the twins back to the Philippines, but they were staying at Xyl’s house. She didn’t want to bring the kids to the hospital, nor did she want the Ybarras to see them. At least if they asked Xyl, he would say that they were his right away. He loved to claim them, so when the kids were asked who their father was, they would point to Xyl.Sandra was working on her computer when suddenly the machine started beeping wildly. She stood up and looked at Denver, who was staring at her with red eyes.“You’re awake,” Sandra said, pressing the button at the bottom of the bed to notify the nurses.“How are you feeling?” she asked Denver in a soft, tender tone. The machine started beeping crazily again, and when she looked at Denver, he smiled. “What?”He opened his mouth, but he couldn’t speak. When the doctor and nurse arrived, Sandra moved aside so they could properly check Denver. She just stared at them while they asked her questions, and she responded

    "I'M going home," Denver said.Sandra quietly listened to him. First and foremost, she knew she had no right to ask any questions. What was the point anymore, right?"I wanna fix all of this once and for all. By the time we meet each other again, I want to be whole. No more baggage," Denver said with a laugh. "I want to face you without you wondering if I’m going to leave again, or if I’ll stop pursuing you the moment you forgive me.""I’ve done all sorts of things, but believe me, they say people never change… well, unless someone’s willing to," he added."Then good luck. I hope you find your way back home just fine," Sandra replied, her voice steady but distant."I already did. I found my way back home... but the gate won’t let me in," Denver’s words carried weight as he spoke.Sandra felt the sharpness of his words sink into her, but she remained silent. He was so close, but yet so far away.I miss my wife so much. God, if only you'd give me a chance.Denver reached out for Sandra’

    “Sandra…”Denver felt like he was about to cry. Seeing her face to face felt unreal, like he was daydreaming. She was here—standing right in front of him, in the flesh.“D-Demie, let’s go home,” Sandra urged, trying to pull her child away as Demie held onto Denver’s pants.Demie looked confused. Even Denie kept staring at Denver.“Mom, he’s the guy I’ve been telling you about.”“Y-yes, let’s not bother him any longer. Let’s go home,” Sandra pleaded.She felt like she couldn’t endure Denver’s gaze. It was too overwhelming, as if he were digging deep into her entire being. She didn’t know what to say or what to do; all she wanted was to run away… again.“S-Sandra, can we talk? Hm?”At the very first step Denver took toward her, Sandra felt her knees give in.“P-please, Denver. N-no, please.”Hearing her beg him not to come closer made his heart ache. How painful was it? How much damage had he really caused in Sandra’s life?“Sandra, d-darling, can we at least t-talk? C-can I at least k-
