CHAPTER 52: KNOW YOUR PLACE
MULA SA loob ng bahay ay tumatakbo si Peter patungo sa direksyon ni Sapphire, sumilip din si Helene na naka-ngiti at humahabol kay Peter.
"Peter?"
Halos matumba silang pareho nang yumakap ito kay Sapphire. He hugged her so tight that it made her feel like hugs were nostalgic. Naninipa ang kaniyang puso sa tuwa dahil sa presensiya ng pinaka-malapit niyang pinsan at kung bakit ito nanlalambing ngayon ay marahil may na-kuwento si Sean.
Kumalas ito sa pag-kakayakap before he raked her body with a frown in his face. He gently pressed her thin arms. "Pumapayat ka, Saf?"
"Mapayat na'ko noon pa..."
Pumasok sila ng bahay para roon ituloy ang kanilang kuwentuhan. Helene handed her a dark paper bag as her present last Christmas, hindi nakasama ang mga ito sa America

It's You CHAPTER 53: SHE'S JUST A MYTH
"OH MY gosh! is that true, hija? Sigurado kabang gusto mong dito na mag-college sa states?" Hindi makapaniwala ang kaniyang mommy habang sinasabi magkausap sila sa telepono at binanggit ng kaniyang anak ang tungkol sa desisyon nito. Surely, they will be happy about it. It will put the both of them at ease. Although, that's not the real reason why Sapphire made a change of mind. It's still sir Will, it's about her pains, her fears. Siguro nga'y tanggap na niyang talo nga siya kay Sir. Will. Pero hindi na kayang tiisin ni Sapphire ang makita pa ito at makasama sa iisang school especially when time comes na ikasal na nga siya kay Ruth. Lalo na ang makita pa siyang naghahatid-sundo ng kanilang mga anak sa mismong school kung saan nag-aaral si Sapphire. Wala pa'y naiimahe na niya ang mga mangyayari. "I'll just fix everything here, Mom. Right after the graduatio
It's You CHAPTER 54: I'M BEGGING
DALAWANG ARAW bago ang pinaka-hihintay na prom night ng mga estudyante sa school, maraming bulong-bulongan tungkol sa theme at sa kaniya-kaniyang gowns na balak suutin ng ilan. Meanwhile, Sapphire just chose to volunteer to help on the preparation, especially on the decorating department. She heard about Maurice and some of her classmates volunteering on the said preparation. Ilang araw na silang wala sa classroom, excuse naman sila at isa pa'y wala na ring gaanong gawain sa academics. They're just waiting for the final examination and then graduation is waving. Maliban sa event organizer na ni-hire ng school ay naroon din si Mrs. Doqueza para magmando sa mga gawain at dahil naging malapit na rin naman sila ni Sapphire, hindi na ito nahirapang kumbinsihin ang Ginang. She badly need this, the distance from him, the silence from unnecessary noises, the diversion.
It's You CHAPTER 55: GREATEST WISH
SA KABILA ng panghihina ay sinikap pa rin ni Sapphire na manglaban, maagap siyang tumakbo nang makawala siya subalit pumulupot lang din sa kaniyang baywang ang mga braso nito. He carried her back on the hidden place, he pinned her against the wall and with all the strength he got, he jailed Sapphire to stop him from scaping. "Why you're keep on doing this to me? Itinapon mo na'ko, hindi ba? Kasi dumating na iyong one great love mo! I know you will never gonna like me because we're far different. Kabaliktaran ako ng lahat sa kaniya!" "Hindi totoo 'yan, Sapphire." He look very troubled with his serious face and bloodshot eyes. "You listen to me first, please!" "No! I'm done listening to you. Dahil simula pa noon masasakit na salita lang din naman ang kaya mong ibigay sa akin, 'di ba? I'm a brat? I'm stupid? You hate me and you
It's You CHAPTER 56: SAY HI TO THE UNDERWORLD
"1... 2... 3... smile!" Matatamis na ngiti ang ihinarap nina Sapphire at ng mga kaibigan nito sa camera kung saan ang photo booth. They made different poses, different angels and their smiles bursted in laughters after. "Kuya, make four copies, please," ani Alexis at nakuha pang kindatan ang guwapong photographer na halatang interesado rito. Pagkatapos ay biglang nagbago ang itsura nito, inilabas niya ang phone para i-check ang kaniyang mukha. "Do I still look fresh, guys?" "Darating ba si Hiro?" nagtatakang tanong ni Trisha. "May sarili silang event, right? Umattend ba si Sean, Sappy?" Bumaling naman ito kay Sapphire. "Yeah, pero ang sabi niya hindi siya magtatagal. Susunod daw siya kaagad dito para bantayan ako." "Really? I'll text Hiro na ma
It's You CHAPTER 57: AMBUSHED
MAY ISANG Bintanang nagtagpuan si Sapphire sa likod ng isang metal drawer. She struggled a bit opening the window and when she finally did, napa-ngiwi lamang din siya sapagkat may rehas iyon at imposibleng magamit niya ito sa pagtakas. But Sapphire never lose her hope. Nilingon niya ang pinto sa kabilang gilid, iyon ang sunod niyang nilapitan. She's twisting the doorknob when she noticed another envelope sticked on the door. She snatched it to open... "WANT TO KNOW THE HISTORY? GO AHEAD AND FOLLOW ME! LET'S HAVE FUN!" May arrow sa ibabang parte ng sulat indicating the outside of the room or only God knows what? Gano'n pa man ay pinihit pa rin ni Sapphire ang doorknob at lakas loob siyang naglakad palabas. Mula sa kabilang panig nito'y isang medyo madilim na kwa
It's You CHAPTER 58: YOU'RE SO UNFORTUNATE
BUT SAPPHIRE fake her sleep, she prevent breathing for almost twenty seconds just to trick her kidnappers. Ibinana nila si Sapphire sa backseat ng kotse, malakas nilang isinarado ang pinto at ang sumunod na mga pangyayari ay hindi na nito masyadong alam, all that she know is that the car's moving and the driver is no other than Ruth. "Bantayan ninyong maigi sina Rovic at Will, huwag ninyong hahayaang makatakas at baka maunsyami na naman ang plano ko," huli nitong bilin sa dalawang tauhan. Sapphire has no clue what Ruth is up to right now, balak pa 'ata nitong mag-carpool? Ten minutes of driving and Sapphire ended her drama. Idinilat niya ang kaniyang mga mata, medyo hilo pa siya at nanghihina. Naka-tali ring muli ang kaniyang mga kamay, she's having hard time moving. This is ridiculous!
It's You CHAPTER 59: TWINKLING EYES
NAGMAMADALI SA pagtakbo si Sapphire pagkababa nito sa taxi na kaniyang sinakyan, she just paid for the ride then head directly inside their mansion. From there she found her Mom, still catching breaths, livid and about to explode once more. Naka-tayo ito at walang hinto sa pabalik-balik na paglalakad habang todo sunod naman ang naka-hawak ng pamaypay na si Sean. He's still with his coat and tie, he looks so formal pero wala siyang choice ngayon kun'di ang maging tiga-paypay ng kanilang nag-ttantrums na Mommy. Her mother's eyes immediately flew to her when the door made a little sound after Sapphire shut it. Her mom's storm rage on, her footsteps could ruin the innocent floor as she approached Sapphire and gripped her left arm with so much intensity. She's still shaking in anger but she manage to speak calmly. "Sappy, what are you
It's You CHAPTER 60: SCHOOL UNIFORM
SAPPY WENT downstairs the next day for her work, she's with her decent pair of uniforms already. Her dark brown, shoulder-length hair is now rolled in a perfect bun. Sa kaniyang bisig ay ang tatlo niyang makakapal na libro, habang sa kabilang braso niya'y ang kaniyang bag. Nagmamadali itong bumaba para pumulot nalang ng slice of bread mula sa kanilang dining."I'm running late, I'll go now, Mom..."Tinungo ni Sapphire ang kabilang side ng table kung saan naka-puwesto ang ina nitong tahimik at walang ekspresyong sumi-simsim sa kaniyang tsaa. Yumukod siya nang kaunti para sana halikan ang kaniyang mommy bilang pagpapaalam, subalit nanlamig si Sapphire nang iilag ng Ginang ang kaniyang pisngi mula sa kaniya.Ibinaba nito ang mamahaling tea cup niya kasabay no'n ay ang paglapag din nito sa table napkin na nasa kaniyang kandungan.
