Umalingawngaw ang utos ng isang babaeng nakatayo sa harapan ng mga nakahilerang aplikante. Hawak nito ang isang malapad na kahoy at paminsan-minsan ay marahang ipinapalo iyon sa sarili niyang palad, na tila nagbibigay babala sa sinumang magtatangkang sumuway. Napalunok si Cataleya. Nanlalamig ang kanyang mga kamay, at ramdam niya ang pag-agos ng luha sa gilid ng kanyang mga mata. Sa sandaling iyon, tila naglalaban sa kanyang isipan ang natitirang katinuan at ang matinding desperasyon. Kailangan niya ng pera. Kailangan niya ito ngayon. Isang linggo pa lamang ang nakalipas nang barilin ang kanyang ama. May mga lalaking pumasok sa kanilang bahay, may hinahanap na kung ano. Ngunit hindi nagpatinag si Romeo. Humawak ito ng itak, handang ipagtanggol ang kanilang tahanan. Sa isang iglap, pumutok ang baril. Walang pag-aalinlangan. Walang awa. Dinala nila ang kanyang ama sa ospital, duguan at halos wala nang malay. Agad itong isinailalim sa operasyon. Ayon sa mga doktor, malubha ang tinamong pinsala sa loob ng katawan nito. Ilang araw din itong nanatili sa ICU bago nagkaroon ng malay. Ngunit kahit na gumising ito, hindi pa rin tapos ang laban. Lumobo na sa apat na raang libong piso ang kanilang hospital bill. Halos hindi mabilang ang mga bag ng dugo na isinaksak sa katawan ng kanyang ama sa unang mga araw. At hanggang ngayon, hindi pa rin ito makalabas ng ospital. Kahit anong pakiusap ni Cataleya—na babayaran niya ang balanse sa sandaling makahanap siya ng tulong—ay hindi tinanggap ng pribadong ospital. Kailangan nilang magbayad agad. Dalawang daang libo pa ang kulang. Kaya heto siya ngayon—nakatayo sa isang silid, kasama ang iba pang mga babae, pinipili at pinaghuhubad. “Hubad na!” sigaw muli ng babae, sabay ngisi. “Baka naman pinaglalaruan niyo ako. Sinasabi niyong birhen kayo pero kapag oras na, parang hindi naman kasya ang lalaki sa inyo.” Napakabulgar. Napapikit si Cataleya, pilit nilulunok ang hiya at galit. Hindi niya maintindihan kung bakit kailangan ang ganitong proseso. Online lang naman niya nakita ang trabahong ito. Bakit kailangang umabot sa ganito? Napatingin siya sa paligid. Ang ibang mga babae ay nagkakatinginan din, halatang kinakabahan ngunit walang lakas ng loob umatras. Kung hindi lang siya iniwan ng kanyang kuya, hindi sana siya hahantong dito. Ilang linggo na itong hindi nagpaparamdam. Pwede naman sana silang mag-loan, maghanap ng paraan. Ngunit tila pinili nitong tumakas sa responsibilidad. Kaya ngayon, siya—isang estudyante—ang sumasalo sa lahat. Wala siyang ibang pagpipilian. Dahan-dahan siyang sumunod sa utos. Mas mabuti na iyon kaysa mapahamak pa. “Sandali!” Napalingon silang lahat sa pintuan. May isang babaeng pumasok, elegante ang tindig at may kakaibang awtoridad sa boses. Napako ang tingin ni Cataleya rito—pamilyar ang dating, tila kahawig ng isang taong nakita na niya noon. “Ilalabas ko na ang number five,” sabi nito. Nanlamig si Cataleya. Mabilis siyang tumingin sa mga katabi—may hawak na numerong tatlo at apat. “Ikaw ‘yon,” bulong ng babae sa kaliwa niya. Hindi pa siya nakakaimik nang biglang hinawakan ng babaeng may kahoy ang kanyang pulsuhan at hinila siya palabas ng hanay. “Makinis ‘to at maganda,” sabi nito habang sinusuri siya mula ulo hanggang paa. “Walang peklat. Pwede na ‘to.” “Hindi pa natin sigurado,” sagot ng isa. “Kailangan pang i-check.” “Sa dressing room ni Flavio na lang,” tugon ng unang babae. “Wala na tayong oras.” Nanatiling tahimik si Cataleya habang pinapasok siya sa loob. Bumibilis ang tibok ng kanyang puso. Ito na ba ang simula? Handa na ba siyang gawin ang lahat… para lang mailigtas ang kanyang ama? Mang-aakit na ba siya online?Finally I have what I need. I called Lily and Zack to pick me up. We need to get to the courtroom to give my dad the evidence, and finish this finally. They picked me up, and we drove as fast as we could. Once we arrived at the court, I passed the security, and I was looking for the courtroom. I could hear Lilly in the background, “good luck”. I went to my dad and his Layer, I had to be convincing, but I silently called my dad “Hey this is all you need to win, just trust me and give this to the judge”. He looked at me, not now, son. I caught his hand, “ Dad please trust me, all the evidence is there, please.” He invited his Layer, and I told him, all the evidence for this you have on this file, please give this to the Judge and no one else, the police is involved.” He looked at me strangely, and with a stern voice, are you sure about this?” I was getting tired of these questions, “please just give it to the judge.” The second my mom saw me and her lawyer, they went read. T
"You love me Arron'', she had the biggest mile and I caught myself that I was smiling too, "I mean I do not know, I think I d.." I did not get to finish my sentence and she tackled me, " I do to" She started to kiss me all over my face, "I love you too, I love you too" but then "wait, we need to get our plan in motion, now, or it will be too late. The plan was to send my mother a message, that if we split the money from the house I will get the dad to confess, and we can get rid of him. Also we have to meet to make sure what they want from the information. It was really a good plan, since once I meet my mother, I will record her and her Lawyer framing my dad, I just have to make sure my dad does not know about this. Lilly needed to leave and I was really not willing to let her go, "please stay, just tonight, I promise I will behave", I can see from her face she also did not want to go, "I have to, Nana is working and I am babysitting tonight, some other day". She kissed me and I w
Daren called me and we spoke for hours, well more like he talked and I just listened, his dad went insane, wanted to divorce, and take custody of Daren, he even slapped his mother, Daren got involved to protect his mom. It kinda was not fair since no one is blaming the real guilty person here Zak's dad, just Darren's mom. After hanging up, I had to call Lily, I just had to hear her voice. I was interrupted once my dad came back. I went down just to check on him and I was really worried after I saw him. "Dad" I called him "Dad are you ok". He looked at me like he is about to cry "No Arron i am not, you mother went to the feds, and told them that she will be their witness since she saw me dealing with the Mafia", he sight, " they will bring charges, tomorrow, and Arron and I have no money for the Lawyers, or anything. You will have to go to her, she will take everything, I do not know what to do Arron." What the hell is that woman doing, is she crazy. "Dad we can mortgage the house a
So we sat down and Daren tried to explain everything that he could. Well, more like everything he knew. The way things are looking is that his mother seduced Zach's father. Well, that is the story that everybody's saying, but actually, it's kind of the opposite. Zach's father has been pursuing Darren's mother for a very long time now, and they dated in college. It's a very difficult situation and I have no idea how the adults are gonna fix it, but I told Darren it's not his problem. It's their parents who need to fix it. You should not get in the middle of anything, even if you are. If they created the problem, they should fix it. In the end, we had to go, Darren had to face everybody and he promised he would send us a message once he was home. I went home with Lilly and the whole ride we did not speak much. Was it from all the things that happened today and the realization of why it happened, it was too much. We are just kids, we should not be dealing with this shit. When we got ho
What the hell was I thinking, I was so angry, so pissed off and the best thing that I could do is ask Lilly on a date. What is wrong with me, but I was on the edge. When I saw Anna talking to Lilly that got me mad, but when I heard what she was telling her,

“Shhh, come on in.''
When I came back to the house. My dad was waiting for me and he had a very curious face. I know he wanted to ask me a million questions on what just happened. The moment I took a deep breath and exhaled, the questions started. What happened, why did I ran out of the house, why was he looking like
