It was late at night but the car was still running on the coastal road north of Cebu. The ride was quiet and the chilly evening breeze was blowing gently inside the open car's window. Full moon was hanging proudly at the night sky illuminating the road ahead, helping the car's headlight provide ambient light.

They passed through Argao, Naga, Mandaue, and stopped briefly in Liloan to a drive thru fast food chain that was still open before continuing north to Bogo. Opening the food package, Jewel glanced at Gideon who was silent since earlier.

"Do you want to eat?" she asked.

Gideon shook his head, smiling at her when he glanced brieftly at the rearview mirror to meet her gaze. "Just eat," he said.

She went silent. Jewel could see the tiredness in his eyes yet he was focused on the road ahead. Her lips pursed into a thin line. She felt guilty all of a sudden while staring at the food. How could she have the guts to eat when Gideon was not eating?

She gritted her teeth and put the food

    Jewel nodded and chuckled. "Yeah, it tastes bitter. But it's delicious," she said and took another sip as if she was enjoying it. They drank a few more glasses before her vision became blurred and the sorrounding seemed spinning. She grabbed Joseph's arm. Joseph immediately held her. "Precious Jewel, are you alright?"She raised her gaze at the man and stared at his face for few seconds. "Simoen?" she called softly.Joseph frowned. "I'm not Saavedra."But tried to shake her head but only dizziness hit her. Jewel frowned as loud music was making her headache worse. Reaching his wrist, she pulled him out of the function hall and out of the Specialized building. The gentle wind blew away the lingering perfumes around her. Jewel sighed in relief. "Precious Jewel," Joseph called but Jewel did not seem to hear his calling. He saw a waiter giving out some bottles of water and because he felt thirsty, he grabbed one before Jewel could take him away.Jewel took Joseph to the Treesury which

    The place was brightly lit with lights twinkling in the dark. It was her favorite time of the year -- the holiday -- because it's time for the year end party. Tomorrow's the start of the holiday vacation and Jewel was excited to spend her vacation on reading her favorite x-rated books. "Look! Isn't that Sheena Marquez? The so-called queen bee of the campus?" Hazel's voice awakened her from stupor. Jewel raised her gaze and saw a girl in a black dress with red lips. Her hair was raised in a ponytail and her posture was good, just as expected of a girl belonging to elite circle. She shook her head. Jewel never really care about the girls of the same status as her. When one had grew in a circle all her life, all the extravagance was just part of a normal day -- and this is what the elites have that commoners doesn't. Hazel and she walked towards the Specialized building. Tiara and Gabbi was already at the party. She even joked over the phone that she would ignore them for leaving her

    Calixto could feel his heart skipped a beat. Dead fetus? His eyes wandered on the covered bed and pinched himself to keep his mind sane. "I'll settle everything she needs for the operation. Just do your job and make sure my wife will survive this ordeal. Understood?"The doctor frowned, not really happy with his threats, but didn't say anything and just turned around to prepare for the operation. Calixto on the other hand followed the intern who would guide him in completing the documents for the upcoming operation. He also called his son to come home. Clenching his fist, he looked beyond the open window where he could see the setting sun. It was four hours since the operation started and Calixto couldn't sit tight. His wife had a miscarriage, the doctor confirmed it. A four month dead fetus for pete's sake! It was four months ago when those bastards molested his wife. If he's not wrong, that dead fetus should be the product of what they did to her. It only means one thing --- they

    It was the first time Calixto saw Nilda sighing in relief after he stopped touching her. A flash of pain appeared in his eyes but it was gone in a second. A smile flashed on his lips and asked what Nilda wants to eat. A day after Nilda woke up, Mayor Calixto decided to meet with Don Sebastian in his office. Sebastian was given no choice and he arranged a car for himself. Belinda was watching worriedly at her husband, occasionally biting her bottom lip in nervousness. "Why are you so pale? Your husband won't die," Don Sebastian joked upon seeing Belinda's face. She rolled his eyes and sighed. "Remember, our family is more important than any asset, Sebastian."Sebastian's gaze deepend and he smiled at Belinda. "I will come back unharmed. The Mayor won't do unnecessary troubles to his reputation.""Just don't fight head on. The Mayor is known for not giving face to the powerful clans. Remember what happened to the Saavedra last year, they lost face and five properties for not reportin

    On a sunny day of March, a dreadful accident occured in the wide sugarcane plains of the Aisle. The Mayor's consort was involved in a hijack incident that killed ten people and took a hostage. Consort Nilda was abducted into a secluded area of the Aisle and was molested by two men. When the police arrived at the incident, the consort had been unconscious for too long that she was hanging by a thread. The Mayor then threatened the Mangubat to investigate the matter thoroughly or he would make them pay. The whole clan was in chaos after knowing the Mayor's threat. Since the ancient time, no one dared to do shameful act within the Aisle because people fear the influence and power the Mangubat clan had. But ever since Mayor Calixto Hernandez took office, the people grew courage in their actions.

    He left Medellin after he broke a woman's heart. Gideon could still remember Julie's words. "Promise me that you'll gonna come back, Gideon. I will wait for you in Medellin."And he promised her even though he was not sure how many years it will pass by before he could come back to his hometown again. Sighing, he looked outside the bus window and enjoyed the sea glistening under the sun. The bus was travelling by the coastal road in Bogo, following the path to the city where he intended to go.
