*WAYNE LOUIE ANDERSON'S POV It's been three days since that incident happened to Erina. We're still here at the hospital, and tomorrow she can be discharged. Her condition is improving, but she still can't move properly because of the stab wound she sustained. The important thing is she can move a little and has also regained some strength. I'm still worried for her safety, especially since she is being targeted by the people who have dark intentions toward me to completely bring me down. Deo has already found information about Felipe Guanzon. He is the right-hand man of an unidentified leader of a syndicate who intends to kill me. But it has not yet been determined whether he was also the one who sabotaged my car to cause my accident. "Yes, Aguilar. Thank you, but as much as possible, keep what you found out just between us for now. Don't tell anyone or anybody," I said, with a trace of pleading. I was talking to the investigating officer who is helping me with my case. I already

*ERINA ISABEL TUAZON'S POV"Kailangan mong kumain ng madami para bumalik ang lakas mo. Try this one, niluto ko 'to nang makauwi ako kanina," aniya, sabay lagay ng carbonara sa plato ko. "Don't rush back into eating a lot since you just had surgery, but you still have to get something in your system."Hindi ako sumagot; sa halip ay nakatitig lang ako sa ginagawa niya.It was my brother—ang taong hindi ko inaasahang makita rito ngayon. I didn’t think he’d make time to come home for me, considering how busy he said he was with work. Pero natuwa ako, dahil pinatunayan niyang may pagpapahalaga pa rin siya sa akin."Akala ko hindi ka makakapunta rito..." Nag-angat siya ng tingin sa akin at binaba ang hawak niya bago umupo sa tabi ko. "Honestly, I already expected that you wouldn’t make it home, but I’d understand if you didn’t," dugtong ko, may bahid ng tampo ang boses.Napabuntong-hininga siya, bagay na ipinagtaka ko. "Honestly, I shouldn’t have been able to come home now since I’m busy wi

"I found out that it wasn’t you he was after, but me. He followed you that night kasi alam niyang susunduin kita," aniya nang hindi nakatingin sa akin. "He knows my every move since the moment he found out where I was," dugtong niya, na ipinagtaka ko.Bigla akong napaisip, ngunit may bahid pa rin ng pagtataka ang mukha ko. "So ang ibig mong sabihin kilala ka niya? Alam niya kung sino ka?" tanong ko, ramdam na ang kaba sa dibdib ko.I think I know what this is leading to.Napabuntong-hininga siya at dahan-dahang tumango bilang sagot bago tumingin sa akin. At doon ko napansin ang takot sa mga mata niya. Hindi ko alam kung bakit, but I think he’s afraid that what happened to him might happen again—that he would have died if I hadn’t saved him.“He wants to kill me,” aniya, na ikinagulat ko at halos hindi ako agad makapaniwala. Nanlamig ang mga kamay ko habang tinitigan ko siya, sinusubukang hanapin sa mukha niya kung nagbibiro ba siya o totoo ang sinasabi niya. Pero mukhang totoo nga ito

Napabuga ako ng malalim na buntong-hininga matapos naming mag-usap ni Kuya Erick. Pinagpatuloy ko na rin ang paglalakad ko, pero bigla na lamang akong napahinto nang may namataan akong isang itim na van na nakaparada hindi kalayuan mula sa akin. "Fuck..." ang salitang bigla na lang lumabas sa bibig ko habang diretso ang tingin sa direksyon ng van. Bigla akong kinabahan at ramdam ang takot na nagsisimula nang mamuo sa buong sistema ko. Parang bigla akong naputulan ng hininga at ramdam ko na rin ang panlalamig at paninigas ng mga kamay ko. Gusto kong tumakbo, pero parang napako na ako mula sa kinatatayuan ko. "It's just a van, Erina. Kailangan mong kumalma," paulit-ulit kong pangungumbinsi sa sarili ko, pilit na pinapawi ang kaba na unti-unti nang kumakain sa akin. Ngunit bigla akong napamura sa aking isipan nang bumukas ang pinto nito at may lumabas na apat na lalaki mula sa loob. Para bang sabay-sabay pa silang lumingon sa direksyon ko, na tila ako talaga ang pakay nila. "Fuck! Bak

*WAYNE LOUIE ANDERSON'S POVI couldn’t speak because of what I heard. I don’t know what I should feel—whether I should be scared or angry because of what my father did. But what I want to do now is to talk to him about it so that he’ll stop whatever he’s planning."P-Paano mo nalaman, Deo? How could he do that when Erina hasn’t even done anything wrong to him?" tanong ko, naguguluhan pa rin dahil sa nalaman ko. I can’t stay still anymore—I need to speak with Dad right away.["Ginawa ko po agad ang ipinag-uutos ninyo sa akin, Boss. Pumunta ako sa bahay ninyo, sakto na siya lang po ang tao roon. Narinig ko siyang may kausap sa telepono at nabanggit niya ang pangalan ni Erina at ang balak niyang gawin dito."]I cursed under my breath, still couldn’t accept what my father had done. I held my forehead, pacing anxiously as fear and concern for Erina’s safety consumed me.["May plano po siyang ipadukot si Erina, Boss!"]"What?!" malakas na sambit ko, nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa gulat. I wante
