SERENA'S POVKinabukasan, nag-ayos na ako para sa sarili ko. Hindi lang ako nag-ayos sa pisikal, pero pati na rin sa mga emosyon ko na maaaring pumutok kapag nalaman ko kung sino talaga ang nasa likod ng mga ito. Pinilit kong pakalmahin ang sarili ko habang inaayos ang buhok ko at tinitigan ang sarili ko sa salamin. I needed to be ready, not just for what I might see, but for whatever truth was waiting for me.I wore something simple and casual, nothing that would make me stand out. Isang plain na fitted shirt, light-colored jeans, at isang pares ng simpleng sneakers. I tied my hair loosely behind my head and carried a small sling bag across my body. Walang alahas, walang mamahaling gamit, at walang kahit anong maaaring makatawag ng pansin.Bumaba ako at nakita si Sebastian. Naka-oversize black T-shirt siya na bahagyang nakalugay sa katawan niya at cargo pants na nakalapat nang maayos sa mahahaba niyang binti. His sleeves revealed his strong forearms, while his messy hair made him loo

SERENA'S POVNakuha ni Sebastian ang baril mula sa isang lalaki at ipinasa ito kay Marian, na agad naman itong itinutok sa kaaway na lalaki upang pigilan itong gumalaw. Her hands trembled slightly as she kept the gun pointed at him, her eyes never leaving his movements. The man slowly raised his hands, knowing that one wrong move could cost him his life.Hindi ko kilala ang mga lalaking ito. Pero isa lang ang alam ko, galing sila sa isang partikular na amo na gustong kunin ang briefcase ni Mang Nardo dahil naglalaman ito ng kontrata niya sa misteryosong lalaki, at alam kong hindi lang basta kontrata ang nasa loob noon. Nandoon ang isang bagay na maaaring magpatunay sa kawalang-sala ni Papa.I couldn't stop worrying about them. My eyes darted from one man to another, trying to understand what was happening. My heart was pounding so hard that I could almost hear it in my ears. Every second felt like it was stretching longer than the last, and I hated the fact that I couldn't do anything

SEBASTIAN'S POV I knew from the very beginning that Serena and I were different. Her personality did not match mine. And all I could think about was how right I was. Naglalabas ako ng mga salitang alam kong makakasakit sa kaniya. Because I never considered her back then, but as time went by, I started noticing her from a different angle. She's strong, independent, and defiant. A loving mother and a daughter who would do anything for the people she loves. That day when she started the meeting and encountered Mrs. Villarreal, she was unstoppable. Hindi ko akalain na makikita ko siya nang ganoon sa harap ng iba. I thought she wasn't capable of doing anything, but what I just saw was a Serena who was far from the one in my point of view. When her revenge against Celine and Eric successfully pulled off, I felt happy seeing kung paano siya naging palaban. It was satisfying enough to watch. And somehow, gumaan ang pakiramdam ko nang makitang nadismaya si Eric. That time, nakita ko sa m

SERENA'S POVNakaupo ako sa labas ng kwartong kung saan nakahiga ang bangkay ni Mang Nardo. Paulit-ulit akong humingi ng tawad sa mga anak niya. They didn't respond, and they didn't avoid me either. Para bang hindi nila alam kung paano ako haharapin, o marahil ay wala na silang lakas para magsalita. At sa katahimikang iyon, pakiramdam ko ay nanigas ang buong katawan ko sa kahindik-hindik na tanawing iyon.Hindi ko magawang alisin sa isip ko ang imahe ni Mang Nardo. Ang lalaking ilang oras lamang ang nakalipas ay buhay pa, ngayo'y wala nang hininga, wala nang boses, at wala nang pagkakataong makauwi sa kaniyang pamilya. His children had lost their father, and somehow, I felt like I had a part in that loss.I leaned my head against the wall, totally out of breath. Parang hindi sapat ang hangin na pumapasok sa baga ko. Every breath felt heavy, as though guilt itself had settled inside my chest.Kung hindi lang ako naging makasarili, kung hinayaan ko na lang si Sebastian na palayain ang a

SEBASTIAN'S POVWe are sitting inside our van. Serena and I, along with the children, sat in the passenger seats. Caleb and Chloe kept talking while Serena gave small responses to them. It was clear that she was tired. Her eyes were already heavy, and every now and then, her head would slightly tilt as if she were fighting against sleep. Yet she still forced herself to listen to every little thing the twins said, occasionally giving them a quiet response or a tired smile. She looked completely drained, but she never once complained.Tumingin ako sa relo ko. It's already 10 p.m. Why did Grandma bring the kids anyway? It's already late. I remember back then, I used to be a perfectionist. I cared about my health. I slept at 7 p.m. and woke up at 6 a.m. I always ate boiled eggs to pair with my breakfast. I hated drinking coffee because of the caffeine. My days were always organized, predictable, and controlled. I knew when to eat, when to work, and when to sleep. I thought that was how li
