"I'll stop running away, Jago! Promise, hindi na ako tatakas!" Pagmamakaawa ko sa asawa or soon-to-be ex-husband ko kapag nakatakas ako rito. Pinilit kong makatayo sa pagkakahiga pero hindi ko kaya dahil nakagapos ang kamay ko sa headboard. "You already told me that earlier and yet, you still tried to run away from me... Hindi na gagana sa'kin 'yan..." Madilim ang ekspresyong sagot nito. Lumapit ito kaya naman napapikit ako. Naramdaman ko ang pagsikip ng tali sa kamay ko kaya napadilat ako. "Promise, totoo na talaga 'to! Tanggalin mo na yung tali, please? Natatakot na ako sa'yo!" Kinakabahang usal ko kay Jago pero hindi ito sumagot. Pumatong ito sa'kin at malambing na sinapo ang mukha ko. Impit akong napaung*l nang marahan nitong halikan ang aking leeg. Alam nito kung paano ako kunin dahil kaagad nanghina ang katawan ko sa ginawa nito. "Uhm, Jago! Please!" Hiyaw ko sa pangalan nito nang magsimulang maglandas ang kamay nito sa katawan ko. "I'll make you love me again. You're mine, Isla. You're only f*cking mine..." *********** Matapos ang pagtatalo ng mag-asawang sina Jago River Laxamana at Allona Isla Avellino ay inihagis ni Isla ang wedding ring niya kay Jago upang mapagtanto nitong seryoso siya sa kagustuhan niyang makipaghiwalay. Matapos gawin iyon ay nanakbo ito paalis sa bahay nilang mag-asawa. Nasa bingit na talaga sila ng hiwalayan dahil sa pagkawala ng sana'y panganay nilang anak. Walang araw na hindi nagbabangayan ang mga ito kaya hindi maayos ang kanilang relasyon. Kinidnap ni Jago si Isla. Nang magising ito ay mahimbing ang pagkakatulog ni Jago sa tabi niya. Napagtanto nitong nasa island sila kaya nagpatuloy ang bangayan nila at nagtangkang tumakas si Isla mula kay Jago. Makakatakas kaya si Isla sa asawa niyang si Jago? O magtatagumpay itong muling kuhanin ang kaniyang puso at angkinin siya?
