His POV.
SHAWN DEANO SALAZAR.
"Shawn, I want to go back, gusto ko muna makapag isip isip." Umupo sa harap ng lamesa ko ang kapatid ko.
"What do you mean baby?" I asked while facing my laptop.

Tol, are you busy? I just wanna ask you something.
'Ba't nag email pwede namang magchat?' I thought bago ako nagreply.
TO: ZekiellSantiago@gmail.com
What?
FROM: ZekiellSantiago@gmail.com
Thank God, at nagreply ka! May alam ka ba kung nasaan si Rebecca?
Mahina akong natawa at inisip ang bilin ni Rebecca sa akin
TO: ZekiellSantiago@gmail.com
She was with me here pero bumalik na ulit siya jan just 2 weeks ago. Hindi ko alam kung nasaan siya.
Sorry bro, napag utusan lang.
Hindi na ulit nag email sakin si Zeki, pero ilang araw pa ay bigla niyang sinabing missing daw ang kapatid ko.
I emailed my sister.
TO: @BekiSal
Hey baby, I just want to let you know that your ex-lover declared you are 'MISSING'. Are you sure that you don't want me to tell him where you are?
naghintay ako ng ilang saglit bago ko nakitang typing na siya.
FROM: @BekiSal
No! Don't tell him, ikakasira niya ang makita akong muli so don't. Please kuya, just tell him 1 year na akong nawawala? Or basta, just excuse me in every conversation you'll have with him.
hindi na ako nagreply.
I dialed Miah to ask for investigation dahil malakas ang kutob kong may tinatago talaga sa akin.
I thought of pregnancy and I wasn't wrong.
dahil ilang araw ang lumipas ay nag send ng email sa akin si Miah.
Pictures of my sister with a familiar woman sa loob ng mall, lobong lobo ang kanyang tiyan.
Mabilis pa sa alas quatro ko siyang tinawagan.
"Kuya please. I'm sorry, I-I got scared.." Umiiyak na paliwanag niya.
I sigh heavily. "Pupuntahan kita, I'll book a flight. Send me your location, hindi ko gusto ang paglihim mo sa akin Rebecca." I said before ending the call.
Isang linggo ako sa bahay ni Rebecca sa Davao.
Pinadagdagan ko ang katulong niya, binilhan ko rin siya ng kotse at dagdag kagamitan and money as well.
I told her I will help her with all that I can.
Ayaw niyang tanggapin ang tulong ko pero nagpumilit ako dahil hindi ako pwedeng manatili rito.
Malalaman ng mga magulang ko pag nagtagal pa ako rito.
"Baby you know that you can't hide this forever."
"I know Zeki very well, and he will surely raise hell and bid all his wealth kapag nakita niya ang kalagayan mo." I sincerely told her one night.
