"Uno! What were you thinking after all the things that she did for us?" Halos mamilipit na sa sakit si Travis nang sugudin niya ang kinaroroonan ni Uno.

There Travis found him lying in the most comfortable bed surrounded by his men. Ang daming nangyayari na hindi maintindihan ni Travis. Everything happened in a flash and they didn't have time to comprehend everything.

"What do you mean? She's the reason why every man here in Shakrila is on the edge of dying." Hindi makapaniwalang napabuntong hininga si Travis dahil sa kaniyang narinig.

Ang tanging hindi maintindihan ni Travis ay kung paano na lang ideklara ni Uno na kailangang ikulong si Tiara. Uno, out of men, thinks rationally and so he thought. Mukhang ang tanging iniisip lang nito ay ang pangsarili niyang kaligtasan. He thinks rationally, but he only does this for himself.

However, Travis now thinks that was so wrong. Nang magising siya ay ang una niyang narinig mula sa labas ay nakawala ang babae at ngayo'y kung sino man ang makakahanap sa kaniya ay makakatanggap ng premyo.

''How can you...'' Napahilamos na lamang ng mukha si Travis.

Uno's face was just blank because he believed that this was for the sake of everyone. For Uno, he'd rather sacrifice one sheep to save a hundred. Kung hindi nila ikukulong ang babae'y tiyak na mas madami pa itong mabibiktima. Some men might think that kissing the woman again could save them, but no.

The only thing Uno thought about was isolating the woman in a tight and secure jail, with thick bars...

"Just be thankful that I came up with the solution earlier, Travis. Who knows? Maybe even looking at her would make our condition worse." Uno's words haunted Travis.

Sa huli'y hindi niya napigilang sugudin ito nang tuluyan at kuwelyuhan. Everyone got alarmed, yet Uno just raised his hand to tell them nonverbally that he could fix everything.

Nanlilisik ang mga mata ni Travis nang higpitan niya ang hawak mula sa kuwelyo ni Uno. Travis can still feel a tingling pain all over his body yet he couldn't care less. Ang tanging naiisip niya lang ngayon ay magwala't saktan ang lahat ng pumayag na ipakulong si Tiara.

''How about, Ehmyr? What did Ehmyr said?''

Hindi na maintindihan ang mga sinambit ni Travis dahil nabasag ang kaniyang boses. Tears started forming in his eyes again. Wala na siyang magawa kun'di iiyak na lang ang lahat. He bit his bottom lip. Nangangatal ang buong katawan niya sa galit.

"We decided to replace Ehmyr because he's a minor. He justified that the reason why the woman has a mark is because she lost something precious too. However, we all know that, according to the law, a minor is a minor."

Lalong umakyat ang dugo ni Travis sa kaniyang ulo nang marinig ang naging sagot ni Uno sa kaniya. Marahas niyang binitawan ang kuwelyo ni Uno.

''Val! Flame! Zex! Lolong!'' He called for his dearest friends who are laying from a far but all of them avoided his gaze.

Halos nagwawala nitong sambit nang pasukin niya ang loob ng silid. Lumiko siya't dumiretso sa kulungan kung saan dinala si Tiara. His heart started beating fast and his whole body shook. Aminado siyang hindi pa mabuti ang kalagayan niya't may konting kirot at hilo pa siyang nararamdaman.
