Den's POV

Matapos kong puntahan si mommy ay umuwi na muna ako sa bahay. Pagkapasok ko ay naabutan ko si Mich na nanonood ng tv.

"Mich?"

Tumingin sya sa gawi ko "Mommy. Where have you been?'

Lumapit ako sa kanya at hinalikan sya sa noo. Umupo ako sa tabi niya.

"I just went to your moma"

She nodded "Really? How is she? How about popa?"

"She is fine honey. I didnt get a chance to talk to your popa cause he is out for a gold play with his friends"

She smiled "Being young again?"

"Maybe"

"Is Britt sleeping?"

"Yes. She fell asleep early cause she cried all night"

I sighed. Napakabata pa ni Britt para maintindihan ang lahat ng bagay. "You should sleep too. It is too late."

"Okay mommy"

She kissed my cheek and went upstairs. Inilibot ko ang paningin ko sa buong bahay. Kasama din ba ito sa naipundar ni Aly ns galing sa drugs?

Umakyat na rin ako sa kwarto namin ni Ly. Naligo muna ako bago ako nahiga.

Naalala ko lahat ng sinabi ni mommy kanina. I want to be as brave as her. Ayokong masira ang pamilya ko. I dont want my children to lose their pops. But circumstances sucks.

KINABUKASAN

I dropped Mich and Britt to their school. And me, I am going to find out the truth.

Pumunta akong kulungan at nag antay sa visiting area. My hands are shaking. Kinakabahan ako. This is actually the first time I am going to see him.

"Oh. What a beautiful visitor. I am glad you visit me Mrs. Valdez"

Tiningnan ko siya. He is smiling evilly at me. And I closed my fist in anger.

"So what made you come here?"

"I want to know the truth"

He smirked "What truth?"

"About my wife"

"Well she is a drug lord. What else?"

"Damn you"

"You are wasting my time Mrs. Valdez."

He stood up and went away. But before he entered the cell he smirked and wink at me.

Pumatak ang luha ko sa galit. Nakakainis. Napaka demonyo talaga!

Umalis na ako kaagad at naisipang pumunta sa falcon corporation. I know na sarado na iyon pero alam kong may makukuha akong impormasyon doon. I dont know the exact address but I stopped when I saw it.

Ngayon lang ako nagawi dito. Kung titingnan mo, it looks like a prestigious company owned by a multi millionaire. I sighed and went out of my car. Bukas ang pinto and I saw some police.

"Ma'am ano po ang kailangan ninyo?"

"I just want to see this building inside. I heard that the government will sell this. I am interested"

Thats true. They will sell this. Hindi naman at nila ako nakilala kaya okay lang.

"May clean up operation pa po Ma'am bumalik na lang po kayo kapag okay na"

"But..."

"Pasensya na po"

I nodded and went out. Wala na ba talaga akong makukuhang impormasyon kahit konti lang. I was about to get in my car when I saw a familiar face. Mukhang nagmamadali sya kaya agad ko syang hinabol.
