"A--ate," I gave her a hug para maramdaman niya na nandito lang ako sa tabi niya.

"I'm scared of Kuya Sean, he might hate me, he might think I'm a miserable dirty woman."

"Why what happened? you can open to Ate anything."

"He forced me, I didn't want it to happen, I promise ate I fight back pero he was so strong and he said if I didn't do it he would do something to ate Magui and Kuya Sean. Ate, I don't want them to be in trouble, Ate Magui is already going through a lot I don't want them to get hurt."

"Shh, I understand you. It's not your fault and it will never be your fault."

"Ate, I feel like I'm so dirty, no matter how many times I take a shower I feel like I'm so dirty. Ang dumi dumi ko."

"Hey, Seah, Listen to me, it's not your fault and it will never ever be your fault. You are the victim you shouldn't be the one who's suffering. Those stupid dickhead men are the ones who should feel the suffering, we will fight them. Don't worry."

"My friends wouldn't accept me, my Kuya might hate me, baka isipin niya madumi akong babae. Ate, I don't want that to happen."

"Seah, listen carefully to what I will say. Kapag minaliit ka ng mga kaibigan mo dahil sa nangyari sayo always remember na sarili nila ang minamaliit nila kasi wala naman silang alam sa nangyayari sa buhay mo pero madami silang nasasabi. Sila ang mga walang kwenta. Hindi ikaw, sila dapat ang mahiya sa mga sarili nila at hindi ikaw. You are a brave woman for still fighting. Your brother would never hate or dislike you, kasi sobra ang pagmamahal niya sayo kahit ano pang pagdaanan mo tatanggapin at tatanggapin ka niya because you are his sister, I know your brother."

"You should smile na, ang ganda ganda mo palang tapos iiyak ka lang." natatawa kong sabi sakanya I saw her relief face dahil nalabas niya na ang tinik sa puso niya.

Ako kaya? Kailan ko malalabas ang tinik sa puso ko? I can comfort people, natutulungan ko silang magsalita para sa sarili nila pero hindi ko magawa sa sarili ko ito.

"Ano? Papasukin ko na si kuya mo?" tanong ko sakanya at huminga siya ng malalim at tumango.

Tumayo ako para buksan ang pinto nakita ko naman si Sean sa labas na halatang sobrang nagaalala na, sinenyasan ko siyang pumasok kaya mabilis siya pumasok sa lpob ng kwarto ni Seah.

"What happened to you? Seah naman, I'm so worried, I almost kick your door just to see you." nagaalalang sabi ni Sean at niyakap ang kapatid.

"Sorry Kuya, I'm really sorry," umiiyak na sabi ni Seah.

"Shh, baby girl don't cry," haplos niya sa buhok ng kapatid.

"Kuya, I'm so sorry,"

"Stop saying sorry baby, no matter what happened I'll always be here for you. I'm your brother, right? I will protect you at all cost."

"It's Zian Kuya, he harassed me." umiiyak na sabi ni Seah.

"WHAT?! THAT FUCKING MAN?!" he shouted out of frustration. "Why didn't you told me?!" he almost cried.

"I got scared Kuya, I thought you would hate me hapag sinabi ko."

"I will never hate you, baby it's not your fault. The one who's at fault here is that fucking Zian!"

"Kuya please explain it carefully to ate Magui because I know she would be so angry kapag nalaman niya."

"Yes baby, don't worry about that, I'll take care of that." sagot ni Sean at niyakap ang kapatid niya.
