She woke up in a bad dream and realize that she was not on her hotel but on Trish.
"Trish?"
"Oh you're awake already. I'm here at the kitchen."
"Oh hi. Good morning. Do you want some help?"
"Nah. I can handle this. Just sit there, this almost done."
"Oh. Thank you."
"You're welcome."
A moment of silence....
"Trish?"
"Hm?"
"Can i ask you something?"
While getting a plate. "Yes? What is it?"
"Did someone came into my room last night?"
She was putting a bacon in a plate and drop it. "Oh sorry." She immediately pick it and put it back on the frying pan. "What is it again your asking?"
"I said if someone came into my room last night?"
"Huh? Ah yeah it's me. I just put an extra towel on your bathroom." She lied.
"Oh i see. Or maybe i'm just dreaming that someone is kissing me. Weird."
"Maybe. So let's eat."
"Oh yeah."

"Who is it? Why are you not answering it?" Trish says.
"I don't want to talk to him yet."
"Until when you're going to hide on him?"
"I just want a time for a while."
"I understand you."
Silence field in the hotel.
Don't let my baby die please. I'm begging you.
Don't let my baby die please. I'm begging you.
Don't let my baby die please. I'm begging you.
The words that repeatedly pop up on her mind and Trish notice that she's not alright.
"Rach, are you okay?"
She's not answering.
"Rach, what's wrong?"
Her senses back. "Yes?"
"I said what's wrong?"

"Pa, what do you mean nothing's change?"
"Juls, i have something to tell you."
"About what?"
"About Rachel."
"What about tita Rachel?"
"Rachel is my ex girlfriend, we've been together for one year."
"What?"
"At sana you have you're older sister/brother." His face turn sad.
"What do you mean Pa?"
"She was pregnant before the accident and it was the first time na nalaman niyang buntis pala siya so wala pa kaming idea if it's a boy or girl."
"Then the baby died?"
"Yes Juls. Because of the accident our baby dies. Your sibling died." He didn't notice that a tears are falling from his eyes. "And my world began to crash when i saw her dying also. Thanks God he's strong enough to fight."
"Then what happen after?"
"She was unconcious for almost three days and i don't have any idea kung gigising pa ba siya until on her fourth day the doctor declare that she is dead but a few minutes after, her heart beat again and miracle came she's alive."
"Really Pa?" And why are you telling me this to me now?"
"I'm telling you this to you because" he breathed. "Juls, i want to win her back. I want her in my life again."
Her eyes widen and she didn't answer.
"Juls? Ayaw mo ba?"
"Pa, what about Mama? Are you going to forget her because of tita Rachel?"
"No Juls. I'll never ever do that. Your Mama is always here." (Pointing out his chest).
"Did you love Mama the way you love ate Rachel."
"Yes anak. I love your Mama."
"Can you just give me time to think about it Pa. Excuse." She left his Papa and went to her room.
