Scorching Love
Imprisoned
"Tita, parang awa mo na... Please..."
"Leave his son,"
"Tita, mahal ko siya."
"You're seventeen, Snow."
"Tita, please!"
"He's going to jail... Kailangan ko na lang ang medicolegal mo..."
"I won't!"
"Hindi ako makakapayag! I will testify that it's not rape! I will do anything!"
"And what do you think will happen to your father if he's known this, huh? Na ang kanyang unica hija ay narito at naglalandi na, huh?"
"He'd understand..."
"You're gonna be the death of my brother..."
"Ito na ba, Snow? Dahil sa isang hampaslupang lalaki ay kaya mo akong pagbuhatan ng kamay? I am only speaking of the possible truths! Kung hindi mo lalayuan ang hampaslupang iyon, itutuloy ko ang demanda. Your father will be furious! The Riegos will starve!"
"Napakawalang hiya mo!"
"Sabihin mo 'yan sa akin kapag nasama ka sa paghihirap nila, Snow! Percival Riego will be imprisoned. And you're going out of the coast, grounded for the rest of your life! I promise you that!"
