Angela Papalayo na ang sinasakyang barko ni Angela.Pero wala siyang pagsisis kahit konti.Gusto niya ang ginagawa niya. Ito ang kanyang pangarap. Gusto niyang makalaya sa kahirapan. Oo...makikipagsapalaran siya sa siyudad. Doon sa malayo.Malayo sa putikan niyang pinagmulan. "Miss..may problema ka."Napalingon si Angela sa boses sa kanyang likuran.Hindi niya inaasahan ang paglitaw ng isang guwapong lalake sa kanyang likuran. Seryoso ang mukha nito. Napabuntong hininga pa ito at bumuga ng usok mula sa hawak nitong sigarilyo. "Ah eh..wala....sege mauna na po ako..."Tanggi ni Angela.Pero bago pa siya nakahuma ay nahawakan na ng lalaki ang kanyang kamay. "I'm talking to you Miss..at hindi ako sanay na tinatalikuran kapag kinakusap ko pa." Marahan nitong sabi. "By the way I'm Mark.Ikaw??? Binitawan na nito ang kanyang kamay. "Angela" mahina niyang sabi. "Ah ok..Angela...mahina nnitong sabi...nice name.Suits you."Sabi nito. May sasabihin pa sana ang lalaki pero biglang tumunog ang telepono nito."Yess..." Sinamantala naman ito ni Angela at dali -daling nilisan ang pasilyo ng barko.Bumalik na siya sa kinaoopoan kanina. Tinangka niyang maidlip. Malayo-layo pa ang Maynila. Kailangan niyang planuhin ang mga hakbang. "Mag-iingat ka doon Angela."Sabi ni Terry. Ito ang kanyang kababata na sumbongan niya sa lahat ng mga hinanaing niya sa mundo. "Magulo at masalimoot ang siyudad Angela.Hindi katulad dito sa probinsiya natin. Maniwala ka Angela dahil nanggaling na ako doon."Malungkot nitong sabi. Buntis si Terry at halos ay kabuwanan na niya. Naalala pa niya ng araw na dumating ito buhat sa siyudad. Gumawa ng malaking eskandalo sa pamilya nito ang nangyari sa dalaga. Naging pulutan ito sa mga usap-usapan sa kanilang lugar.Pero hindi kailan man inamin ng dalaga kahit sa kanya ang totoong nangyari dito. Tanging luha lang ang isasagot nito sa tuwing mapag-uusapan ang sitwasyon nito. Hindi na nangulit si Angela at hinayaan na lamang ang kaibigan. "Angela...."malakas na tawag sa kanya...
