“My poor girlfriend… I feel so guilty. I couldn’t protect her.”
“Baby Kyutt, I’m sorry for not being a perfect boyfriend.” I kissed her forehead, tears spilling out.
“Please wake up. I’ll do everything for you. I’ll marry you right away, I promise. I won’t let you go ever again. Please…be strong.”

“My daughter…”
“Auntie?…”
“Henry, what really happened to her?”
“Auntie, it’s a long story. Please let Uncle rest first, and then I’ll explain everything later.”
“Thank you, son. But for now, we just want to watch over our daughter.”
“I told you, hon, we shouldn’t have left our princess. We were too strict with her… If only this hadn’t happened to her,” her mother wept.
“Shhh, I know hon. But there’s nothing we can do. What’s done is done.”
Moments later, Kylie’s father stepped closer, staring at her.
“I’m sorry, my child…” Tears flowed from his eyes, sincerity shining in them.
“Please forgive us. We didn’t mean it.” He added softly.
“We love you so much…” And he kissed Kylie on the forehead.
“Auntie, Uncle, I’ll step out for a bit to buy you some food. You might be hungry already.”
“Alright, son, thank you.”
“It’s nothing, really.”

I *need* to catch Jevelyn and make her pay for what she did to Kylie. But she’s so hard to find, so hard to chase down. Even the authorities can’t track her.
“Tsk. Where are you? Have some pity on your friend.”
“Then again…you never had pity in the first place. You’d let someone die if it meant getting what you want.”
After I bought food so we’d last until later, suddenly my phone rang—it was Auntie.
“Hello, Auntie? Why, what’s wrong?”
“Henry… it’s Kylie…” she sobbed.
“What? I’ll be right there!”

“Auntie, Uncle, what’s happening?” I asked when I saw the doctors and nurses surrounding Kylie.
“Henry!” they cried, hugging me while in tears.
Don’t tell me…no…
