'Kumusta na kaya ngayon si Hunter?'
Their entire trip to Makati was consumed by a deep silence as she was lost in thought. Pakiramdam din niya, may malaking tipak ng kaniyang puso ang naiwan sa pinanggalingan niya, hindi niya maintindihan ang sarili dahil sa kahungkagang nadarama habang inaalala si Hunter.
Felt like she was dragging a heavy load too as they made their way along EDSA. 'Ang bigat sa dibdib, s**t!'
Paulit-ulit nang napasulyap si Tope sa kaniya, nag-aabang ng pagkukwento niya. But she remained silent, her lips sealed, leaving him curious and worried.
"Bakit ka nga pala umalis sa puder ni Giordano?" biglang basag nito sa katahimikan, glancing at her while driving.
Sinulyapan niya rin ito. "Basta."
"Tell me. Did he hurt you?"
"Hindi, Tope. Ako nga yung nanakit, eh."
