PHOENIX:
Are you home?
She just read the message but didn't even bother to reply. Kararating lang niya sa bahay at dumiretso na siya kaagad sa kaniyang silid. She felt very exhausted. Sunod-sunod ba naman ang problemang dumating.
Muli siyang nabalot ng lungkot nang makaramdam ng pag-iisa. She misses her mom. Kung nabubuhay pa sana ito ay may makakausap pa siya palagi at may mapaglalabasan pa siya ng sama ng loob niya lalo na sa kaniyang ama. Hanggang sa huli ay pansariling interes pa rin ang nasa isip nito. He is guilty. At hindi niya kukunsintihin ang kasalanang ginawa ng kaniyang ama, He needs to pay for it. Kung kinakailangan nitong makulong, then be it.
She sighed when she received another message from Phoenix.
Eat your dinner.
He doesn't need to remind her. Hindi na siya bata
