A night of mistake turned my life into a series of turmoil. A night when alcohol was mixed with suspicion, pain, and even...love. Mali man o tama. But hope was still breathing life in me knowing that everything is just temporary. Umaasa akong hind...

CHAPTER 31: SURPRISE
ENYO'S POV
I can't help but smile at I watched the man talking in front of a crowd. You'll think that he's made for this. Hindi mo akalain na siya pa rin ang binatilyo noon na para bang natatakot maging sa sarili niyang anino. Now there's an air of confidence around him... not so much that he's losing compassion but enough to be firm with his words. Now, he's a man who knows what he wants.
Daniel Ramos would be proud of him.
"Alam ko ang pakiramdam na magbayad para sa kasalanan na hindi ko ginawa. I know what it feels like to be backed in a corner with no place to run to. Alam ko ang pakiramdam na mawalan. I can never bring back what you've lost like I can't bring back the people that are important to me. But if there's one thing for sure... I'm not letting those who took my power keep on taking from me and I hope that you wouldn't too." Declan's eyes scanned the crowd, connecting. Pero tumigil ang mga mata niya sa direksyon ko at sa kabila ng suot ko na ballcap at itim na face mask ay alam kong nakilala niya ako. "I'm giving two billion to be divided to the victims' families. In no way that it will compensate what you've lost nor it will alleviate your pain but I hope that it will somehow be of use to you and your family. This is not to erase what is inflicted to you, this is just me wanting to reach out and try to help just like someone helped me when I thought everything around me was falling apart. She made me believe that the day will come that I would be completely free. So I hope that even just a little bit you'll accept my hand and believe that one day you'll be free from the nightmares too."
I gave the man a chin lift before I stepped back into the mass of people. Madaming mga tao at mga reporter mula sa iba't ibang stasyon ang nandito sa harapan ng building na pag-aari ng mga Ramos para sa public announcement ni Declan Ramos.
He's finally free from all charges and we already gave him the jewelries a week ago. Now he has them and the company that I hope he'll manage to pull up.
Maging ako ay nagulat sa halaga ng mga alahas. It cost roughly five billion pesos. Declan gave the two to the families of the victims, he'll use the other three for the company. Malaki ang korporasyon ng mga Ramos. Maraming tao ang umaasa sa kompanya. If he'll manage to revive the place, the families that are depending on the company will survive too.
"Done?"
"Yep."
Tinanggal ko ang mask ko at tinapon ko iyon sa basura na malapit bago ako naglakad papunta kay Stone na nakasandal sa isang puno na malayo sa mga taong nagkukumpulan. Nang huminto ako sa tapat niya ay inabot niya ang kamay ko bago iginaya na ako para maglakad.
"So... anong gagawin natin today?" Binaybay namin ang mahabang daan na puno ng mga establishment na umiikot sa restaurants, boutique, commercial spaces, at kung anu-ano pa. Makati is a busy place.
