Chapter 45

"Ate Mima? What's happening?"

My hands were shaking like the leaves on the trees. The tears won't stop from flowing down my cheeks.

Hindi ko siya sinulyapan at nakabaling lang ako sa aking kamay na kahit anong gawin ko, hindi ko makayang i-tatag.

Why is that book with Duke kung sinabi ni Cashmere sa'kin na nasa isang vault yun na si Abuela lang ang nakaka-alam kung paano pumasok?

I remember it like it was yesterday. When we were still at the cottage as she tells me a story about how our family is really found in ancient things, specifically, books.

So Abuela wrote a book about no one knows. No one can translate the words in the book except for the first page, which was her name.

But a few years later, Abuelo died and Abuela hid the book in a safe vault. No one knows where it is now but it is with Duke. How?

It is because of Jewel? But she is currently missing right now, how can she help Duke?

"Ate?"

"We'll go with the original plan when Cashmere or Trevor picks up."

"Why did you run? I'm sure your friends are going to ask me." She muttered, being scared.

She's right. I face her and cupped her face before hugging her tight to my arms. I don't know what to do now, lalayag kami papunta sa Pangasinan, sooner or later and I need to tell them as soon as I can.

As soon as I find a good timing.

"Just tell them about my tattoo. I don't know anything yet but mommy told me it's the symbol of our family."

"Should I tell them about your family?"

I stopped and licked my lips as I look way. They would think that I'm a spy and I can't let my friends feel that way towards me, it will be hard to earn their trust if I tell them the truth on the right time.

And I know my friends, even Kori. She may be the sweetest among them but she can be angry if you broke her. I saw her being broke when Rhys and her broke up because of some trust issues, I don't want that to happen to us.
