Third Person's POV

When Yanyan arrived at their house, he immediately noticed the car that was parked outside. He didn't even bother asking the guards and just ignored it dahil alam naman na niya kung kanino ito.

He just straight up went to the house and greeted his family.

"I'm here na. What's the problem?" Tanong niya kaagad ng makapasok sa loob ng bahay.

"Can we eat first muna anak? And then afterwards, pag usapan?" His mother requested and he just nodded.

They all went at the dining area including Seph and his mom. Yes, the car outside was owned by them. And Yanyan knows that it's them dahil it was a family car who is parked outside.

"You ok kuya?" Zi mouthed, and he just nodded and tried to finish his food. After the long silence, their mother started talking about the problem.

"Anak, can you help them?" His mother asked.

"About what?" Tanong niya sa kaniyang ina. Dahil maraming klase ng tulong at hindi niya alam kung ano ang hinihingi ng mga ito.

"You should tell Yanyan about it." Sabi ng kanilang ama sa ina ni Seph.

"Seph, tell him?" Seph's mother said that made him have a long sigh.

"It's about dad and mom. They need to be annulled." Seph said that made him shocked.

"They got married in our country right?" Yanyan asked and Seph nodded.

"This is a serious case because we are talking about marriage. But to tell you honestly, i can't help." Yanyan said seriously.

"Why anak? Is there a problem ba?" Tanong ng ina ni Yanyan.

"Yeah. There is." Bumuntong hininga si Yanyan at saka umayos ng upo. "It's not my profession ma, i am a criminal lawyer. You should find a family lawyer para sa kaso niyo."

"But we don't trust anyone regarding this case. Knowing dad, he will do anything para lang mapigilan si mom na mag file ng annulment." Seph said with disappointment visible on his voice.

"Wait for me here. I'll contact someone." Sabi ni Yanyan at saka tumayo at lumabas ng dining area.

Pagkalabas ni Yanyan ay agad niyang tinawagan si Gavin. Ilang ring palang ay sumagot na din ito kaagad.

[Yes?] Sagot ni Gavin matapos sagutin ang telepono.

"Are you busy?" Tanong ni Yanyan sa kausap.

[Hindi naman, bakit?]

"Punta ka sa bahay. I'll explain everything kapag andito ka na." Yanyan.

[Wait. I'll be there in 15.] Gav said kaya pinatay na ni Yanyan ang tawag at saka naghintay sa labas.

Habang naghihintay ay may kinuha si Yanyan sa kaniyang bulsa. Isa iyong lighter at saka kaha ng sigarilyo. Kumuha siya ng isang stick at saka nagsindi habang naghihintay sa kaibigan.

Nangangalahati pa lamang ang sigarilyo ay may humila nito mula sa kaniyang bibig.

"You're smoking nanaman!" Reklamo ng taong kumuha ng yosi niya.

"Isa lang naman." Pagpapalusot ni Yanyan sa kausap.

"Kuya! How many times do i have to sabi sayo na don't smoke! It's not maganda sa health mo." Kunot noong sabi ni Zi sa kuya niya.

"I tried to stop Zi. You know that." Sabi ni Yanyan saka bumuntong hininga. "Hindi kaya." Dagdag ni Yanyan.

"Hindi ka naman ganyan dati kuya." Seryosong sabi ni Zia.
