I finally got discharged from the Hospital and ready to go back to class tomorrow. It's already April 10, 2015 and our exam results are going to be release tomorrow. Days of laying in bed has come to an end. Bumisita sa akin sila Harry para balitaan ako sa mga lectures namin, binibigyan din nila ako ng mga kopya sa lessons para 'raw hindi ako mahirapan pa.









Kaizer on the other hand keeps visiting me at the hospital, para bang wala itong pasok. I wanted to ask him about his exams but he said that his results are yet to be release.








Sila Pierce at Dove ay todo alaga sa akin kapag wala pa si Kaizer sa hospital. However, I haven't seen my Mom and Chanel. Ang sabi nila sa akin ay si Mama at ang pamilya daw ni Chanel ang nag-aayos ng mga papel para ipakulong ang papa ko.









To make it much worse, Tito Louis decided to be our attorney to put my father in his rightful place. The trial is going to end soon and judging from Yvane's daily report, it's already clear that my father is going to be in the jail for 40 years.









"Ma'am Cyrena!" Napalingon ako sa matandang lalaki na nakaabang sa kotse namin. My forehead creased while I scan his unfamiliar face.









"Sino ka?" I asked while keeping a distance.








"Ako 'ho yung bagong driver niyo," I was too stunned to utter a single word which is why he continued on by saying, "Hindi 'ho ba nasabi sainyo?"








"Ang alin?"









Ngumiti ito nang malawak sa akin."Bumili 'ho si Madame Celine ng bagong bahay ninyo"







I guess my mom is really determined to keep me out from that horrifying place. "Can you please drive me to our old house?" I asked, getting ready to enter the backseat of the car.









"Ma'am, bawal daw 'ho kayong pumunta doon" tinignan ko ito at tinaasan ng dalawang kilay. "Wala ng nakatira doon, Ma'am. Umalis na 'ho lahat ng mga tao doon sa bahay niyo dati"









"What? sila Manang? si Erika?" I asked the driver which made him shook his head lightly.










"Umuwi na 'ho sila sa mga probinsya nila"











I was devastated when I heard the news, I still forced the driver to drive me back to our house even though my Mom personally ordered him not to. Tumigil ang kotse sa harapan ng bahay namin kaya agad akong lumabas at binuksan ang gate. The house is covered in silence, there's no other person here besides me and the driver who keeps begging me to come back inside the car.








"Ma'am, kailangan niyo na 'ho umuwi!"










"Sandali lang ako" I said before running towards the garden.










My eyes grew wide in shock when I saw that this side of our house is already unrecognizable because of the burned area. The fire spread so much that even the windows in the second floor shattered. This place is over all messy and quiet.









Gusto ko pa sanang pumasok sa loob pero naka-lock na ang mga pinto. No one lives here anymore. This house is already abandoned. Tahimik lang ako buong byahe papunta sa bago naming bahay. Wala akong ideya kung saan ba ang bago naming tirahan pero base sa dinadaanan namin ngayon ay mukhang malapit lang ito sa Elite University.
