Michelle rode her Mercedes Maybach and drove it to the place where that person had her child. Alam na alam niya ang lugar kung saan dinala ng kidnapper ang kaniyang anak. She lived there for four years, kung kaya't nagtataka siya kung bakit doon siya pinapupunta ng taong nag-text sa kaniya.
Kampante si Michelle masusundan siya ni Jorge and his team dahil lahat ng sasakyan nila ay may GPS tracker. Kinapa niya ang baril na nasa holster, mataktika niyang itinago ito sa suot na blazer.
Michelle parked her car in the open driveway. She and Zenith planned it that way for their home. Yes. The address sent to was where she and Zenith used to live when they were married.
She sold that house before, and the proceeds were given to her by Zenith in full. Pero bakit dito sa bahay na ito?
"Hello! Tao po!" ani Michelle while walking towards the main door. The lawn and garden were well-kept. Maaari siyang makasuhan ng trespassing. She rang the doorbell, but no one answered.
Binuksan ni Michelle ang pinto. Nagulat siya nang makita ang malaking wedding photo nila ni Zenith, but her side was defaced and painted in black. Upon seeing it, it gave her the creeps and goosebumps.
Natatakot man, Michelle walked towards the living room.
"Hello! Anybody here?" Michelle shouted again.
"Ma!" anang boses ng isang bata.
Mabilis na tinungo ni Michelle ang lanai. There she saw Zandro and Adam, each of them was tied in a chair, and Adam was now being gagged in his mouth!
"Era!" agaw niya sa atensyon nito. Michelle almost did not breathe when Era faced her.
"Well, well, nandito na ang babaeng lubos na pinagpala." Era smirked at Michelle.
Michelle was very worried about the children, who are now gagged, tied, and placed very near the pool. Kaunting pagkakamali, maaaring malunod ang mga bata. Her heart was breaking seeing those innocent children crying, and fear was imminent on their faces.
Michelle instantly knew Era was not in a good place upon seeing her. From the look on her face, Michelle noticed that she might have snapped or something. Tila wala ito sa sariling katinuan. Kung kaya nga pinakitunguhan niya ito nang maayos when they met each other at their children's playschool.
One of the reasons Michelle pushed for Zenith to marry Era was her mental vulnerability, plus the fact that Zandro would need him. She wanted Zandro to grow up in a loving family, since Zenith used to love Era. Hindi na ito mahihirapan pang mahalin ulit ang babae.
Sa ngayon, gusto na niyang magsisi sa desisyon. Maaaring hindi ito naging mabuting desisyon para sa mga bata, lalo na para kay Era.
She needed to act swiftly and carefully, especially seeing Era's state now.
"Era, please leave the kids out of these, wala silang kinalaman," pagsusumamo niya kay Era na nakangiti ngayon, but her eyes were so blank. It was emotionless. She kept her composure while awfully worried.
Era was rocking Zandro's chair. Michelle was assessing the distance between the kids, how fast she could swim to save the children if Era wouldn't shoot her?
"Leave the kids out of this, nyeah, nyeah, nyeah." Era made a face like a kid.
Itinutok ulit nito ang baril sa kaniya.
"Ikaw ang dahilan kung bakit hindi ako magawang mahalin ni Zenith! Kung noon ko pa sana ginawa ito, he could've put his attention to me and our children!"
The smiling face of Era had tears all over it.
"Itong batang ito? He is just my safety net. Ngayon, wala na siyang pakinabang."
