The black limousine stopped in front of the hotel where Victor was staying. A man came down and slowly opened its door. An old man came down looking very seriously at the whole place. He motioned to his companion and he immediately nodded at him.
Pumasok ang dalawa sa elevator para tahakin ang hotel room ni Victor. Tahimik lamang ito habang patuloy na tumataas ang elevator. Nang makarating sila sa ika-sampung palapag, dahan-dahang bumukas ang pintuan noon at sila'y lumabas.
"¿Víctor sabía que íbamos a verlo?" tanong ng binata sa kanya.
Trans: Did Victor know we were going to see him?
"¿Por qué necesita saber más? Es solo el hijo de Laurier y no puede controlarme sobre lo que quiero hacer." seryosong sagot naman nito.
Trans: Why do you need to know more? He's just Laurier's son and he can't control me about what I want to do.
Bumuntong-hininga ang binata.
Tumigil sila sa harapan ng kwarto ni Victor. Tatlong beses pa itong kumatok bago pa man sila pagbuksan ng pinto. Bahagyang nagulat si Alejandro ng makita kung sino ang bumungad sa kanya.
"¿Qué estás haciendo aquí?" gulat na tanong nito sa dalawa.
Trans: What are you doing here?
The old man did not answer and immediately entered the room. He turned to Miguel who was also shocked to see him there.
"¿Dónde está Víctor?" tanong nito bago maupo sa single sofa.
Trans: Where is Victor?
The bedroom door opened and Victor came out. He stopped when he saw the old man.
"¿Qué estás haciendo aquí?" kunot-noong tanong ng binata at tuluyan ng lumabas ng kwarto.
Trans: What are you doing here?
"Encantado de verte de nuevo, Víctor. Fui a casa a las Filipinas para reemplazarte. Parece que tu padre te echa mucho de menos." nakangising tugon nito.
Trans: Nice to see you again, Victor. I went home to the Philippines to replace you. Your father seems to miss you very much.
Pinagkrus ng mata ang kanyang mga hita at pinagsakop naman niya ang kanyang mga daliri habang nakatuon ang dalawa niyang siko sa armrest ng kanyang inuupuan.
"¿Qué quieres decir?"
Trans: What do you mean?
The old man smirked at him and only looked at the three of them.
"¿Papá sabía que estabas aquí Sr. Roa?" muling tanong nito sa kanya.
Trans: Did dad know you were here Mr. Roa?
"¿Por qué necesita saber que estoy aquí en Filipinas?" nakangising tanong ng matanda sa binata.
Trans: Why does he even need to know that I am here in the Philippines?
"¿Sabes lo peligroso que es para ti ir aquí? ¿Viniste aquí sin el permiso del hombre superior a ti?" bahagyang naiinis na tanong ng binata rito.
