I felt my blood run cold as the gun went off. Its sound silenced everyone as the bang reverberated on the whole house. My body tensed for a second as I processed what the fuck had happened. I felt everything slow down. It took me a few seconds to recover from the shock before I instinctively caught her in my arms before her body could fully lifelessly slump down to the cold marbled floor. 

I gently cupped her chin as I lay her flat on the floor while my other hand was putting pressure on the gunshot wound to her chest.

"Baby...keep your eyes open for me, okay?." I gently urged her to stay awake as I caress her cheek wiping away the tears that streamed down her face. My heart pounded hard against my chest, her eyes weakly fluttered open the glassiness of her stare is evident while blood trickled from her lips. I pressed on her wound harder to slow down her bleeding before looking around to yell orders to my man. 

My eyes flicked towards her when she cupped my cheek and whispered the four words...that made my senses halt, and opened a path for me towards a crossroad. 

"Please forgive my dad..." 

My jaw clenched.

Putangina, of all the things she wanted me to give her habang nagaaagaw buhay pa, ay yung isang bagay na halos buong buhay 'kong hindi kayang gawin because of the pain that it caused me...and my sister. 

I closed my eyes tightly as frustration filled my chest. 

I quickly picked her up, running towards the door amidst the chaos that was bustling in the living room. I don't even know how my mom reacted to what happened, and last I saw Georgina she was slumped unconsciously in Sidriel's arm. 

My jaw clenched tightly as I stepped over the dead guard's body, I held Luciana tighter to my chest as I steer clear away from the puddle of blood that was seeping from the guard laying on the floor. 

"Putangina!, tingnan niyo yung kapit bahay siguraduhin niyong mananahimik ang mga 'yan!." I angrily exclaimed as I saw two women run inside as soon as I carried Luciana out of the mansion. My teeth gritted even more as I felt her blood-soaked through my pants. I didn't even fucking bother to get a shirt!. I just knew at that moment that her life was my priority. 

Armed guards rushed inside the SUV after I went in. "Someone give me a fucking phone!." sigaw 'ko habang kalong si Luciana na walang malay. My heart is beating erratically as her head lolled lifelessly in my arms. 

Mabilis naman akong naabutan ng cellphone. I quickly dialled Lakan to set up the surgical room in the warehouse, and the emergency medical team to be on stand.
