It's already sunday, and today is the day where lolo makoy will be transferred to libingan ng mga bayani.

Tito bong's family is already on their way, also Tita Imee and Tita Irene.

All of them were wearing traditional outfits, except belle.

She's wearing civilian clothes.

"Belle, remember your name" Tita Liza said

They are in the middle of the road.

"Louise Romualdez. Niece of Tito bong, but adopted child" Izabelle said straighfully

She was just crossing her arms while saying that.

"Anak, you need to remember that you will walk behind the maids para hindi ka masyadong makita" Tito bong added

Izabelle just smiled, and looked at the window

They also advised her to not talk with them all day, in case anything happened.

Sadly Izabelle is pretending to understand and just smile at them.

"Good Morning po sa inyo, you can now go in front po, nandun na po si former president sr." Their staff said

They have already arrived at fort andres bonifacio where libingan ng mga bayani is located.

As they all go down to their private vehicles, Izabelle already separates in her family.

"Hello po" Sandro said

"Hi again po" Vinny remarked

"Nice to see you again po" Simon Exclaimed

All of them greeted each other when the whole clan reunited.

Izabelle was at the very back with their other maids.

Few minutes later, they started to walk. It's their tradition to walk since it signifies their honorable role when someone dies.

"Belle, naiinitan ka ba?" Manang esther asked

"No, manang esther it's okay" I answered

We are walking without any umbrellas, but yeh its okay for me. Kaya ko ngang tiisin yung sakit, yung araw pa kaya. Haha

While I was listening to the french hum trumpet, I saw some people at the gate who were protesting again.

"Sir, kanina pa po ba sila dyaan?" I asked the officer whose on my side

"Opo maam" The officer said

I tried to gaze at my family in the front, and they were just focused on walking.

"Manang esther" I whispered

Manang esther turned her head and looked at me

"It's my time to clear these things" I said

"Anon-"

Manang Esther was about to continue her words, when I suddenly separated from them.

"Pst, belle!" Manang esther whispered

I didn't look back, and just proceeded to walk at the gate.

"Marcos Magnanakaw diktador... Marcos Magnanakaw diktador" They repeatedly saying

Before I went there, I had to make a phone call from someone else.

"Hello?" Someone on my phone said
