"B-before that, um, Farah, I need to tell you something..." Trixie said, fidgeting her hands, "Farah I'm so sorry. Kasabwat ako ni Samuel." She cried.
Para akong binuhusan ng malamig na tubig sa kaniyang sinabi. Hindi ko alam ang dapat kong sabihin, o isipin. Kahit kailanman ay hindi ko aakalain na gaganituhin ako ni Trixie.
"B-but h-he threatened me, I swear! When he saw that I was the only one approaching you, he forced me to work with him," she sobbed, "Papatayin niya daw pamilya ko kapag hindi ko siya tutulungan. All I did was spy on you." She continued.
"So our so called friendship was a lie?"
Umiling siya, pero hindi ko na alam kong maniniwala pa ba ako.
"I-I was the one who helped Denzel to find you both since yung private investigator niya ay wala ng alam kung saan kayo and I'm the last piece of--"
"Trixie you lied to me!" Kahit wala pa akong lakas ay sinampal ko siya, she cried harder, "Trixie, you could just tell the police of what happened and where I am! You knew this whole god damn time! Alam mo ba kung anong nangyare sa loob ng dalawang week na nandon ako? Trixie I was raped all God damn day by the motherf*cker! I'm not even sure how many days have passed by, while I was there I was dying. I was dying, Trix-" Natigol ako sa pagsasalita dahil bigla akong nahilo.
She was about to help me but I stopped her, "Don't touch me you liar. Go to hell." Mas lalo pa siyang umiyak at pa ulit ulit na nag sosorry.
Hilong hilo ako, and the next thing I knew, nawalan ulit ako ng malay.

Denzel Elbanbuena's point of view
Nagulat ako ng madatnan kong nakahiga sa sahig si Farah, may doctor na paparating kasama si Trixie.
Nung pumasok na sila ay naghintay lang ako sa labas. Kumakabog ang dibdib.
"Denzel, she was so mad..." Umiiyak na sabi ni Trixie, "She... she's so mad...at m-me.." She stuttered. I sighed and hugged her as a comfort.
"She will understand." Ani ko,"Give her time okay? Unstable pa siya ngayon. Let her have space." I added and she just nodded.
Ilang minuto pa ay lumabas ang doctor kaya agad namin itong nilapitan.
"I'm sorry." Kumabog ng malakas ang dibdib ko sa unang salita ng doctor, "Nakunan po yung pasyente due to too much stress, and not eating healthy. I'm sorry for your loss." He sighed at napaawang ang aking labi.
Buntis si Farah?
"Trixie buntis siya?" I asked, as if not hearing it from the doctor is not enough. I was surprised, guilty, angry- I'm having mox emotions.
"O-oo..pero gusto din namang ipa abort ni Farah yung bata." She answered.
"That's good." I said.
"Pero wala namang kasalanan yung bata." She stated.
"Trixie, you saw how horrified Farah is when she found out she was pregnant right? I can imagine that look."
"But still-"
"Trixie." Pigil ko sa kaniyang sasabihin, "It's her body, her choice kung gusto niya man ipa abort. Do you want the child to get born only to be hated by their own mother?" Tanong ko sakaniya ngunit wala siyang masagot, "Farah was not ready to raise a child, especially when it's the result of Samuel's bastardness. Maawa ka kay Safahara at hindi sa bata."
"P-pero what if magbago ang isip ni -"
"Trixie!" Ngayon ay sinigawan ko na ito, "Wake up! It doesn't matter, nakunan na siya. Kung hindi man iyon nangyare, akala mo ba ay magiging masaya si Farah habang pinapalaki ang bunga ng trauma niya? It's not the time to be a pro-life Trix. She's not ready, she's unstable. Wag kang selfish, hindi ikaw yung nahihirapan."
She went really silent after that.
Sumasakit na ang ulo ko. I still have to send Samuel back to France for therapy and rehabilitation mamaya because nandon ang bago netong doctor na mag hahandle sa kaniya.
"Let's go inside." I broke off the silence at pumasok ulit sa kwarto ni Safahara.
Nung pumasok kami, nakita naming may malay na pala si Farah. Nakatingin lang ito sa labas ng bintana ng hospital.
"Callie..." Her eyes widened when she heard her second name being called.
That's right, no one knew or called her Callie. There's only one person who will call her that.
Dahan dahan siyang lumingon and when she saw me I saw the scared expression for a split second. Maybe she thought I was Samuel.
I hate that.
"Tan?" She called, eyes full of emotion. Tumango ako, "Yes it's me." Her eyes face is a mess, "Do you...remember?" I smiled.
Napaiyak muli siya.
"Magkakilala kayo?" Bulong ni Trixie sa akin.
"Ex-fiancè." I said.
Bumilog ang mga mata ni Trixie matapos kong sabihin ang mga kataga sa kaniya.
"Huh? Ex-fianceé? What? How?" Her questions didn't end there. Kita ko ang sobrang pagkalito ng kaniyang mukha.
"It's a long story." Sabi ko at nilapitan si Callie. I hugged her while she's just covering her face habang umiiyak.
"P-pero diba magkapareha kayo ng mukha ni Sam-"
I put my index finger in the middle of my lips as a sign for her to shut up. Agad niya naman itong naintindihan.
"You're a celebrity but you're good at hiding your privacy." Natatawa kong ani kay Callie habang hinahagod ang kaniyang likod.
"B-bakit kayo m-magkamukha?" Hindi parin siya natatahan sa kaniyang pag iyak.
"Kasi we have the same parents?" I joked, hoping that it will cheer her up.
"T-tangina mo." Iyak ulit neto.
I chuckled and kissed her head.
Callie, kung alam mo lang sana noong una palang. Hindi ka sana magkakaganito. I'm such a piece of trash. I shouldn't be holding you like this, I should be begging for your forgiveness. Hindi kita na protektahan sa sarili kong kapatid. Kung may magagawa lang sana ako para hindi ka na masaktan ng ganito, gagawin ko.
"Iyak ka lang dyan, nandito lang ako." I said gently and continued rubbing her back.
"Iiyak mo lang yan hanggang gumaan ang pakiramdam mo, hindi kita bibitawan hangga't hindi ka titigil."
