In this short lived happiness
I realized every moment is precious.
Pain is just temporary,
But I hope you'll forgive me.

Zeus' POV

"What do you mean na nahuli? What happened?" I asked Astrid crossing my arms.

"Chill Zeus." Severine whispered to me.

"I want to know. Tell me exactly what happened." I firmly ordered Astrid.

I can't believe this happened!

Fuck!

'Yun na nga Zeus... Sinulong nina Reina, Trez, at Den ang kuta nina Francis para sana kumuha ng impormasyon o kahit na anong pwede nating ipanlaban sa kanila. Yun nga lang, nahuli sila Reina at gustong ipampalit nina Francis si Iris para sa buhay ng tatlo.'

Fuck! Just fuck!

"You know I won't bargain my wife to those assholes." I declared through my gritted teeth.

'Alam ko. Hindi ko rin naman gustong ipalit si Iris, kahit na gusto kong isalba yung tatlo. Kaya nag humihingi ako ng tulong.... o kahit payo man lang.... kasi feeling ko may gagawin si Iris na hindi magugustuhan nating lahat.' Astrid said that made my head snap towards the phone's direction.

"What do you mean?" Ashley asked.

It seems I am not the only one who is curious and worried.

'Sa tingin ko kasi, gagawin talaga ni Iris yung gusto nila Francis.' Astrid answered.

My heart sank to the ground.

I can't let my wife do that! I can't let Iris be in danger.

"We're coming to you now. Don't go anywhere." I said and ended the call.

"Pack everything up. We're all leaving." I anounced to everyone.

I think they all heard me because everyone acted out immediately packing our things up.

This is not a part of our plan, but we don't have any other choices. We just have to make another plan now.

I sat down on my chair and a framed picture of Iris holding our son caught my sight.

I took a deep breath.

Iris, please don't do anything stupid until I get to you.

It was almost dark when we arrived at the safehouse where Iris, Reize and the others were at.

I immediately went inside the house and  looked for my wife when we arrived. I saw no one and was just about to go outside when I heard hurried steps from the second floor. I oooked up and saw Iris who is holding our son.

"Zeli Zeli!!!" Iris exclaimed with that big beautiful smile of hers.

I instantly teared up and smiled at her.

Oh how I terribly missed my woman.

"Babab!!!" a small voice shouted and my smile grew wider.

I can't believe I am finally able to see my family.

My OWN family.

"Come here." I said.

Iris ran towards the stairs and my heart almost jumped out of my chest when she took two steps at a time on the stairs. She then proceeded to run towards me and hugged me tightly.

"Mamambubabab." my son grumbled between us.

"Namiss kita ng sobra! Sobrang sobra!!!" Iris said and planted kisses on my both of my cheeks.
