Chapter 43
Bench POV

I'm on my way to our house. I received a call from Mommy. She is furious because of Burn.

"Bench, where are you?"

"I'm on my way home. Why?"

"Can you talk to your brother. I wanted you to tell him that i don't want to see him with that woman again."

"What happened again?"

"He's here in the house drunk."

"What happened to him? Why did he drink daw?"

"He got himself drunk because he screw it up with Erica. Honestly Bench what happened to your brother?"

"He's just confused Mom. Let me talk to him. Im on my way home."

"Well talk to him now because I don't know what I can do to your brother. Your Dad is also worried you know what happened if Burn have a depression. Haaay sinasabi ko na nga ba ayoko talaga mag kita sila ni Ellena. Bench do something. I'm scared for your brother's health."

"Okay Mom. I'll talk to him. I'm almost there."

God please, not again. Burn had a depression when he found out that Ellena cheated on him. I don't know how he cope up with depression. Until one day he told me everything.

Flash back

I had to fly to America that time because of what we've heard from my dad's friend. Burn is having a depression. When I came to his apartment I saw him in the sofa. Super thin. I can almost see his bones. His arms are thin. He can't eat anything without puking it out. The doctor says his stomach is used to be empty thats why he can only take a few amounts at a time. He's already coping with the depression when I went there.

"Kuya, I learn about what Ellena have done to me. He cheated on me. She doesn't even love, she just use me."

"Bro, keep it together. We're here for you Bro, we are your family. I heard your slowly coping up with the depression. How do you manage that."

"I saw E's emails. She been emailing me ever since I left the Philippines."

He then show me all of Erica's email.
