JAMMY
I clicked the call button on my phone as tito Melvin's name flashed on the screen. “Hello, tito? How are you?” pangangamusta ko matapos nitong sagutin ang tawag.
“Oh, Jammy. I'm fine here. How are you too?” masiglang boses nitong tugon. “Siya nga pala, next month, uuwi ang lolo mo riyan. Sabi niya, may mahalaga daw siyang gagawin. Pero hindi niya sinabi kung ano.”
“T-talaga, tito?” nabago ang expresyon sa'king mukha nang sabihin iyon.
Nakakagulat malaman na tila bumabalik na sa dati si lolo. If he will go back here, it must be about his businesses. Especially, it is associated with the M&A International. “Maiba ako, tito, may nabanggit ba sa'yo si lolo tungkol sakin?”
Sandaling tumahimik nang hindi agad sumagot ang nasa kabilang linya.
“W-wala, naman. Tungkol lang naman lagi sa company businesses at partnership ang napag-uusapan namin ng lolo mo. Bat mo nga pala natanong, Jammy?” tugon nito.
“I think, sinusubukan akong protektahan ni lolo mula sa kung ano. I mean… may nabanggit sa'kin si lolo na mas ligtas daw ako 'pag narito ako sa campus kesa manatili sa bahay. That's weird, and I assumed na may alam ka rito. Please, tito, if ever may mabanggit sa'yo si lolo in regards of this matter, let me know. Please?” Paliwanag ko rito.
“Y-yeah! Of course,” sagot naman ng huli sa'kin. After that, nagpaalam na siya at pinatay na ang call.

ANDY
Kanina pa 'ko nagpapabalik-balik sa sala, palakad-lakad pero hindi parin sumasagot sa tawag si dad. Kahit kailan talaga ay ang hirap niyang makausap. Lagi na lang si lolo at ang mana ang nasa utak nito. Goodness!
“H-hello, dad!” mabilis kong turan nang sa wakas ay sumagot na 'to sa tawag 'ko. “Finally!” I said before I let out a heavy sigh.
“Anong problema?” tanong nito sa'kin.
“Dad! I need to go back to my previous school! Delikado ang buhay ko rito. There were villains na nakakalat sa campus. Hindi ko pinangarap ipanganak para lang mamatay, noh!” mapagprotesta kong sumbong.
