Risa's POV
Ever since Risa left Leni, she has not been able to continue her studies, due to the lack of money and her family's problems. Risa's OFW father never came back to them, rumor has it that he has another family in another country. Because her mother is too old to work, she's the only one who works for her family.
In order to help her family, Risa entered various jobs. But recently the restaurant where she is currently working closed down, she doesn't know where else to get money to help with their household expenses. Especially now because her sister Pia is in the hospital due to cancer. She applied to different companies, but none of them accepted her.
The law firm Loren was referring to, called her for an interview. Risa prepared for the interview because she needed the job immediately.

Her interview is tomorrow already, she can't sleep yet because she's still thinking about her sister Pia. "Lord, ibigay mo na sakin to' please. Kailangan ko na talaga ng trabaho para kay Pia." she said to herself while crying.
Usually ganito talaga sya, iiyak lang kapag mag-isa o walang nakakakita sakanya. She knows she needs to be strong especially for her sister.
She still couldn't sleep so she called her mother who was watching over Pia at the hospital.
"Ma, kamusta po kayo dyan?" Risa said
"Okay naman nak, si Pia natutulog na, ikaw kamusta ka dyan sa bahay?"
"Okay lang din naman po, may interview po ako bukas sa isang law firm." she said while sniffing.
"Ah ganun ba, sya nga pala nak, may mga bagaong gamot si Pia na kailangang bilhin. Sabi rin ng doctor na kailangan na sya maoperahan sa susunod na buwan kaya sana makahanap ka na ng trabaho." her mother told her.
She just sighed and said, "Sige po ma, dadaan po ako dyan bukas pagkatapos ng interview ko para bilhin yung mga gamot ni Pia."
"Nak pasensya ka na ha, alam kong nahihirapan kana." her mother said.
"Okay lang po yun ma, magpahinga narin po kayo." she said then ended the call.
Risa put down her phone and cried, she always says that she is okay but the truth is she is very tired and exhausted, she doesn't even have time for herself anymore.
She fell asleep after a while, maybe because of crying.
