In the morning of the operation, naka abang na sa labas sila Bea, Anton and Mozzy.

"Thirdy, I'm sorry you have to do this for me."

"You don't have to say that, Ma. I'm your son after all."

Bea went forward and held Thirdy's hand as soon as Mozzy moved.

"Bakit ang putla mo, hindi ka ba nakatulog ng maayos kagabi?" Thirdy asked her. "Magpahinga ka mamaya ha, dala mo ba phone ko?"

Bea showed him his phone.


A few hours after the operation, nag update and doctor sa kanila. Thirdy just needs to recuperate while they still need to wait for any reaction from their father.

Bea was beside Thirdy nang magising sya.

"Huwag ka gumalaw, you need to rest." Bilin ni Bea as soon as Thirdy opened his eyes.

"Is he alright?" Thirdy asked. She knows kung sino tinutukoy nya.

Bea nodded.

"I have the best husband in the world." 

"That's because I have the best wife. You have taught me so much and has given me the greatest happiness."

"Thirds, if just in case, mapagisipan ng Mama mo and Daddy mo to stay together, okay lang ba sayo?"

"Hayaan natin tadhana ang magdesisyon at magdala sa kanila kung saan dapat. They will be together if they are destined to be, katulad natin."


Papunta naman si Anton sa kwarto ng Daddy nya, inabutan nya si Mozzy na nakabantay.

"Bakit andito ka pa?" He asked Mozzy.

"Hindi pa nagigising Daddy mo pero rude ka na sa akin. And besides, ama sya ng anak ko, may problema ba? Kung ako sayo, aayos ako ng ugali. Dahil okay na ang Daddy mo at ang anak ko merging our companies won't be impossible, baka mawalan ka pa."

"Everything changes. Baka bago mangyari yang sinasabi mo, bumagsak na ung negosyo nyo."

"Huwag na huwag mo papangarapin ang pagbagsak ng Ravena group, hindi mo din kaya gawin yan, you're too weak."

"Watch and learn then." Babala ni Anton.

"Wala ka utang na loob! Magpasalamat ka at Thirdy helped your father!"

"Ikaw ang dahilan bakit nawala ang Mom ko, unti unti kong ibabalik sayo ang sakit! Kung sinalba man ni Thirdy ang buhay ng tatay ko, interest pa lang un! You still have to repay the capital. Tingnan mo kung paano ko kukunin sa anak mo lahat, paunti unti."

"Ano ang plano nyo ni Bea?"

"Wait and see." Anton said as he left the room.


A few days after, nagpunta si Anton sa bahay nila Mozzy. Pinagbuksan sya ng isa sa mga katiwala sa bahay.

"Anon ginagawa mo dito?" He asked Anton.

"Andyan ba si Aston, tinawagan nya kasi ako gusto daw nya mapunta sa amusement park." Anton replied.

A few minutes more at dumating naman si Bea at dali daling bumaba ng taxi when she recognized the car outside the house.

"Anton, bakit ka andito?"

"Aston called me, gusto daw nya tayo mapunta sa amusement park."

The little boy emerged from inside and welcomed them excitedly.

"Aston, are you ready to go to the amusement park?" Anton asked him.

"Yes, Tito Anton, let's go Mama."

"Sasamahan ko muna si Aston, pakisabi kay Mrs. Ravena." Bilin ni Bea sa katiwala.

Tumango ang katiwala and made a phone call.

K: Papunta sila amusement park, ngayon na.


After nila sa park, sabay sabay silang tatlo na nagpunta sa unit ni Anton.

"Dito lang kayo and I will cook our food." Anton said.

"I'll help you." Bea offered.

"Hindi na, samahan mo na lang si Aston dito and drink this coffee I made for you. Eto ung juice ni Aston."

He was almost done cooking nang marinig nya si Aston calling for his mom, Bea was already asleep at the couch at hindi magising. 

"Let your Mama sleep, Aston, baka napagod looking after your dad. Ihahatid na kita para hindi mag aalala Lola mo."

"But what about my Mama po?"

"Uuwi din yan mamaya pag gising nya. For now, I want you to be a good boy, okay? Halika hahatid na kita."


Pabukas ng pinto ng katiwala sa bahay ni Mozzy, agad hinanap si Bea?

"Asan po si Miss Bea?"

"Nasa unit ko nagpapahinga." Sagot ni Anton.

"Bye po Tito Anton."

"Pasok ka na, Aston, aalis na ako.


Thirdy has been trying to call Bea pero walang sumasagot. He was getting worried kaya tumawag sya sa bahay.

T: Aston.

A: Papa!

T: How was your day, anak?

A: Binilihan po ako ni Tito Anton ng toy car.

T: Kasama mo ba sya with your Mama kanina?

A: Opo.

T: Where's your Mama?

A: Natutulog po. Dapat po magkasama kami but she wouldn't wake up kaya po hinatid ako ni Uncle Anton.

A: Papa? Papa? Can you hear me po?

Thirdy's thoughts were so full, hindi nya alam how to interpret lahat ng sinabi ni Aston.
