"Remary...i'm happy that you're here." Masayang sambit ng matanda sa kaniya. Masaya itong nakabalik na siya.
"Me, too, uncle. How are you?"
"Well, i'm doing great, how about you? Did you finished it?"
Isang marahang pagtango lang ginawa niya saka muling ngumiti.
"I'm proud of you, hija. I know you're the best, you made me proud again." Yakap pa nito sa kaniya at hinalikan siya sa noo.
"The thing is...uncle, about our deal, can i...can we..."
Nag-iba ang mukha nito, tila sumeryoso. "You mean that guy?" si Lemuel ang tinutukoy niya.
"Yes, uncle."
"Oh, forget about him. He is just using you. I know you won't believe me, but i found out that he wanted to escape here because he stole a sum of money from my account. I caught him recently, that doucebag!" galit na sambit nito sa kaniya. Kung hindi siya nagkakamali, Remary told her last time that they are planning to escape this place with her share, ipinagkatiwala nito ang pera kay Lemuel para hindi siya mahalata ng uncle nila, not knowing that Lemuel can be caught as the thief.
Naawa tuloy siya sa binata that time.
"You're fine?" natanong nito sa kaniya, bigla kasi siyang natahimik.
"Uncle, i need to tell you something..."
"Hmm? Yes?" sumigla ulit ang mukha nito.
"It's about your business."
Sumeryoso ito saka naupo sa kaniyang upuan. "Is it a good thing or not?" tanong pabalik nito sa kaniya.
"Theres....something i want to tell you, uncle. I decide to go on my own this time. I need to have my own life. And in connection of it, i want to give you all my shares, my inheritance, and all this company you're taking care of, the power and your connections are safe with me, just let me go. Set me free." Pakiusap ni Romary dito. Sumeryoso ang mukha nito na parang hindi ito makapaniwala sa naririnig.
"You know what? I've heard this thing before from your twin, that bitch." Galit na sambit nito.
"Uncle...she's gone." Pagdidiin na sambit nito.
"Really? Where's the proof then?" giit nito sa kaniya.
"W-what proof?" nagtatakang tanong niya, wala sa pinag-usapan nila ni Remary ang sinasabi nito. Hindi niya alam kung ano ang gusto nito. Hindi siya agad nakapagsalita.
"Remary? Are you listening?" Ginapangan siya ng kaba.
"Where is the proof? I told you that you must sent me your twin. You must sent me your twin..."
Sa mga narinig niya mula sa matanda ay tila nanghihina ang tuhod niya, hindi ganito ang plano nila, hindi ito ang napag-usapan. Kailangan niyang ma-hack ang sistema nito, dapat siyang makapasok sa huling palapag.
Tila kakapusin siya ng hininga sa oras na iyon dahil sa kaba, mabuti na lang at may upuan siyang nahawakan para hindi siya tuluyang matumba.
"Uncle, i need to list down the things i've got in Romary's flat. I checked something that can help you."
Nagningning ang mata ng matanda. "W-what is it? Remary?"
"I need your computer."
"Oh, it's up there." Turo pa nito sa huling palapag.
"Can i have it?" kabadong tanong niya. Hindi agad ito sumagot.
"Sure. Come with me." Sabi pa nito saka naglakad patungo sa elevator. Nang makaharap nila ang elevator ay may code itong dapat ilagay bago mabuksan. Palihim na nag-obserba si Romary sa oras na iyon.
