"Rielle!"
Trembling, I ran towards the forest upon hearing the loud call of my name, as if it desired to harm me.
Tagaktak ang aking pawis na nilingon ang nakabalot na itim na lalaki sa buong mukha nito maliban sa mata. Kumikinang ang punyal na hawak nito.
Tears streamed down my face as I fled, ignoring the wounds on my legs from bumping into small tree branches.
"Mommy! Daddy!" I cried out, sobbing.
"Rielle!" I heard his voice again, sending shivers of fear and unease down my spine.
In my frantic run, I ended up at the edge of a cliff. Below, there lay a deep ravine and the sea waters.
"Rielle!" His voice drew closer.
Frozen in fear, I stood rooted to the spot, awaiting the approaching voice, resembling a statue petrified with terror.
But in a sudden swipe of time, kasabay ng pag-ihip ng malakas na hangin ay bigla'ng humagip sa katawan ko at tuluyan ako nito'ng inihulog sa bangin kasabay ng katawan niya.
Bumulusok kami at bumagsak sa tubig. My blurry vision can still recognize that the person who saved me was a man.
Before my sight faded completely, I felt his tight embrace as we submerged underwater.
