Colet's Pov
Nakatingin lang kami kay Mikha na wala nang choice kundi sabihin kay Maloi kung ano'ng nangyari sa pisngi niya.
"Maloi, kasalanan ko kung bakit nangyari 'yon kay Mikha," Aiah said.
"Aiah, 'wag mo sisihin sarili mo. I'm just upset that Mikha didn't tell me she got hurt—two times—especially by Gelo," Maloi said.
Tumingin si Maloi sa amin ni Jho. Lagot, baka kami mapagbuntungan nito.
"Colet, anong ginagawa niyo dito?" Maloi asked.
"Namiss lang namin si Mikha kaya naisipan naming bisitahin siya," I said.
"Paalis na rin pala kami," Jho said.
"Tama si Jho. Pagaling ka, Mikhs," I said.
Jho and I quickly went out of Mikha's condo. We went to the coffee shop where Gwen was waiting for us.
"Tagal niyo. Nasaan si Mikha?" Gwen asked.
"She's stuck with Maloi and Aiah," I said.
Nagkuwento kami kay Gwen. Sinabi ko na rin kung bakit hindi namin kasama si Mikha.
"Mikhaela Lim has grown up," Gwen said while pinching my shoulder.
"Aray naman, Gwen!" I said.
"Ano'ng maitutulong natin kay Mikha?" Gwen asked.
"Wala tayong gagawin. Just let fate do its job," Jho said.
"Huh?" Gwen and I said.
"I guess it's time to tell you two something about Aiah," Jho said.
"About Aiah?" I asked.
"Aiah not only likes boys, but also girls," Jho said.
"Ano?!" Gwen and I said.
"Shhh, lakas ng boses niyo," Jho said.
"Kailan pa?" Gwen asked.
"Noong bata pa kami. Alam din ni Maloi, Sheena, at Stacey," Jho said.
"If that's the situation, ibig sabihin Aiah already liked Mikha before," I said.
"Hindi namin sure ni Stacey. Ramdam lang namin na baka may chance na dati pa, pero hindi lang napapansin ni Aiah sa sarili niya. Remember the sunflower crochet keychain?" Jho said.
"Oo, the keychain on Mikha's condo key—binigay 'yon ni Aiah during high school Valentine's Day," Gwen said.
"That was a token of appreciation. Mikha was the only person Aiah gave a token to—dahil sa tulip and golden retriever keychain," Jho said.
"It looks like fate was always on Mikha's side. Hindi lang niya nahalata," Gwen said.
"Well, fate has given her another chance again. And this time, she's risking it—without even noticing that she's already making her moves," I said.
"For now, don't do anything to help Mikha. And don't say anything about what I told you about Aiah," Jho said.
Aiah's Pov
"Familiar ang apelyido niya," I said.
I'm now in my office, having a meeting with Maki and Maloi's team through video call.
"Yes, it is. Ka-batch niyo ang anak niya during high school," Maki said.
"Denise Julia Lee. I remember her. Hindi halata na anak siya ng drug lord," Maloi said.
"We have to get more evidence. Kulang pa ang mga hawak natin," I said.
"We will, but we have to be careful," Maki said.
