"Wilma! Lius get in, don't go out!" I heard Dad shout.

"Daddy! M-Mom..." I cried, terrified because armed men suddenly entered our house. I heard gunshots outside earlier, so I came out of my room.

But I was shocked by what I saw. The armed men were holding Mom, and I couldn't understand what was happening. All I knew was that Dad was shouting for me to go back inside. Mom was pregnant with my little brother, and despite Dad's efforts to get me back inside, I still went out.

There, I witnessed the horrifying scene. They shot my Dad and abducted my Mom. They quickly left, not noticing me. As soon as they were out of sight, I rushed to Dad, crying and trying to wake him up.

"D-Daddy...p-please d-dad w-wake up..."
Nanginingig ako sa takot dahil maraming dugo ang nakikita ko sa sahig at sa katawan niya.

"L-Lius, call y-your uncle Fred, n-now."

I don't know what to do, basta't sinunod ko ang sinabi niya. I called uncle Fred and I told him everything happened. Pagbalik ko wala ng malay si daddy. Napalakas ang pag-iyak ko at humingi narin ako ng tulong sa kapitbahay pero walang tao. Hanggang sa may narinig akong huni ng ambulance.

I saw Uncle Fred and they took Dad to the hospital. It's been two days, and I'm still so scared, fearing that Dad might not wake up.

"Hey Lius, you have to eat. Your dad will be fine, hahanapin ko kung sino ang may gawa ng lahat ng ito. I will also find your mom. Come on, Zanzea needs you. Your sibling needs you."

I was sipping my coffee while gazing at someone swimming in the pool, visible from the veranda on the second floor of the house. She has grown into a beautiful and alluring lady. Anyone, even myself, would turn to look at her. I can't deny it, she looks like a goddess. Gumalaw ang panga ko nang ibaba ko ang isang kamay ko at ipinatong ito sa steel drill at nananatiling nakatitig sa kaniya na lumalangoy sa pool.

I still can't forget those events. I was only eight years old when armed men stormed our house. They shot my dad and abducted my mom. Si uncle Fred ang nag-alaga sa'min ng two years old kong kapatid, hanggang sa makarecover ako sa trauma na 'yon.

Naputulan ng isang paa si dad dahil sa pagkabaril sa kanya, I thought hindi na siya makakaligtas no'ng mga araw na 'yon. Kaya artificial leg nalang ngayon ang sumusuporta sa kaliwang binti niya. Hindi ko pa makakalimutan ang sinabi ni uncle Fred kay dad noon, nakita nila ang bangkay ni mom sa loob sa isang kakahuyan at nakapaloob ito sa isang sako.

I still can't forget how Dad screamed because of what he heard from Uncle. I couldn't believe that no tears came out from my eyes; instead, I just clenched my fists. At the age of eight, I was filled with anger and resentment. Wala akong gustong gawin kundi ang maghiganti. Alam ni Dad kung sino ang may pakana ng lahat ng 'yon, ang pamilyang natalo sa isang kaso at nakulong ang kapatid nito sa kasong murder.

Dad was a prosecutor at that time. As I grew up, I learned the reason why the Deeliz family targeted him. It was because they asked Dad to dismiss their sibling's case for a sum of Ten Million. However, Dad didn't obey them, which is why he did that to our family.

Those motherf–ckers! Hinding-hindi ko sila mapapatawad, they just not took my mom's life kundi pati narin ang buhay ng kapatid kong dinadala ni mommy noon. Zanzea was only two years old at that time, at natutulog siya sa room ko nang mangyari 'yon. That's why I'm so f–cking possessive when it comes to my sister. Hindi ako papayag na may gagalaw pa ulit sa pamilya ko.

I will f–cking destroy their lives! I swear, gagawin ko ang plano namin ni dad noon pa. Buti nga sa t–nginang governor Deeliz na 'yon at nawalan rin siya ng pinakamamahal niyang bunsong anak. He deserved it!
