Thanks for reading!

FAUNA hid her pain. The nervous feeling consumed her, making her insides wrecked. Nanginginig ang kanyang mga tuhod habang nakayukong hinihintay na lumabas ang kanyang kapatid sa ospital room kung saan pinapahinga si Dash.

She didn't know what had happened. She was just notified about the commotion happened. Nagpahanda siya ng healthy snack for the afternoon for her brother and Dash.

Then, her father called telling her that she would be an important figure in her Lolo's birthday together with the company's founding anniversary.

She was informed that Feliciano Candreva would name his heiress or his heir. They would announced the immediate heir after his father.

Baka nandito rin ang kapatid niya dahil doon. Fabiz would probably tell her that he would refuse to be part of it.

Gusto niyang magtanong sa kanyang ama kung pinapahalagahan ba ng mga ito ang pagtatago sa kanyang tunay na pagkatao? Was hiding their secret was an important part of the succession? Kahit masama ang pagtatago ng kasinungalingan, baka may plano ang kanyang mga magulang sa pagbibigay alam sa tunay niyang pagkatao.

She wanted to confront them so badly. Ayaw niyang kay Sofia manggaling ang balita na hindi siya kabilang sa mga Candreva at Macapagal. She wanted her parents to tell her Lolo that. Because she deserved the truth as well as their family.

No matter how painful that is. Dinadala niya ito sa loob ng ilang taon.

Hinilamos niya ang kanyang mukha. She was frustrated, afraid once again. Nilabanan niya ang kanyang takot kaya nangyari ang lahat ng mga nangyari sa kanila ni Dash ngayon.

Pero kung pinilit pa rin niya ang kanyang sarili na maging duwag, she would be suffocated with this pain.

Hindi siya pumasok kasi nalaman din niyang nandito si Emerald at ang pinsan ni Dash na Charles ang pangalan. Tulala niyang inisip ang maaaring mangyari.

Emerald was a big part of Dash's life and she could be a big help to reclaim his memories.

Kapag nalaman nito ang totoong nangyari.

Fauna breathed because the air was choking her. Her tears blocked her throat. Lone tear fell from her eyes.

She breathed once again, this time to gain more confidence and to keep calm.

First, she would confront her parents about her true identity. And she would start there in mending all her mistakes.

Second, she would ask for forgiveness.

Pinahid niya ang kanyang luha saka tumayo na kung saan may dumating na isang bulto. When she looked up, it was Sofia.

Hindi nagulat si Fauna. To think that her cousin and Emerald was here, she already expected Sofia with her anger caped behind her.

"I expected so much from you, Fauna. To keep your promise," she sighed irritably. "And you have kept your promise actually. Though, it wasn't a nice thing to view. Iyong pinagsisigawan mo 'yong kapatid ko. Brutally rude. Painful hatred. Pero mas nakakabuti sa kanya na mailayo sa'yo. We have viewed the CCTV and congratulations for your brilliant acting."

"Fuck you," she blurted with seething anger. Iyong nanginginig iyong ngipin niya sa galit. She didn't like sarcasms.

"You're not the one my family wants, our family needs. Kapag nalaman nilang hindi ka naman talaga dugong mayaman, pipilitin nilang ilayo kayong dalawa. Kung mangyayari 'yon, pipilitin din ng kapatid ko na kunin ka at ipaglaban ka. Kapag nangyari 'yon, both of you will be killed by our bullshit of a father. I'm not concerned of you. Mas proprotektahan ko ang kapatid ko, so I am sorry but I think you need to stay away. Really stay away, Fauna."
