Cielo was too occupied on lifting weights when her phone buzzes a couple of times. She's currently at the gym on their house, exercising and taking a breather from all the stress she's been going through, a couple of these days now. She set down the small barbell and walk towards where her phone is.

himala nag iingay gc namin nila Gab at Morgana’ Cielo thought to herself when their group chat popped up on the notification panel of her lock screen.

Cielo put down her phone and went back lifting weights again until she's satisfied. Sunday is reserved for her Fitness day, unless she has some business work-related to attend to. It's her life and her career alone.

She's been thinking back to the moment that her sister confesses that after all this years she has still feelings for Maki. Cielo is reconsidering if she want to continue the marriage proposal with Maki. Kahit na wala pa naman siyang natatanggap na sagot galing sa dalaga, na payag ito sa kaniyang plano.

Sa kabilang dako naman, a man is sitting on his office swivel chair, a thin smoke flew from the tobacco cigarette that set between his lips, and another man wearing a black sunglasses with an earpiece on his right ear is standing across the latter.

“Are you certain about that?” the man, who's smoking a tobacco, prodded.

The other man nodded as he answers.

“Yes, Sire. I'm positive.”

“Okay, that's it for today. Continue surveiling the Rivera's residence, report immediately if you observe something unusual.”

The man in suit nodded in understanding as he take his leave after bowing his head to the man. Pagkalabas ng lalaking naka pormal na kasuotan ay agad na kinuha ng lalaking nakaupo sa pang opisinang upuan ang kaniyang telepono at may tinawagan na kung sino.

“CJ, tomorrow at 10AM in Southville university, proceed to the plan we talked about. You will only take Maki Rivera and no one else, understood?”

“Sir, paano po kapag may mangyaring hindi po inaasahan at kailangan naming mag iba ng plano?”

“I don't like repeating myself, CJ.”

“Ayy okay po, Sir Nuevez. Masusunod.”

And the call ended.

Silvestre Nuevez turn his chair to face the transparent glass of his office, he can see the complete view of the city as he suck on his tobacco and blows the smoke into the air.

Monday came, the Rivera sisters woke up early in the morning despite the older girl being a night person, huli naman na itong pagtitiis niyang magising ng maaga para sa 7AM class niya tuwing Monday, Wednesday at Friday. Even Aphrodite couldn't believe that her study life is over and she can finally free herself from stress sa mga deadlines and schedule nilang walang pakundangan, no more midterms, finals, and burnouts. Just thinking about it, fuels Aphrodite's desire to explore her bucket list.
