   " Michael Pov's "




After Yuan's attempted to assault on me, I was really scared.



It's a good thing grandma arrived; when she saw us, she started shouting, which caused people from the nearby houses to come out.

Today is my departure day; I'm feeling nervous, but I won't let my anxiety get the better of me.

"Michael, be careful where you're going!" Grandma's reminder, I should smile before I speak.

"Of course, you should take care of yourself too!" i said and hugged him, and he hugged me back. It was the same with  dad.

"Please take care, okay?" i said to them while trying to hold back my tears.

They smiled before nodding, as the tricycle I would take to town was already outside.

I see that their faces are sad, and so am I, but I need to stay strong.

When I started to step towards the tricycle, I didn't look back anymore because I might change my mind and decide not to go.

Before I could fully board, I could still hear my grandma's and Dad's soft sobs. I wiped the tear that fell on my cheek before taking a deep breath and releasing it forcefully.

As I rode the bus to Manila, I just looked out the small window because I was entertained by the scenery around me.

This is the first time I will be going to Manila, so I am truly amazed by the sights.

Perhaps the bus will stop soon because I can see tall buildings all around.

I was suddenly surprised when some men entered and approached where I was sitting.

I suddenly felt nervous because they were all dressed in black suits.

I just realized that someone covered my mouth with a handkerchief, which caused me to lose consciousness.

But before I lost consciousness, I could still hear the shouting around me as people were in chaos.

Before I completely closed my eyes, I saw a man who had a different smile for me, and then everything went black.
