"Now I would to call again Professor Diwa of Ferrydell University to the stand." Sabi ni Joseph. Nagpunta na sa stand si Sir Diwa.

"Professor Diwa, you found my clients on a certain bar near St. Patrick's Medical Center. You called the ambulance when you saw them faint due to the effects of the drugs. Why are you at the bar that night?" Sabi ni Joseph. Medyo nahirapan si Sir Diwa makasagot sa tanong. Di niya agad naibigay ang sagot niya. Napaisip siya kung magsisinungaling siya, o magsasabi siya ng totoo. At the end of his thinking time, nagdesisyon pa rin siya na sabihin ang totoo.

"I was at the bar because I was lamenting about someone I love. I'm sorry if that was a bit frank, but it is the reality." Sabi ni Sir Diwa.

"It's alright, professor. Now, did you saw Chloe Concepcion-Doneio with my clients that night?" Sabi ni Joseph.

"Yes. I have something to say about this. I was at the bar that night. Then I saw Chloe. She was talking to one of the waiters to slip the drugs to the drinks of your clients. Eloisa and Rose were not with Chloe, when Chloe told the waiter to the act. After that, she left the bar. Then she returned with Eloisa and Rose. And that's when they were drugged." Sabi ni Sir Diwa.

"Thank you for you statement, professor." Sabi ni Joseph.

"Now, let's hear what the defense will say." Sabi ng Judge.

"Ummm... We have nothing to say in defense." Sabi ng lawyer ni Chloe.

"What? I don't believe you! Are you serious? You are going to screw me up here you little coward!" Sabi ni Chloe.

"Order in court!" Sabi ng Judge.

"Sorry." Sabi ni Chloe.

"Are you sure that you have nothing to say in defense, Mrs. Doneio?" Sabi ng Judge.

"Yes, I'm sure. My idiot lawyer has nothing to say for me in defense, and so do I." Sabi ni Chloe.

"Alright, it seems that the jury has already given their decision. I hereby declare Chloe Concepcion-Doneio guilty and is sentence to life in prison." Sabi ng Judge. Tumalon sa tuwa sina Eloisa at Rose. Pinosasan na si Chloe at dinala sa kulungan. Nasiyahan na ang lahat tungkol sa pangyayari.

"Hay salamat. Justice has been served." Sabi ni Eloisa.

"Tama ka, anak." Sabi ni Joseph.

"So, what do we do now, Rose? Magsisimula na ba ulit tayo sa paghahanap?" Sabi ni Eloisa.

"Nah. Bisitahin muna natin yung kriminal sa kulungan. Meron akong mga nagbabagang tanong sa kanya." Sabi ni Rose.

"Sige ba!" Sabi ni Eloisa.

"Bahala na muna kayo kung anong gagawin niyo buong araw. Uuwi na ako. Congrats sa kaso mga anak." Sabi ni Joseph.

"Salamat, pa." Sabi ni Eloisa. Pumunta na sa kulungan ni Chloe sina Eloisa at Rose kaagad-agad. Binisita nila si Chloe na bagong kulong dun. Sabay na rin bumisita sina Lerine at Raphael sa kulungan.

"Doneio, may bisita ka!" Sabi ng pulis.

"Sino ba yun? Mga magulang ko ba ito." Sabi ni Chloe.

"Pwede na." Sabi ng pulis. Pagkalabas ni Chloe sa selda niya, nakita niya ang mga magulang niya at si Eloisa at Rose. Umupo sila sa visiting area.

"Bago kami magtanong kung ano ang buong storya, may isa muna kaming sasabihin sa iyo! Isa kang kahihiyan!" Sabi ni Raphael.

"Hinay-hinay lang." Sabi ni Lerine. Walang imik si Chloe sa sinasabi ng mga magulang niya.

"Napakatarantado mo! Akala ko naman diretso ang daang tinatahak mo. Yun pala, papatay ka ng tao at mandodroga ka! Pinagsisihan ko na inampon ka mula sa ampunang pinanggalingan mo!" Sabi ni Raphael.
