Chapter 8: What's the Secret?
During Class
Teacher: "Bella, pwede ba kitang makausap?"
Bella: "Po? Sige po, ma'am."
Teacher: "About your scholarship... Isa ka sa mga naalis. Pero don't worry, naggagawa na ako ng paraan. Sinasabi ko lang para mag-ready ka pa rin at makapag-ipon."
Bella: "Sige po, ma'am. Gagawan ko po ng paraan."
Bella didn't know what to do, but she thought about finding a job to save up.
After Class
On her way home, Bella crossed paths with Vastian.
Vastian: "Bella? Bella! Kamusta ka?"
Bella: "Oh, hello, Vastian. Okay naman."
Vastian: "Good to know, Bella. Just remember, nandito lang ako para sa'yo, ha."
Bella: "Oh... maraming salamat, Vastian."
When Bella got home, she prepared herself for tomorrow's job search.
Chapter 9: My Work
On Saturday, Bella started looking for a job. She struggled at first, as if the day itself didn't want her to find one. Eventually, she applied at a mansion-as a housemaid. She was accepted, but one day, while cleaning, she realized that the owner's child was...
Bella: "Grabe, ang laki ng bahaqa,y na 'to. Ang hirap linisin lahat."
Bella was startled to see that the owner's child was Carol. Carol, in turn, was equally shocked and confused.
Carol: "What the hell are you doing in my house?"
Bella: "Yaya ako dito."
Carol: "What? So sa madaling salita, you're my yaya? Oh my god, hahaha."
Weeks passed, and Bella became Carol's servant. Despite everything, Bella was able to pay her school fees, securing her scholarship until graduation.
Chapter 10: The Truth
After Class
Carol: "Kai, halika nga. Mag-usap tayo."
Kai: "Ano na naman ba?"
Carol: "Bobo ka ba? Akala mo hindi ko malalaman na nag-anonymous chat ka kay Daddy para sabihin na may kinalaman tayo sa pagkamatay ni Stella?"
Kai: "What the...? It's not me! Bakit ko gagawin 'yun, eh madadamay ang pangalan ko?"
Carol: "May isa pa akong problema. Nawawala 'yung kwintas."
Kai: "Ano?! 'Yun ang nag-iisang ebidensya laban sa atin!"
Carol: "Hindi ko na alam! Gagawa ako ng paraan."
Kai: "By the way, congrats. Napansin ko na ikaw lagi ang mataas sa bawat subject ngayon. Mukhang may magandang kinalabasan ang pagkamatay ni Stella, 'di ba? Hahaha."
Carol: "What the hell? Tumigil ka nga."
Kai and Carol were somehow involved in Stella's death. But who's really responsible? Or are both of them?
