"Thank you so much, Atty. Nimedez"

"My pleasure, it will process soon so you both will be free"

We shake our hands as our meeting finished, today was the day that their divorce is finally processing.

"Do you have spare time, Atty? I just wanna treat you dinner, if you mind"

"Sorry to decline your offer, Capt. Flores but I have an errand today"

It's true, today is the day that Olivia will take me somewhere. I don't know what is she planning to do, but I let her.

"Okay then"

Palabas na ako ng building kung saan kami nag kita ni Capt. Flores, when I felt my phone vibrated from my bag. Nang sulyapan ko kung sino ang caller ay agad akong napangiti, it's my Olivia. Mabilis ko naman sinagot iyon.

"Yes, hon?" my heart beats fast again.

Dumiretso na ako sa nakaparadang sasakyan ko sa harap ng parking area nitong restaurant.

"Where are you now?" she asked on the other line.

"Still here, kakatapos lang ng meeting ko together with your friend Captain Flores"

"Hmm, can't wait to see you. I miss you..."

My smiles grew, she's really a sweet vocal person.

"Wait for me.."

My mind is blowing like the waves of the ocean water, we're here at the center of nowhere I'm still thinking what Kuya Luis told me earlier. I can't help not to feel scared for my cousin.

Nasa gitna ako ng pag dridrive papunta sa binigay nalugar ni Olivia, when my phone vibrated again, I thought it was Olivia but my smile vanish when Kuya Luis name pop in it.

"Kuya?"

"Acine nag usap ba kayo ni Laurence?"

Kumunot ang aking noo nang mahimigan ko ang kaba sa boses nito, tumikihim ako't napaayos ng upo habang nag fofocus sa pag dridrive.

"Hindi pa naman Kuya, bakit?"

"Did she mentioned to you that she's accepting again some case?"

"What case?"

Hindi basta basta mag rereact ng ganito si Kuya kung hindi seryoso ang bagay na ito.

"It's a raped cased again Acine, you know what happened the last time she accept an offer like this"

Halos matigilan ako nang marinig iyon, hindi ko maiwasang makaramdam ng kakaibang kaba habang inaalala ang huling kaso ni Laurence na ganito. She almost died because of that case, hindi naman na siguro mauulit po iyon? Knowing Laurence she's stubborn as hell, she have her words. When she say she'll accept it, she would. No one can stop her, she's like Abuelo. They are monster in terms of justice.

"Don't worry Kuya, I'll talk to her later."

I tried to ring her phone, pasalamat at ilang ring pa ay may sumagot narin ito. Mabuti nga at kahit papaano ay may signal ng pantawag dito sa dagat.

"Yeah?"

Halata sa namamaos nitong boses na kakagising lang nito.

"Laurence, I heared you accept another case again" seryosong turan ko dito.

It's been a weeks when the last time we saw each other, I miss this gal already. She's my sister, that's why I'm feeling this fear inside of me.

"Hmm, did Kuya tell you about it?"
