TANYA'S POV:

Maaga kaming nag-impake ni Pia para sumunod kila Tita sa Korea. She already called Butler James to excuse us from all our classes hanggang next week at gumawa na lamang ng dahilan kung bakit hindi kami makakapasok. Supposedly, si Pia lang sana ang uuwi dun pero dahil natatakot daw siya sa magiging reaksyon at sasabihin nila tito at tita ay kailangan ko siyang samahan kausapin sila.

"Tan, do you think this is a good idea?" Kinakabahang tanong ni Pia habang nag-aayos ng bag niya.

Tumahimik na lamang ako at ipinagpatuloy ang pagtutupi ng mga dadalhin kong damit.

"Young heiress, handa na po ang kotse sa ibaba." Ani kuya Rhome at iminuwestra sa dalawang guard ang mga bagahe namin.

Pia went down ahead of me habang bitbit ang nag-iisang teddy bear na regalo sa kanya ni Kleigh noong 10th birthday niya. I really thought, it was Kleigh all along. We aren't sure yet if it's positive or what but I have this weird feeling that Pia is pregnant. Akala ko ba, sabi ni ate G walang nabubuntis sa one night stand? Usually daw ay kailangan pang ulitin para mahit ang bull's eye. Kyaaah. Nagiging manyak na din ang pag-iisip ko. Anyway, I will miss my babe, Red. Hindi man lang ako nakapagpaalam sa kanya. But I'm a bit excited too. Imagine, Korea 'yun. Baka magkita kami ni G-Dragon. Waaahh!!!!!

PIA'S POV:

Natatakot ako. Though, I haven't tried testing kung tama ba ang hinuha ni Tanya o ano, kinakabahan na talaga ako. Paano kung maging positibo? What will I tell my parents and siblings? Mababaliw na yata ako. My parents have a lot of dreams for us. They've worked hard just to give us everything that we need. My sister and brother haven't entertained the idea of getting married yet dahil they wanted to see me finish my studies first and we'll all settle down together. Ate and kuya are already in their late 20's but haven't engaged themselves into any serious type of relationship kasi nga palaging si bunso ang top priority kesa love life. Kahit na may fianceè na si kuya, hindi niya ako nakakalimutan. Matagal na silang engaged but they haven't planned yet  when the wedding will be. I am such a disappointment in the family. They all graduated with a clean slate but how about me? Magiging batang ina? Disgrasyada? Then what? Ikakahiya nila ako. Wala na. Sirang-sira na ang buhay ko.

"Stop overthinking. Just rest." Whispered Tanya habang nakahalf closed ang mga mata.

I haven't told Mom yet that I'm coming home. I know they'll be surprised to see me most especially that it's been three years already since I last visited them here in Korea.

Will my Mom understand if she knows that I might be pregnant? Wouldn't Dad consider me a black sheep in the family for being so reckless? Will ate still consider me as their baby when she discovers that I committed a big mistake? And wouldn't kuya be mad at me for setting aside his own happiness just to see me succeed first? I am so wasted. I threw away their trust, their dreams for me, even their love and money. My family have been working so hard just to send me into a prominent school, provide me with everything-more than what I exactly need and here I am, such a shame on the Kim's. Ano bang ginawa ko? Why didn't I think that I might get pregnant in the first place? Pero hindi pa naman ako sigurado diba?

"Young heiress? Shall we?" Ani Butler James at inalalayan ako pababa ng eroplano.

We used our private jet para hindi maging hassle. One more thing is that we left Philippines so early in the morning dahil hindi na nga nakatulog si Tanya kakaisip ng posibleng mga dahilan kung bakit nangyayari ito. Lumipat kami sa kotse na nagsundo sa amin ni Tanya dito sa airport. I truly missed this place. Parang kailan lang nung huling balik ko dito at andami nang nagbago. We're heading to Seoul where the main company is located. Isa sa mga gusto ko sa Korea is that there is no traffic. Wala ring dyip o tricycle. Lahat 'de kotse. Korea is famous kasi for their advanced technology. What would you expect diba? 'Yun nga lang sa halip na puno ay building ang makikita. We live in Ghangnam. According to Korean history, people living in that place came from the highest heirarchy of the society. It's a few hours away from the city which is Seoul. Tahimik at hindi gaanong sociable ang mga taong nakatira 'dun. They are all busy with their private and business lives. Si Kleigh nga lang 'yung kakilala ko 'dun eh.
