"Home at last! " Meg was rejoicing as soon as they entered the house. Aom and Tina exchanged glances and they gave their daughter a smile.

"Looks like you're so tired, huh?" asked Aom.

"Mom, we played Monopoly almost half of the day, and I ended up with nothing! And now my eyes feel so tired... I just want to go to bed. "Where's Sunny?" Meg peeked through Sunny's bedroom only to find out her sister is not home yet. "Oh, I forgot... I should have not asked. I didn't see her car outside." she said.

Aom looked at Tina so worried. Actually, she already noticed that as soon as they arrived home. Sunny's car isn't there yet. The whole day she's been thinking of Sunny... How she wanted to call and check on her daughter because that's how she is with her. But for some reason, she chose to remain quiet. She doesn't want to push it more. She knows Sunny is so angry at her because of what's been happening lately. "Did she even text you? It's almost nine..." she asked Tina.

Tina took hold of her phone. She's thinking maybe she just missed the calls or texts from Sunny since she was sleeping awhile ago. But then there was none... She took a deep breath... "No calls, no texts. I'm calling her right now. " she said , after pressing Sunny's number. She's also worried.

Sunny's not answering so , Tina just left a message. "Hi, baby... where are you? You told me you're gonna text me? Are you still with Nikka? Please call me ASAP. I love you. " Tina hung up. She turned her gaze at Aom. "I'll just wait for her call. Go take a shower so you can rest too. It's been a long day..." Tina rubbed Aom's back. She kissed her wife on the forehead. Aom nodded... "Okay..." she said.

When Aom entered the room, she went straight to the bathroom then she locked the door. She leaned back on the sink. She was staring at nowhere... Her chest pounding, and she's worried about Sunny. She's really blaming herself because now she's seeing the consequences of what she did. Her family is not like this... She's not used to Sunny ignoring her like this... and she's not used of herself being a bitchy mom. She was never like that with her children... Her kids adore her so much. And now, she's not even sure how her kids feel about her. Tears fell on her cheeks... then she turned her back to turn on the faucet. She splashed some water on her face... Once... Twice... Then she looked at her face at the mirror. She looks so haggard, and it's because of her own doing. It's all her fault... Of course, she wants to fix this. But how? She already hurt a lot of people especially her wife and her daughter. She cannot take back those words anymore. She shook her head... She splashed water on her face again.

Sunny was just staring at her phone... She knows it's late and her folks are waiting for her call. But she can't seem to focus herself on what to do first. There's a lot of things running in her mind, and she feels so lost. She's thinking of Angel... It hurts her that Angel is living up to her word... She's been trying to reach her endlessly, but she wasn't answering her calls. " NO TEXTS... NO CALLS FOR NOW..." these words from Angel kept on echoing in her ears and it hurts so bad. But she was also being true to her word... She told Angel she cannot bear with the break up for long. That's the reason why she's insisting on calling her still. She can't help it.
