“RAVENA NA-LOCK TAYO DITO!” Mika shouted at Kiefer the moment she saw the door’s knob on the floor. They tried to attach it again but still, it’s helpless.

“TULONG! HELP US PLEASE! NA-LOCK PO KAMI DITO! TULONG!” Kiefer was also starting to panic. He kept on punching and dabbing the freezer’s door. He is worried not because he’s afraid of passing out, but he’s worried for the girl who’s stuck with him.

Mika seemed to have lost her hope. She just sat at the corner of the fridge, squeezing herself and cupping her face. 

The icy-cold atmosphere in the freezer is starting to get through her. She’s starting to quiver as of the moment, for she is really not used to intense cold such as this.

She stared blankly at her hands and realized it’s really pale. She started rubbing it against each other to produce a little doze of heat but it’s not going to be enough.

“PLEASE TULUNGAN NIYO KAMI! NA-LOCK PO KAMI DITO!” Kiefer shouted at the top of his lungs and fell onto his knees. He shook his head in disbelief and checked on Mika.

He saw the expression on Mika’s face. He ran immediately towards her and held both her hands. 

“Mika, Mika hang on please. I will do everything to get us out of here. It's going to be okay, everything's fine.” Kiefer told Mika convincingly as he cupped her face with both his hands.

Mika, in turn, just stared at him blankly, kinda appreciating the concern that he has been showing. “Kahit pala talaga lagi ko siyang inaaway concerned na concerned pa rin siya sa’kin.” Mika thought to herself, just looking at Kiefer weakly.

Kiefer took off his jacket hesitantly and  wrapped it around the freezing-cold Mika Reyes. “Here, wear this.” He exclaimed worryingly. “Ano, malamig ka pa ba?” He asked again.

Mika just nodded at him in response and he took both her hands again. Kiefer has been blowing it madly and his warm breath really comforts her. He rubbed Mika’s back to produce heat as well.

Mika can see it through Kiefer’s eyes that he’s worried. He’s worried sick. And honestly, she didn’t know why. Mika’s been pushing him away and did every harsh thing to him, she just can’t imagine how good Kiefer as a person is.

Mika touched his lips and realized how cold he is as well. All she did was just hug him tight until Mika passed out.

Kiefer noticed that Mika has already passed out, he laid her down on the floor comfortably and tried asking for help again, “TULONG PLEASE! ANDITO KAMI NI MIKA! HELP US PO! KUNG SINO MAN ANG NANDIYAN!”

“Kiefer? Is that you?” A voice who seems to be owned by Nico came in.

“Paps! Help us please! Na-lock kaming dalawa ni Mika dito. Please help us!” Kiefer begged as he heard footsteps rushing towards the freezer’s door.

“Oh crap! Wait there paps! Just hang on, please watch over my cousin for a while. Kumusta ba si Mika?” Nico asked Kiefer sounding really worried about his cousin’s condition.

”Paps he just passed out! Magmadali ka paps please!” Kiefer begged while looking at Mika lying unconciously on the floor. Her lips so pale, and her skin was already so cold. Kiefer picked her up and waited for some help.

A few minutes later, he heard footsteps coming back at the kitchen. Nico yanked the knob on the other side with a wedge on his hand. Kiefer opened the freezer vigorously and found Nico, Monchi, Mando, and Baby together with Gretchen and the group.
