Hard Fall
“I bet she never mentioned about it hasn’t she Elmo? Does it make sense now? The person you’ve been looking for a long time was just beside you playing with your emotions and hiding in the dark.” Cesare said.
“I still do not trust this document Mr. Castracani, there are a lot of ways to fabricate such paper.” Elmo defended.
“Persistent with your belief aren’t you? Well I can’t blame you with that. Humans, when they are encountered with something contrary to their belief, their primary defense mechanism is to negate and deny such radical notion.”
“Don’t lecture me; I know that long time ago.”
“Then why don’t you stop yapping and try to look into the authenticity of what I gave you. Are you man enough to face the truth Mr. Magalona? Do you have what it takes to accept this painful revelation?” Cesare dared.
“Fine! But once I’ve learned that this is hoax you’ll pay dearly with your life!” Elmo warned.
“But if I am correct?”
“I’ll jump that hurdle when I come to it.” Elmo said.
“Fair enough… you can start by asking your lawyer by yourself, if I am not mistaken he once became an IVP of PSJ am I right?”
“You sure do your homework Mr. Castracani.”
“Of course, because that is the only way to win the course.” Cesare grinned.
Elmo immediately went out the restaurant and drove to find Jean.
(Phone Ringing)
“Hello?” Jean answered.
“Jean! I need to talk to you!” Elmo demanded.
“Oh, Moe! Can’t you pick a better time? I am having some fun tonight!” Jeaan whined.
“This is urgent!”
“Fine, I am at Ivy Bar.”
“Okay, wait me there”

At Ivy Bar
“Moe! What’s up?” Jean welcomed.
But before Jean realizes it, Elmo rushed in front of him and gave him a swift blow in the face. Jean went down hitting the tables and chairs.
“YOU TRAITOROUS BASTARD! WHY DID YOU GIVE MY MOTHER’S DOCUMENT TO CESARE?” Elmo screamed.
“What? Who?”
“Oh don’t play games with me Jean!” Elmo angrily reacted as tried to second his blows but the bouncers in the club stopped him. “Jean! I will never forgive you! You betrayed me! I trusted you!” Elmo shouted as he was being dragged.
“Wait! Hold it! I wanted to talk to him.” Jean ordered his bouncers “Moe, I really do not know what you are talking about…”
“THESE!” Elmo threw the documents to Jean. “…you gave those to Cesare!”
Jean read the papers and was surprised to see the documents. “Moe, I never gave these documents to anyone.”
“Then how did Cesare got hold of it? He is now using it against me! More importantly, I want to know the truth behind that document!”
Jean twitched his brows and contemplated. “Gasp! Moe we better hurry!” Jean suddenly said.
“What? Oh no! We are not going anywhere Jean until you tell me everything.” Elmo stopped.
