Delfin was very determined to find his sister. And so, he went on to find her, even if Amanda and the Campanillas were about to surrender.

And so, he wandered around the city in search for her. He wasted no time, for he wished to find her before everything was too late.

After a long search, Delfin found someone who caught his interest. It was a girl. The girl's dress was heavily stained with tar, although its original color - pink - is still seen. His porcelain skin was also covered with tar. The girl was singing merrily in the streets when Delfin saw her.

Upon seeing Delfin, the girl was filled with terror. "N-no, no, please. Don't come near me," the girl said. And she ran and ran.

Meanwhile, Delfin looked at the Constantina's picture that Amanda gave them. This former wife of Don Hidalgo smuggled the photo, along with other important documents, when she left the criminal's house.

He looked at the picture. He looked at the girl. The girl was his sister Constantina! 

Delfin followed the girl. She ran. He kept on following her. While running, the girl screamed. "No, no, please! Do not harm me!" she said.

Finally, unable to run any longer, Constantina sat under a tree. Delfin caught her. "Constantina? Is that you?" he said.

"W-why do you know my name?" Constantina asked.

"My sister! It's me! Your twin brother! Delfin!" Delfin answered.

"I-I have a twin? D-Delfin?" she asked again.

Immediately, Delfin approached Constantina and held her hand. The girl was filled with fear. After a while, she held her breath, and she lost consciousness. 

"Constantina? Help! Help me!" Delfin screamed. Moments later, a car passed by, and the good driver agreed to bring the twins to the hospital. However, it was too late. The girl was dead.

Delfin wept bitterly. He could not accept the death of his twin, whom he had longed to see since he discovered her existence. 

Delfin himself buried his twin, placing a pillar over her grave. After burying her, Delfin went back to the mansion, weeping. The Campanillas were shocked to see him.
