[JUNE's POV]

"Madam, there's another package sent for you," one of our maids here said and gave me the envelope she's holding. This has been the third package.

Every week nakakatanggap ako ng package na ganito from Italy. The sender was unknown and even the address is not clear enough to find out where it is. so I really don't have an idea who the eff is sending me these. Ayoko mang isipin, pero dahil sa mga laman nung package, mukhang alam ko kung sino nagpapadala nito sa akin. But how come Italy yung nasa address and not from the Philippines?

The first one was not literally a package, it was a just a bouquet of lotus. At first, I really didn't know whom was it from. Seth got jealous again that he almost threw out that bouquet and hurt me. But sayang naman diba? It's beautiful pa naman. And don't worry, he didn't hurt me.

The second one, contained a bunch of photos. And that time I knew, it was from one of them. It was pictures of that Rin with 17OLA, Seven Aces, Junhui, her family and such. I tried looking at the back of the photos just to check if may message na nakasulat man lang. And when I ran across one photo, it has "From, Jae." on the bottom right of it. It was a picture of Rin and that Jaehyun guy I met last time in the Philippines. Okay why the eff is he sending me these?!

And this time, the third package was just an envelope. Good thing Seth's always not around whenever these kind of packages comes to me. And yes, aside from the lotus, I hid everything from him. Pumasok ako sa study room ko and locked the door. I went to my seat and opened the envelope.

DNA Test Result? The funk is this for? Oh wait... Ito ba yung nabanggit nila last time? I looked through it carefully and... What?

"DNA sample from Mrs. June Cyril Oh is confirmed to be a 99.99% match with Ms. Jane Emilia Wen's DNA Sample"

"Date Issued: July 5, 2017"

What the what?! I thought it was negative?!

And then there was another one! This time it's with Seokmin's DNA sample and bish, still 99.99% match? Shit? It was just recently issued what the what!

What's the meaning of this?! Oh my gawd.

Hindi pa dyan nagtapos ang lahat, there was another envelope inside. Finally it has the sender's name, and it's really from Jaehyun. Binuksan ko na yung envelope and it turns out to be a letter from him.

"Hello Rin! I mean June.

Remember me? Jae? I was the one who bumped into you noong summit. I was also there during Coffee Wonderland's anniversary.

Sorry if I kinda crept you out by sending those packages to you with an unknown sender. I'm just... Trying to help someone out. And yes, that's Junhui. But hey, hindi siya ang nagpapatulong talaga here. It's Seokmin, your brother's idea to let you know about these stuffs. He believed that if you would know the truth, it may be easier for you to gain back your lost memories. And here I am, helping out too.

About 5 years ago, nagkaroon ng malaking problema sa company natin here in Italy. Tita Vic and I, can't handle it much so we need more help, that's why we called you in and asked you to fly to Italy as soon as possible.

Just so it happens that the plane you rode was attacked by some terrorist but was said that it was a suicide bomb. The airlines confirmed that it was a total destruction. No one survived, and out of 200 passengers, only a few dead bodies were found.

Junhui... Almost lost his shits. Really... He got crazy enough to be suicidal. He couldn't accept the reality of you being dead. It was a good thing that Seokmin decided to take him to some psychologist and hopefully, he got cured.

For 5 years, we believed you're dead. But when you showed up again in Junhui's life, they felt like that was really you and that you're alive. And yes, science and destiny proved that you really are alive, Catherine.

You are not June Cyril Oh.

You are Catherine L. Wen, who has the nickname of Rin and was a known photographer with the name "Lady R"

I know this is very shocking, but I hope this sinks in to you real quick. If you happen to realize everything is true. Please. Please keep it to yourself and don't let Seth know it yet.

Just wait for us please. We'll get you back in you're real life...

We missed you, Cath... We missed you so much, and it's so great to know that you're alive.

I'll leave my contact number here again, please contact me if you need too.

Your friend,
Jaehyun"

.......................

Bitch what the fuck? Are these tears? Oh yes, I'm crying.

I... I survived an airplane crash when there was not even a single survivor? I'm? Catherine?!

My phone suddenly rang so of course I had to pick it up.

It's Seth...

I wiped away my tears first, cleared my throat at suminghot.

"H-hello?" yema pastillas, my voice is cracking jajshdjajs

"Wait. Are you crying? Why? What's the matter, hon?" pagtatanong niya. You freaking liar?

"Ah oo eh hahaha I was just watching a very sad movie... I got too carried away with the story... Bakit ka nga pala napatawag?" You lied to me, then I'll lie to you too.

"Oh... I guess that movie is really sad... Ano kasi, I just called cause there's a mini celebration here in the company. Our branch in Taiwan kasi did well on its first week so we're celebrating it and I just wanted to invite you over. It's you who suggested to bring our product to Taiwan anyway"

"Ah.. S-sure I'll go there. I'll get ready na. Bye na muna" I said and ended the call. Ewan ko ba pero naiyak pa ako lalo and that lasted for 30 minutes inside the bathroom. Mugto mata ko nito mamaya...

I tried so hard to cover it up with makeup, and hopefully it worked a little. I went to their building with a lot of questions and emotions filling up in me. Feeling ko mahihimatay na ako dito sa pagiging emotinally stressed.

And then the dinner went on, I just remained silent, faked out smiles, and lied about my swollen eyes. Gusto ko na magpahinga. Gusto ko nang umuwi. Hindi sa bahay namin, kundi sa Pilipinas. I know, that's my real home...

No wonder I felt so home there. No wonder kabisado ko mga daanan doon. Everything makes a funking sense now. And I don't funking know what to feel anymore.

"Seth... I feel so tired already, can I go home first?"

"Ah... Sabay na tayo umuwi. I want to rest na din"

He then bid good night to all his employees and when we're just about to walk out the door, I passed out.
