The night before Jem checked out she called Alex' mom. "Hi, Tita. I just want to know if Alex is okay now, from what I heard she continued working with my team." "Yes, hija. I think she trying to be fine but in no time she'll be as bubbly as she is." "I really hope so." "Where are you now?" "I packed my things, I'll be leaving on Wednesday." "Are you going to leave without talking to Alex?" "I guess, it is better this way Tita. I don't want to hurt Alex anymore, if she'll see me again she'll remember the tragic past that we've been through." "Do you want to stay in my place before you leave?" "Really po?" "Yes, you can use Alex room. The view on her window is very nice." "Okay tita." "I sent you the address, take care."

Going back to Alex, Allen and Raz. "Guys, did you contact her?" Alex to Allen and Raz. They met in the nearest cafeteria. "No Alex, she's not answering her phone. Are there malls or shops nearby?" "Yes, why?" "Maybe she's doing shopping." "Let's try."

Monday night. Jem arrived at their home. "Welcome hija." "Wow tita, your place is so beautiful." "Thank you, let's have dinner I cooked something for you." "I'm so touched." While they're eating, "Si Alex po ba palaging umuuwi dito?" "Yung batang yun, naku hindi. Uuwi lang kapag nalulungkot or namimiss ako. She's a busy human being." "I know, she really loves photography. I can feel her passion." "Yes, kaya hindi ko din sya pinipilit na umuwi dito kasi it is far from her office. Ayaw mo ba talaga syang makausap?" "I don't know tita, maybe okay na yung ganito na I'll be gone without a trace." Jem will spend two nights with Alex' mom before leaving.

Tuesday. Alex, Raz and Allen are still looking for Jem. They saw a bunch of people on the pedestrian, it looks like there was an accident. Alex heard, "I feel sorry for her, I hope she gets better." "Her injuries are severe, it will take time for her to heal." Alex ran going to where the people are standing. "Boss Alex! Where are you going?" Raz shouted. "What's wrong? -Allen. "Oh shet." Raz realized why Alex is going there. "Let's go Allen, they followed Alex.

"Excuse me, excuse." Alex is trying to see the person who was injured. She saw a lot blood but the person was already with the medics going to the hospital. Alex tryna ask the people, "Did you see the girl?" "Yeah, I think she's Asian. They said that she's drunk when crossed the pedestrian." "Thanks."
"Raz! Go get the car! Now!" Alex is really anxious, "What if it was Jem? I will never forgive myself."

They went to the nearest hospital, "Excuse me, what happened to the girl that was rushed here because of the accident in the pedestrian?" "Are you a relative?" "Yeah." "What is your relation with the patient?" "Umm, I'm her partner." "Okay, she in the operating room and on a critical stage." Alex broke down when she heard the update from the nurse. "Boss." Raz assisted Alex. "Alex we're not sure if it was Jem. Stay strong." "Raz, pano kung sya yun. Hinding hindi ko mapapatawad yung sarili ko." Alex cried like a child.
