"Mom?" It has been hours since she sat on the couch yet she's still silent. I sat beside her and glanced at her for awhile. I am pondering the unseen reason for my mother's reaction after unveiling the name of Terrence's mom.

Does it has something to do with her past? My mom has been my closest one but I never lurked the silhouette of her bygone.

"Is there something wrong? Do you know Terrence's Mom?" I do not mean to barge nor do I wanted to interfere with her thoughts but seeing her like this which I have never witnessed in my life is a bothersome.

She heaved a deep sigh and looked at me. "Do not go near him again hmm? Her Mom. She's.. she's just not like other good people, Ezekiel." She uttered with a flinch of pain across her eyes.

"That means I can't invite Terrence for my birthday, can I?" She smiled painfully and brushed her soft fingers through my hair. "All I want is what's best for you and I think, this is for the best."

I was dribbling my ball, strolling my way upstairs when I heard my father's voice from his office. "I assure you, I no longer have any communication with her, Hon." My forehead creased upon hearing such conversation. Is this has something to do with his mom?

"Please, Kristoff. Just.. just stay away from her. Hindi ko alam kung kakayanin ko pang mangyari ulit ang kinatatakutan ko. I don't want to lose you. Neither our son" she said between her sobs.

Why is my mom crying?

I don't want to eavesdrop but I don't want to hear my mom cry too. I need to know the reason.

"That.. that Therese! Why does she need to be here Kristoff? Tell me! Sisirain niya ba pamilya na nabuo natin? Ano? Wala ka ba talagang alam na lumipat sila dito?"

I hid from their sight with eyebrows furrowed. I was right.

This has something to do with Therese Vaughn.

"Elizabeth, please calm down. I love you hmm? I love our son. As long as that stays, no one can break this family that we have."
