CM'S MOTHER POV

"Hon... Kio is dead" I said to my husband. I'm shocked. The first thing I remember is my daughter, CM.

"What? How? Why?" his shock too. He immediately contacted the parents of Kio

"Hindi pwedeng malaman ni CM 'to. Baka lumala ang kondisyon niya sa puso" I told him

My husband: Good Evening Mr. Corpuz, I received the news about your son Kio. I'm sorry for your loss. Can we talk tomorrow? Yes, please. I and my wife will wait for you in our office tomorrow. Please don't tell this to my daughter. Thank you. Sorry again. Condolence to your family.

In the morning, I and my husband wake up early for the appointment we have with Mr. Corpuz and Mrs. Corpuz, the parents of Kio. We already took a bath. I wear my office attire, simple slacks, and elegant black blouse with flowers printed on it, and black heels. I wear my simple necklace and earrings. I sprayed my perfume from Victoria's Secret. My husband wears his dark-colored suit and ties in the shade of gray and his shiny black shoes. He uses his silver watch from Rolex. He sprayed his perfume from Bvlgari Man in Black.

We finished and went straight to our company. We waited for Kio's parents. When they arrived. We immediately talked about CM and Kio. CM shouldn't know what happened to Kio because she's still having the bad conditions. The parents of Kio, both agree with us. We also talk kung kailan maiuuwi ang labi ni Kio dito sa pilipinas at bukas na iyon. Balak ng parents ni Kio na gawing tatlong araw lang ang burol saka ilibing agad para hindi rin maabutan ni CM. 

Nakaburol na ngayon si Kio. I looked at his coffin. I talk to him in my mind.

"Kio... I'm sorry because we can't tell CM what happened to you. This is not the right time. Thank you for loving and caring for my lovely daughter. I don't have any regrets na ikaw ang naging boyfriend ng anak ko. Please take care and guide CM in heaven. Rest in paradise, Kio" I said that while I was crying and apologizing to him. Hindi man lang s'ya nakita ng anak ko sa huling pag kakataon. Pero andito kami. Kami na nag rerepresenta kay CM.

After 3 days, Kio's parents visited us. At biglang dumating si CM kaya bigla akong kinabahan at na-guilty sa mga ginawa at nagawa namin sakanya. Yes tama. Ang sama naming magulang kasi pinagkaitan namin ang anak namin na makita sa huling pagkakataon ang taong minamahal niya. Pero iniisip lang namin ang nakakabuti para sakanya lalo na hindi pa siya magaling. Hindi pa napapalitan ang puso niya. Hindi pa nga napapalitan pero ito'y sobrang durog na at madudurog pa pag nalaman niya na kaming magulang niya ay niloko siya.

"Hi, mom and dad. Sorry I'm late.. may ginawa lang kaming importante" CM greet us with a bright smile in her face. Mas lalo akong naawa sa anak ko. I'm so sorry dear.

"Hi, Tito and Tita. You're here na po pala. Did Kio know that your here na po?" CM also greet Kio's parents and ask them. But they didn't answer CM's question so I grabbed their attention to change the topic

"Hmm. Dear... CM we have a meeting today. So I think you need to go na"  I told CM

"Oh... I'm sorry everyone for interrupted you" she apologized. She doesn't need to apologize to us instead we're the one who needs to apologize to her.
