(Delilah Series # 3) "You were my father's mistress. How else do you want me to treat you?" Halos matumba ako sa bigat na dumagan sa puso ko dahil sa sinabi niya. Tell him! Tell him the truth. Tell him why you had to do it! Sigaw ng utak ko ngunit hindi naman kayang panindigan ng bibig ko. Tulad na lang ng nakaraan ay wala akong ibang nagawa. I looked at him with pleading eyes. Hoping for him to understand. Begging him to search for the truth himself. "Tell me, Clau or shall I say tell me, Doctor Abigail Claudine Manalo," binabalot ng pait ang bawat pagbigkas niya sa buo kong pangalan. "Did you think of my father while you slept with me? Did you wish it was him beside you while you were in bed with me?" Bumalatay ang sakit at pang-aakusa sa kanyang mga mata. "Did you . . . even love me?" "Ang . . . Ang tagal na no'n, Theo," tanging nasabi ko sa mahinang boses. Napasinghap ako at napatakip sa bibig nang suntukin niya ang pader. Malutong ang sunud-sunod na pagmura niya. Nagtagis ang kanyang bagang. Tiningnan ko ang kamay niya at nahindik sa nakitang dugo na dumaloy mula rito. Sumabay dito ang pagbuhos ng mga luha ko. "T-Theo. . ." Tinitigan niya ang kanyang nagdurugong kamao. Ni isang beses ay hindi niya ako sinulyapan. It was like I wasn't even there. Just him, his anger, and his pain. He turned around and walked away. I wanted so bad to tell him the truth. Pero paano ko gagawin iyon? Paano ko sasabihin sa kanya ang katotohanan kung lalo lang itong ikawawasak ng buhay niya?

(Delilah Series # 4) "Jia..." Pansamantala kong pinutol ang pagtanaw sa media para tingnan si Attorney Domingo, the man who was in the cabin that night. He gave me a reassuring nod. I inhaled sharply and stepped toward the podium. The cameras were alert once again as they were fixated on me. Alec Von Cua is a powerful man. He comes from a very old rich and powerful family of Chinese ancestry. This was the reason why I married him in the first place so I am fully aware of what I am getting myself into as I'm doing this. "My name is Jia Chen Cua, " I started to speak in a steady voice in front of the microphone. Nakabibinging katahimikan ang sumunod dito. "I am Alec Von Cua's... estranged wife." "Are the rumors true that you filed a TRO against your business tycoon husband?" "Have you filed a case against him?" "Did you run away from your own husband, Mrs. Cua?" "Is it true that he abducted you?" "Did he abuse you?" Never did I once blink against all the questions they've thrown my way. I stood my ground and did not falter. "Are you a victim of domestic abuse?" Napapikit ako sa huling tanong. Nang dumilat ako ay naging tahimik silang lahat. Na para bang napagtanto na nilang sasagot na ako at kailangan na nilang makinig sa sasabihin ko. "Yes, I am. He abused me... He... He hurt me physically," umalingangaw sa buong paligid ang sagot ko. Pumikit ulit ako para man lang kahit papaano ay maibsan ang sakit sa dibdib ko. "Alec Von Cua is a monster." The memories in that dark, awful room came flooding to me. Bumuhos ang mga luha ko at nanghina ulit ako. "I am a victim of domestic violence. My husband, Alec Von Cua assaulted, violated... and raped me." And because of him, I lost my baby. Because of him, I lost myself. And this time, I promise that he will lose everything. His power, his name... and his own self.
