(Delilah Series # 2) "Is it true that you were your own stepfather's mistress?" Alam ko na kailangan kong depensahan ang sarili ko. I look at the few people who are seated inside the trial court. Sa mga mata nila ay nakikita kong hinuhusgahan na nila ang buo kong pagkatao. Dumapo ang tingin ko kay Lolo na nakaupo sa tabi ni Attorney Pelaez. Pumikit siya nang mariin. "N-No... No... That is not true... " namamaos kong paninindigan. Halos maubusan na ng lakas. I could not feel the witness chair where I'm sitting on anymore. Pumikit ako nang mariin at kasabay nito ay ang paglandas ng maiinit na mga luha. "Please... Hindi t-totoo 'yan... Please s-stop," pagmamakaawang hikbi ko.

"Do you have anymore questions, Mr. Attorney?" mahinahong tanong ng judge. "None, Your Honor," biglang namaos ang boses niya. "No more questions for this cross examination." Nag-angat ako ng mukha. Tiningnan ko ang hitsura ng lalaki na minsan ko ng minahal nang lubusan. I looked at the face of my mother's criminal defense attorney. The very face of Attorney Lake Jacobe Mendez.
