"You never learned Ashely!" Singhal nya sakin habang patuloy na umaagos ang luha. "You belong to me and you're staying this damn house whenever you like it or not! Mapapatay muna kita bago ka makakaalis sa pamamahay na ito! Naiintidihan mo ako?!" Isang malakas at nakakatakot na sigaw ang binigay nya saakin na sanhi mapa iyak at manginig pa lalo ako sa takot. "B-Bakit mo 'to ginagawa saakin?" Mahina kong tanong at sapat na yon para marinig nya. "Bakit mo ba ako pinapahirapan at pinaparusan ng ganito? B-Bakit hindi mo ako pinapayagan na makita si Papa? Miss na miss ko na s-sya" tumulo ang luha sa aking maga mata. Sa bawat salita na binigkas ko lahat yon bumara sa puso at lalamunan ko. Bakit ang selfish nya? "Curse and hit me all you want. Pero hindi na mag babago ang isip ko Ashely!" malamig na sagot nito at nadurog pa lalo ang puso ko sa sakit. Nag simula na syang mag lakad palabas nang kwarto "I will do anyting." Nanginiging kong turan habang pinupunasan ko ang luha sa aking pisngi "J-Just please... I will do anything, just hear me out... Gagawin ko ang lahat para payagan mo lang ako maka alis sa puder at buhay mo." Pag mamakaawa nya na patuloy na lumalandas ang luha sa kanyang mga mata. Napahinto si Drake sa pag lalakad at nag pakawala ito ng malalim na buntong-hiningga. "Just gave me a child Ashely." Saad nito na ako'y matigilan. "Bear my child and that's you can repay me on yours father debt... You can do whatever you like and you are free from this hell... Iiwan at ibibigay mo saakin ang bata... Yan lang ang gusto ko." Saad nya at tuluyan na akong manghina. Ano? Seryoso ba sya? Tanggapin ko ba ang alok nya? O hindi? Nag pakawala ako nang isang malalim na buntong-hiningga bago ako sumagot. "S-Sige, tatanggapin ko." Determinado nyang sagot at nagpakawala lamang sya ng isang makakatakot na ngiti sa kanyang labi. Dapat na ba akong kabahan? Sana wala akong pag sisihan sa mga desisyon na ginagawa ko pagkatapos nito.
