I woke up with a severe headache from crying excessively. Feeling my body still tired and aching all over while ignoring the burning sore in my throat, I just laid in the bed motionless as I stare at the blank ceiling of the room I was in.

It's so damn quite and it's making me go numb and lost.

My thoughts ponder on what just happened yesterday. The sudden appearance of my grandfather's men. The intense crossfire that broke out on that place and my Veille's sacrifice for us to get away alive and safe.

She promised me she will come back but she didn't. I shouldn't let her arm go o di kaya'y sinamahan ko na lang siyang bumalik sa loob ng bahay.

Dahil alam kong kahit ano pa mang mangyayari sa amin sa loob nun ay kakayanin ko dahil nasa tabi ko naman siya. Lahat ay kakayanin ko basta't kasama ko siya.

I sobbed at the thought more than I did yesterday as I reminisce the fear and despair I felt when Preston told me what's going on inside the house. I was ready to risked it all just to get my Veille back... Just to take her safe away from the danger she chose to go.

I can't bear the thoughts of her going through the same pain and suffering she'd been through again on my grandfather's hand. I'm so scared of what would my grandfather do to her just to achieve whatever it is that he truly wanted.

I doubt it's revenge to the Sauvettre anymore.

I took a deep breath before leaving the bed while wiping my tears away and started to fix myself. I can't let myself grieve while rotting on the bed knowing Veille was out there somewhere, never giving up fighting for us.

I need stay strong and witty. My wife needs to be saved before it's too late. I cannot afford to waste any more time while Veille is in captivity, I need to do something before it's over... Before I totally lost her for good this time.

I leave the room with so much burning desire to win this time. I am confident to retaliate back because I have now people around me who are willing to lend us their hands. We were not alone in this battle anymore.

I stopped on my track when I set foot on the living room of Veille's father's secret house and I saw the mess I made just a second we arrived here last night.

A huge sighs escape from my lips as I comb my hair with so much frustration and an embarrassment too, making the Suev brothers and few other men stop cleaning the things that I throw and broke last night.

I know I'm back at my usual habit of breaking things when I couldn't take the heavy emotions I'm feeling but I couldn't really help it. Hindi ko na kase alam san ko ibubunton ang takot at sama ng loob ko sa pag paiwan ng asawa ko't mag isa niyang harapin ang walang hiyang lolo ko.

“G-good afternoon, Ma'am.” sabay pa silang nauutal na bati sa akin. Mabilis akong lumingon sa labas at kusang napatango. Hapon na pala.

Halos buong araw ata akong nagmukmok at nagpakabulok sa kwarto, knowing full well that I have responsibility. I cannot show weakness right now just because Veille wasn't here beside me.

I know she had plans and I trust her to stay alive before we will find her and I will surely find and save her.

“My daughter, where is she?” panic can be heard from my voice. My baby saw me lost it all last night and I know she was beyond traumatised by what happened yesterday.

I can hear here crying seeing me lost my sanity while begging for her momma to come and comfort us. I never let her get to me last night even though she badly wanted to be with me but during that time I was still losing it, so I let Preston be with her for the time being.
