P.O.V - SHAIRAH

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLxh52Fc2Y

Hindi kami nagsalita pagkatapos noon.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciDJHWLXPi

Nasa mesa lang ang susi.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPItSTAklFh

S-17.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hVVKJQ4mX

Parang maliit na bagay lang.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3idc3xyvZ

Pero pakiramdam ko, hawak nito ang buong nakaraan namin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC6AXP5Qvz

"Ate..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65HNVU7O2u

Napatingin ako kay Stephanie.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0t6xkPmwZo

"What if we're remembering it wrong?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SagHZ7U5M

Tahimik ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHINwdOyEc

"What if..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUckOioqz7

Napahinto siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR4i5no4ud

"...hindi talaga natin maalala dahil may nangyari pagkatapos?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrfa4ga97E

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang isasagot ko.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKvOlLjCL5

Dahil iyon din ang iniisip ko.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWUwnzrIIP

May malaking bahagi ng gabing iyon na parang binura sa isip namin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7kCS6SUkJ

THAT AFTERNOON

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd1LH2t7kG

Hinahanap namin si Manang.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKps5aa1CQF

Pero wala siya sa kusina.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeENNqBzQYp

Wala rin sa laundry area.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBNKPjxsrc

Hanggang sa nakita namin siyang nasa likod-bahay.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5LuYwvJYq

Nagdidilig ng mga halaman.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijRPWJHnhr

"Manang."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TeesHcMI9

Napalingon siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAhwVsBsPI

"Young Lady."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0Wsq9le59

Lumapit kami.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGW5dBSru3

"May itatanong po kami."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIds6XgXtyu

Tumigil siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP5XyQR3Ft

"Tungkol po sa limang taon na nakalipas."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKuCFZWnAb

Mabilis niyang ibinaba ang hawak na pandilig.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOKJ773Qk7

"Bakit po?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXdqm3Dnrz

Ipinakita ni Stephanie ang susi.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX1qsiOo1H

Nanlaki ang mga mata niya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOxO9UWvEF

"Saan niyo po nakuha iyan?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ50mI1KEY

"Kay Kuya."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGRF6ulT1S

Tahimik siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKQ1QOxVQ4

"Manang..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb3XyHWYx5

"Opo?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAzGITDPfF

"You saw something that night, didn't you?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94iOBeVpNH

Hindi siya sumagot.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RBh9XEYmD

"Please."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF6JuU1ZoS

Mahabang katahimikan.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyJificzYi

Hanggang sa huminga siya nang malalim.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnpsmlgovt

"May nakita po ako."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiklkefMmJ

Napatingin kami sa isa't isa.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N6m7fDvNu

"Who?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1owbVYxQU

Umiling siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiqq9zygY9

"Hindi ko po nakita ang mukha."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpVFr67l3A

"Then what did you see?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbkyO1e3Uq

Napatingin siya sa lumang bahay.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GbBjIJKqk

"May taong lumabas sa storage room."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABazoF5ASp

Nanlamig ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAMNmqneZi

"What time?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk0Vwn0bNp

"Bago mag-alas-diyes."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SHnDWn1Uk

Napakunot ang noo ni Stephanie.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5n8s42dQC

"But you said it was around ten."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQvuaIFXey

"Opo."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5woXPiJ9z

"So you saw someone before the accident?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV5iHASCkq

Tumango siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdPpApYUHI

"Yes."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadpU0QrJk9

"Was it Clifford?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIL29JtVX3

Hindi siya sumagot.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYbkjqPjGk

At ang katahimikang iyon-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRZwxi1rla

sapat na para lalo kaming mag-isip.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5B9oNdIC6

P.O.V - STEPHANIE

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oPO9wFfnt

"Manang, please."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e4PlzsZ5O

Tumingin siya sa akin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnyag7yPIq

"Kung hindi si Clifford... sino?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSFLyQsHID

Umiling siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbSrWxOeie

"Hindi ko po alam."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7XDX7ij54

"Male or female?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAq11MsU5R

"Male."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPq45HpT5C

Nanlamig ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtZw2QCVCg

"What was he wearing?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP3neFgVHl

Saglit siyang nag-isip.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZliRPKAZl

"Dark jacket."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbaVcsDqA8

Napatingin ako kay Ate.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6UmXoDLxP

"Anything else?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqdroLQYhN

"May hawak siyang maliit na bagay."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xPCnZnY2y

"What?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIXazTHU7A

"Parang..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIqoF9drAz

Napakunot ang noo niya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6nVodrtig

"...susi."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5foinaaNf

Napatigil ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHujshfxFt

A key.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRdbPq4rBU

S-17.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXaTo6YAiI

"Did he say anything?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8B7UU8rus

Napatingin sa amin si Manang.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykmSby8DH7

"Isa lang."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImMcTy7s8m

"Ano?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHYvCUj30V

Mahina niyang sinabi:

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCuPB1n81C

"Hindi niya ako nakita."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA9LKweoVU

Napakunot ang noo ko.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJWSp5qfLE

"That's not what he said."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRI2y6ftUt

Napatingin siya sa akin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzSA11amyA

"What?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaMEgWWbqS

"He said..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPtbsulYEv

Huminga siya nang malalim.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMFtHUyRjy

'She doesn't know anything.'

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDigoK1hpw

Nanlamig ang katawan ko.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3reqbrq2G

She.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCuZlCJgfa

Hindi niya sinabi kung sino.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFgvMRihAK

Pero may isang tao kaming agad na naisip.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvHLjYprMV

Ate.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ635A2kpZPu

P.O.V - SHAIRAH

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R3EoGKDEv

"Manang..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxObrCoB3rQ

"Opo?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiv9nxVEpXb

Did he mean me?

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQJESnW2GI

Tahimik siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv21GOqRZ6

Hindi siya tumingin sa akin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiWQggR2bo

At doon ko nakuha ang sagot.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLyEFFUhd4

"What did he think I knew?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4npJAkQ4Ii

Wala.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI5TxbO6b8

"Manang."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9Uz85mnz1

Unti-unting namasa ang mga mata niya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq9ARzvrrX

"Hindi ko po alam."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJTeMHbcAr

Tumalikod siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UOhKXCzXZ

"Pero may isa pa po akong nakita."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBZI96zW7T

Napatingin kami.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14JwgYiMj2

"Ano?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4h2jfnPLI

"After the accident..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ7DUSpWoK

Huminto siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2Yc6CACqi

"...may bumalik sa storage room."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNrwyrbGrD

Nanlamig ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T1CIyLUPT

"Who?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLkbxxOfgn

Dahan-dahan siyang tumingin sa amin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcYqQkt8XY

"Si Master."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElCIM5G1ny

Dad.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSa5fJ3S6tE

Tahimik ang paligid.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRFtoSN5lS

"What did he do?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4Q3vPmN1u

"Hindi ko po alam."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiRddl89Hu

"But I heard him say something."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RJwECGG8M

Lumapit kami.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwq2mLHd12

"What?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg9Z1kSwbG

Mahina niyang sinabi:

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2x9e9Q7Kog

"'Make sure nobody finds this.'"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLomljHUGJj

Walang nagsalita.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26zuvfXC7v

Napatingin ako kay Stephanie.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ642PFpwtEM

At sa unang pagkakataon-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JBUrY4Xjn

hindi na lang si Clifford ang pinagdududahan namin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBPu7LEgQD

Si Dad na rin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtth7AdgM7d

THAT NIGHT

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGGZjYzieX

Nasa kwarto kami.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZoOabRI5w

Nasa mesa ang susi.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjAfGySbOD

Katabi nito ang notebook ni Stellan.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRjY4CH1z4

At ang lumang litrato ni Sean at Clifford.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8LkCde4SH

"Ate..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvaqXLbSr3

"Hmm?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSESGXF18ge

"We need to go back there."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zQ2pwZzU0

Napatingin ako sa kanya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOcgx9aORj

"Sa storage room?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4nMJJLssb

Tumango siya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXm6R1w8lb

"But this time..."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKytwRPRjUJ

Kinuha niya ang susi.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5Czz2SOxi

"...we're going to find out what Dad wanted to hide."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0iE8B2Ym5

Napangiti ako nang bahagya.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDqd2HAouC

Hindi dahil masaya ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA2UfREb3Y

Kundi dahil sa unang pagkakataon-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCu3p5kDoh4

pareho na kami ng hinahanap.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0iFnuUjBC

The truth.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHRNcYUGnY

Pero bago kami makaalis-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DXj6pi5KK

may kumatok sa pinto.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJVdCmhciI

Tok.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglu31OKkUm

Tok.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmtCXWeZXM

Tok.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQuNBbmzWU

Napatingin kami sa isa't isa.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmEGAwY6Lh

"Who is it?"

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWljx62FtId

Walang sumagot.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc3IXamE1f

Muling kumatok.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm1I2QFeGM

Tok.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2QFS277oz

At pagkatapos-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS2fNJkJe1

isang boses.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl7VRJqH06

"Shairah."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDWpJ8VedV

Nanlamig ako.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbqSpNvAvt

Dad.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZKnjam7Fq

"Open the door."

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3ynOXQiDS

Napatingin ako kay Stephanie.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqzOZQG7qR

At sa kamay niya-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsroGyj7vAH

mahigpit pa rin ang hawak sa susi.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNVesSqClP

Hindi namin alam kung alam na ba ni Dad ang ginagawa namin.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6HjdKYCfs

Pero isang bagay ang sigurado-

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdma3yg06Yf

we were running out of time.

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mg3hoVZxH

73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJAfuk4fUq
