The reason behind his parents death

"Nay, forget about him" Carissa said and turned to leave, but Elvira grabbed her arm. "Tell me where he lives"

"Nay, I told you to forget about him and he is not father anyways" Carissa did not understand why her mother was so interested in Alex after she has told him that he is not father.

"Please just tell me" she pleaded in a teary eyes. Carissa could not say no to her mother so she told her how she met him and where she met him.

Elvira has been living without her husband ever since he died and she has not heard anything about the person that killed her husband. Any time she goes to the police, they will tell her that their is no lead about her husband's death. The only thing she wanted was justice for her husband's death.

The last time she saw Miguel was when he came to her house asking her about what Nicolas told her before he died. Well, she don't care about him.

At police station 5 south cotabota.

After Alex left manila, he got a call from his friends that they got a tip of where the people that killed his parents are. He rushed down to the station within 10 minutes.

"What did you get?" he said as he rushed into the office.

"You know we have been looking for them for a very long time. These are the CCTV footage we got" Cyrus opened his laptop and played a video. In the video, a man of about 40 years and a woman of the same age and some guards behind them. The woman wore a black burka covering her body from head to toe and the man wore a tubeteika and thobe and a fake mustache so he won't be recognized by the securities. They held their luggage in their hand and it seems like they are in the airport. The woman opened her burka covering her face and Alex already knew she was the one, the one that killed his parents some years ago. She didn't know the CCTV will capture it.

"They are the one going. How are they able to get out of the Philippines?" he asked angrily.

"We are very sorry Alex, we know how important this case is to you"

"Do you know where they have travelled to?"

"They have travelled to Singapore and we don't know when they will be back"

He banged the table angrily, "Do you have another lead?"

"We got the CCTV footage of the both of them in the bank withdrawing some amount of money before they left. Here are the pictures" he handled a file to him and he collected it from him and looked at it.

"I am sorry bro, we promised to help you, but we failed"

"It is not your fault, those people are too powerful and they have escaped death so many times" his voice was still cold as he continued to look at the photos.

13 years ago, Mrs. Eva and Mr. Romualdo were working in cabela corporations, Alex parent company. Mr Romualdo used to work as the marketing manager and Mrs Eva works as his assistant.

They were devoted to their work and supported the cabelas not until one-day they became very jealous of the cabelas and wanted to take over the company.

They stole millions of money from the company and ran away and thought that taking a lot of money from the company will bring the downfall of the company and the cabelas won't be able to pay their debt and they will end up selling the company.

If the cabelas want to sell the company, they will buy the company from them and be the owner of cabela corporations, but to their surprise, the company rose up again.

One night, Mr and Mrs were coming from the company, then they were attacked by armed men. The driver died that night and the cabelas were kidnapped. Alex waited for his parents to come, but they never came.

The next morning, he got a video of his parents been tied with a rope to a pole. His mother had blood on her mouth and her hair were messed up. Mr cabela had bruises all over his face, then two familiar figure came in to the building. The woman wore a blue jean and a baggy shirt and the man wore a black shirt and pant. It was Mrs Eva and Mr Romualdo.

Alex knew they were the one that kidnapped his parents, so he went to the police to file a complaint. He was only eight years old then.

After so many days of searching, they found them in an uncompleted building, but they were already dead. He cried for days and promised to give justice to his parents death.

After his parents died, he worked on his own, he never depended on his parent's money. He went to a police academy school and after graduating, he became an PNP( Philippine national police).

At alvardo street, Binondo.

"Anak, so his parents died when he was young, right?"

"Mhm" she nodded.

"I pity him. He has been alone for a very long time" Dyosa said.

"When he told me the story, I could see hatred and anger in his eyes. Kuya Alex is young, but he has gone through a lot of problems and still survived" she said and lowered her head. "You know, when I first saw him I thought he was my father, he told me that he is not, but I did not believe him not until he told me his story" she raised her head, turned to her mother and smiled, "Do you know that his parents are the owner of cabela corporations here in manila?"

"Really?"

"Yes, I actually can't believe that he is so rich, but you know what, he does not care about his parents money. All he wants is justice" The family talked some more before they went to bed.

Next morning at Britespark International school.

Carissa just resumed school after the two days vacation. Ethan has always been asking for Carissa, but Dyosa did not give him any information of where she is. Ethan heard that Carissa is around so he rushed to her class to see him.

"You are back" he said and smiled at her.

"Mhm" she said as she unpacked her bag.

"You did not tell me that you were leaving"

She raised her head and asked, "Do I need to tell you every of my movement? Or do I have to ask for you permission to leave?"

His smile faded and he said with sadness in his voice, "But you are my friend"

"I know"

"Then why are you treating me like I am nobody to you?"

"I heard that you are going to play in the next basketball match. I can't wait for that day. You know, I am your biggest fan so I will cheer you up that day" she changed the topic.

"Really? You will cheer me up?"

"Yes, why? Do you think I can't cheer you up?"

"No...haha" he laughed.

"It is time for lunch break, let's go"

"Yeah, let's go" he said and they both left the class
