Everything was perfect, Brenda was living in a wealthy and peaceful family. She's studying in a prestigious Academy with plenty of good friends. She has a perfect family, her mom and dad loved her so much just how she loved them. As the time goes by, she noticed something with her mom. Something that she didn't know how to deal with.

Months ago, she overheard a secret conversation between her parents. A fact that unfolds her identity. A secret that could change her life forever.

I instinctively got up from the bench once I have read the message. Mom was in the hospital?? 


Why?? Did something bad happen? I really hope not. 


Dad said I have to go home all by myself and never in my life I went home alone, ever. It's either mom or manong used to drive me home from school. 


It really aggravates me, especially the sky was getting dark, which a sign of heavy rain. Thunder and lightning scares me. 


I don't wanna go home all by myself, what if some bad guys captured me and do something wicked to me? Like what I always see from the news. 


What should I do? Just sit here and wait someone to pick me up? 


"Darling! Over here!" My head snapped to the beeping car. 


"Auntie?!" I asked in surprise. It's Aunt Alegra. What is she doing here? 


"C'mon, let's take you home." She said as the car came toward my direction.
