Rhea has been looking for her missing mother for a long time because of the question in her mind that she had been worried about for a long time when her father died.
During her Twenty-one year stay in Manila, she found herself in the town of Sta. Carmona. The town where her mother lived.
 It took Rhea three months in this town to find her mother but she failed at all.
So Rhea just chose to stay in that place which was raised by her Mother so that just in case it came back she was here.
But not to her knowledge there is a stranger whom she has long cherished.
He chose not to show up because he did not want to have any connection with each of them.
He prefers to just see Rhea's beautiful face and her addictive body in the distance so that he can not do what should not be done to the woman. Especially if the devil inside his body is trying to get out of his personality.
But Gideon seems to have failed to restrain himself. Because as time goes on, their world is gradually shrinking.

 "are you just a housemate?"

RANCHO SERIES: GIDEON MONTEVERDE

I never thought I would be back here in three weeks. Although I did not last long when I looked for Mama, it seems that I also have a new family here. 


Stage 3, Brain Cancer. I just heard from Auntie Marga that Papa had cancer when I was in Barcelona to fix Papa's established Wine Company. 


Less than a week later I returned to the Philippines to watch my father in the hospital. Because of our flush, I sent Dad to America for treatment. 


Months have passed. He totally recovered. That's what we thought. 


But my father has a lot of complications. 


He suffered from a brain tumor and also he has a weak heart. 


Another day, my father confessed everything that many secrets are hidden in our family 


"Hija, I hope you can forgive us… your Mom. We want to be together. We chose to be selfish" he started to cry that time. Even me. My eyes can't see clearly because of that stupid tears. 


"I wish... Rhea... would have happened. Find your Mom. Tell her I wish I could see her again for the last time" I also don't know why because of the hardship I was experiencing then I just smiled at him. 


Because I want to fulfill his requests. Even just now. 


Dad fought for a few months as well. After he said his requests I tried to find Mama. 


At first, I did not think she was in Barcelona. Because I also stayed there for a long time and I did not see a single strand of her hair. 


I went to her hometown here in Sta. Carmona. 


I also stayed here for a few weeks but I still can't see him. 


So I went back to my father. Frustrated and afraid of the outcome of everything. 


Dad was still in the hospital for a few more days when he repeated the words that broke and ruined my heart. 


"Rhea my daughter, I'm sorry. Dad can't take it anymore. I'm so sick e. I'm tired. c---an I rest now? I-- think it is really gone e. You should always remember that I love you." 


I do not know why? Is it because of the pain or because he is leaving me? 


"don't cry. Rhea, I will always....watch over you" he told me again. 


I could no longer restrain myself and hugged Papa. 


"Pa, even if it hurts. Even if I can't do it anymore... I'll give it all to you. Pa !. Please rest. I love you." My heart was so heavy when Papa's eyes gradually closed even though I knew he hadn't even seen Mama for the last time. His face seems to be the happiest person lost in the world. 


Not because he disappeared with flaws in me. But because he loved me so much.
