The Contract
Catchline:
"Maid niya lang ako! Ina lang ng magiging anak niya! Wala akong karapatang mag-inarte dahil kasalanan ko kung bakit ako nasa ganitong kalagayan. Kailangan kong itatak sa aking isipan na ang nasa sinapupunan ko ay kahalili ng anak niyang namatay— namatay nang dahil sa akin. Oo nga at masakit, pero wala pa ito sa kalingkingan ng nararamdaman niyang sakit no'ng pinatay ko ang anak niya."

He wanted to impress the woman even though she already tasted the food he cooked last time. But it’s almost afternoon, and there was no Olivia showing up. He was already late but he didn’t care at all. After an hour, there was still no sign of Olivia so he decided to reheat the food and bring it to Olivia’s. It’s not Olivia’s behavior to not go out this late. So he was worried because there is surely something wrong with Olivia.He knocked the door several times and when it opened, Olivia’s distorted face welcomed Vanadium. His worry doubled because of it and immediately asked what happened. Olivia just answers that it’s nothing but her voice betrayed her. It’s lifeless and Vanadium knows that she has a problem.

He clearly remembers the awkwardness that the woman felt in her surroundings by just one look at her. She was shy and timid but when their eyes locked, he knew it was not just a simple stare the woman had given to him. He, on the other hand, doesn’t know but he immediately felt something he didn't understand but of course, he chose not to pay attention to it. He doesn’t like the idea that his heart beat fast because of their maid that was staring at him for just a few seconds.
