Chapter 17.1
Binihisan na ni Gabby ang mga anak pagkatapos nilang mag-agahan. Not a shadow of Matt returned. Nabanggit naman ni Gabby na 9 AM ang usapan niya with the broker. They were leaving already.
She wore faded blue jeans, and a plain light blue shirt at pinarisan lang ng rubber shoes. She wanted to be comfortable as she expected that it would be a whole day activity. Pinag shorts niya naman si Chico and a light blue shirt, pinagsuot niya ito ng cap. Naghanda din siya ng light blue na shirt para kay Mango but she insisted na gusto nitong isuot ang blue dress na pinilit nitong bilhin ni Matt when they went out.

Kanina pa nakatitig si Matt at his laptop. He was looking at the twins’ picture again. They were swaddled in blue and yellow blankets. There were no pictures of Gabby after the twins were born.

“ALL ALONG I THOUGHT YOU TWO ARE OKAY.” Nag-aalalang sambit ni Cheryl.Sinulyapan ni Gabby ang video nito sa monitor at nakakunot nga ang noo nito.
