RYKER's POV

"KHIANA?"

I awoke feeling foggy and confused about where I was. When I opened my eyes, I saw that there was nobody in the room. When I noticed that there's no traces of Khiana, I immediately got out of bed. Napasilip ako sa orasan at namilog ang mata ko nang makita ko kung anong oras na.

Fucking 2 p.m.

I didn't expect to oversleep that long. Last night with Khiana was amazing and I couldn't put it into words. I want to have more nights like that with her. I am sure that I'll never forget that night. It was memorable and just fucking unforgettable.

"Khiana? Are you there?"

Naglakad ako papunta sa bathroom para tignan kung nando'n ba siya. Kumunot ang noo ko nang makita na wala kahit anong senyales ni Khiana. I roamed around my suite and saw no traces of her, and for some reason... My suite feels empty.

At first, I believed that Khiana had most likely returned to her own room, so I hastily got dressed and went downstairs to check for her. However, I did not expect what I saw

    KHIANA's POVI AM SO TIRED.Hindi ko na alam pa ang gagawin ko. These past few days have been so hard for me. Hindi ko alam kung saan pa ako kukuha ng lakas para magpatuloy. Nakakapagod na. Pagod na ako. But, hell, I can't even fucking rest.I sat still in the living room of our house, obliviously fixating on the wall in front of me. What had taken place was incomprehensible to me. I was left with the sense that I had no one to turn to for support. Kahit na binibisita ako ni Tiffany and Eliz palagi para kumustahin ako. Pero hirap na hirap pa rin ako sa sitwasyon ko. Hanggang ngayon ay nanghihina ako."Khiana, saan ka pupunta?" tanong sa akin ni Eliz."Kikitain ko iyong parents ko ngayon. Nakahanap na ako ng libreng abogado para sa kaso nila. This will be a great help," sabi ko at binigyan siya ng maliit na ngiti."Alright. Mag-ingat ka ah."Sa harap ng presinto ay nakita ko na nandoon na ang lawyer na nakausap ko. Nasa early 40's pa lang si Attorney. Mabait at may simpatya siya. Kitan

    RYKER's POV"I WANT TO SEE KHIANA AGAIN."While I was sitting in my car, I couldn't help but stare at the structure that was in front of me. Through the help of a private investigator, I was able to track down Khiana's friend Tiffany and get her address. I have traveled all the way from the suburbs into the heart of the city, to the neighborhood, and I am now parked in front of Tiffany's house, a part of an apartment complex.I felt a mixture of fear and excitement as I stepped out of my car and took a few deep breaths before proceeding. I have always been someone who is willing to take chances, and while I was aware that chasing Khiana constituted taking a chance, I was unable to stop myself from doing it. Mahal ko siya at sigurado na ako sa bagay na 'yon. Kaya handa akong gawin ang lahat para bumalik siya sa akin.Maglalakad na sana ako ng bigla naman tumunog ang cellphone ko. I rolled my eyes as I picked up the call. This is the last time I am picking up his call! Hindi na talaga t

    RYKER's POV"YOU'RE SAFE NOW, MY KHIANA."What had happened was incomprehensible to me. I had just learned that both of Khiana's parents had committed suicide. Because I was not there for her when she needed someone to lean on, I have a profound feeling of regret as well as guilt. Hindi ko ma-imagine ang hirap na pinagdaanan niya noong mga oras na nagkahiwalay kami."I left you because my family needs me," naluluhang sambit niya sa akin. "I never intended to leave you, Ryker. Believe me. Pero nang oras na 'yon ay pakiramdam ko na 'yon ang tamang gawin. Magulo ang isip ko, nabigla ako sa mga nangyayari." she explained to me.When I heard that coming from her I was hurt. How can I be mad at her right now? Now that she's in front of me with these bruises and scratches on her body. How?'Fuck that man!' Sana talaga ay tinuluyan ko na 'yon kanina. Hindi lang dapat suntok ang dapat nakuha niya sa akin."You need to rest, baby."We're in the hospital right now because Khiana has some bruises

    THIRD PERSON's POVKhiana lived with Ryker for almost a week. Pero sa loob ng mga araw na 'yon ay hindi sila masyado nag-iinteract. Ryker even used a separate room and told Khiana that he wanted her comfortable and he wanted to give her space."Hi! Kumain ka na? I cooked food for lunch," Khiana said.Ryker smiled. "Sure."Madalas ito nasa kanyang kwarto dahil busy sa trabaho. He didn't touch her or did something against her will.He really gives her time."I feel sticky," sabi ni Khiana sa sarili niya bago tumingin sa orasan. "Ang bilis ng oras. Alas sais na pala."Naisipan ni Khiana na pumasok sa bathroom para maligo. Katatapos niya lang kasi maglinis para kahit papaano ay makabawi naman siya sa pagpapatuloy sa kanya ni Ryker. Hindi niya naman kasi inaasahan sa mga ganitong bagay ang binata. He literally grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth. He's a busy bachelor. "Finally! Sarap sa feeling!" sabi ni Khiana habang papalabas siya ng shower na katatapos lang maligo.Tanging ang p

    RYKER's POVI could feel the adrenaline pouring through my veins as my memories began to resurface. I recalled being abducted, having my eyes covered, and being thrown into the back of a vehicle. I didn't know where I was headed or what would happen to me. I was only aware of my fear and isolation.I could hear voices and footsteps moving closer and closer as the vehicle traveled for what seemed like hours. I prepared for the worst and pondered if this was the time when my life would end."Sino kayo?" sigaw ko sa kanila."Ang ingay mo! Wala ka ng pakialam kung sino man kami!" sigaw nang isa sa kanila.After that they cover my mouth with duct tape. For them to get information, I underwent beatings and torture. I was compelled to divulge my family's location and our financial situation. The gang members were using all means at their disposal to try and get information out of me and were pursuing me aggressively."Ang swerte naman pala natin, galing sa mayaman na pamilya ang batang 'to."
