Later in the afternoon at San Jose national high school.
Johanna was still very angry with Rachel for what she did to him. The both of them walked out of the school and a car approached them. It was Chad's car. Rachel saw the car, but pretended as if she did not. She walked passed the car, but suddenly a hand grabbed her. She turned and saw Chad.
"I will take you home"
"No, I will go home myself" she said and removed her hand from Chad's and turned to leave and then he grabbed her hand and pulled her to his car. "I said I am not going with you, don't you understand?!" she yelled at him and he stopped dead in his tracks and looked at her. "I want to take you home"
"No!" she yelled and pulled her hand from his forcefully.
"But why?" his face was filled to sadness.
"I don't want to" she said without looking at his face. Johanna immediately ran to them. Seeing the sadness on Chad's face, she pitied him. "Rachel, are you crazy? Chad left his work to come here and pick you and you dare say no! Are you out of your senses?!" Johanna shouted at Rachel.
"Go with him if you want to go, but i..." she pointed her hand to her chest and said, "I will never follow him" she turned and left. Chad wanted to run after her, but he remembered what joy told him. "Give her sometime"
Johanna looked at him pitifully and his lips curled into a smile. Johanna did not know if that smile was real or fake, but she knew that Chad was really sad.
"Let's go" he said and pulled Johanna into the car playfully. The talked and laughed on their way. Chad immediately forgot that he had a fight with Rachel.
The car came to a stop and Johanna got down. "Thanks for keeping me company" he smiled.
"I so much had fun all thanks to you" she said and they burst into laughter.
Rachel came out of the house and saw the both of them laughing. It was as if they did not care about her anymore. She felt guilty for what she did to Chad, but she had to do it. Johanna turned and saw Rachel standing not far away from them. Chad smile faded and his smiling face turned into a sad face. Johanna turned and saw Chad face and an idea immediately came up in her head and she smiled.
"Chad, you told me that you were going to apologize to Mina by taking her out for a dinner, right?" Johanna said to Chad.
Taking Mina out for dinner? Rachel face immediately turned red and she felt jealous.
Chad raised his eyebrows and his eyes widened a bit. "Take Mina out for dinner? he thought. But he never said that so what is Johanna trying to do. Johanna immediately winked at him and he understood what she meant. "Play along with me" that want she meant.
"Yes, Rachel is angry at me for hurting Mina so that is my way to apologize to her" he said as he put his hand in his pocket.
Rachel was expecting him to say no, but to her surprise he said yes. She felt that she was going crazy. Chad is going out with another woman.
"What about Rachel? Won't she be angry if she knows that you are going out with a woman?" Johanna asked
"That's what she wanted. For me to apologize to Mina" he said and he took a quick glance at Rachel and his lips showed a satisfying smile.
Rachel face was pale and there were few drops of sweat on her forehead. She wanted to go to him and ask him not to do it, but she remembered that she was still angry at him.
Chad was starting to like this drama as he leaned forward and told something into Johanna's ear. Rachel could not hear what he said and she felt angry immediately.
Johanna's mouth open and she immediately covered it and her eyes widened. "Don't do that Chad. you will hurt Rachel"
"Shhhh... That is what Rachel want" he smiled as he looked another glance at Rachel. "I have to go now so I will prepare myself for the dinner. Mina must be waiting for me" he said and entered the car and it drove off. Johanna smiled proudly at herself. She turned and saw Rachel standing by the door. She pretended not to see her and entered the house.
At the Torres mansion.
Chad walked into the house, but this time with a smiling face. He was happy and proud of himself that finally Rachel will come to him in the end. Mina saw him, but she could not go to him. She watched him enter his room and her face turned sad again.
Everytime she saw Chad, she always wished that he was hers and hers forever. She wished she could just grab him from Rachel, but it was not as easy as she thought.
"What are you thinking of?" analyn asked as she waved her hand in front of Mina's face which brought her back to life. "Don't tell me you are day dreaming?"
"I just wished that it was very easy to have Chad"
Analyn and Darna laughed out so loud. and Darna said, "It's not easy my dear friend. Nothing is easy in this world"
She sighed deeply. "I have to do something fast to get Chad to be mine"
"Now you are talking so what will you do?" Darna asked.
"Secret" she said and took the glass wine in front of her and looked through the glass.
When Chad got into his room, he went to the bathroom to shower, dressed up and curled to bed. He was so tired and he slept off.
At napsan, palawan.
Rachel could not hold her peace again as she went to Johanna and asked her about what Chad and her were discussing.
"Johanna, tell me is it true that Chad is going out with Mina?"
"Why? Yes, he is" she looked at her and continued. "He is doing what you told him to do"
"But I did not tell him to go out with her" she said with sadness in her voice.
"That what he can do to apologize" she said and turned to leave, but Rachel grabbed her arm. "I told him to apologize because..."
"Because of what?! Because he hurt Mina because of you?!" she cut her off immediately. "Do you know that Mina can use this opportunity to steal Chad away from you? Chad loved you and protected you, but you did not appreciate that. Do you know what you did? You just showed him how ungrateful you are"
"I just don't want him to hurt people because of me" she said with regret and sadness on her face.
"Really? You don't want him to hurt people because of you?" Johanna gave a smirk smile. "Do you know how many women in the city that wants Chad for themselves? Do you know how many people that are jealous of you because you are a low, farm worker and he still cares about you. He did not look at you as a farm worker, but as his girlfriend"
Rachel's face turned pale and she felt guilty for making Chad sad. Chad had done a lot of things for her. He stood against his mother for her and she did not remember all those.
She looked up at Johanna and she was embarrassed to even look into her eyes. "What do I do?"
"If I were you, I will call him before he goes out with Mina tonight and I also have an idea"
"What?" Rachel looked at her and asked.
Later at night.
Rachel called Chad that she wanted to meet him at the hills. He got up immediately, dressed up and rushed into his car and it drove off. Mina watched through the window Chad car going out of the mansion. She knew that he wanted to go and meet Rachel again.
At the hills.
Chad got to the hills and found no Rachel. He called out her name but no one answered. He took out his phone and dialed her number. The music from the phone sounded and Chad knew it was Rachel and he followed the sound. He got to where her phone is and to his surprise he found it on the floor.
His heart started beating so fast that he could even hear his heart beat. Did something happened to her? Where did she go? If something happens to Rachel, he won't forgive himself.
"Rachel, are you there?" he called, but no one answered. Then suddenly he heard a guitar playing. The sound was not far from where he was. He walked to the place the sound was coming from and suddenly, he saw the back of the girl playing the guitar. She wore a long gown and it shined in the darkness. Her hair was curled down to her waist and she played the guitar beautifully. He looked up and saw a table. The table was decorated with different coloured and beautiful dishes. There was decoration light hunged above the table and the floor was decorated with red candles. The hills look so beautiful. The girl turned and a smile appeared on her face.
"Chad, I knew you will come" she dropped the guitar and ran to him.
"So what is this?" he asked.
"My sincere apology"
