Rachel had always been coming to the hospital to visit Mina. Chad won't allow her to sleep over, so she won't fall sick. He will stay with Mina at night because of Rachel.
Sometimes he won't sleep in the room because the couch is uncomfortable for him. He will sleep in the car with his driver and bodyguard.
It might not be appropriate, but he prefers sleeping in the car than sharing a room with Mina. She is always asking questions after questions which gave him headache.
Analyn said, "Mina I have done what you told me to do. Our plans will be successful"
Mina raised her eyebrow questioningly, "Our plans?"
Analyn immediately realised what she had said. "Oh... Am sorry. Your plans I mean"
Mina had planned this from the start. Analyn and Darna were only helping her.
Mina smiled and got down from the bed and she walked towards the window. The winds blew constantly across her face and the wind caught her loose hair, carrying it upward revealing her long white neck.
She imagined herself being Chad's girlfriend and couldn't help, but smile.
She thought, 'My life will be so complete with you Chad. Just wait for a day or two and you will be mine'
That was her only dream; For her to have Chad.
She turned to her friends and smiled, "He will be coming tonight. The both of you should get yourself ready. Everything must go as planned today. I can't let this opportunity slip pass me" she turned to the window again and said, "Thanks to you Rachel. You have made things so easy for me. I will pay you for everything soon"
As soon as she finished talking, the door opened and Chad came inside. Mina turned and smiled, "Chad, I was waiting for you to come"
Chad did not respond.
However, Mina was used to him not answering her. She didn't take it serious. She signaled to her friends to leave the room. They nodded, took their bags and left the room leaving only Chad and Mina in the room.
Mina's gaze rested on Chad and she smiled. She walked towards him and placed her hand on his chest. "Chad, I have missed you so much" Then her hand began to move gently from his chest to his neck. She curled her arms around his neck.
Chad's expression changed immediately. His beautiful eyes darkened immediately. He grabbed her arms and immediately removed it from his neck. "Don't touch me!" his cold voice was enough to freeze her body immediately.
"Chad I love you so much"
"How many times do I have to make it clear to you that I don't love you. The only person I love is Rachel. Don't you understand?"
Mina reached out her hand and dipped her fingers. She had always hated the name Rachel and now Chad is saying it.
Why is it always her?
Chad frowned his eyebrows angrily. He was not ready to waste his time talking to this foolish woman. He turned to leave the room and suddenly, he felt Mina's arms around his waist.
He tried to pull away from her, but she tightened her grip around his waist.
"Chad please, I am begging you. Don't do this to me" Mina begged him.
"Let me go!" He stretched his arm backward to push her away.
Mina fell directly to the ground and looked up at him. Tears rolled down her cheeks immediately.
He looked at Mina and said, "Let me get one thing straight. I don't love you because the only one I love is Rachel. Are you not ashamed of yourself? You call yourself Rachel's friend and look at what you are doing behind her back. Trying to get her boyfriend. I thought you said you have forgotten about me?"
Mima felt sheepish. She had said all those because she was pretending. She didn't want to give up now. She stood up and curled her arms around his neck.
When Chad regained his bearing, Mina had already forced a hard kiss onto him roughly and now, he was standing there, shocked.
Chad pushed her away and she fell to the floor. Anger began to rise slowly in him. He lowered his head to look at Mina and yelled, "Are you out of your mind Mina"
Mina did not respond. She looked at him calmly as if she had done nothing wrong. Chad walked out of the room, the door closed with a thud.
Mina stood up and smiled, "Finally, it's done.
Next morning at napsan, palawan.
Rachel was dressed in her uniform and was ready to leave the house when her phone rang. She pulled her phone from her pocket. It was a message from an unknown number. She tapped the phone to open the message and she was stunned.
It was a photo of Mina and Chad kissing.
Her eyes opened wide and her body immediately froze. Her hands began to tremble and her phone fell from her hand. She stumbled back a few steps almost falling and Johanna who was behind her caught her immediately.
"Rachel what happened?" Johanna was confused.
Rachel opened her mouth, but words couldn't come out. Tears just continued to fall down her cheeks. Johanna helped her sit down on a chair and asked again, "Rachel calm down and tell me what happened? I wouldn't understand if you continue to cry like this" Johanna's voice gave a hint of worry.
Rachel could not say a word; she raised her delicate finger and pointed it at her phone. Johanna gazed shifted to the phone.
She was confused. Why is Rachel pointing at her phone? Why is she crying because of her phone?
Johanna walked quickly towards the phone, picked it up and looked at it. Her eyes immediately widened. She blinked many times and rubbed her eyes to be sure she was not seeing the wrong thing.
She knew from the very first time Mina came to their house to apologize that she was only pretending. She had warned Rachel several times, but Rachel was just too stubborn. Rachel believed that Mina was only a good friend.
Mrs beltran came out of her room with a basket and cutlass with her and she saw her daughter crying. She rushed to her and knelt down beside her. "Rachel why are you crying?"
Johanna turned to her and handed the phone over to Mrs beltran. She collected it and looked at it. She couldn't believe her eyes too.
"Chad can't cheat on you Rachel. Chad will never do anything to hurt you. I think it's Mina that forced him. That Mina is evil"
Johanna knew Chad can't do such. Chad won't dare to cheat on Rachel. Mrs beltran also agreed with Johanna.
Thinking of the photo again, Rachel's heart sank. She held her head in her hand and screamed before running out of the house. Johanna and Mrs beltran followed her out.
"Aunt, you should stay at home. I will go after Rachel" Johanna said before going after Rachel.
Mrs beltran stood beside the door and prayed that everything will be alright.

Rachel opened the door of the car and was about to climb in when a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist. She looked back and it was Joanna.
"Where are you going to now?" Johanna asked.
Rachel did not respond. She tried to remove her hand, but Johanna tightened her grip.
"What do you want to do now? "
"I am going to meet Chad. I want to know why he did this to me" she said while crying.
Johanna released her hand and allow her to enter the car and then she entered with her.
Mac noticed Rachel's face and could not help, but ask, "Ma'am what's wrong with you?"
"Drive to the hospital!" she shouted angrily.
Mac had never seen this side of Rachel before. She was always gentle, calm and caring and she had never shouted on them not even once, but today she is different. Everytime, she wore a beautiful smile whenever she is going to school, but now her face is filled with sadness, hatred and anger.
The driver immediately started the car and drove towards the hospital. Rachel clenched her fist and her sharp nails dug into her palm and it started bleeding.
Johanna lowered her head subconsciously and saw Rachel's hand. She tried to touch Rachel's hand, but Rachel evade her touch.
"Where is my phone?" Rachel asked.
"Here" Johanna handed over the phone to her and Rachel collected it.
The car soon came to a stop at the hospital. Rachel got down from the car immediately and Johanna followed her. She was afraid that Rachel might do something terrible.
Just as they got down from the car, Chad was also coming out of the hospital with his mother. Behind them were Mina, her mother and her friend. Mina had just be discharged from the hospital and they were taking her home.
Rachel immediately ran to Chad and gave him a slap. They were all surprised to see Rachel slap Chad without any reason. They slap made his face turn. He turned his head slowly to look at Rachel and asked, "What happened?" his voice was gentle and calm.
Rachel raised her hand to slap Chad again, but this time he was prepared. Just as she was about to slap him, he grabbed her wrist and asked, "What happened to you?"
Rachel immediately burst into tears and slapped her phone on Chad's chest. "This is what happened" the phone fell to the ground.
Chad released her hand, lowered his head, bent down and picked the phone. His face changed drastically when he saw the photo. Rachel snapped and slapped him again. "Did you sleep with her?"
