Someone's Pov
Aaliyah's knees have been weak for a while. Some time has passed, but they still haven't found Liam.
Currently, they are all outside; only Aaliyah's grandmother was left inside the room because she couldn't stop crying. She blames herself because she was with Liam in the room when the child disappeared.
Aaliyah avoids thinking about anything because she is getting weaker.
Daniel has also called the police, even though nothing has been seen on the CCTV and it is not yet time to say that the child is indeed missing. The management of the whole resort also cooperates with them.
"It's not the habit of that little boy to leave, especially without saying goodbye!" Another thing: if the child did leave on his own, they've already found him!
Aaliyah cried even more because of what her mother said. They had gone to every corner of the resort, knocked on every door, and asked questions, but they failed.
"Auntie, Aaliyah will be even more nervous," Lyca pleaded with her mother and brother, who were talking about negative things.
Meanwhile, Nik rushes to run to where they are.
"Something has been seen on CCTV," Nik told them. Aaliyah immediately stood up.
'What?! Where is my son? She asked, crying.
"Come with me," she told them. They immediately followed.
_
It can be seen in the CCTV footage inside Liam's room that a man entered in all black; he had a cap so his face could not be seen his face.
A handkerchief was held, then it was covered over the child's mouth. It was also seen how Liam woke up but immediately fell asleep because of the sleeping something that he put in a handkerchief.
After that, he effortlessly lifted the child out.
At that time, the man did not encounter anyone, so he was able to take the child out easily. It passed behind the resort and in a crowded area, so others wouldn't notice that it seemed like he kidnapped him because it was like his child who fell asleep in his arms. going to the parking area.
Daniel's two hands were closed as they watched the video over and over again.
The people around were already talking, and the police immediately took action.
Aaliyah's tears started to flow.
Daniel immediately supported her because she almost fainted while crying.
'P-- please, h--find me si l--liaam! "Please," she begged him.
"Shhhhh, it's okay." I will find him, no matter what. "Trust me," he whispered to his fiance while comforting her from crying.
But Aaliyah couldn't control her emotions.
"Please take care of her first," Daniel begged Aaliyah's mother and grandmother.
She left with Nik to help find their son.
"Bessy" was all Lyca said while supporting Aaliyah. She can't say that she needs to calm down, because even if she is in this situation, she will not be able to handle it when her son is abducted by bad guy.
"Daughter, take a rest in your room first; we will find liam don't worry to much ."
"I don't want!, I need my son!" Aaliyah answered her mom. She can't accept what's happening.
....
Lyca's POV
More than a day has passed, but there is still no news from the police, even from the private investigators they hired to investigate Liam's whereabouts.
I feel sorry for Ali. I can't see her like this. And of course, I'm worried about Liam. We wish that... We only asked for ransom money when they took him. I hope nothing bad happens. :(
Today we all plan to return to Manila, but since Liam is missing, it looks like we won't be able to return until we find him.
"I'll go out for a while; look at your sister," I told Ali's sister because she just fell asleep while sitting. She cried all night long, and we all couldn't do anything but look at her. T___T
"Okay," she replied.
....
"Babe, where's Ali?" "Babe asked me when I left their room.
'Oh? What's up? What happened? Is there any news? I asked him
But suddenly I was nervous about his face.
Babe's voice cracked, and he seemed to be in tears.
"Babe, I don't know how to say..." But----'
'No! Don't say it! Where is Daniel? I interrupted what he was saying; I couldn't hear him. Although I had a feeling. I can't seem to hear him. Daniel is there, and I will find out from him. Nik likes pranks, so sometimes I don't believe him.
"Babe, he's gone."
I stopped walking and turned to him, who now had tears all over his cheeks.
Oh my god.
'He drowned.'
My tears I had been holding back started to fall.
'Where's he? "I asked in a broken voice.
....
'Liam!!!!!! , No! It's not true! Please! Help my son! Treat him, PLEASE! Ali pleads with the ambulance staff who were called by the resort to retrieve Liam's body, which was found just this afternoon on the beach.
There is almost nothing we can do in our time but cry, even though we can't believe what happened. To this day, I'm still shocked, and I think it's all just a prank and not true.
'L--LIAM Son!!!!!! Hu.hu.hu.hu.hu.hu.hu. It's heartbreaking to see Ali hugging Liam's pale and cold corpse.
It's heartbreaking! Fuck!
T____T
Daniel was there, it was as if heaven and earth were thrown down. His cry was very sad and angry. As Liam's father, he is just now able to be a father to the child after almost two years.
He's staring at his child and his fiance while carrying Liam's corpse. Aaliyah's crying out loud. She's really fainting.
Daniel clenched his fist as if, at any moment, he were ready to kill the person who did this to the child.
I can't take it anymore.
I can't see my friend like this!
"Ma'am, we have to take him," the staff said, forcibly taking Liam's body from Aaliyah's arms.
'Noo!!!!! My child!!!!!! Liam!!!!!!! Ali's voice was broken when Liam was being taken back to the ambulance.
Daniel was relieved, but we were surprised when Ali suddenly passed out!
'Fuck!!! Wake up! Give some fucking help! We need doctors! RIGHT NOW!!! shouted Daniel
We all don't know what to do!
"Let's take her to the clinic!" Babe screamed
He picked her up and took her, running away while we followed and the others were left behind.
The situation's getting worse.
.....
Someone's POV
More than a month has passed since Liam died. They only buried it for three days at Daniel's request because he didn't want his son's corpse to get tired.
On that very day, they all went back to Manila to fix the hill.
Until now, the case has not been closed because the police investigation is still insufficient, and even their private investigator has not yet developed details about the death. of the child. They found out only one thing based on the obtained CCTV footage. The culprit who took the child was also checked in at that resort. planned and made sure no one would find out because they let it out only to drown. They also tried to erase the footage of the CCTV that day, so it was difficult for them to see the actual CCTV footage. But based on the autopsy, the victim was strangled to death and then thrown into the sea.
Daniel doesn't stop every day; even his dad, Alejandro Sy, is furious about what happened. They almost use the entire connection to find the culprit.
Daniel's heart is broken, but he stabilizes and strengthens it for Aaliyah.
Aaliyah was in the hospital for three days the day she passed out, so she never saw her son's hill.
She woke up dumbfounded and out of her mind. pretending like her son is still there.
Daniel couldn't look at the woman he loved like that.
It hardly eats.
Daniel has postponed entering the office to take care of and watch over Aaliyah. He is also living there temporarily because he is afraid of his fiance's condition.
Nik and Lyca's girlfriends, who almost live in their house, are very supportive.
'Daniel, Aaliyah got dressed; hurry up, and she will go to Liam again!' Lyca shouted at Daniel, who was currently talking to someone on the phone.
'What?! Daniel said that he immediately ended the conversation on the phone and quickly went up to Aaliyah's room.
every day Aaliya wants to go to her son's grave. Sometimes it almost took them all day, even overnight, because Aaliyah didn't want to leave. She doesn't want to leave her son, who left him early.
This morning, they came from there.
Around noon, they went home earlier, but now Aaliyah is getting ready to go to Liam again.
"Please, don't be like this," Daniel said seriously, entering the room. He caught up with her on her way out.
"I'm going to see Liam." Maybe he's cold there' she answered for Daniel.
It hurts him that his fiance is like this.
"I know, it still hurts." But please, help yourself. i feel like my heart is breaking when I remember him. But I can't show it because I have to be strong for you, it's triple what you feel because you are his mother. Please... we're not forgetting about him, but please accept the fact that he's been gone for two months" Daniel only now has the courage to tell all this to his fiance.
He knows how it feels because she is Liam's mother.
"I said I was going to see him. Why are you in the way? "Aaliyah said seriously." It seems that, until now, she has not really received the truth.
'Aaliyah! Please!" Daniel shouted while holding both of her shoulders.
'No!!!!! Don't stop me! I'm going to see him! She yelled back at him.
'Stop!'
'I'm leaving!!! '
'Stop it!!! '
"I already said I'm leaving!" '
'Shut up!!!! '
'No!!!! You! SHUT THE FUCK UP! I said I was leaving! Ali tried to take Daniel's arm back.
'WHERE!! FUCK!! Don't do this! Help me, help yourself! I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE! I AM HURT FOR LOSING OUR SON, BUT I CAN'T BE WEAK BECAUSE OF YOU! because I want you to take strength! Every day, it hurts so much to see you like that! FUCK I am his father! IT'S FUCKING HURT LIKE CRAZY! AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO! I GAVE YOU ALMOST TWO MONTHS TO HEAL AT LEAST A LITTLE, BUT LOOK AT YOURSELF!" Daniel released what was inside him.
Aaliyah was crying as she fell to the floor. She seemed to wake up to reality when she saw Daniel like that. She was crying as he looked at Daniel's fist, which was now bleeding from punching the wall earlier.
'Don't fight. Liam is not happy like this. Lyca and Nik suddenly entered the room because they heard the two shouting. Lyca helps Aaliyah walk to the bed.
"You're bleeding," said Nik, who was supporting Daniel.
Daniel went out to calm himself. Nik immediately followed him.
....
On the one hand, a woman gave a man a lot of money.
"Go to another country. Stay far away; take your family with you; it's up to you. We have to be careful because some evidence might slip through. " She said to the man in front of her.
"Yes, ma'am," the man answered politely.
"Thanks for the neat job," she added, smiling mischievously. It seems that she is very happy with her successful plan.
"Thank you very much, ma'am!" "The man said and got out of the woman's car with a huge amount of money that can support a family even in another country.
...
'Bessy? This is your dinner. "Just eat when you're hungry."
Aaliyah turned to Lyca while placing a tray of food on their table in the room. Since Liam's death she doesn't come down to eat, so they bring the food up to her room
"Daughter eat it. My grandson is not happy with what is happening to you. Your child might not do what he must do when you are like that. Daniel left a while ago, he came back with alcohol again. He's always drunk. And your like that. What shall we do with the both of you? Her mother said, making her turn around.
"I'll eat downstairs, mom."
Lyca and her mom looked at each other as if they couldn't believe what she said.
"I'm going down," she said, and she went out of the room first.
It was as if the two suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and followed Aaliyah.
While at the dining table, Aaliyah was trying to swallow the food so that her companions would not worry. It's like his son won't be sad if he ever sees her mom.
"Eat it," said her grandmother.
She just nodded and continued eating.
But unexpectedly. Her memory came back to the moments when her son was with her right here at the dinner table. She even tests it when the fish, is thorny. She remembered their teasing and her son's happy smile while eating.
She didn't realize that her tears were falling one after another.
"B-besssy," Lyca's voice cracked as she called her as she noticed that she was eating steadily, but the tears continued to flow.
They all stopped eating and started crying, one by one.
They all remembered for a moment the silly and happy child that they no longer shared food with.
"Just cry," said Aaliyah's mom while stroking her back.
"I miss Liam so bad it's too much. I want to hug him again, hear his voice, and laugh"
"He never even got to go to school and play outside with other children. He's a cancer survivor, and then he'll just die like that? Why?! Who?! Who and why do they have to do that to my son?"
Aaliyah said to them while crying.
Meanwhile, Daniel and Nik were watching and listening to them in the distance. He's happy, that Aaliyah tried to come down after their argument earlier, but it doesn't seem like she can do it right now.
The wound in her heart was too deep.
With his hand clenched, he just went back outside to continue the interrupted drinking with Nik.
"Bro, one of our investigators said something when I talked to them last time." Nik started when they returned to the veranda.
"What is that?" '
"At that time, there is a possibility that one of the resort people is involved." Remember, how long did it take to back up some CCTV footage that was deleted? There's something fishy. They need to gather more evidence to investigate the resort as well, and they'll update us soon," Nik explained to him.
Daniel clenched his fist.
He was very angry and promised himself that when the killer of his child was found, he would kill him himself.
