"I can't even raise you well." "And there..." "And it's only for the mean time anyway." "Are you still mad at your father?" "Hey, Ariel!" "You're here." "Let's play." "Wait a minute." "I'm still resting." "Just rest there while we're playing." "Come on." "Let's play." "She doesn't stop eating." "That's because she's a pig." "Oh, Ariel."

"You'll be an actress when you grow up, Rosemary." "And you Dennis, you will be a doctor." "I don't want to be a doctor." "I want to be a policeman." "You changed again." "You always change yours everyday." "How about you, Ariel?" "Me?" "I want your mom's pig to finally give birth." "So I can get the piglet." "That's not a dream." "I'll take care of the pig."

"My children were brought up by this." "How could that be poison?" "Do you believe that I did that?" "Whether you did it or not, it's not important." "What I'm asking is If you believe that I did that." "You can't do that." "I can't understand." "Why did God let this happen?" "I always go to church." "I give the church 20 percent of what I earn." "I love the children." "I cooked for them for more than 20 years." "They were like my own children." "Why will God use me to kill them?" "Why?" "Why?" "!" "I can't understand." "I can't understand." "Make me understand." "I can't understand." "Mother, that's enough." "Mother." "That's enough, mother." "My son, make me understand." "Ms. Maring." "Ms. Maring!" "Ms. Maring!" "Let's go, mother." "Let's go inside." "I'm suffering because of you!" "Have patience." "Thank you." "Oh my!" "If not for my child's death, the government won't help me." "Why are you taking that?" "Sign here." "This is my right." "I'm taking it because it's mine." "Thank you." "I'll sign here." "Thank you." "There." "That's just trash." "Why is mine less?"

"We made a mistake, ma'am." "Because your child wasn't even brought to the hospital, right?" "Just give us back the envelope." "There!" "Shove it on your huge belly!" "You're like a pregnant woman!" "I thought you're kind." "Thank you." "You will get it." "You'll have it." "Everyone will get their own." "Please quiet." "Quiet!" "Quiet!" "Ma'am, please sign." "You embarrassed me." "You demon!" "Ouch!" "Does it hurt?" "What you did to me was more painful!" "You should've died with those other kids!" "You could've been more useful for us!" "Here's more." "You're probably asking why the kids died." "Who killed the kids?" "Why did God give lives to those children then take it back?" "The bible said, children are the luckiest one among us." "But why did it happen?" "Why don't you ask Grandma Idang?" "Some say it is God's punishment." "Because we are sinners." "But God isn't like that." "It's not His concept of what)ustice is." "Our God is righteous." "You drew here that you also died." "You don't have anything to do with what happened." "You shouldn't be guilty that you lived and they died." "Do you love your friends so much?" "Yes." "Do you miss them?" "Yes." "You shouldn't blame yourself for what happened." "It's Grandma Idang." "What about her?" "It's her fault." "She killed my friends." "Go on." "Put bars around the whole house." "You can put a lock too since I'm like in jail anyway." "I told you it's dangerous." "And what do you want me to do here the whole day?" "Lie down?" "!" "You know what's your problem, mother?" "What's your fault?" "Even when I was young, you're so hard headed!" "Yes!" "That's why I gave birth to hardheaded children." "all of you!" "Even your ungrateful siblings!" "I raised you with my hard headedness." "I raised you with cassava!" "I think we should )ust move to another town." "Is that your solution to the problem?" "Go somewhere else?" "!" "I don't want to!" "I live here!" "I won't leave!" "If you want, you can leave yourself!" "Aren't you leaving?" "There!" "Your ship's waiting!" "Aren't you scared of what they can do to you?" "And what will they do to me?" "They will kill me?" "!" "Okay, they can kill me!" "They can stuff my mouth with those cassavas that they call poisonous!" "If only killing myself is not a sin to God," "I've already killed myself!" "If you're scared, then leave." "Even when you were a kid, you've always been a coward!" "You )ust keep on following me around!" "That's why among your siblings, you're the one I don't respect!" "You never learned how to fight!" "All you do is follow me!" "You've always been a loser!" "Go on!" "Go on!" "Leave!" "Leave!" "Leave!" "Leave!" "Leave!" "Leave!" "Leave!" "Don't ever come back!" "Don't ever come back!" "Get out!" "Ariel, what are you doing?" "What do you need?" "Go home, Ariel." "I have many things to do." "Wait a minute." "I changed my mind." "Forget what I promised you." "I won't give you a piglet anymore." "Go home!" "You're drunk again?" "!" "You're drunk again?" "!" "Don't you have anything else for me to do but clean your vomit?" "!" "Damn you!" "Damn you!" "Damn you!" "And you!" "What else are you doing here?" "!" "Leave!" "Get out!" "You're all a burden!" "Steal it." "The piglet is yours, right?" "Steal it!" "You're unbelievable." "You had a deal that the piglet is yours." "But she didn't give it to you!" "Then, just steal it!" "Aren't we doing the wrong thing?" "Please don't be noisy!" "Hurry up!" "Wait." "Hold it." "You go first." "Hurry!" "Hurry." "They might see us." "Hurry." "Who's there?" "Hurry!" "Hurry." "Who's there?" "There." "There." "Where?" "Here?" "Yes." "Here." "Give me the pig." "Come here." "Hold it tight." "Okay." "Let's tie it." "Hold it tight." "Hold it tight." "Like this." "Hold it here." "There." "Okay." "Wait." "Don't move!" "There." "Hurry." "There it is." "Pull it." "There." "Then what are we going to do?" "Let's just stay here." "Tomorrow... morning, we'll sell this." "Is it right?" "You need money, right?" "You want to save, right?" "So your mom won't send you to your dad." "How did you know that?" "Of course!" "You know why?" "I need money too." "I want to leave my evil aunt." "She's too grumpy!" "I want to go to Manila." "Hey!" "Once we've sold this, we'll share okay?" "!" "A pig's nose is flat." "Just like me and my moms." "And dark too." "Don't you remember anything about your mom?" "Even my father!" "Nothing!" "They died too soon." "Let's not talk about parents." "Come on." "Let's sleep now." "Stay there." "Stay there." "Stay here." "Sleep here." "What is it?" "This piglet looks sick." "Pigs are really like that." "Their eyes are smoky." "No." "Look." "Maybe he needs to drink milk." "We took it so early." "I know what we're going to do." "Piglet, please wake up." "Ride on with us." "I told you this one's sick." "We should've brought Decolgen." "That's a medicine for all kinds of sickness." "Wait a minute." "He's sweating." "Do pigs sweat?" "That's sweat!" "That could be his pee." "Sweat." "It smells like pee." "That's pee." "Sweat." "Pee!" "You're so noisy." "It's your fault!" "It's unconscious." "He must've eaten cassava!" "But he's not moving anymore!" "Let's pray for him!" "You do it." "I don't know how to pray." "It should be the both of us." "We took him." "Come on." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "He's dead." "No." "Hey." "There he goes." "He's alive." "Alive?" "He's dead." "See?" "!" "He's alive!" "He's like an actor just like Nora Aunor." "Who's that?" "I don't know either." "My aunt said she's a great actress." "She's Nora Aunor." "You know what?" "We should bring him back." "He almost died when we took him." "It means that what we did was wrong." "So, because he almost died, then we should bring him back?" "What was that?" "Come on!" "Ms. Maring's pitiful." "She lost her child then she'll lose her pig too." "So what?" "It's her fault." "Look." "She was supposed to give you this piglet." "She didn't give it to you that's why you took what's yours." "That's still wrong." "She didn't give it to me." "But you worked for it." "Pig's food is smelly!" "But still I'm going to bring this back." "Wait." "Wait." "Wait." "Wait." "You have to ask permission from me." "That's also my money." "This is my piglet, right?" "That's why you can steal it." "But why are you saying that this is also your money?" "I also worked for that." "And I'm the one who planned to steal it." "Remember that." "I'm still going to return this." "Wait." "Wait." "Wait." "Wait." "If you bring that back, I'll tell the owner that you're the one who stole it." "Why?" "Who's going to believe you?" "You're an idiot If you bring that back." "But you're bad." "You know what?" "You're an idiot." "You and your friends are idiots." "Look what happened." "Your friends died." "Because they are idiots." "And you almost died too!" "That's why you're also an idiot!" "You!" "You're shabby!" "You always have wounds that's why you don't have friends!" "I'd rather stay this way than be like your idiotic friends!" "You." "You don't have parents." "And you." "You have no father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "No father!" "Why did they release Grandma Idang?" "!" "Why did they release Grandma Idang?" "!" "Those who hit people on the road!" "Even If they didn't mean it, they end up in jail!" "She killed lots of children!" "Even my child!" "Dude, it's because she's already old." "Why?" "Does it mean that when you're old, it's okay for you to kill?" "!" "No." "No." "No." "Let's drink!" "Okay." "Okay." "Drink it up!" "You're taking too long." "Me dude, my wife's really an idiot!" "She wanted my nephew to be one of those kids!" "She's crazy." "That motherf'cker!" "She'll have her day." "What is it?" "I'm sorry." "It's because of our deal... but I'm sorry." "Hey, Ariel!" "What are you doing here?" "It's getting late!" "Aren't you scared of this place?" "I heard your classmates are haunting here." "Come on!" "I'll go ahead!" "You'll see." "Your classmates will haunt you!" "It's late and this kid is still here." "Behave, okay?" "Are you really haunting?" "I was worried about you!" "I thought something bad happened to you!" "Mother, I did something wrong!" "Come, I have a surprise for you." "Come here!" "There it is!" "Aling Maring brought it here!" "She said it's for you!" "Why are you crying?" "Aren't you supposed to be happy?" "!" "Mother, I've been bad!" "I did something bad." "I understand you!" "Mother..." "I'm okay with it now." "What?" "I will live with father." "What made you think about that?" "It's because I always give you problems." "It's nothing!" "And mother, you're right!" "Father is pitiful." "But is that really okay with you?" "Have you really forgiven your father?" "I don't know." "Let's not rush into things, okay son?" "If it's not what you really want, let's wait for a while." "I don't want you to live there with a heavy heart." "I know you're a good kid." "Someday you'll learn that humans really make mistakes." "They don't mean to hurt others." "Especially the ones they love." "Come here." "Aling Maring, thank you." "I know that's what Rosemary wants me to do." "To give you the piglet." "But why is it like thatAriel?" "I thought, after doing that... there'd be less pain in my heart." "ButAriel..." "The pain in my heart hasn't faded away." "It hurts so much, Ariel." "I miss Rosemary so much." "Me too." "She wanted to be an actress." "I know she'll be famous." "She was supposed to get us out of poverty." "It hurts so bad." "It hurts so bad." "Be honest with me." "Is it true that the kids are haunting in the school?" "I don't know, Ma'am." "I hope my daughter will appear to me." "I just want to see her." "If you see her, tell her to show up to me." "Tell her to pity her mother." "And tell her to appear to me." "Okay?" "I know that my child is not in peace." "She needs justice." "Grandma Idang isn't in )ail yet." "She's not in jail yet." "Mother." "Hey, Ariel!" "Don't you have classes?" "The social welfare people talked to us again." "What did you draw today?" "!" "Let me see?" "He's mad at Grandma Idang." "I can't blame him." "I don't want him to grow up as a resentful and unforgiving person." "Don't you think the kid needs someone to blame?" "So that he understands what's happening?" "So that he wouldn't blame himself." "That's what I did with what happened to us before." "I blamed myself." "Lorna, please forgive me." "Forgive me If I left you before." "I've forgiven you a long time ago." "You should forgive yourself." "What are you doing here?" "Aren't you supposed to be in )ail?" "lsn't your conscience haunting you?" "How dare you show up in here!" "What a thick face you have!" "You're heartless!" "A murderer!" "You should be in hell!" "You shameless old woman!" "Do you know what you did?" "You killed my child!" "You're so shameless!" "You don't have a heart!" "If we're not in front of my child's grave right now," "I would kill you too!" "I would kill you too!" "Do you know that?" "Evil!" "Aren't you scared of me?" "Well, I don't look like a monster, right?" "What's that on your legs?" "What happened?" "I tripped." "Oh my!" "Oh, there's a leaf right there!" "Get one for me." "Go on." "That's enough." "Give it to me." "Give it to me, hurry!" "Sit there." "Put your legs here." "Put it here." "There." "Do you know that this is a good medicine?" "When I was a kid," "My father always takes me here." "Because there are a lot of good medicines like this here in the forest." "You'll get better now." "I always save snacks for you." "Do you know that?" "I know." "Does it hurt?" "Are you a coward?" "There you go." "There you go." "It'll heal soon." "Please don't cry." "You're such a crybaby." "How about you?" "Does it hurt?" "You're a coward, aren't you?" "You took it off." "Come here." "Embrace me." "You believed in what they said, didn't you?" "You think the ghosts are going to appear?" "There are no ghosts!" "If there are ghosts, then my parents would've haunted my aunt!" "Why?"
