"What is that?" George then opened the four daylight optic holes and found out that its a food tray.

"Albrecht must have left it here. I'll go before she wakes up." He then placed the bamboo food tray on the table and left to request both Albrecht and Baldur to come with him and witness his engagement with Amanda back in 1938.

At the ancestral wooden house, the brothers greeted him vibrantly.

" Good to see you George." Baldur smiled.

Albrecht then moved closer and jokily punched George.

" Hey brother, how are you? Hope you're not feelin' bad anymore."

" Thanks Albrecht, but you're a terrible naughty brother-in-law." He smirked.

"So, what's up? Baldur asked.

" He was still hesitant after reading from Sr. Sibal's journal that Amanda and I was married. I insisted that its not true."

" I have a solution to easily resolve that issue." Albrecht smiled.

" What is that?" Baldur asked.

"Baldur, the fact that we attended your church wedding and you walked through the aisle with Amanda. You have your marriage contract and the name of your wife is Amanda.

"That's cool, let's go up now and she must be waiting for us." George said.

While they were on their way going up, George was nervous and he never knew why. In fact, he ran and the brothers even wondered so they also followed and even breathless on the staircase. When they all reached inside, Magee wasn't around anymore. The brothers were stuck on the corner and breathe out. When George went inside the bedroom and sat down restlessly, he found a note left by Magee

May 28, 1942

George, Baldur and Kuya,

I had a ton of embarra.s.sment for just a moment last night. But hope you all respect my privacy and silence now. I am just around and I'll survive in the midst of this war. I promise I will not walk away if it's not necessary. There's no need to search for me, I don't need it. From now on, I have full time in reading the journal - I need to finish it to really know Amanda. I'd like to know the previous woman of my husband not to create friction but to understand him more. Prior to this war, I've already heard her name. This isn't childish but according to uncle Chuck, as written by Lolo Sibal that George , Baldur and Albrecht didn't know that Amanda used another fake marriage contract with George's signature over it. When I was second year, Lolo told me it wasn't a problem, Amanda already stayed with another man. So there, that's why I am just preserving myself, if you were all in my shoe, you will understand me deeply. This war prevented me to a lot of ways and it doesn't mean that the war will forever control me. But soon you'll all will see me back when the angel fruit trees will bear fruits. Its the agreement. My husband and I will sleep together, live together as what normal couples do. Likewise, since I don't have the resources, I want you guys to give me food, if not, please leave me something to cook. Don't you all attempt to test me by not giving me food, I will be forced to escape and live outside. I'd like to a.s.sure you all that I am just around this Kabang mountain, hiding safely. Moreover, since George is my husband ( I'm actually madly in love with him). He could come to chitchat with me through a note. I'll respond through a note too. George, you can only leave your note here in the evening. If the door is locked I am inside if its open it means I'm not around so you can come. Don't stay long. I am a woman and have so many things to do for myself as part of my preservation.
