Description: Narrated by Minsu, an 11-year-old autistic boy whose mother Terilla is Filipino. Their life on their own away from an abusive father is still on the verge of crisis, due to the urban renewal plan affecting the neighborhood.

Also from the roof, the neighborhood pharmacist's twin, Uncle, (who gave Minsu a rusty stethoscope), proposes to his mom.
