It was a cold and dark morning of August 11, 2005 when twelve (12) members of the Mindanao Peaceweavers started its way to Sta. Rosa, Laguna to meet the "Maas".

Tarhata "Tata" Maglangit woke up very early that morning to prepare herself for this long awaited visit. This was the first time she would be meeting the "Maas" in a jail and she doesn't know what to do or expect. It has been four years since the "Maas" had been incarcerated and a lot of things had already happened to the Moro National Liberation Front where Tata has been a loyal member. Watching the gloomy sky, Tata said that the weather seems to be uncooperative with the Peaceweavers. Playing the usual optimist, I told her that the sun will come out soon.
