I Love You My Bestfriend (ILYMBF)

Chapter 36: Searching My Bestfriend (Meeting My Old Friend)

-CZARINA-

Ang daming nangyaring hindi ko inaasahan nitong mga nagdaang araw. Like these past days, I have learned that Ford has now an amnesia after what had happened to him 10 years ago. Also, Dixon has given me a deal about helping me to be remembered by my bestfriend in exchange of marrying him. And lastly, the collapse incidents in the hospital.

Ugh! It’s frustrating. Hindi ko alam kung pano ako magsisimula. Kung ano ‘yung uunahin kong i-resolved.

Hindi ako puwedeng umalis ng bahay ngayon. I am expecting a report from my private investigator about the improvements of his investigation. I’m expecting that he has a good news to tell me.

After a moment of silence, someone knocks  behind the main door. Tumayo ako at personal itong pinagbuksan, assuming that it is already my private investigator.

“Are you expecting other visitor except me? I’m sorry if I have not informed you about my arrival. I hope you were too busy to know, so I decided not to bother you”

Dire-diretso siya sa paglalakad at umupo sa may couch. I was really surprised ng siya ang makita ko at hindi ang taong inaasahan kong makita.

“And I thought you knew that I hate surprises. Don’t you?”

“Well, I don’t consider this as a surprise since I have told you ahead of time about this meeting. Have you forgotten?”

He must be referring to my 2nd problem that I have mentioned a while ago.

“I didn’t say yes yet, so we still don’t have a deal. You may leave”

“Really?”

Bigla niyang binuksan ang envelop na hawak-hawak niya pagpasok niya kanina. Na-curious tuloy ako kung ano ang laman non.

“Sayang naman nitong impormasyong ibinigay sa’kin ng private investigator mo. Kung hindi ako nagkakamali, nalaman na niya kung saan matatagpuan ang bestfriend mo. Are you going to waste this opportunity?”

Napaisip ako bigla sa sinabi niya. Hawak na niya ang impormasyong hinahanap ko. ‘Yun nga lang, napakabigat ng kapalit. Ayokong maikasal sa kaniya. Hindi siya ang uri ng lalaking pinapangarap kong makasama. Lalo na‘t pinapakita niya sa’kin kung gaano siya nagbago, especially for worse.

“Hindi lang naman siguro ‘yan ang paraan para magkita kami ulit ‘di ba? I can directly ask Tita Aryan kung saan na sila ngayon nakatira—”

“Which you can’t do since you know to yourself that she won’t tell you where they are. Isa ka sa mga dahilan kung bakit nalagay sa kapahamakan si Ford, and I don’t think that Tita Aryan can still intrust his son to you, especially she knows that Mr. Hye is still alive”

Napapaisip ako sa sinasabi niya. Baka nga kaya hindi sinasabi sa’min ni Tita Aryan ang kalagayan ni Ford at kung nasaan na sila ay dahil sa hindi na niya kami pinagkakatiwalaan.

Still, hindi pa rin ako dapat na pumayag. Masyadong mabigat ang kapalit na hinihingi niya. Hindi ko ‘yun kaya.

“Give me more time to think of it. Hindi madali ang hinihingi mong kapalit”

“Our wedding is scheduled a month from now. I want you to make a decision a week before our wedding day. I hope that is enough for you to make a good decision. Kung hindi kapa nakapagdesisyon sa mga panahon na ‘yan, I will make a decision for you, and that is to marry me by force”
