Turning Down Mendrez Brothers (GxG) | #Wattys2019

Chapter 29

Penelope's POV

Nang makabalik kami sa hotel room ay agad na sinara ni Ethan yung pintuan.

"Totoo ba?! Na ikaw si Cielo?! I should have punch you more than what I did earlier!" Inis na inis na sabi ni Ethan.

So nagsuntukan sila kanina? Bakit? Akala ko ba may pinagtanggol lang silang babae kanina.

"Totoo ba?!" Naiinis na rin ako at hindi na makapagpigil.

"Guys pwede ba huminahon kayo". Awat sa amin ni Avery kaya naman kumalma kaming dalawa ni Ethan.

Lumapit si Avery kay Cairo at itinaas yung damit nya nagulat kaming dalawa sa ginawa nya.

I saw his abs pero pati na rin yung mga peklat nya sa balat. Anong.. anong nangyari sa kanya? Dahil ba 'to sa aksidente namin noon?

"Pero lalaki ka, paanong?" Naguguluhang tanong ni Avery.

"What happened to you, brother?" Ethan asked softly.

"Teka nga Ethan, paano ka nakakasigurado na si Cielo nga ito?" Avery asked in confusion.

"Because he called me in my second name. Sya lang ang nakakaalam noon".

"What you have a second name?" Amaze na amaze na sabi ni Avery.

"So what happened two years ago?" I asked him.

He looked directly into my eyes.

"I am not Cielo". He said firmly.

Napabuntong hininga naman kaming tatlo nila Ethan.

"Then explain why Serene kept insisting that you are Cielo, at parang alam nya lahat ng tungkol sa akin". Inis kong sagot sa kanya.

"At alam na naming hindi ka tunay na anak ni Mr. Augustus, you should tell us the truth, Cairo". Hindi na ako nagulat sa sinabi ni Ethan. Alam ko naman na magha-hire talaga sya ng private investigator para lang mahanap si Cielo.

"He's my friend. Mr. Augustus used him to fake his identity to deceived Serene's family that he has a son. And he threatened Serene's family and even killed her mom to prove that he can do anything."

Nagulat kami nang pumasok si Gerard sa kwarto at natahimik sa sinabi nya.

"What an asshole!" Avery commented.

"When you and Cielo was in the hospital the day of your accident, Mr. Augustus made his moved to get Cielo transferred to another hospital and he actually brought Cielo to Europe when she recovered from the accident.

Lahat kami ay tahimik lamang at nakikinig sa sinasabi ni Gerard.

"Doon sya nagpatuloy nagpagaling ng mga sugat nya sa aksidente. And the main reason why Mr. Augustus kept Cielo in his care is because may naiwan sa kanyang milyong-milyong pera na pamana ng magulang nya. And Mr. Augustus wanted that money".

"Then why she didn't even call us? Bakit walang paramdam? Bakit nilihim nya 'to?!" Inis na sabi ni Ethan kay Gerard.

"Dahil she wanted to keep you safe--- Cairo looked directly into my eyes -- all of you to be safe".

Napakunot ang noo ko sa sinabi nya. Bakit?

"Dahil hindi totoong naaksidente kayo ni Cielo, he planned everything and he threatened Cielo that he will do anything just to get rid of you guys kung hindi papayag si Cielo sa gusto nya".

Hindi ko alam kung anong mararamdaman ko ngayon. All this time she's protecting us from that bastard who tried to kill us. My Ciel, I hope you're okay.
