♠ Chapter Twenty-Five ♠
Alessandro:
"And that jerk, Erik? 'Pag nakita ko siyang pumanta rito—kakatayin ko siya right in front of you!" She wouldn't like that coz sure this was not warning. Gagawin ko talaga! Her eyes were in shocked, glancing at me, too horrified.
Tagalang pinangangatawanan niya—but all the emotions seemed not fabricated.
"Nagpapatawa ka ba?" She looked even more pale than before. Pero gaya ng dati, kahit wala itong make-up—she's enchantress as hell!
I clung my head. "Do I f**cking look like a clown to you?" I was holding my patience against her pathetic stage. Bet she was enjoying her own show, thinking about how she managed to do those things three years ago?
How well planned was everything?
Hindi na ako magtataka.
She stepped forward. I sensed her fire. "A-And then, why are you doing this to me? What happen to me three years ago—why now? Ba't ngayon ka lang nagpakilala—in this absurd situation, really?" Damn. Why she sound so bitter and in pain? This was too impeccable! She was asking questions that she best to answer herself—siya lang ang may alam.
And I want her to spill the f*cking cup!
"You don't even tell me your name, why are you doing this to me?"
"Keep pushing your stunts, Ace—you're playing dumb three years ago and now you're doing it again." Naniningkit ang mga mata ko ngayon. I was mad, still mad at her. "Try harder this time. I won't believe your sh*t." Then I shut and locked the door. May sampung private chalet sa isla that was built for us. I went to the one beside her chalet and slammed the door shut.

Ace:
Kahit anong gawin ko, kahit anong pikit ng mga mata ko, I just couldn't sleep! I had always wanted this life, yung ang tanging naririnig mo lang ang musika ng dagat..
Ang hampas ng mga alon, those birds fluttering around the island, and God, this island was truly captivating! Ang ganda-ganda pero siyang kabaliktaran naman kung ba't ako narito.
This was not part of my plan.
Being abducted by someone, yes, a devious gorgeous hunk who addressed himself as my husband! When in fact, isinama lang naman ako ni Erik dito para mag-apply ng trabaho.
Bumangon ako mula sa kama. Tinungo ko ang bintana which I couldn't open dahil naka-lock din pero natatanaw ang ganda ng isla. Sobrang puti ng buhangin habang papalubog na rin ang araw.
Napaiktad ako ng biglang bumukas ang pintoan.
"Eat up," Now, he was standing at the entrance holding this tray full of foods. Nakabihis na rin siya. I couldn't help not to roll my eyes habang papalapit siya ngayon.
"You want me dead and you're feeding me." I looked straight at his eyes. He didn't blink habang inilagay niya ang tray sa kama.
"Then don't," No emotions then he turned his back para lumabas na naman and locked me in. Hinabol ko siya ng ilang hikbang—hinablot ko ang braso niya.
"Ano ba talagang gusto mo sa'kin? Sabihin mo, dahil hindi ako nagpapaganggap na nagka-amnesia ako—I can show you medical proofs if you just let me," His eyes were spitting fire. Nakatingin siya sa kamay ko ngayon na mahigpit na nakahawak sa isang braso niya.
Ngayon ay nakatingin na rin siya sa mga mata ko—we were too close now, inhaling the same air. Intoxicating! Dahil hindi ko alam kung bakit niya ako ginagan'to!
His left hand lifted and held my hand na nakahawak sa braso niya. That cold hand gripped my hand. Sabay palis sa braso niya. "You can meddle in almost everything, Ace. You're f**cking brilliant—you even know how to do mind games just like now," No emotions, full of dangers and warnings. This was him—I wished, I could remember this f**cking guy. Hindi ko alam kung anong ginawa ko sa kaniya—what I had caused him to wrath like this.
"Hindi kita pipilitin kung ayaw mong maniwala." Well, hindi lang naman siya ang taong hindi naniniwala. There were a lot of people like him! Ilang beses na akong nasalang sa interview coz I was looking for a decent job at least, at nang may maambag man lang ako sa pamilya nina Erik for taking care of me for two years while recovering—pero hindi sila naniniwala sa'kin that I had suffered this damn oblivion!
I forgot my past, completely.
Blanko.
Pa-isa-isa kung meron man akong maalala, hindi buo. Nakakabaliw sa kakaisip!
At ngayon, dumagdag itong gagong 'to!
"Just like how I won't believe you as my husband—kasi kung may asawa ako, I'll make sure hindi siya katulad mo." Bumalik ako sa kama at nakatalikod na umupo. He had this ridiculous guts to acquiant himself as my husband? Nakakatawa siya!
