Carter
"You can't be with her Carter" Tita Matilda said in a serious tone
"Why? Because of Levi?" I asked, getting frustrated with her. I want to run after Alice when she left the island
"Yes! She is bound to marry my son and you are bound to marry Daphne!" she exclaimed, gone the sophistication
"Isn't that the reason why she ran away? She will not marry Levi and..." binalingan ko si Daphne na nakatayo sa tabi nya
"I will not marry you" I said while clenching my fists
It was Daphne who called Mr. Acosta. She was conspiring all along with Tita Matilda
"You can't break our tradition just because you don't like it" mariing sabi nya
"And you can't just push me to that pragmatic marriage just because you value that tradition so much" I equalled her fierceness
Humakbang sya ng isang beses pero agad na pumagitna si Levi at pinigilan sya
"That's enough Mom" he said in a very serious tone
"You have to marry Alliciana Acosta!" giit nito
"I will not marry her. I will not marry someone who is in love and in a relationship with my cousin"
"Are you... disobeying me?" hindi makapaniwalang tanong nito
"You can't manipulate everything Mom. And you're pretty aware that you can't manipulate Carter"
Hindi nakapagsalita si Tita Matilda. He knocked some sense on her
"She is not good for you!"
I angrily turned my gaze to Daphne
"And you are to me?" I spat
Natahimik sya. She started sobbing but who the fuck cares? I started to care less when she did this to me and Alice
"Matagal ko ng sinabi sayo na walang kasal na magaganap. You are not my fiance contrary on what you said to Alice. Anong mahirap intindihin don?"
Bumuhos lalo ang mga luha nya
"I-i love you Carter!"
I snorted
"You ruined my relationship with Alice. Your kind of love is selfish and toxic"
Her eyes watered even more. Hinarap ko si Tita Matilda
"I'm very disappointed Tita"
Tinalikuran ko sila
"Saan ka pupunta?" Tita Matilda asked
"I will take my leave now. I don't want to lose my remaining respect on you" and with that I left them
I went to my yacht. Bago ko pa mapaandar iyon ay may biglang sumakay
"Sasama ako"
Tinignan ko si Levi at hinayaan na lang ito
"Ako rin sasama" Wade sat next to Levi
Pinaandar ko ang yacht. Tahimik lang ang paligid hanggang sa basagin yun ni Levi
"I'm sorry about earlier. Kilala mo naman si Mommy" he sincerely said
"We both know her real reason. It was not all about that tradition. Even my parents didn't like that idea"
"I know. She just want to gain more power, more influence and---"
"Mr. Acosta can provide that. She was securing your future"
