I am her DOPPELGANGER (Trans story)

Chapter 10

Before I could open my eyes ay nakaramdam ako ng mga halik mula sa lalaking aking iniibig. Tristan is kissing my cheeks, my forehead, and my lips.

"Good morning, baby." Saad nito sa akin.

"G-good morning." I hoarsely said. And he kissed me on my lips.

"Don't you have work on the Hospital? Si Christian sino ang bantay ng bata?" I immediately asked. He smiled to me. Sumandal siya sa head board ng kama at inunan ko ang dibdib niya.

"He's with my mom." Saad niya sa akin habang masuyong dinadampian ng halik ang ulo ko. What he is doing is sending me goosebumps. I lilke it. No, I love it.

"For sure, you will love him as well." Saad niya.

"Have you told him what happened to her mom?" I asked. Hindi ko nakikita ang emosyon ni Tristan. But as I try to look at him ay kita ko ang lungkot sa emosyon ng mga mata niya.

"Yeah, I did. He is quick witted. But the thing is, sinisisi niya ang sarili niya sa pag-kawala ng mom niya." Saad ni Tristan at batid ko ang lungkot sa boses niya.

Humarap ako sa kaniya at niyakap siya. We were both naked still. Pero natatakpan ng kumot ang ibabang bahagi ng katawan namin.

"I'm sorry for asking you about it."

"Shh. No, you should know it all, baby, I love you. And I promise you that I won't keep secrets from you." He spoke. I kissed him on my lips. Should I tell him about Alvin? Or it will just burden him? I don't know, but I am happy to be in his arms again.

"I love you." Saad ko.

"I love you too, baby."

I look at my reflection in the mirror. I am in the middle of combing my hair ng maalala ko ang kahon na hindi ko pa nabubuksan. The package that was sent to me yesterday. Kasalukuyang nasa baba si Tristan at nag-hahanda ng brunch namin. We decided to go on a date today. We will go to the orphanage. One of the things that I love. I asked him if we will go to his son pero nakadepende daw sa akin. He thinks that I must still be shocked from knowing it so he is letting me decide about it.

I was about to go downstair ng makatanggap ako ng tawag mula sa isang Unknown number.

"I missed you, Rain. Trina and I are alright. I hope you are too. Tope, please look for him still, para sa akin. Galit man ako sa kaniya, but my love won't fade just like that."

"Where are you? Nasaan ka, Trisha? Tell me! Pupuntahan kita. Do you need help? Money or anything! Just tell me. Hmm." Kaagad na saad ko. Natawa siya pero batid ko ang mga luhang pumapatak sa mata niya base sa kaniyang boses.

"Unahin mo muna ang sarili mo, Rain. I have my own money. You know that. Sobra-sobra ang iniwan ng mga magulang ko. I just wanted to distance myself from Tope. Please, bear with me, Rain. You know, I love making dramas. Kaya I might not be calling you often. Don't tell anyone na nag-kausap tayo, please. Lalo na kay Tope. Don't tell him about me." Saad niya.

"Yes, I will. Tope, you really love that shit, aren't you?" I asked. Tumawa siya ng pagak.

"You know me, he is the only person that I have ever loved." Saad nito.

"I gotta go. I still have things to do, honey." Saad nito. I cannot identify where she is now. But I know, she's safe.

"I love you."

"I love you too, my sissy." Saad niya sa akin at tuluyan ng binaba ang tawag. Hindi ko namalayan na may luha pala sa aking mata. I immediately dry it. Knowing Trisha, she's independent, wild, and free. Pero simula ng dumating si Trina, I know she changed. Sa tingin ko ay ginagawa niya ang mga bagay na ito not for her, but for Trina. I think ayaw niyang masaktan ang bata.
