Chapter 12
older brother
"So you're saying, you're part of the mafia world and is a boss who got engaged? How does it connects to me?"mapait parin ang boses ko dahil engaged na pala siya noon.
Bakit parang nasasaktan ako? Kasi ako ba dapat 'yon? Damn it, Lucy!
"When she turned twenty, we got married...for three fucking years before she disappeared." Alas added as his jaw started to clench. Humigpit din ang paghawak niya sa aking bewang.
Luluwag iyon kapag kalmado siya at nagiging mahigpit naman kapag may nararamdaman siyang nagpapainis sa kaniya.
"N-nawala siya?" naguguluhan kong tanong na ikinatango niya.
He held my arms and intertwined it. "We all thought she died due to an airplane crash...when that happened I almost killed my life, too...but something stopped me."
This time, I have already an idea who that girl is. "Ano 'yon?"
"The truth." He said. "Hindi siya nakasama sa mga nasawi and I was relieved when I heard that...that she's alive but it was too late for me to get her because someone took her away. I tried everything to find her but I failed. Masyadong magaling ang lalaking nagtago sa'yo, Mai."His eyes deeply looked at me.
I knew it. It was me.
"Two years hald passed since that happened and I was thankful that I found you and my men got you..."Pagkasabi niyon ay inamoy niya ang buhok ko.
"P-pero naguhuluhan ako...sinong lalaki ang nagtago sa'kin? Bakit nila ako itinago? Sinong gustong pumatay sa akin? Mga Morfoá? at nasaan ang mga magulang ko?"Ang daming tanong ang pumapasok sa isipan ko.
"You will meet that asshole again who took you away from me, baby. They took you to get revenge and the Morfoá clan wants you dead to make me suffer again. The man who talked to us last time is also a Morfoá but he's not already part of the clan."Paliwanag niya.
"N-nasaan ang mga magulang ko?"nauutal kong tanong.
Somehow, umaasa ako na sana buhay pa sila at hinahanap ako.
"They're dead."
But it made my world stop when he said that. Napalunok na lamang ako. Pero ang weird dahil hindi ako nakakaramdam ng awa.
Maybe because I lost my memories with them and I just wanted to see them... because I haven't been.
"But your uncle and auntie adopted you. You're their long lost lovely heiress,"he whispered as he was stroking my cheek back and forth. "But you don't trust them, Mai...they also want you dead after getting the money from you."
Napakunot ang noo ko sa hindi maintindihang bagay. "P-pero matagal akong nawala...papaano nila makukuha ang pera sa akin?"
"You're the only person who knew where your parents hid the papers but unfortunately...you lose your memories." May pait sa boses ni Alas nang sabihin iyon.
I bit my lower lip as I read how hurt his eyes is. "I'm sorry..."
He just smiled at me. "Even if your mind forgot about me... I'm sure you're heart didn't. Am I correct my wife?"
Kaya pala kahit anong takas ang gusto kong gawin noon ay ayaw niya akong pakawalan.
Ayaw niya akong mawalang muli...dahil asawa niya ako. At kaya pala nakakaramdam ako ng pait dahil nagagalit ako kapag may kausap siyang ibang babae dahil...mahal ko siya.
