Edward's POV
Three months ago before Cindy kidnapped Courtney
I've been sitting in my bed as Cindy entered the room and sat beside me. Tatlong araw na siya rito matapos umuwi galing Australia for some business trip. I don't know if it's true because she don't have any proof to prove her reasons. But then, I trust her. She's my love and always be my lover forever.
She looks so tired, not physically but I see it on her face.
"Hon," sabi ko. Niyakap ko siya nang mahigpit. "Are you okay?"
She looked at me with a bunch of problems written on her face. I'm pity this woman.
"I have a problem with my plans," she replied.
Here we are again. Since the day we get together, she opened up a secret about her past. Meron daw isang tao na sumira ng buhay niya. Kung hindi ako nagkakamali, siya si Courtney del Valle, ang 'di umano'y pumatay sa mga magulang niya.
Tinanong ko siya kung bakit hindi niya ito pinakulong ngunit sinabi niyang ten years old palang sila n'on. Besides, mas gusto niya na siya mismo ang magbigay ng sintensya sa babaeng 'yon.
I hate that woman... a lot. She stole everything to Cindy - love, attention and her face. Kinopya niya ang mukha ni Cindy para tuluyang makuha ang lahat ng gusto niya. Sana 'di na lang sila nagkakilala ni Cindy, hindi sana nagkaganito.
"What's the problem?" I asked.
"Hindi ko siya ma-tiyempuhan. Bantay-sarado siya ng mga guards at ng mga tao sa paligid niya. I was planning to get her but... I don't know. I think I need your help," she said.
Regarding the rest of her plan, I have no idea. Sinasarili niya lang kasi, eh. Tapos ngayon sa akin siya lalapit at hihingi ng tulong.
"Okay," sabi ko.
She raised her eyebrow with a fire on her eyes. "I want you to marry Courtney."
What?
Tama ba ang narinig ko? I'll marry that criminal?
"Naririnig mo ba ang sinasabi mo, Cindy?" bumangon ako ng mga oras na 'yon. "I didn't love you just to marry that woman! No, I can't do that."
Kahit parte pa ng plano niya 'yan, hinding-hindi ko pakakasalan ang Courtney na 'yon. Una, dahil sinira niya ang buhay ng babaeng mahal ko. Pangalawa, hindi ko siya kilala in the first place. And finally, baka mapatay ko siya. I don't do dirty works, if she thought so. Pero kapag 'di ko napigilan ang sarili ko, makakagawa talaga ako ng mali.
"Edward, listen to me. We're getting married. Since the plan is settle, I'll pursue it whether our wedding day will crossover my plan. Aalis ako sa makalawa para simulan ang pagdukot kay Courtney. And then at the day of our wedding, uutusan ko siyang magpanggap bilang ako para umattend sa isang birthday party kuno pero ang totoo, wedding ceremony natin. She'll be living in your place for few months while I'm working for the rest of the plan. Kapag okay na, saka ko kukunin ulit si Courtney, parurusahan and things will get back to normal. Simple as that!"
I'm still not convinced. I can't take every second of my life na meron akong kasamang kriminal sa loob ng pamamahay ko. Hindi ko siya kilala, at hindi ko alam ang puwede niyang gawin. Kung noon nga eh, nagawa niyang patayin ang mga magulang ni Cindy at the age of ten, how much more sa panahon ngayon?
