ANTHALIA IVVANOVICH: The Substitute Bride

Chapter 5

Naguguluhan ako sa mga sinabi ni Erine. She thought I can not understand what she's talking about. Pero malinaw sa ala-ala at pang unawa ko ang mga sinabi niya. Of course! Mahal ako ni Ezekiel because he thinks I am his beloved Equija!
Simula noon ikasal kami hindi pa kami nag kakasama ng matagal sa iisang lugar. He would leave early in the morning before I even wake up. Late na rin umuuwi kung saan patulog na ako. I think it's his own way of avoiding me. Kaliwat kanan ang tsismis sa pambababae niya.

Its in my convenient of course pero nakokonsensiya ako. Hindi ko naman dapat sinasaktan ang puso niya dahil nagmamahal lang siya at... niloloko ko lang siya.

Shit Thalia. Its been months, kailangan ko na lang ng dahilan para putulin ang pag sasama namin katulad ng plano ko. Mom amd Khai is now living in Philippines in our old house and old life there, nangako akong susunod but... something's pulling me back.

Napagdesisyonan ko ang lumabas ng mansyon at magtungo sa arena. Nais kong kamustahin ang aking kabayo at magpahangin narin baka sakaling maalis ang agiw sa aking isipan.

Habang palapit sa arena naririnig ko ang mga tinig. Hindi ko inaasahan na mayroon tao sa mga oras na ito masyado naman atang maaga para mag ensayo ang mga sundalo ng hari.

"Hey don't!" Habang papalapit lalo ng namumuo ang aking kunot noo. Maharot na hagikgik ng babae ang sumalubong sa akin. Kaya pumasok ako .

Nakita ko ang aking asawa

Asawa

Nasa ibaba siya ng isang kabayo at nakatingala sa sakay niyon na isang babae.

It's the horse vet doctor in the palace. I met her when she look over my sick arabian horse once .

Ezekiel was all ears looking at the woman while laughing hard.

Kasama ni Ezekiel ang dalawa niyang bantay na nakita ako kaya mabilis na inabisuhan si Ezekiel.

Damn him!

Bakit... bakit ako nakakaramdam ng galit? Naiinis ako na may kasama siyang iba! Its ny first time to see him with his other woman and it... pained  me damn it!

Naramdaman ko ang pag buo ng luha sa mata ko kaya mabilis akong tumalikod at naglakad palabas ng arena.

Why the hell?!

Ezekiel

"Err, I think you owe her explanation Ez ,"

I just stare at her back as she walk out of the arena.
My eyes playing with me. Its impossible I saw pain in my wife's eyes awhile back.

"Ez she saw you. You need to explain to her."

"What to explain?"

Then I shot Camila a look and smile at her

"The dinner, 7 pm in the Miles veranda. I'll see you"
I winked at her

"Bro.."

"Gonna rest, yago I'll see you later. Let's call it a day"

I said to my men.

Then I found myself walking back to our mansion. Its a walking distance from the arena and castle. But I didn't enter ,instead I took a detour to the garden.

There she is.

In her usual long tee, I can't see if she's wearing something down there.

Oh shit, I felt throbbing .

All I could see is her back, she's holding the hose showering her roses .

I saw her back stiffened.
