"Sis, wait for me."

I stopped. I sighed for the nth time. Damn it!

"Pwede ba Aaron? Stop. I won't do it. Hell fucking no. "

I rolled my eyes. Tatlong araw niya na akong pinipilit na maging substitute niya sa mission niya. At tatlong araw na rin akong nagtitimpi sa kanya. Baka mamaya kapag sumabog ako masapak ko 'to bigla. Mahirap na.

"Sis, help me with this one. Okay? Babalik din naman ako. It's just that... Ugh!"

Sinabunutan niya yung sarili niya. Frustrated na frustrated na siya dahil hindi niya talaga ako mapilit. Aaron is a silent man. He won't talk to you unless it is really important. Imagine? Sa akin lang siya nagiging madaldal. Dapat lang.

"No."

"Look sis. You will just pretend to be me. I really really need you big time. I will be dead if this mission failed. Ikaw lang ang alam kong makatutulong sa akin. After all, we're twins. Hindi ka na mahihirapan. "

Right. We're freaking twins. Bakit ba ako nagkaroon ng kambal na baliw? Tsk.

I raised my brow.

"Yeah? What's your offer?"

He grinned.

"Name it."

I smirked.

"You sure, twin bro?"

"Yes. Fuck this. I know that smirked of yours. How calculative and manipulative."

He rolled his eyes. I smirked devishly. Prepare your debit card brother, it will cost a lot. I will make you poor.

"Okay then" I told him.

"Really, sis?!" He exclaimed.

"Do you want me to change my mind?"

"Hell fucking no!"

I glared at him.

"Just be sure that you will come back alive. And please be careful. Alam mo naman ang sitwasyon ng pamilya natin."

He smiled. Lumapit siya sakin at niyakap ako. I'm used to it. Aaron may be silent and serious at times but he's really caring and sweet. Nag-iiba bigla ang katauhan namin kapag magkasama kami.

"My little sister is really sweet. Try to smile, eh? And please don't messed up."

I hugged him back.

"Yeah yeah whatever."

When I woke up this morning, I already expected that Aaron's room is empty. He really thought that I will agree with his plan, huh? I thought I'm the one who's calculative here?

I rolled my eyes.

"Good morning, ma'am" One of our maids greeted me. I just nodded and headed towards the dining area. I didn't get the chance to had dinner last night because I am already sleepy. After Aaron kissed my forehead and bid me goodnight slash goodbye, I walked towards my room to clean my body and yeah, to sleep.

I saw him in the dinning area comfortably sipping his black coffee while reading some brown folder.

"You're here."

He gave the folder to his body guard beside him.

"Yeah."

"Where's Aaron?"

"I don't know."

I took bread from the plate that is already serve in front and then put some peanut butter there. Maid gave me a glass of milk. They already know my routine. That's how my breakfast is.

"You don't know?"

"Didn't you hear me?"

I coldly look at him. His jaw clenched in annoyance.

"Respect me, Celestine!" He shouted. His voice echoed around the four corners of the dining area. I felt maid stilled and was not able to move.

"Oh, yeah? Since when did you know the word respect, huh dad?" I sarcastically said the word dad. I hate this, damn it!

"Hindi mo na talaga ako ginalang na bata ka!"

Namumula na siya sa galit pero wala akong pakialam. Para namang may pakialam siya sa aming dalawa ng kakambal ko?

Tumayo ako at nagsimulang maglakad palabas ng dining area. Pero bago ako makalabas nagsalita ulit ang magaling kong ama.

"Hindi pa tayo tapos mag-usap!"

I looked at him coldy. How i hated to be shouted.

"And please, don't call me Celestine. It makes me want to puke. Call me Aira."

With that, I immediately go upstairs. Well, you can tell that me and my so called father doesn't have a good daughter and father relationship.

Umupo ako sa kama at sinimulang tawagan si Aaron. Totoong hindi ko alam kung nasaan siya. Akala siguro ng tatay ko pinagtatakpan ko siya. I rolled my eyes.

"Where are you?!" I shouted as he picks up his phone.

"Kalma, sis. You don't have to shout."

"Old man's asking your whereabouts."

Silence.

"You told him?" His voice was serious.

I closed my eyes in annoyance. Masasapak ko 'to kung nasa harapan ko lang talaga 'to.

"How would i know your whereabouts?! Ni hindi mo nga sinabi sa akin?! Am i a fortune teller?!"

I heard his awkward laugh. Alam kong kinakamot niya na ang batok niya dahil sa katangahan.

"Eto naman, hindi mabiro. I'll just tell you kapag nakabalik na ako okay? I can't tell you right now. Please understand. I love you."

Sasagot pa lang sana ako pero nakarinig ako ng boses na nagpakunot ng noo ko.

"Caleb?! Anong I love you?! Sino yan ha?! Sinasabi ko na nga bat niloloko mo lang ak-"

The call ended.

With my mouth still open. What the hell? Where's my brother? And who the hell is that girl?

My phone suddenly rang. Unknown number. I immediately pick it up. Baka importante. Kakauti lamang ang nakakaalam ng numero ko. I hate calls lalo na kung di naman importante.

"Who's---"

"Mr. Dela Cruz, i already told you to be here at exactly 9'oclock. Where the hell are you?!"

Napaigtad ako sa gulat. Galit ang lalaking kumakausap sa akin ngayon. I looked at my watch. Its already 9:05 in the morning.

Kahit hindi ko nakikita ay alam kong naka kunot ang noo ng lalaking kausap ko ngayon. Sasagot pa lang sana ako na hindi ko alam ang sinasabi niya at hindi ako MR. ngunit naalala ko ang kasunduan namin ng kakambal ko.

Mahina akong napamura.

"I'll be there. Give me one hour to prepare."

"What?! Are you nuts Mr. Dela--"

I ended the call.

Serves you right. Alam kong mali ang ginawa ko at patay ako sa kakambal ko kapag nalaman niyang binabaan ko ang kliyente niya pero bahala na. Mainit ang ulo ko ngayon.

I entered my own bathroom and prepare my self.

The pretending starts now.

Who are you, Aira? Tahanan ng mga kuwento. Tumuklas ngayon
