The Good Daughter

TGD 11

"You didn't have a choice o drinamahan ka na naman ng baliw mong kakambal? Does Damon know that you're not his fiancé or should I say bride dahil kasal na kayo?"

"B is he a good kisser?" rinig kong singit ni Ionne.
"Stop it Ionne!" saway ni Nique sa kakambal nya.

"What?"

How I wish I had that same kind of relationship with my twin.

Dominique and Marionne are inseparable.

Unlike my twin and I.

"Ano na B? Magsalita ka! Ano na naman sinabi sa'yo ng baliw mong kakambal at pumayag ka?"

"She just texted me saying that she was somewhere far and that she won't be able to make it to her own wedding. Ako na daw muna ang tumayong Bea."

"Yun lang tapos pumayag ka na? Umamin kang babae ka sigurado ako may sinabi pa yan kaya pumayag ka!"

"She threatened me..."

"Let me guess...she used the Damon card again?"

"Yes..." I said in almost a whisper.

"Grrr!!! Ang sarap talaga sakalin ng kakambal mo!" sabay pang sabi ni Nique at Ionne.

"Paano na yan?"

"I don't know Nique! Hindi ko alam kung kakayanin ko pa!"

Then I heard a knock.

"Tatawag na lang ako ulit sa inyo! Bye!" then I ended the call.

"Come in, bukas yan!"

Bumukas ang pinto and it's Damon.

Tumingin ako sa kanya.

"May kailangan ka ba?"

"My friend is here. The one who I asked to look for Bea. Baka gusto mong marinig ang sasabihin nya."

D POV

I sense her hesitation.

"Pero kung busy ka sa kausap mo sige wag na."

I blurt out.

Nagulat sya sa sinabi ko.

Kahit ako nagulat sa sinabi ko.

"Sige Damon sasama ako. Gusto ko rin naman malaman kung nasaan si  Bea para makaalis na ako."

Why do I feel like she's leaving and not coming back?

So what if she is?

Why do you care?

Tahimik na naglalakad kami papunta sa study room ko.

I open the door and usher her in.

I step inside and lock the door.

"Woah! Magkamukhang magkamukha pala talaga kayo ni Bea!"

Ngumiti sya ng alanganin.

"Stefan Mori at your service Ms. Bella." inabot nya ang kamay nya kay Bella.

They shook hands.

Hindi agad binitawan ni Stefan ang kamay ni Bella.

"Ehem! If you're done introducing yourself then can we get on with what you came here for?"

"Yeah right!"

Tss malandi talaga 'tong Stefan na ito!

I motion for Bella to sit down.

Umupo naman sa tabi nya si Stefan.

I sat opposite them.

Nakatitig na naman si Stefan kay Bella.

"Stefan kapag tapos ka ng titigan ang asawa ko..."

Oh f*ck!
Did I just call Bella my wife?

Napatingin sila pareho sa akin dahil sa sinabi ko.

Halata ang gulat sa mukha nila.

"Oh f*ck it! Can you just tell us where the hell Bea is?" galit na sabi ko.

Nakita kong napangisi si Stefan sa akin.

Umiwas ako ng tingin kay Bella.

"Your runaway bride is in..."
