San Vicente 2: Fallacious ✅

CHAPTER 5

DAY 7

"THAT BASTARD OF A GUY DID WHAT?" gulat na gulat si Louisa nang magkita uli sila at maikwento niya ang dilemma niya ngayon.

Hindi kasi ito nakadalo sa kasal niya dahil may mga biglang nangyari sa kaso na hawak nito up north. Nakipagkita ito para kamustahin ang kasal niya at married life. She's married alright, but not to the right twin! How fucked up can this scenario be?

"I married Andrew Dela Merced, not Adrian. Not my actual boyfriend." She said, trying to feign interest.

"That's so screwed up!" Natatawang sabi nito. "That bastard."

"I know. Pasalamat siya at hindi ko pa siya pinapahunting sa private army ni Kuya Alpha. He'd be found dead in a ditch somewhere kung mangyayari yun." She rolled her eyes in irritation. Bwiset talaga ang isang yun. Saan bang lupalop ng mundo ito nagsuot? Damn him to infinity. "Kasal pa tuloy ako. I was ditched na nga tapos nakatali pa din ako. Lucky me."

"No, you're not. Di legal ang kasal na yun. You didn't marry Adrian. You married Andrew so in truth and in fact, no legitimate wedding happened. I'll call up some people to get your marriage certificate out of the registry para we can keep it on the down low at wala na makaalam. Pigilan na natin from being registered completely." Humigop ito ng kape bago natawa, she's calm and collected again. "But why did you give Andrew a you know? You like him?"

Kinuwento talaga niya lahat sa pinsan niya. She's that open with everything anyway. What's there to hide eh ginawa naman niya talaga.

"Ha! No, I was just teasing him. You should have seen his face. It was epic, para siyang nababaliw sa sarap. That innocent man is just too..." she thought of some words to describe Andrew's demeanor pero wala siyang naisip. "Hmm. Di ko alam, basta nakakatawa talaga."

"But you did say na bumilis ang tibok ng puso noong balutan ka niya ng tuwalya. You like him?" Louisa was eyeing her. Ang babaw naman ata kung nagustuhan na niya ito dahil lang dun.

As if, possible ba naman yun? She was just not used to that kind of treatment na medyo kinilig siya kaya ganun. There's nothing special about her heart going crazy for some proper affection. It has been years kaya naman malamang ay nanibago lang siya. Tsaka malay ba niya kung ano ang ulterior motive nito sa kanya. He may actually just be deceiving her more.

"More of fascinated. No guy has ever resisted that, my gosh! Hinain ko na ang sarili ko tapos umayaw lang siya. Wow. Nakakaloka." She explained. Hindi kasi talaga niya maintindihan kung bakit ganoon ang naramadaman niya. "His loss."

"Hindi ka siguro type?" Lou said.

"I am offended! I am Bobbie San Vicente, who wouldn't like me?" Tanong niya dito. She has always been confident in her skin.

"Well, apparently the Dela Merced twins." Hindi man lang nagpigil ang isang to na magsalita.

Sinamaan niya ito ng tingin agad. "Shut up."

"What? Mali ba ako? Hindi naman ah." Uminom na lang uli ito ng kape kaysa pansinin pa siya.

Nasa Baguio siya ngayon, syempre kasama ang asawang hilaw niya na si Andrew. Instead kasi na sa Japan sila nagpunta ay dito na lang. She made up excuses about being too busy to go to Japan. Sinadya niya talaga.

"Nasaan nga pala ang asawa mo?"

"Sabi mo di ko siya asawa." Naguluhan tuloy siya. Ito ang abugado, she would know better. "Louuuuu!"

"I was just kidding. Bakit? Hihiwalayan mo na ba dahil di siya si Adrian?" Tanong nito and honestly ay hindi niya alam kung ano ang isasagot. It will be a big scandal kaya naman ayaw niyang gawin. How much more can she save face?
