AMARA
Lalo lamang akong nilalamon ng kaba.
"I am a spy, Nikkolai. Malabong wala kang gawing masama? I am a traitor to the ORION. I have sabotaged many missions and killed some of the agents. Don't tell me-"
He cut me off.
"If I thought of killing you after knowing your identity, I should have done it before but no. I need your help," he said seriously.
Muntik pa akong matawa. Seryoso ba siya? Halos naghihisterya na ang utak ko sa mga sinasabi niya. He needs my help? Kailangan niya ng tulong mula sa isang traydor na espiya?
"Do you even hear yourself? Why would you need help from a fucking son of a bitch traitor?" I mocked.
Kumibot ang dulo ng labi niya. Naibaba niya ang kamay sa kanyang hita at nag-iwas ng tingin.
His brows furrowed like mine.
Why would he ask for my help? I hope he's sane right now. I violated their organization yet here he is, disregarding the possible punishment for a traitor like me.
I am slightly relieved from it. May gumaan ng kakaunti sa dibdib ko nang malamang hindi niya ako pinagtangkaang patayin sa kabila ng mga nalamang bagay tungkol sa akin.
I am grateful enough that I am still alive. But what happens after this?
He deeply sighed and grabbed the folder that I am holding right now. Binuksan niya iyon at may kinuhang ilang pirasong dokumento.
"Let's just put this talk in another way. Kalimutan muna natin ang ORION. I will forget that you're an enemy. I need your help about this arrangement."
He placed the document on the table. Base sa petsa na nakasaad doon, it was dated four years ago. What is this paper? Hindi ko maintindihan.
I looked at him with confusion. Mukhang naintindihan niya ang ekspresyon ko.
"My father left me that papers. I am desperate to find a bride to save my empire and I need your help to fulfill all the conditions in that document," Nikkolai boldly declared.
"Wait... what? Ano naman ang kinalaman ko dito?" litong tanong ko.
I am really confused right now. Kanina lang ay tungkol sa ORION ang usapan namin at sa pagiging espiya ko. Ngayon, tungkol sa pangangailangan niyang makahanap ng bride? Bakit ako napasama dito?
He sighed and stood from the couch. Naglakad siya patungo sa shelves. His back is facing me. Hindi ko mabasa ang emosyon niya ngayong nakatalikod siya sa'kin.
Napatingin ako sa dokumentong nasa harap ko. Iilang page ang nandoon pero ang nangibabaw ay parang sulat kamay na liham. Nilingon ko muna si Nikkolai. Nakatalikod parin siya kaya kinuha ko ang papel na iyon.
It's a letter from a man named Copernic Galanis. Who is this?
"That's the original copy of the last will and testament of my father. Sa susunod na papel ay ang printed copy."
Tiningnan ko nga ang sinasabi niya.
"In few days, I will lose everything that I have right now if I will not get married before the deadline. That's why I thought about this in the past few days that I did not visited you. You perfectly fit on my plans. Besides, I think you owe me your life right now."
Napabaling ako sa kanya dahil sa huli niyang sinabi.
"I hate being indebted to other people, Your Highness. Why don't you just kill me right now?"
