Chapter 34 - Truth

Start from the beginning
                                    


"When did you get here? Bakit biglaan? Anong meron?" excited na tanong ni Dash. "Does Dad know you're here?"


"Uhhh..." David was speechless. He couldn't even move.

What is happening? Why would Tito care if this guy's here?


"This is so f*cking great!!! Out of all the days you could have picked, you really chose a special day huh. So you went back to celebrate with us?"


David seemed to remember me so he looked at me again. Dash followed his gaze and smiled when he saw me.


Lumapit siya at umakbay sa akin. "You finally met my girlfriend."

"G-girlfriend?" gulat na tanong nito.


Dash kissed my cheek while my eyes remained on David. "Kuya, si Iris nga pala, ang babaeng nagpapasaya sa akin ngayon. My life, this is my older brother Damian, the person I look up to the most."


A-ANO? MAGKAPATID SILA?



Damian's POV


How can fate control me, make fun of me, and play with me as if I'm no one but a puppet in it's story?


This is so messed up.

My brother is dating the woman that I've been looking for all these years? You've got to be kidding me.


"So your name's Iris?" tanong ko kay Irene habang pinagmamasdan siyang subuan ni Dashiell ng pagkain. Naiilang niyang kinuha ang kutsara at sumubo bago tumango nang hindi tumitingin sa mga mata ko.


"Akala ko Irene pangalan mo?" I directly asked. Nasamid siya sa kinakain niya kaya naman todo alalay ang kapatid ko sa pagbigay ng tissue at tubig.


Umiwas ako ng tingin at kinalma ang sarili ko. I took a deep breathe and looked at her again.

"Who's Irene?" I demanded.

"That's her older sister," Dash explained. "In fact, she's just your age. Who knows you've seen her at one of our social gatherings."

What he said caught my attention. "What do you mean? Are they Elites?"

"Yup. Alam mo Kuya 'yung Sweets from Leona? Sa family nila 'yon."


Flashbacks entered my mind as I connected the dots.

There isn't any Irene name from the hotel records because there never was an Irene in Paris. She used her sister's name and that's basically the whole reason why I couldn't find her anywhere. Ang Irene na nalaman ng isa sa mga na-hire kong investigator ay ang Ate niya. Ang Irene na nakita ko sa party ni Silva ay ang kapatid niya.

I would have seen her if I knew her real name...


"I'm sorry Dash, masakit ang ulo ko dahil siguro sa byahe. I need to rest." Tumayo agad ako at tumingin uli kay Irene---Iris bago ako naglakad papunta sa garahe ng bahay namin.
