My Husband's Hot Brother

Chapter 5:

Charlotte's POV:

"So, what you're trying to say is that kakambal mo ang lalaking 'yon?", lutang na lutang na tanong ko kay Zach habang magkaharap kaming nag-uusap ngayon sa loob ng aking dressing room.

"Hon... ", napakamot sa batok niyang reaksyon ni Zach. Kasi naman paulit-ulit niya ng sinasabi sa akin na kakambal niya nga 'yong ninakawan ko ng halik kanina ngunit ayaw pa rin maproseso ng utak ko.

Like how can I accept that? I kissed that guy and even told him some mortifying things, kasi akala ko siya si Zach. That was so embarrassing. How would I even know if that was Zach or not when he exactly looks like my husband? Kung alam ko lang na may kakambal asawa ko, I would've known pero 'yon nga! Hindi ko alam na may kakambal siya. Kaya aakalain ko talaga agad na he was Zach!

Napatampal ako sa aking noo.

"You okay? Ano bang nangyari?", nagtataka niyang tanong. Napaangat ako ng tingin sa mukha niya. No, walang nangyari. Let's erase that memory!

"W-wala, I just can't believe it.", rason ko.

"I know. I felt the same when he reached out to me. Apparently, my brother knows about him but didn't tell me and you, because he was waiting for my memories to come back. He told me that I've met him before, kaya my brother advised that I act like the accident never happened and that I can remember my twin brother, that I didn't lost my memories.", pagbibigay niyang linaw sa akin.

"Bakit?", kunot noo kong tanong. Why would we hide his condition sa kapatid niya?

"Zane told me that I was supposed to fly in the US with my twin brother, when I suddenly changed my mind and then the accident happened on my way back.", dagdag niyang eksplenasyon.

Fly with his twin brother papuntang US? Something suddenly struck me. Zach once left, he flew to Washington kasama si Zane. Sinundo pa nga namin ni Bleu sa airport at that time. He told me something weird that day... Na he's leaving again the day after and papuntang US naman, he said it's something important. At that time, he wanted me to come with him in the US at may sasabihin din daw siya sa akin. He knew na bothered ako by something sa mga panahong 'yon ngunit hindi ko masabi sa kanya because of Stephen. He told me if handa ko ng sabihin ay sumama ako sa kanya sa US, ngunit nahuli ako ni Stephen no'n. 

His twin brother... tungkol ba sa kanya ang dapat na sasabihin niya sa akin noon?

Naibalik kay Zach ang atensyon ko nang maramdaman ko ang paghawak niya sa aking kanang kamay.

"So, for now, let's be careful. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang kailangan niya sa akin, kaya if ever there will be another time na you'll meet him just like today, just don't get close or get familiar with him. Avoid him as much as possible, okay?", hawak-hawak ang kanang kamay kong tugon ni Zach. Wala akong ibang masabi kundi tumango.

Gulat pa rin ako dahil sa nangyari at sa nalaman ko. At kahit naman hindi niya ako paalalahanan na layuan ang lalaking 'yon ay kusang lalayo talaga ako! Pagkatapos ba naman ng kahihiyang ginawa ko?

Binitawan ni Zach ang kamay ko at napaupo ng maayos. 

"I wasn't expecting to meet him today, hindi ko alam kung anong ginagawa niya dito pero since andito na rin naman siya, I'll face him.", tingin sa malayo na sabi ni Zach na tila ba ay ang lalim ng kanyang iniisip.

What? What does that even mean? Hindi niya alam kung anong ginagawa ng kakambal niya sa workplace ko? I thought na kaya andito dahil sa kanya? Kung hindi... Why is he here? He even watched me shoot earlier!

"Let's go home and eat dinner next time. I need to talk to him.", balik tingin sa akin ni Zach na sabi.

"Alright.", mabilis kong sagot. Ni hindi ko magawang masaktan kasi hindi na naman matutuloy plano namin, kasi 'yong utak ko ang daming tanong, isama mo pa kahihiyan ko.
