*Allessandro*I thought I lose Alana. No words are able to describe how scared I was after I open all the hidden pages of my life to her. The hours that she was not with me was a torture. It felt like I'm losing my blood every seconds. I'm afraid I failed again but Alana was different to anyone just like my first impression after I glance at her walking on the aisle with a veil covering her face."Ay baklang palaka!" Gulat na gulat si Alana nang pumasok ako ng shower room.She covered herself with her hands."Hindi ka ba marunong kumatok?" Halos sigaw niya.Ngumiti lang ako."I just want to check if you're done," I replied."Hmm... seriously?" Nakataas ang kilay na tanong niya.Humakbang ako palapit sa kaniya.Bakas na ang baby bump niya. Hanggang ngayon nahihiwagaan pa rin ako sa mga nangyayari. I will be a dad soon, it's a bit terrifying and exciting at the same time."What?" Nakatitig siya sa mga mata ko."Am I not allowed to be here?" I teased.She opened the shower and wet hersel

*Alana*Kung kailan naman tila naging maayos 'yong marriage ko saka naman naging biglang tila isang bangungot ang lahat. Pilit kong tinakasan ang bangungot na ito sa loob ng mahabang panahon sa pag-aakalang maiiwasan ko ito habang buhay. Francesco was the monster that was creeping inside of me. He's the one who destroyed my childhood and my whole life. I suffered enough from his grudge. I pay for the sin that I haven't committed. Allessandro spent almost ten years trying to find the culprit in his parents deaths, and I'm here hiding, acting like I didn't know anything. It really kills me every time I see him. I'm stuck; I didn't know what to choose. I may be selfish, but I couldn't risk my life. I knew the whole damn truth, but my mouth was as covered with fear as my soul. I wouldn't die yet; I will be a mom in a few months. I had to be wise even though my conscience had persecuted me a million times. This is my way to live for my child, for Allessandro, and for all the people I love.

*Alana*"I want an ice cream." Lambing ko kay Allessandro."Alana, I'm working." Tugon niya habang nakatuon ang buong atensiyon sa laptop niya."Gusto ko nga ng ice cream." Pangungulit ko.He sighed.He looked at me."You can buy outside or call Mauro." Deritsong sabi niya.Napabuga ako ng hangin. Bakit hindi niya ma-sense 'yong gusto ko? Kahit sobrang nakakabagot dito sa office niya ay sumama ako dahil 'yon 'yong gusto niya. Ang dami ko dapat gagawin sa noodles house peru mas pinili kong samahan siya dito sa opisina niya. "Fine, I will call him." Aniya nang mapansing nakabusangot ako.Tumayo ako saka deri-deritsong lumabas ng silid. Nakakainis siya masyadong insensitive. Bakit kailangan pa niyang iasa sa iba 'yong dapat ay responsibilidad niya?Jusme! Nakakainis."Alana!" Sigaw niya.Hindi ko siya pinansin. Sa halip ay mas binilisan ko pa ang paghakbang ko hanggang sa marating ko ang elevator. Kaagad akong pumasok sa loob saka pinindot ang ground floor. "Ma'am Alana, uuwi na po ba

*Allessandro*"I will give you 10 days, Ricardo. Find out who's trying to destroy me, and if you fail, I'm sorry, but you will die." I whispered."How many times do I have to tell you I'm not involved in any of this sh*t?" He clenched his jaw.I shrugged.I don't care if he's involved or not; I wanted someone to pay for the mess they made in my life."Just do as I say." I ordered."And one more thing, I'm watching you." I warned as I tapped his shoulder."Don't threaten me, Allessandro. I'm not the enemy here." He smirked."I'm not threatening you. I'm just informing you. Don't you dare betray me." I whispered as I stepped away from him.If not because of Alana, he's now resting in his cold coffin. He was lucky that heaven still had mercy on him. I tightened my grip on the steering wheel as I remembered what Alana had confessed to me. Is she really pregnant? Am I going to be a dad?So what will happen to our annulment?The questions in my mind were like sand on the seashore. I badly n

*Alana*"Alam mo sumusobra na talaga 'yang Andrea na yan. Kung makaasta akala mo pag-aari niya si Allessandro." Naiinis kong kuwento."Bakit ba affected ka? Ilang araw na lang ay hindi mo na asawa si Allessandro dapat wala ka ng pakialam sa kanilang dalawa ng Andrea na 'yon." Ani Molly.Tumulis ang nguso ko."Kanino ka ba kampi sa'kin o kay Andrea?" Puna ko.Ngumisi siya saka nag-peace sign.Nakakainit lang talaga ng ulo 'yong ginagawa ni Andrea. Kapag ako napikon ng tuluyan nako!"Siyempre sa'yo. Ang point ko lang naman ay dapat dedma mo na sila." Paglilinaw niya.Biglang dumating si Giorgia. Hindi yata maganda ang timpla ng mood."Alana, can we talk?" Bungad niya.Nakapagtataka ang pagiging pormal niya pati na rin ang tono ng boses niya.Ano kayang problema ni Giorgia at ang aga yata niyang napasugod dito sa noodles house. Hindi niya kasama si Giorge kaya alam kong hindi siya magtatagal.Lumipat kami ng area kung saan malimit lamang ang mga diner."I want a favor from you." Deritson

*Allessandro*I'm just giving Alana her right to be free, but I couldn't help myself when I saw her wearing Federico's shirt. I wanted Alana to live the life she wanted. It's true that love makes human hearts weak; that's what happened to mine. I destroyed my own wall and let myself be vulnerable. I wish I hadn't ruined my barrier, so no one was able to make me feel anything."How was your mission?" Tanong ni Francesco.I shrugged."Great," I replied.Malinis akong magtrabaho kaya walang sabit. I earned a billion dollars for shooting the president of Croatia, and that money belongs to Blue Knuckles. I just followed the order and got paid. I guess this is my specialty in life. I didn't have any conscience left because I threw it all away many years ago. I forgot about it since my parents' assassination. "Great, but look at you. Don't tell me your conscience started to persecute you." He laughed.I chuckled.I tried to lie and act like everything was incredible, but I couldn't convince
