LOGINALLYS POVI gave them all a sweet smile and then nodded to Nanay Tessy who was just standing by my side."Ahh ehh that's enough, and sit down now. Mariel has been hungry waiting for you," said Nanay Tessy and sat down next to me.Lita excitedly approached the other side of me and sat down as well."What are you waiting for? Let's eat," she said to the workers who were still standing and surprise was evident on their faces."Is it really okay for us to eat here, Miss Mariel? With you? Because it's embarrassing. This is your family's table while we are just servants. It's okay with us if we just eat in the dirty kitchen."The gardener said at length. I knew he was a gardener because of what he was wearing."What are you doing, Carding! Miss Mariel worked hard for this. She herself cooked and prepared these foods," Nanay Tessy reprimanded him.Their eyes widened except for Lita."Oh! I'm sorry for my audacity, Señorita." He said with his head bowed, and I noticed his violent swallowing.
ALLYS POV"You can join me for a meal, Lita.""Po? Oh no! Don't worry, Miss. I already finished earlier.""If so, just tell me things about me, Lita. Tell me, did I hurt you before? You know, there are things I can't remember, and I would like to know what kind of person I was before," I said while looking at her.It took a long time before she spoke."Ahh, because Miss, you were very sarcastic before, and if someone made a mistake, you would immediately fire them from work," she said softly while looking at me."That's how I was before," I said unconsciously."I'm sorry, Miss, I didn't mean to say that to you. I hope you don't fire me. I have siblings who I'm sending to school. My family is relying on me. My father is sick now, and my mother is only a laundrywoman. I hope you don't fire me from my job. Sorry for my audacity to say those things. Sorry po." She said to me crying while bowing her head.I couldn't speak immediately.Is that really Mariel's attitude? If you think about it
ALLYS POVI was surprised when the old woman hugged me, and she was still sobbing while doing so. I looked around. All the maids were watching me. Maybe they were waiting for whatever my reaction would be."Welcome back, Miss Mariel," they all said at the same time, and then they all bowed at the same time."God! Mariel, you child! We are happy that you are well now." The old woman cried and then looked at me from head to toe."Are you okay? Does anything still hurt?" she asked while inspecting my whole body.I didn't know what I should do. Trembling, I held her two hands and then gave her a sweet smile."Please stop crying. I'm feeling well, so please don't worry," I said in a soft voice while smiling at her.I heard most of the maids here gasp. And I also saw mommy smiling at me, as did daddy."Mariel hija, I'm sorry, I'm just really happy now that you're okay," she said, and she was a little embarrassed now because of what she did."That's enough, Tessy, and she still needs to rest
ALLYS POVI burst into sobs, I wanted to protest. I wanted to shout that this is not me. I wanted to complain, but I knew it wouldn't do any good.I knew that the Cuevas couple would be angry if I told them the truth now. And there is even a possibility that they will have me imprisoned for being an imposter.I sobbed at what I was thinking now. That's right! I'm an imposter to them. I'm so bad!I looked at my face in the mirror again.My face was well-formed. My eyebrows were well-shaped, and my small nose was very pointed. Red lips that were almost perfect. I also noticed that my hair was a bit curly, brown in color, and reached my waist. I stared at my eyes.Only my eyes remained normal. Only my eyes remained a trace that I was really Allys and not their daughter Mariel."We can go back to the Philippines, Mariel," said the woman as she gently stroked my hair.I stared at her smiling face. She and her daughter look very much alike. I couldn't help but feel nervous again.Am I ready
ALLYS POV"You hear that, Mariel? It won't be long before you go back to normal, daughter. Once you fully heal all of your wounds, I will immediately have you undergo plastic surgery. To bring your beautiful face back. I know you want that, my dear. Please fight this one. I know you can do it. You are not my daughter for nothing."I suddenly felt nervous at what she said. My mind was almost restless. I wanted to be happy because finally my condition would be okay, but fear still prevailed in me. Fear that they would know the truth that I am not their daughter.Even though I couldn't talk to them, I felt comfortable with them. But I'm not their daughter. What will they do when they find out that I'm not Mariel?I want to admit the truth to her. I want to say that I'm not Mariel. That I am not their daughter, and I don't know her daughter either.But not a single word comes out of my mouth. I tried to open my eyes, and for the first time, I did!Even with only a small opening in my eyes
ALLYS POV(Still a continuation of her flashbacks)I was still staring at the expensive bracelet I was holding now. Why is it so easy for the rich to throw money away?My head was aching from everything that had happened. I hadn't even forgotten what Tatay Arsing did to me, and this woman added to it.Maybe it's okay, and I can sell it when I get to San Vicente. Because I don't have any money. I'll pawn it in the next town for a large amount. I need to be practical now, especially since I won't have anything to buy food with later.I glanced at that affected woman who was rolling her eyes at me.I blinked involuntarily. As beautiful as she looked, her attitude was just as ugly.I don't know why she's doing this, but I'm not in a position to complain because what she gave me is a big help to me.I just stared at the beautiful bracelet in my hands. It was full of shiny stones inside, and I could hardly see a single scratch on it.I immediately tried to put it on, and I was amazed and ga
