Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Double Identity Husband: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

SIMULAIZARIA'S POVOne thing that I always notice is that everything is represented by different colors. Red for blood or revenge, black for sorrow or emptiness, green for sickly-looking or pale, and white for purity and peace. Whereas pink for weak yet stunning color that will steal your attention. Just like those beautiful cherry blossom. Maybe they named me Izaria Mauve because I always look weak compared to others. My second name Mauve simply means pink or pale purple. And I always thought it is too girly. But the true meaning behind this color may shock everyone. The hard blows of the wind sent shivers down my spine and my lips were trembling. For almost four hours, I was told by my grandfather to stand straight here in the middle of our training area adjacent to the temple. Hindi ko siya kayang suwayin dahil kasama na ito sa sinasabi niyang training ko. Wearing a black kimono and my hair in a tight bun, I let myself endure the pain and breathed deeply. Yumuko ako dahil sumasak

KABANATA 2IZARIA’S POVPinagpuyatan ko talaga ang paghahanap ng iba pang impormasyon tungkol sa mga Bernaville. Pero bukod sa isa sila sa mga natatanging pamilya at makapangyarihan ang buong angkan nila ay wala ng iba. Ni hindi ko alam kung mahahanapan ba namin sila ng kahinaan. Nakakatakot ang chairman nila kahit na hindi naman siya matanda at mukhang wala pang asawa. Natatakot tuloy ako na patuluyin at suportahan si lolo sa kanyang binabalak na pakikipag-ugnayan sa kanila. But I won’t question anything as of now. Our company is worth fighting for.“Zari, would you like to come tonight? Dadalo kami sa party ng mga Bernaville tulad ng napagplanuhan,” sambit ni mommy.Nasa hapag kaming lahat para kumain ng almusal. Halata ang pagpupuyat ko dahil kanina pa ako tinititigan sa mga mata ni lolo. He is giving me that warning look. Alam ko na agad na nagagalit siya ngayon. Bawal kasi sa akin ang pagpupuyat dahil ipinagbawal sa akin ng doctor ko. Iniiwas ko na lamang ang tingin ko sa kanya.

KABANATA 4IZARIA'S POVNanatili akong nakapikit kahit na naramdaman ko ang pagbuhat sa akin ng kung sino. Nalaman kong si daddy iyon nang marinig ang natatarantang boses ni mommy na sinasabihan itong dalhin ako agad sa kotse para madala sa hospital. Pero narinig ko ang kalmadong boses ni lolo na sinasabing sa kwarto na ako ituloy. Kung tutuusin siya pa ang unang magsasabi talaga na malayo iyon sa bituka para sa akin. Pero ineexpect ko pa naman siyang sasang-ayon siya kay mommy dahil itinatago niya naman sa kanila na tinuruan niya ako ng martial arts at na malakas naman talaga ang katawan ko. "Sa loob mo na siya dalhin, Erwin. May mga bisita pa tayo," sambit ni lolo kay daddy.I tried to peek at them. At nakita ko ang nakataas-kilay na si lolo habang mariing nakatitig sa akin. Mukhang binabantayan ako nang maigi. Mukhang alam na niya na nagpapanggap lamang ako. Agad kong naipikit ang aking mga mata. Oh my god! He'd always use that expression whenever he is disappointed or in a foul m

KABANATA 6IZARIA’S POVSurely time flies so fast. Hindi ko na namalayan ang matuling paglipas ng panahon. Kinaya kong manatili sa Pilipinas ng isa at kalahating buwan. Although, I had a rough time adjusting to the weather, to the new environment, and the majority is how I need to intermingle with other people. Most of the time I am inside our mansion. The housemaids would always try their best to communicate with me, but I would always turn my back on them and isolate myself on my room because I have no courage to socialize with them.Lolo took me to different places in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, for me to easily adjust and familiarize places. Nag-enjoy naman ako kahit na medyo nagka culture shock ako nang ma-expose sa iba’t ibang tao dito sa Pilipinas. Mommy and daddy always throw parties in our mansion so that everyone will know of my existence. Our relatives were always present and most of their business partners were also there. But I always wondered how people maintain social

KABANATA 8IZARIA’S POV“W-What?!” gulat si mommy pagkatapos kong sabihing pumapayag ako sa kasal. “Kakasabi ko lang na may ibang motibo ang mga Bernaville! Bakit ka papayag sa kasal?”“It’s the only way to take back the company, right? Ayaw kong tumunganga lang kung alam kong may paraan naman para mabawi iyon. It doesn’t matter if they have hidden motives. There’s only one way to know the truth. Let’s keep in mind that Asunscion Company is the pride of our clan.”Even though I hate being exposed to the business world, I’ll risk everything just so I can’t disappoint myself, lolo, and my parents. I can find ways to get away from Grand after I take back the company. “Are you saying that you’ll let yourself dance in the palms of the Bernavilles?” mommy said almost hysterically.“Not totally. I can always find my way out.”Umiling-iling si mommy para ipakitang hindi siya pabor sa kagustuhan ko. Pero determinado na ako ngayon. Buo na ang plano sa aking isipan. “Your daddy will not agre
