Senor Armando's Pov***
My things were ready, but my heart isn't ready to leave the place which my heart belongs too.
Flashbacks**
How come you betrayed me? I'm expecting you to be the most loyal person I could have, if you really love my daughter, you have to think what's best for her. Is it what you're dreaming of?
You were a soldier, anytime we owe our life to our enemies. You'll be back in Spain months from now, how come you'll ever imagine to leave my daughter when the enemies were still living? that was Don Marciano, I was on my realizations knowing that I will put a blame on myself if there's something that would happen to Isabella.
I'm a military, a soldier who ought our life to the people we serve. Isabella deserves a happy life, with someone who can give her everything she deserves, and that is Senor Fedel.
I grabbed my pen before writing a great novel about sadness and goodbye's.. they isn't common for me because I wasn't even tried to write a novel on myself, but because of someone who have been a part of my life since then, I did it.
I had write all the happy memories we had back then.
The simple things we do that make us laugh together, those simple moments just like breaking the branches to catch those little innocent mangoes, when we slept together under the sunset while the wind is blowing on our direction, are the things I won't forget.
Memories that will remain memories.. .
I have put all my time writing the novel since I am not a soldier anymore, I decided to quit my job the first time I realized that my family's life is at stake.
I will be out of the country months from now, not for a training purposes, but an escape, that's the only thing I know will be going- right now and that I have to finished this novel and give it to Binibining Isabella.
If only she knew how much I treasure her, I love her in a way that I want the best for her, and the only person who can give that to her is no other than but Fedel.
I was afraid to admit that it isn't the life I dream and expected to end. The life we dream is to have a complete happy family with my love Isabella. But how come it ended this way?
How come I was afraid to love her, I can't even protect her?
I already have packed all my things, Jeanna was simply whispering me with words that made me believe that fairytales doesn't really exist in real life.
I was asking her to give the novel I made for Isabella because I don't have the courage to do so, I don't know how this life make sense anymore. I lose the woman I love, because I was afraid to love her anymore.
I was stuck between two things,
I might be killed and my family after this? or she might be killed by the terrorist if they know she will be marrying me...
I was stuck between life and death, between love and sacrificed.
I took a heavy step towards the direction which I end up to the river we used to always go, this time I won't going to see those pretty small waves anymore, not even the sunset nor the sunrise.
I have faced the whole life living the decisions I made.
Flashbacks***
Put your life at stake or your family but not my daughter's life.
The leader of the terrorist are planning to haunt you because we have been killed his brother, or should I say..
"You have killed his brother"!..
So? What should you do now?You know what hurts the most there Senor?
"I was the one who ordered to kill them, but because you have take advantage of me then those stupid people believe the power of my lies!".
I had put the blame on you, I let my guards find the leader of the terrorist and had give them the idea that...
"You killed the brother and the child"
Isn't it so exciting?
So before you decide, take things easy for you. Packed your things ready, stay away from my daughter and save your family, that's the only way you can save my daughter too.
That was the last words I heared from him, the last words that my mind never forgets ...
escaping was saving the lives of my loved ones, that's the only right decision I could've made now, without Isabella knowing.. .
The farmers were all hurt, they were victims of the people who has in the position, the terrorist are coming back to find me, and the only thing that I'm afraid now is to let these people be hurt because of their innocence!.. and that was all my fault.. .
I never became a good soldier of the country, I made mistakes that leads to these innocent people a victim, which was Isabella hates then,
I should have listen to my conscience, because I am not his father, and I won't going to be like him, thirsty with power!
"We'll see each other again Senor Armando", he told me that before leaving my place!.. .
-Don Marciano
I was on my way forgetting.. .
everything happened to me, I was with Jeanna on the chariot leaving the place where we had grown up, dream the life we have, and ended like still dreaming, but this time everything was a nightmare. .
My parents were already in Spain, I and Jeanna are here in the Philippines because supposed to be I'll be starting to build my dream family here, but unfortunately those were just another fairytale that has no happy ending, everytime I remember the memories, I feel hurt knowing that I lose everything, most especially the person that made my life everything make sense .
The chariot just stop from moving, I can hear another chariot were blocking on our way. I tried my best to keep the chariot out of their direction, but they have put a gun and shot our chariot, that was the first time I saw Jeanna crying infront of me and with so much fear she was hiding under where she sits covering herself with a black clothing. I told her not to go outside without any words I say.
She was crying right now and that before I go, I had placed my gun on my upper left side and keep directing outside.. .
"What is it for?". I'm leaving the place now.
I saw Senor Fedel's appearance at the back of the chariot with his guards, he took his gun with him while saying .. .
"It's either you choose to stay or leave, it's all gonna be the same pain in the end!" Senor Fedel.
I badly want to see you being hurt infront of my face!!.. Senor Fedel
