She looked into Edward's eyes.
He couldn't look away even if he tried.
He doesn't know why but he feels as if Maymay is seeing right through him.
"The truth is..."
"May, tara na sa loob!" ang yaya ni Juliana sa dalaga.
Napatingin naman si Maymay kay Juls.
"Sige, sunod na po ako!"
Edward breathed a sigh of relief.
He couldn't believe that he almost confessed to Maymay the truth about himself.
"Ah, sige Dodong! Mauna na ako sayo! Tinatawag na ako ni Mam Mary Dale."
Tumayo na si Maymay para sumunod kanila Juliana at Marco.
"Okay ka lang ba dyan Dodong?" si Marco.
"Ah opo Sir Marco! Ayos lang ako dito!"
Pumasok na ulit sa loob ng mansyon ang tatlo habang naiwan si Edward.
Hindi pa rin makapaniwala si Edward sa sarili niya.
"What the hell is wrong with you Edward? You almost spilled your guts to her!" ang pagalit nito sa sarili.
Hindi sya makapaniwala na dahil lang sa titig ni Maymay sa kanya ay muntik na niyang aminin ang lahat tungkol sa sarili at magpakilala bilang si Edward.
"What is it with the way she looked at you?"
Habang naglalakad papasok ng mansyon ay inakbayan ni Marco si Maymay at binulungan.
"So, Mary Dale, ano'ng kalokohan ito? What's with the masquerade? Juls told me about it already but I still want to hear it from you! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone even my driver Dodong!" at ngingiti-ngiti pa ito ng nakakaloko.
Pagkarinig ng pangalan ni Dodong....
"Why do I feel like I am not the only one masquerading here?"
