Chapter 31

Georgianna's POV
A delicious breakfast greeted me at the chin. I smiled.
"You really love me hahaha,"
"That's not for you. It's all mine. Make yours," Matt
"Hmpp! I don't want that,"
I get a pandesal with only eden. You guys spit! Wahahaha!
"Your older brother is calling," Matt
I picked up my phone and called Kuya Dave.
"Helloooo !!"
[Where exactly you are Georgy? There's a storm outside and you are nowhere to be found. I thought you slept last night at Cheska's place?]
"To greet me in pure English is bad for me Kuya. I'm fine and I have a friend who can be trusted,"
[And who's that?]
"Secret. Maybe you're still dating hahaha. It's still good,"
Matt stared at me. Hahaha.
[Tss. When are you coming home? Did you still attending school?]
"Of course. When the storm is over,"
[Okay. Take care]
"Always !! Bybye !!"
"Come home tomorrow," Matt
"Why? Don't you want to be with me anymore?" I sucked
"The laswa! Tss. I'm leaving tomorrow and you can't be alone here. Maybe some kind of stupidity will join you and burn down my house tss,"
"Wow ha! Thanks for the concern tss,"
"You just need to go home. Fix your problem. You're not that kid Allison," Matt
"16 is still young dude,"
"You're 20. You're not 16,"
"Nope. I'm still 16," I insisted
"Whatever,"
Someone's POV
Sheena walks over the hallway. But suddenly she stopped when she heard someone.
"I really don't want to come in Matt !!"
"Hurricane Allison is over! And you're not a child to not face your problem!"
"Allison?" Sheena whispered confused
Why this man calling Georgianna, Allison?
"I'm only sixteen !! Please !! I just want to rest !!" Georgianna
"Don't be stubborn. Will you come in or won't you spend the night at home? I mean it Allison,"
"Hmmpppp! Annoying!"
"You're not Allison anymore! You have to think that you can't be childish from now on!"
"Yes! Because I'm not Georgianna,"
Sheena gasped after hearing those words. Shw quietly escaped without them noticing her.
'What did she mean by that?'
'Where's the real Georgianna?'
'She's fake !!'
"Damon need to know this !!" She said determine
She rushed to the man who looked stare bored at her.
"You need to know somethint about Georgianna !!"
"What bullshits you prepare now huh? To ruin my girl friend?" Damon glared at her
"This is not fake !! I heard her !! She's not the Georgianna you know. She's fake Damon! I heard that! From her!" Sheena insisted
Feelings came into Damon. Mixed emotions that he could not explain.
"Stop lying," was his short reply
He stands up and leaves the insane lady in front of him. But Sheena followed him stubbornly.
"I'm not lying !! I heard came out to her own mouth. Some guy called her Allison and she even told herself that she's just sixteen! What does it supposed to mean ??" Sheena
Rage, betrayal, frustration and confusion.
That"s all Damon feels and he doesn"t know who. He knew it. Georgianna had changed. But that doesn't mean it's not her.
But the proof is in front of you!
"No!"
Georgianna keep insisting before that she's not the girl they knew.
"No! She'd just lost her memories!"
She's not the same quiet, sweet and matured Georgianna anymore! She become childish, rebel, competitive and stubborn!
"She'd just grow up!" He keep reasoning
Georgianna hates sea but she likes it now! You know how much she hates it. She almost drown before in the water !!
"People always changed! There's no way she's not her!"
She doesn't say bad words and confront people. Especially her parents.
Damon was not on his own walking. He doesn't know what to think and to feel now.
She doesn't have any guy friend !! And who's this guy named Matt !?
She don't stay overnight in someone's house!
She doesn't wear dress in parties and put lipstick! Because she hates it!
She's not a trouble-maker !!!
She don't runaway !!!!
People that lost memories don't stole someone's identity.
But the new Georgianna does!
"I needed to know the truth!" He whispered
He take his phone and dialed someone.
[Hello Mr. Travis?]
"I want to know who is Allison. Associated with a guy named Matthew Alcantara. Right now,"

Georgianna's POV
I was bored leaving my last class. I haven't seen Damon all day. I feel something is wrong.
"Missing someone?" Cheska smiled
"Nah !! It's better he's not here. I don't want to ruin my day!"
But it's so broken !!
"You're just jealous,"
"Who wouldn't be jealous if you see your boyfriend with a different personality?"
"But you know Damon. He's not like that. He loves you so much," Cheska
We were both stopped when Damon appeared on the sidelines. Anger is what I expect to feel by the time I see him now but why am I nervous?
Something is really wrong!
"Can we talk?" He asked seriously
"E-err .. I'm going home now. Take care," Cheska
When Cheska left Damon spoke. A name I didn"t expect him to mention.
"Allison ...,"
"A-what?" My eyes widened
Does he already know? How? Who told him? What am I going to do? I need Matt now !!
"Who's Allison? Allison Buenaventura?"
"I-I don't know. Why are you asking me that?"
"You told me before you are Allison. What do you mean by that? You told everyone that you are not Georgianna. Is it true? Tell me!" He asked emphatically
"I-I don't ...,"
"Allison Buenaventura is a sixteen year old girl who died few months ago !! That lived in the same roof with Matthew Alcantara !! You're friend !! Doesn't it make sense? You are not her!"
I knew he was angry. He threw me an envelope. Even if I don"t look I know my information is contained there.
"What's your purpose huh? Tell me !!! You bitch !!"
SLAAPPPPP
We were both surprised when my palm hit his face. My eyes are blurred.
"You !! Who are you to call me a bitch? First of all I said I'm not Georgianna !! Did you listen !!! I have no right to be called by any name !!" I shout
"Where's her? I don't need your explanation! Tell me where she is !!!" Damon
"He's dead! He's been dead for a long time!"
"Who killed her? Did you kill her? Stop lying !!!" Damon
"I'm not lying! The woman you loved was long dead the day I woke up! It's hard to believe but this body was Georgianna's body then! I don't know why I'm here but I only know one Damon! I don't sin I came here! And you have no right to say I killed him and call me by any name! " I shout
"You should have told me !! Even if I didn't believe you! You shouldn't keep acting like she's really and telling me you love me !!!" Damon
"I don't act Damon! All my actions are obviously not what he used to be! And I especially don't act when I say I love you!"
He stopped. He needs to know. Ayoko na. I feel so much guilt.
"Now you know I'm not Georgianna! Stop me. I don't want to be hurt again. I don't want to fall for you forever! Now you know. There's no reason to hide who I really am from you. And even if I reverse the situation world. I'm Georgianna what you don't want and what you want! You're free to leave Damon! It doesn't make sense for you to stay with me. I'm not the woman you love. Don't worry. It will also reach my family, "
***
Wet from the rain. I knocked on Matt's door. It opened immediately and his manly eyes met me.
I look like a beggar who has been raped, I know. But what do I do? I don't want to go back to that house. I am not their brother. Any time now they will know.
"What happened to you?" Matt
He let me in and wrapped me in a towel. I couldn"t help myself and cried.
"Shhh it's okay ...,"
"A-he already knows M-Matt !! Damon already knows I'm not G-Georgianna !!"
"H-how?" He asked
"I don't know. He talked to me before. It's so sick. It's not my fault to be in this body. It's not my fault. I'm not a bad person Matt !! It's not my fault,"
"Shhh. I know Allison. I know. I know you and have known you for a long time. Don't understand them. The important thing. They already know you're not the woman they knew before. Maybe it's time for us to fix this. Don't worry Allison "I won't leave you. Just remember I'm here. I will never leave you,"
"S-thank you Matt! Thank you!"
"You should change first. You might get sick. I'll just prepare the food,"
"O-okay,"
I went upstairs to take a shower and get dressed. I was combing my hair when I heard Matt's voice. I immediately went downstairs and saw him holding my phone.
"M-matt?"
"Your brother," he replied firmly
I reached for the phone and waited for his words.
[Little sister?]
"K-brother Dave?" I whispered
[Damon told me .....]
"G-are you mad at me?"
[No Georgy .. You're still my sister after all]
"I'm not Dave! I'm not your brother!" I said tearfully
[We need to talk this out. Come home tomorrow]
Now I could feel the cold in his voice as if I were someone else.
"I will not run away. I will deal with you,"

Georgianna's POV
Matt smiled at me. Uli. I cried. I feel. The same as me. It should be just the beginning. I argued that I was with them that I was not Georgianna.
I felt Matt hug me tightly.
"It's not your fault Allison. Don't blame yourself. It's not you okay? Remember I'm here. If they want you to come home, I'll come. I won't leave you," Matt
"W-what are they going to do to me now?"
"They can't hurt you. They remember Georgianna's body is still your thing and you're still their child. In blood and flesh," Matt
I nodded, "Don't leave me,"
Because the person I loved has left me.
"No. Never Allison,"
***
I walked inside the Mansion. Matt was just behind me ready to support me.
People sat up and looked at me. I look at them blankly.
"How dare you !?"
Slaappppp
I was grabbed by my cheek. A loud slap was given to me by what I once considered my mother. Matt immediately came to my aid.
"Celeste! You're exaggerating!" Dad
"Where's my daughter? Where's her ?! Tell me! You bi--,"
Before he had even finished what he was going to say. I gave him a sharp look.
"Don't you dare ever call me that! I'm not your mother to call you by that name. Your son has been dead for a long time and it's not my fault! I'm not to blame for what's happening now! Wasn't it just then? I said I'm not your son !! I'm not at fault! Why can't you understand? " I shout
"Mom! Please calm down!" Dave
"How can I calm down? She'd just stole my daughter's identity!" Mom
"She didn't Mom. Doesnt it make sense? We're also at fault here. We know there's something wrong but we choose to ignore it. Mom. That was still Georgianna's body," Dave
"Nonsense! Why don't we just call some expert to fix this? I don't want to be with someone who is not our family member," Jaden said violently.
I feel heavy. Is that it? After I make their family happy and together? Will they forget all that?
"We already did that. But we came out with nothing. We don't know what to do to get your son back because if there is. We've only done that before. Allison has nothing to do with this! She hasn't done anything bad to you for you. Talk to her like that. None of us want this to happen. Now if you have nothing else to do but blame Allison. I can't help but take her. Since, she's not your child, is she? " Matt
I was just quiet behind him. I can't think of a word. I wanted to defend myself but I came out nothing to say.
"No. You won't take her away. She's still our family even inside she's not. You're going to stay here for good," Dave
"M-matt?" I whispered softly
"Listen to me Allison. You need to follow. Because you already have her body. We can't do nothing but for you to stay here. Don't worry. You can still go home. Think as if nothing happens. Okay? " Matt
I just nodded. I am disgusted with myself. Where is my fighting spirit? My talkativeness? Why at times when I have to speak then I lose what to say?
He hugged me tightly. I want to go home. I want to rest but I can't. Not allowed. Because I'm sure. When Matt left beside me. I will receive a variety of judgments.
That I had to face it alone without Matt supporting me.
"I need to leave. Call me if something happens okay?" Matt
He smiled at me as if telling me "everything is fine" somehow I was relieved.
"O-okay,"
I was confronted with people I considered family, I made happy and trusted, who now by simply exchanging my body for their child they blame and judge me.
People always remember the bad than the good things you did.
They gradually disappeared from my sight until only Kuya Dave was left. He came over to me and hugged me.
"It's not your fault Geor-- Allison. I understand. I'm going to talk this out on them. Don't worry," Kuya Dave
"T-thank you. Brother,"
Georgianna's POV
1 month ...
A month since they found out the truth. They are not like before. I don't even see them often anymore. Mom, she doesn't pay attention to me anymore. Dad, I know he just doesn't want to be mean to me, he just smiles hard. Jaden, the worst of them, he always called me and ignored me at school. I don"t know what I did to him. Why is he so angry? Only Kuya Dave can talk to me politely, who doesn't judge me.
I got out of the car and went inside the Campus. Thanks for the paperworks. He diverts the sadness I feel. Now I just wanted to be busy at school. I entered my first class even earlier.
Damon. He no longer pays attention to me. He let Sheena flirt with him. With him I am very hurt. I know it will come to this but I don't think he will use others to forget and hurt me.
But despite everything I experience. I thanked Matt for not living my side. My best friend/crush never leaved me. As they did.
When I said let him have me. He did not leave.
He did not leave me ....
At times I am crying, giving up, and weak. He was the only person there to lift me. Only him...
The door opened and one eye peeked out. She awkwardly smile when she met my eyes.
"Ahmm .. G-georgianna?"
He entered and closed the door. He sat across from me.
"Why?" I will ask
"I-I know I became rude by ignoring you. And I'm sorry for that. I just don't want Zeus and me to fight," Cheska
"What do you mean?" I will ask
"P-Damon forbade us to see you. K-we know him. I don't want that because of me to have a rift in being friends and cousins. I'm sorry," Cheska cried
"A-what? Is he so mad at me? What did I do that made him so mad? Was it because someone else lived in this body? That it wasn't Georgianna and me? How many times can I say that it's not my fault !! " I even cried with resentment
"I-I don't know. I'm sorry Georgy," Cheska
"Don't call me by that name! Please! Just leave. Go away," I commanded.
"G--,"
"ALIS!"
She left the classroom crying. I immediately locked the door so that no one else could enter.
"Is this what you want to happen? Ha !!" I shout
I close my eyes and bear the tightness of my chest. Do I deserve it?
'Allison ....'
I was shocked to hear a woman's voice. I stood up and searched for the voice.
'Allison ....'
"Where are you!?"
"I'm here Allison,"
I looked to the other side of the classroom. There was Georgy standing and smiling at me. My head heats up.
"Can you still smile at my situation? Can't you see what they're doing to me?" I asked angrily
"They won't understand if you don't understand Allison first," she said softly
"What do I not understand?" I'm confused question
"Come with me,"
I grabbed my bag and hurriedly followed him. We stopped in a room that was no longer very used. Full of books and files here.
"What do I not understand?" I will ask
"We didn't change when I die Allison,"
"What? Are you kidding me?"
"Because we changed when we were still alive!"
My eyes widened and receded. His face is not what I see if it wasn't my face when I was alive.
"Don't you understand? We changed when we were born. Let's just go back to the way I was when I died. When we were in different bodies, admit that you can't hold the book that everyone can hold,"
It was like a nightmare all I remember what happened to me when I was a child. A book I dislike most of all.
"H-I don't know what you're saying!"
"Liar !!" Suddenly his eyes glazed over
I backed away when he ran at me. He disappeared when my body hit him. Napapikit ako.
"Go back to the times you were scared! When you were still in the body!"
Napadilat ako. My eyes widened when I saw the body I was holding he was holding. B-I'm back in my body !!
"When you thought I was you! When you were afraid of this book!"
My eyes widened as a book appeared in front of me.
Bible ...
I cried out as he took my hand and glued it to the page of the book. A severe internal pain.
"You're hurt because you're not the owner of that body !! I'm dead Allison !!!"
He let me go. I looked at my slightly burned hand.
"T-tell me ...," I whispered
"You're the real Georgianna and I'm not. That's why I'm gone."
***
Everyone rushed to the locked room when someone keep screaming in there.
"A-what's going on there?" Asks Czech
Damon was just watching people panicking outside the room. Teachers rush in holding the keys but still the door is closed.
"Who's inside the room?" Asks Zeus to the panicked student
"I-I saw Francheska's friend come in. The one who's been gone for a long time,"
Wide eyes. The three rushed to the room and banged the door but it didn't open. One scream and everyone fell into deep creepy silence.
The door clicked telling that the lock was removed. They step backwards. Unsure what to do next.
"A-Allison?"
Georgianna's POV
Napadilat ako. I slowly got up. Everything is messy in the room. Books and papers were scattered. But one book remained neatly on the floor.
I picked it up slowly. It is true. I'm Georgianna. I'm not Allison. I'm not in pain anymore. I have my right.
I felt contentment. Fulfilled. I grabbed my bag and opened the door. Their frightened faces flashed at me.
"A-Allison?"
I smiled a little, "I prefer Georgianna than that,"
