Lock-On Thee (Artista Series #2)

Prologue

Prologue

The tail of white gown started to spread in the whole floor of church. People are smiling but I saw his mad face as if he's not happy just like how I am facing them right now.

The veil infront covers my whole face, including my emotion.

Tama ba ang desisyon na magpakasal ako sa taong hindi naman sasaya sa 'kin?

Tama bang mapunta sa isang taong alam mong walang kasiguraduhan?

Tama bang umibig sa kaniya kahit 'di ka niya mahal?

My tears suddenly flows. My papa pat me on my shoulder as if he's comforting me while guiding me at altar.

Few relatives, few friends. A marriage kung saan kaunti lang ang nakakaalam, this will remain as our secret.

A marriage you're hoping but shouldn't be accepted.

Tumigil kami sa harap niya. Wala akong nakikitang ibang emosyon. Bukod tanging ang galit lang sa mukha nito ang nakikita ko.

Gradually, my papa remove my arms on him and give my hand to him. Napalunok ako.

He accepted it. Ramdam ko ang panginginig ng kamay ko habang nakakapit sa kaniya.

This is a mess, but one thing for sure. I want this marriage, I'll do anything to keep this marriage and not to break it.

"Marcus, are we good?" Saad ko

"No" bukod tanging saad niya sa akin bago tuluyang humarap sa pari.

-
'Life shouldn't be equal yet have to be fair. There goes to love, love him as much as you do but love yourself as much as you can.

Knowledge is just a part of lesson but experience gives you a lesson'

"Nice saying" Direk Paul said "Let's wrap up this Zia, it's already far from good. I think we can proceed on picking the characters, what do you think?" He added.

"I have an actor in my mind"

"Who?" He curiously said.

"Marcus Gueverra" tumaas ang kilay nito.

"He's a rising actor but he's popularity only came from his look. I don't really like that, I want a talent Zia" ngumisi ako sa kaniya pagkatapos ay umiling.

He's throwing a shade to my fiancé.

"As per our contract, I can pick an actor who I wanted to work with. If you'll be against on that then our contract will be legally void"

"Zia!" Sigaw niya, umiling ako dito at marahang ibinaba ang aking sumbrero.

"Take him or leave it" I said before standing up and leave in that place.

Agad kong binuksan ang aking laptop at agad na nagupdate sa aking website.

Movie 'Lies cannot be' is under discussion. Pursuing Marcus Gueverra as my leading man...

Pagkatapos ipost ay marami na agad ang nagpahayag ng kanilang opinyon. Mula sa live story ng isang book hanggang sa natitipuang actor.

'Adriel is much better for this role but a new face-actor this time may give a different color in story. So If this is not Adriel then I go for Marcus' basa ko sa isang komento

'Writer Zia knows what is the best for her story. If she wants Marcus to act in her movie then Marcus already meets the qualifications of Zia'

'Lets's stop fantasizing Adriel as Lucas. He's been portraying a lot of characters created by Zia'

'Not related, but when will you introduce yourself to us Zia'

Napaubo ako sa huling komento na aking nabasa. It urges me to reply.

'Not now and not the soonest' I replied.

Sunod kong binisita ang account ni Marcus. He's active on Instagram, I want to chat him pero mabuti na ang nagiingat.

Imbes na ichat ay tiningnan ko nalang ang mga pictures niya. Its always b/w, even the foods is full of black and white but still it's organised.

My notification popped up saying Marcus have posted a new photo.

Mabilis ko itong pinindot para makita. This time it is not a black and white photo but a normal one, a photo without any filter.

He's wearing a gray tuxedo. He brushes his hair up, at ang mga mata tila'y nakatingin sa akin.

Huli ko nang binasa ang caption nito saying

'Not free and I don't like it'
