She Falls for Her

Hi! I am Paris. And you're?

This is the day. Walking on the red carpeted aisle, in the end of it was the man I truly adore for years now. On the side were the people whom I loved and supported me through out. Most especially, my mother who was now crying like a baby, cause her only daughter is having her big day, her only daugher will now commit to marriage. When someone entered the scene holding up and stopping my most-awaited event.

"ITIGIL ANG KASAL!"

Napalingon ako sa direksyon kung saan nanggaling ang sigaw. All I saw was a sillouhette of a man, with a voice of woman?

Dahil sa liwanag na nakatakas mula sa nakabukas kong bintana, nagising ako sa mahimbing kong pagtulog o sa panaginip. Oh gosh, I love the things I have dreamed last night except nung may nagpatigil sa kasal ko. Duh, as if mangyayari yun, never will be.

I nuzzled myself to my foamy pillow nang biglang may humila sa paanan ko. I jumped in horror.

"Honey, breakfast is ready, cause we're going out for your gown," as she smiled warmly to me.

Si Mom. Milagro, she wasn't attired as usual for office. She's really making up to me.

By the way, I am Paris Juancho Ruiz. In three months time I will be tying the knot with my super makisig 7-year boyfriend, Nick.

"Mom? You are not going to office?" now I am sitting at the edge of my bed.

"No, sweetheart, sasamahan kita para isukat ang gown mo, syempre, I want my only baby girl to look dashing on her big day. C'mon,"

As a response, I bounce myself in the bed to mom and hugged her.

I just had the best wake up call ever.

Pagkababa ko, I saw my two twin brothers, Josh and James. Nakaupo na sila sa 8-seater dining table namin habang nakapatong dito ang nag-uumpugang pancakes, bacon at hotdog in different plates. Sa tabi ay may orange juice with empty glasses. Binati ako ni, Aling Chita, ang mayordoma sa bahay habang naglapag ng dalawang plato sa mesa.

"Maganda umaga po, Ms. Paris, heto na po at kain na. Kayo din po Madam Amanda,"

Umupo na ako, katabi ko si Kuya Josh, he's 2 years older than I.

"How's my soon-to-be-bride, little sister?" he grin at me.

"Beautiful as ever," I said dryly habang naglalagay ng pancakes at hotdog sa plato ko. Mang-aalaska na naman tong dalawa to, katulad ng lagi nilang ginagawa sa akin.

"Conceited as ever," sagot  naman ni Kuya James, na nasa tapat ko lang.

"Enough, you're in front of the food," saway ni Mom as she joins us.

I rolled my eyes at them. Buti nga sa inyo.

"I cooked these for you, Paris,"

I looked at her in awe.

"Really mom? You did it only for ME?" Inemphasize ko talaga yung salitang ME. And I glare to my big brothers.

"Yeah surely, to the bratt," James comments.

My mom smiled ears to ears.

"Ito namang kambal ko nagseselos," habang binibiro nyang kurutin si James sa pisngi.

"Of course, I cook all of these because of my three babies,"

"Mom, two babies na lang, kasi yung iba dyan, magpapakasal na, at magmomove-out na, talagang nauna pa. Matanda na yan, capable ng gumawa ng baby with his Nick,"

I blushed red. Nakakainis na talaga tong mga kapatid kong shunga.

"Will you stop that?" I snap.
