THE MAN IN GREEN UNIFORM (Montenegro Series #3)

Chapter 17

Celestine's POV.

A knocked woke me up that morning, just two knocks ay pumasok na ang kapatid ko.

"Nasa baba si Nicholas," Storm said, he is holding a piece of bread.

"Get out."

"If only I don't know you as someone who plays with men, iisipin ko talaga seryoso ka roon sa sundalong dinate mo sa Cuba, kaya ka ganyan."

"Go away Dalfon Storm, I'll definitely get back to you once Dakota is back."

"Yeah, whatever, bumaba ka na roon, hinihintay ka ng mapapangasawa mo, nagdala siya ng breakfast."

He left me bago ko pa maibato sa kanya yung unan.

I immediately prepared myself, mabilis akong naligo, hindi ko na nagawang mag blower ng buhok dahil ayokong paghintayin si Nicholas.

I need to talk to him.

Mahigit isang buwan na rin nung huli kaming magkita ni Stephen, iniiwasan ko talagang puntahan din si Nicholas dahil malaki ang tyansang nandoon din sya.

I am slowly recovering, I am not totally fine yet but my life is going on.

I am getting married in a few weeks. I am not using Nicholas, maybe I do pero hindi sa paraang naiisip n'yo. I think it's time for me to settle down, he is a nice guy and he loves me. My dad adores him, my mom thinks we are a perfect match.

Minamadali na rin ng magulang ni Nicholas ang kasal namin, hindi siya hinayag in public dahil gusto ko ng payapa at tahimik na kasal, sawang sawa na ko sa media.

"Good morning, love." Nicholas called me, as soon as he saw me enter the rining area. Inaasikaso nito si Elle.

He is pouring cereal for her.

I came closer and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Good morning." I greeted him back, he smiled and kissed the top of my head. "Good morning baby." Bati ko kay Elle.

"Good morning mamita."

She's so cute! If siguro nabuhay yung anak ni Dakota at Storm, siguro sobrang ganda or gwapo nun, he or she will be the same age as Elle.

I really wish Dakota is here.

I sat down there for breakfast, Nicholas prepared everything for me. He memorized everything that I like, kung saan ako allergic at kung anong ayaw ko.

Nicholas Collin, is our generations's epitome of perfect man. He is caring and matured. Idagdag mo pang gwapo at gentleman sya, what else can I ask for?

"What do you want to talk about?" he asked. "Don't tell me, ayaw mo ng magpakasal?"

Nakaupo kami sa garden area ng mansion namin.

I chuckled, his eyebrows furrowed a bit.

"Hindi, hindi 'yon ang sasabihin ko."

"Whoo, akala ko naman kung ano, anyway before you tell me that, the house na lilipatan natin after we get married is tapos ng i-renovate. I asked the interior to make sure na sundin yung gusto mong color."

I held his hand. He held mine too.

"Thank you," I sincerely told him.

"I might not know what's on your head but know that I genuinely love you. I will do everything for you, not to prove my love to you, but because you deserve it."

"Thank you love."

"I love you." He kissed my hand. Natigilan ako. "I can wait, hihintayin ko hanggang kaya mo ng sabihin sa 'kin yan."
