Chats For My Writer: An Epistolary

Act 1: Epilogue

Her Point of View

I guess we really do something stupid sometimes.

I held out a deep sigh as I looked at my features in front of the mirror. Hindi ko alam pero pinagsisisihan ko na ang mga sinabi ko na makikipagkita ako sa kanya. That was too stupid of me to say those things. Hindi ko man lang naisip na baka hindi maganda ang maging reaksyon niya.

Hindi ko mapigilang pagmasdan ang sarili ko sa harap ng salamin. The red summer dress really hugged my curves. My wavy long hair was curled perfectly to match my dress. I think it's already perfect. Siguro naman ay magugustuhan na niya ang hitsura ko. I want to look presentable in front him. First impression lasts after all.

"May lakad ka 'yata? Ngayon lang kita nakitang nag-ayos 'ah," my brother welcomed me with his remarks as I entered our living room. I was not his fault to look surprised. Ngayon lang rin naman kasi talaga ako nag-ayos nang sobra. Only for him.

"May pupuntahan lang," I said. Good thing he stopped asking. Mahirap na baka malaman pa niya kung sino ang kikitain ko. I don't want to spoil things after all.

While walking towards the church, I couldn't help but to feel nervous. It's my first time meeting him as me. Hindi ko mapigilang mag-overthink. What if he was expecting someone but, not me?

I shrugged those those away. Thinking about those things might attract negative things. Mahirap na at baka hindi maging maganda ang kalabasan ng una naming pagkikita.

Nervousness enveloped my whole body as I stepped inside the church's compound. Bigla na lang bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko dahil sa kaba. It is now or never.

At that moment, I thought heaven suddenly dropped a massive bomb. I finally saw him.

I saw him talking with another girl in a red dress.
