The wedding preparations were finished faster than we expected. Tumagal lang ng isa at kalahating buwan ang pagpplano nila na dapat ay dalawang buwan.
For the past month and week I never saw Gian dahil hindi naman ako lumalabas sa bahay at kung may ipapasuyo si Ate Kass ay hindi rin nagkukrus ang landas namin. It's better this way at buti nalang ay hindi niya alam na nandito ako kina Kuya.
We celebrated the holidays too as a family in our rest house sa tabi ng beach and it was the best celebration of mine after years of celebrating it in my work. Siguro kapag holidays ay magfifile ako ng leave para umuwi dahil talagang iba padin kapag pamilya ang kasama kaysa sa trabaho.
"Pikit ka, Miss..." The make up artist told me. Inaayusan na kami ngayon dahil araw na ng kasal.
"There..." She said when she finished on spraying something on my face.
I opened my eyes at halos mabuwal ako sa upuan nang makita ang itsura ko. Nagmukha akong tao sa low braided buns na may ilang hibla pa ng kulot na buhok ang nasa mukha ko. Light lang ang make up na nilagay sa akin at hinighlight lang ang ilang parte ng mukha ko.
Ang huling paayos ko ay two years ago nang tumanggap ako ng isang award para sa documentary film ko at hindi na nasundan dahil puro trabaho. Mukha pala akong tao kapag nakaayos at mukhang halimaw kapag walang tulog. I guess I forgot how to take care of myself a bit these past few years.
"You look beautiful, Lexi..." Napatingin ako sa pumasok dito sa kwarto at si Ate Eliz 'yon na nakabihis at nakaayos na din.
I smiled when I saw ate Eliz on her stunning royal blue dress. Royal blue ang theme ng kasal nina Ate at kaya ganito ang kulay ng mga suot namin.
For the past weeks, Ate Eliz and I spent the days and month together. After the night she got drunk and had a fight with Kuya I did anything I could just to accompany her. Kuya Maccoy couldn't file a leave but he always come home early to have dinner with us kaya tuwang tuwa ang kanyang asawa lalo dahil sa maagang pag-uwi.
It was a smooth month for them and I admire how they handle their relationship too well.
"Ikaw din naman, Ate. Ang ganda mo..." I said.
Nang matapos kaming ayusan ay bumaba na kami sa sala kung saan pinipicture-an na si ate Kass. Tutulong din ako sa pag dala ng mahabang gown nito sa video shoot maya maya dahil nag-hire sila ng magdodocument ng buong kasal.
"Okay! Tilt your head a bit!" The photographer told her and she did what he said.
Ate Kass is wearing a white queen anne topped ballgown embroidered with pearls all over her gown. Ang buhok niya ay nakakulot at may pearl headband na suot suot. She looked angelic wearing her veil and her beauty was enhanced by the light make up applied on her face.
"She looks angelic," I heard ate Eliz whispered. Napatango nalang ako bilang pagsang-ayon sa sinabi niya.
I chuckled when I remembered how ate ranted about Kuya Lance's attitude years ago.
"Time flies so fast and now she's getting married to her enemy."
"Her enemy?" Takang tanong ni ate Eliz.
Oh hindi pala ata niya alam ang storya ng dalawang 'to.
"Magkaaway 'yang dalawang 'yan dati. Lagi silang nagbabangayan and itong si ate nuknukan ng sungit kay Kuya Lance..." Kwento ko. "... Nabasa kasi ng hose 'yan ni Kuya Lance dati." Tumawa pa ako ng maalala 'yon.
