Holding On With Maybe (Holding On Series #2)

"That's the best part."

The wedding preparation was intense.

Ken and Mau seriously want to get married that fast that I feel like the months that flew were just weeks. I asked them the first time they asked for help with their preparation if they don't want to be engaged for a year.

But they just told me that why do they have to wait for another year when they've been thinking about marrying each other for years?

Hindi na ako nakipagtalo sa kanila.

Ice Breaker: I'm already in the lobby.

Hindi na ako nag-reply kay Timothy at nagtungo na lang sa elevator. Today's the bachelor and bachelorette party of Ken and Mau, both of them have no idea because this is a surprise. The guys prepared something for Ken and I did too, for Mau.

"Timothy," I called as I waved my hand in his direction.

He gave me a smile when he saw me and got the bag I was carrying from my hand.

"Can I ask what kind of bachelor party are you throwing for Ken?" I asked nang makapasok na kaming dalawa sa mustang niya.

After the months that flew and the talk we had during the engagement party, Timothy and I began to become closer. We didn't talk that much about us for the months that passed, I don't see anything wrong with it though, especially now that both sides are now clear, specifically that part that we're not dating anyone.

I don't even want him to pressure us because he's still busy with reviewing. Ilang linggo na lang din naman at BAR month na. I want him to get that done first before us.

I mean, us, can wait. I waited for years, I know he did too. So, how about we add more weeks to test our patience?

"Why are you asking? Are you worried because there might be girls?" He amusingly asked.

"I just want to secure my hope that there's still a wedding about to happen next week," I shrugged.

"How dare you doubt us?" He asked as he started the engine.

"Are you offended?"

"No, because there will be no girls at the party. Just us, the guys," he responded. "Assured now? It's my time to ask... will there be macho dancers at your party?

"What if meron?"

"What if we crashed into your party?" He taunted.

"So uptight," I shook my head, pretending to be disappointed.

Timothy just chuckled and continued to drive on the way to the venue I rented today. I even asked Vaughn if he knows a place where we could paint and drink since Mau loves to paint and Vaughn suggested that we can just rent one of his friend's art studio.

I randomly told Mau to list her close girl-friends, we were busy that time kaya hindi na niya tinanong kung para saan yun. When I saw her list, it was her friends from her high school and college, it was just around seven and some are even very familiar including my cousin. Kaya may nakatulong din ako kahit papaano sa pagpaplano nitong party para kay Mau.

Pagdating namin sa venue, ihahatid pa sana ako ni Timothy sa mismong loob noong studio pero pinigilan ko siya.

"Okay na ako rito," sabi ko sa kanya, nag-park siya sa parking space sa harap ng building kung nasaan yung art studio noong kaibigan ni Vaughn.

"Fine, text me if you need a ride home," he replied.

"You'll drive back here? E mag-iinom din naman kayo mamaya," I told him.
