The Dangerous Turkish Man (Dangerous Shadows series 1)

Chapter 28

Nagtipon-tipon na ang mga lalaki sa gitna ng oras na para sa gagawing tossing of garter.

Is it me? Or marami ang mga sumali?

"Woah! It looks like, many of our bachelors likes the lucky soon-to-be bride...", sabi naman ng host habang nakatingin sa pagdami pa ng mga sumasali.

Most of the men who were going infront already loooked like in their 30s and on their mid 20s.

Who are you looking for, Ysrielle?

I shake the thought out of my head at itinuon nalamang ang atensyon sa host na muling nagsalita, "Alright, gentlemen, are you all ready?!", masigla na tanong ng host na kaagad din naman na sinagot ng mga lalaki.

"On my count, Mr. Çetin...", sabi naman ng host at nakita ko na tumalikod na si Ceyhun.

"One!...", naggulat nalamang ako na kaagad na hinagis nito ang garter at nagsimula nang magsiabuta ang mga lalaki sa garter.

Naghiyawan ang mga nanunuod habang nagkukumpulan ang mga lakaki. A few seconds later ay nagsalita na ang host, "So... who will be the next groom-to-be?", hindi ko halos makita kung sino na ang nakakuha ng garter, and my heart is hammering like crazy as I wait for the one who will be putting the garter on my thigh.

Or you mean, expecting someone to wear it on you.

Again, I shook the thought out of my head as I feel sweat form on my forehead.

"And, here is our lucky bachelor!", nagsialisan na ang ibang mga lalaki, making it hard for me to see who got the garter.

"Excuse me, sir. What is your name?", narinig ko na tanong ng host, I can feel my fingers tremble and my heart beating faster, habang hinihintay na ngayon ang pagsagot ng maglalagay sa akin ng garter.

Please... be him...

"Alekzander...", I can feel my heart beat dropping, when I finally heard the baritone voice, and clearly saw who the man is.

His shoulder length brownish, blonde hair was tied in a bun, and he was wearing a dark blue coat and slacks.

He looks...Familiar?

"Oh, okay. So Mr. Alekzander... Since you have the garter-", but he was suddenly cut off, "No... This is a mistake, you see... I was on my way to the toilet...", sabi nito sabay turo  at tingin sa daan sa kung saan patungo sa sa cr, tapos ay bumalik na ulit ang tingin nito sa host "When I was suddenly pushed by a crowd of men going here infront. So I didn't really participated...", pagpapaliwanag naman nito, "Oh, so how did the garter went to your hand then?", tanong naman ng host.

"Well, it just landed on top of me...", kaagad naman nito na sagot, then there was silence. I can see the host looking at him like he didn't really believed the things that he just said.

Well I do. Cause It also happened to me.

"Yeah, right...", sabi naman nito in a sarcastic way, but trying to make it still sound like he was just joking, "Look, sir. You will just put the garter on her thigh, okay? That simple...", sabi ulit ng host at tinuro ang hintuturo sa akin habang nakahawak sa mic.

"But, I don't really want to...", sagot naman ng lalaki, earning yet another awkward silence.

Yeah, I don't want to be here too bud.

"Ahmmm...", napakamot na ang host sa kaniyang batok habang nag-iisip ng masasabi sa lalaki, "Okay. Uhh, If that's the case then I guess...", tumingin ito kay Ceyhun, "Mr. Çetin, if it is okay with you. Will you toss the garter again?", tanong naman nito, at tumango naman si Ceyhun bilang sagot, tapos ay naglakad naman ang lalaki papalapit kay Ceyhun at bunalik dito ang hawak na garter, bago na naglakad paalis.
