Epilogue
"Famous love team, Cloudia, recently got married in a magical church wedding in..."
I smirked as I heard the news. Kumakain ng ice cream ang asawa ko habang nakatutok sa TV. A lot of showbiz news outlets has already been reporting our second marriage. The first one was a surprise, so I made sure that the second one is better and well planned.
Although, I wouldn't exactly call it a surprise. Sinabihan ko ang buong media na pakakasalan ko si Claudia. I wanted the whole country to know that.
My eyes went to her, she looked so focused on the screen.
She's my wife. Everything still feels like a dream.
"Why do you keep watching the news?" I asked as I snuggled my head on her neck.
"Baby!" she softly chuckled.
We had our honeymoon yesterday. We immediately went on a flight to El Nido. She wanted to go to a beach and I happened to have a private jet ready for us.
"Hey, I thought we agreed with love?" Ngumuso ako sa kanya. I intertwined our hands together as I pulled her closer.
"Love or baby, it's all fine I love you and you are my baby as well..." she pinched my cheeks.
Namula ang mukha ko sa sinabi niya.
Damn! I never thought I'd be this love struck with her. She used to be a dream. And now this dream is all mine...
"Where's our money? Sabi mo, bibigyan mo kami?"
I remember everything before it all started. I was a dumb rich high school kid who didn't have any friends. Hating on the life my family has given me, as a Bradford and Forster.
"Why would I give you money?" I raised a brow.
Binatukan ako nung isa kaya sinimangutan ko siya. Akmang susuntukin ko rin pero alam kong di wais gawin iyon. They are five, and I'm just one.
"Oo nga, Bradford. Your father has a lot of money from fucking rich hot women, it wouldn't even cause a dent from your account..." sabi pa nung isa bago nagtawanan sila.
Tsk.
"I don't have money. At kung meron man ako, hindi ko kayo bibigyan." Inalis ko hawak nila sa akin at akmang lalagpasan nalang.
"Aba, tumatapang ka na—"
"Eton, wag mo na patulan. Baka isumbong tayo niyan," halakhak nung isa.
Iniwasan ko na sila at nagpatuloy ng lakad. Papasok na sana ako ng restroom, nang marinig ko nanaman ang mga salita nila.
"His mother Daria Forster, must've gotten a lot from those billionaires no? I mean she was one of the top highest paying models, hindi malabong nakuha niya iyon sa—"
Hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili. Insultuhin na nila tatay ko wag lang si Mama.
"Cloud!" Narinig ko ang boses ni Clarisse. She ran to my side and pulled me from there.
Humarang siya sa gitna. Those jerks, wala ng ibang ginawa kundi ang guluhin ako sa araw-araw. There's more reasons for me now to not give them any money.
Akmang susuntukin ulit ako ni Eton pero pumagitna si Clarisse.
"What? Susuntukin mo rin ako?" Matapang na saad niya kay Eton.
"Get out of there, Clarisse! Bakit mo ba pinagtatanggol 'yang si Bradford?!" Galit na pasinghal ni Eton.
Clarisse smirked. "Kasi crush ko siya, bakit?"
