CHAPTER 11 : Talk

SAMANTHA VYRONICA FERRER POV

Nasa isang catering center ako ngayon para magcheck sa ihahanda sa reception. They even prepared samples! Kaya naman ay hindi talaga ako kumain ng agahan para matikman ko lahat ng pagkain.

I should relax at hindi na mag-isip pa. After what happened the other day.

"Pinatawag niyo daw ako?" Ani ko sa mababang boses.

Nasa harap ako ngayon ni Judge Alvaro na nakatingin sa akin ng masama.

"Naibalita sa amin ang nangyaring pagsugod mo kay Ms Fuerte. Bigyan mo nga ako ng rason?"

I smiled bitterly. The memory from yesterday's night makes me sad again. Damn it.

"I just found out that my client who I keep depending on this court lied to me, using evidence and some people to be the witness, she even paid some investigators and police to cover up. And not just that, it may sound immature but she's flirting with my fiancé while being secretly married to someone, the marriage took place in Las Vegas"

Napatawa naman si Judge Alvaro. "Okay, ipapalampas ko ito. Pero sana ay kahit dinoble mo man lang sampal ano?"

Natawa naman ako at napayuko. Akala ko naman ay kung ano na ang kanyang sasabihin sa akin. "How do you find yourself joking in the middle of a serious conversation, ninong?"

He shrugged. "You looked sad. I just want to see you smile. You're getting married, pero mukhang sa palungkot ka"

I forced a smile. "You really are unbelievable ninong. By the way, you'll go to my wedding right? Kakarating lang ng invitations na pinagawa ko. Here one for you and one for ninang."

Inabot ko ito sa kanya at kinuha naman niya ito. He looked at it and nodded. "Anong gusto mong regalo? Aba'y nasa iyo naman na ata ang lahat."

I giggled and chatted with him for another couple of minutes. Paano naman kung hindi ko ninong yun? Patay ako kung magkataon.

I figured out that he was just using me. Dashell is using me to get my company. He even dared to be a superhero para mahulog na naman ako sa kanya. He's too much. This is so boring and I cannot even expect this to be like this in a blink of an eye.

"Why are you not with your soon-to-be husband, Miss?" The chef asked.

I bitterly smiled. "Busy." Lie.

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang ginagawa niya sa araw na 'to. Hindi ko alam kung nasaan siya at kung gumaling na ba ang sugat niya.

Hindi ako nagpakita sa kanya. Hindi ko 'rin sinasagot ang tawag niya, even his parents. Hindi sinasabi kong talagang nasaan ako but today, schedule talaga namin ang pumunta dito but he didn't come.

Hindi niya siguro alam, nakalimutan o sadyang hindi pumunta. Since manggagamit lang naman siyang tao. I don't care where he is.

"Are you sure of the Invited guesses of 2000 maximum?" the chef asked.

He was looking at me weirdly making it awkward for me to respond. Kanina pa kakaiba ang titig niya at kinikilos niya.

Natawa ako. "We are not a normal couple, Chef. We do business and there's a lot to invite with since we're holding more than 5 branches. My husband has a lot of friends and coworkers since he's an actor." I paused.

"I can pay through cash. I can even double it if the service is good. The food that I've tasted is great so I considered those"

He nodded. "That's a great choice of food. So I will just give you a receipt and the menu of the chosen foods"
