CHAPTER 3
Isang araw na ang nakalipas ngunit hindi nya paring maiwasan na hindi mainis. "Tinulungan na nga! Arrgghh! I hate him!" natatawa nalang sa kanya si Bea dahil buhat ng bumalik ito sa cottage nila ay panay na ang sumbong nito sa lalaking naka-engkwentro nito sa batuhan.
"Bez! Baka destiny kamu! Haha. Sabi mo gwapo ang lalake—"pinutol ni Mecey ang sasabihin pa sana ng kaibigan niya. Nasa loob sila ng cottage. Simula kasi ng engkwentro between Vince and Mecey hindi na lumalabas sa cottage ang dalaga. Kahit anong pilit ni Bea ayaw talagang lumabas.
"Destiny my ass! Kung hindi lang talaga nag-eenjoy sa outing ang bestfriend ko....kahapon palang bumalik na ako ng Manila!" Naiinis sya sa pambabastos ng Vince na yun. Palibhasa mayaman kaya kayang-kayang bilhin ng pera ang pagtulong nya sa kapwa. Halos sumabog na siya sa inis na lalo lang ikinatawa ng bestfriend niya. Nasisiyahan ito sa nangyayari ngayon sa bestfriend niya. "Pwes! Ibahin nya ako!" Yun ang laging nasa isip ni Mecey.
"Aww! You're so sweet, Bez. Forget about that stranger of yours. Pfttt. Later, wear the light blue cocktail dress that I bought for you. Remember my cousin? He was here at the resort the other day, and he didn't even contact me. Don't say no, because I won't accept it," said Bea, who was about to object but was glared at by Mecey.
"Okay, fine! But we won't stay long, okay? I don't want to be too out of place at the party," Bea said excitedly as she hugged her friend and invited her out of the cottage.
They headed straight to the salon for a makeover. Mecey just shook her head at her friend's hyperactivity. She was lucky to have such a kind and supportive best friend despite her loner tendencies. Bea wasn't snobbish or picky despite her wealthy background. Her parents were among the most popular people in the business world, while her own status was unknown.
"Wow!! Bez, you look stunning! I'm sure my cousin will like you. He might even stop being a woman-hater when he sees you," Mecey said with a smile.
"Tss."
Alam nya sa sarili nya na malabong magustuhan sya ng pinsan nito dahil womanhater nga at isa pa mayaman ito. Baka imbes na humanga sa kanya ay libakin pa sya dahil sa estado ng pamumuhay niya. Knowing rich! Ang tingin sa mahihirap ay basura na walang karapatan makihalubilo sa gatherings nila.
Why? If there were no farmers, would they survive? Do they have a source of food that only the poor work hard for, so that the rich can have something to eat? Why can't they think about these things? Sa kakaisip nya, she didn't realize that they were already in a vast garden where the party was being held. It was a welcome party for Bea's cousin who came from Switzerland and owned the resort. As they entered, the heads of the bachelors turned and their eyes showed admiration for the new arrival. She didn't care about her surroundings; she just wanted to meet Bea's cousin so she could go back to the cottage.
"Hindi uso ang nakasimangot sa party ng couz ko Bez. Hehe. Smile naman dyan dahil nasisira ang make-up mo." Sambit ng Bez nya habang papunta sila sa nakaumpok na mga bigateng businessmen. Nakita nya ang lalake na nakatalikod, naisip nya ito na siguro ang pinsan ng Bez nya.
"Hi couz!" lumingon ang pinsan nito at literal na napanganga sya pagkakita nito sa taong nakasuot ng black tuxedo.
"Oh! Hi there cou—"
"IKAW?!"
"YOU!"nagchorus pa talaga kami. Napatingin sa kanya ang lalaki at ang Bez nya. Napatulala rin ang lalaki ng makita sya. Ngunit nang makabawi ito sa pagkabigla ngumiti ito ng pagkatamis-tamis. Nakatitig lang ito sa kanya kaya napayuko nalang siya sa paraan ng pagtitig nito. Those blue eyes seemed to speak when she looked at them. His pointed nose and lips made it seem like... Arrrgggghhh!
