Ikapitong Kabanata - Ang Kasalan

"Aoi!" masiglang tawag sa akin ni Kenji.

Mas lalo naman na lumawak ang ngiti ko nang makita ko siya. He's now wearing the white suit we picked for him when we went to the wedding boutique last time.

Kenji is one of my cousins, but I consider him not only as my cousin but as my brother. When I needed someone the most, he was there for me. He was the only person who tolerated my horrible hobbies and unreasonable personality. Seeing him in his white wedding suit makes me want to cry.

"You look handsome," I complimented him.

Omega originally had a fair, porcelain-like complexion, which made Kenji even more elegant and graceful. Partnering with his leadership ability, despite being an omega, makes him more powerful. Only by looking, no one could mess with him.

I watched him grow up, and seeing him get married makes me feel like I'm going to marry my omega son.

"Aoi, are you okay with this?" he asked, worriedly.

Alam ko na kaagad ang gusto niyang sabihin kaya naman nginitian ko siya. "Kahit naman ayaw nila sa akin, wala naman silang magagawa. Isa pa, ikaw ang nag-imbita sa akin hindi sila. Why would I feel worried or affected?"

He solemnly looked at me, then sighed. "Fine." He took my hand and smiled at me. Naramdaman ko naman ang panginginig ng kamay niya. "If ever you feel uncomfortable, just leave, okay? I-text mo na lang ako kung umalis ka, naiintindihan mo ba?"

Tumango naman ako. I patted the back of his hand. "Yes, I understand. You don't have to be nervous," I told him and then hugged him. "I'm really proud of you, Kenji. Despite being recessive, you found your fated mate. You deserve it more than anyone else."

I heard him sniffle a little. Napaalis naman ako sa pagkakayakap. "Don't cry. Baka mamaya isipin ng iba na binully kita," natatawa ko na sabi. "Congratulations on your wedding, cousin."

He smiled widely at me. "Thank you, big brother Aoi."

We talked for a little longer, and then I left. Hindi naman kasi ako pwede magtagal doon dahil maya maya pa ay tatawagin na rin siya to walk to the ailes.

Nang makarating ako sa loob ay napansin ko naman na marami nang tao. Dahil galing na rin naman ako rito kanina nang wala pang tao, alam ko na kung saan ako at ang circle ko naka-upo. Since we're Kenji's circle members, we have priority. Also, given na pinsan din ako ni Kenji, talagang polite ang iba sa akin.

Habang naglalakad ay nararamdaman ko ang matatalim na tingin, and for sure, na galing ito sa mga mata ng pamilya ni Takeru. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyari o kung may nagawa man akong hindi maganda para mangyari ito. I mean, dahil lang bas a wala akong magandang family background sa kanilang pag-imbistiga ay gaganitohin na nila ako? They are more unreasonable than I am.

"Aoi!"

Naalingo naman ako at mas lalong napalawak ang ngiti ko nang makita koa ng ilan sa mga pinsan naming ni Kenji.

"The hell, Aoi, bakit ngayon ka lang nagpakita sa amin? Balita ko ay noong nakaraan ka pa nakauwi." Napangiwi naman ako nang magsimula nang magsalita nag nakakatanda naming pinsan na si Kuya Luie.

"Big brother Luie, may inasikaso pa po kasi ako." Napakamot naman ako sa ulo ko.

Pinagalitan pa ako ng mga nakakatanda kong pinsan at ang mga nakakabata naman naming pinsan ni Kenji ay sinuportahan ang mga nakakatanda naming pinsan. Ang galing naman, pinagkaisahan ako.

"Sige na, magpunta ka na sa circle table mo. Alam naman naming ayaw mo na may makaalam kung sino ka," nakangiting sambit ni Kuya Rob saka kumindat sa akin.
