The Wife Of Forgotten

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

They said, the day will come when something will be set for you. The man who will always love you and always choose you. The man who won't trade you for anyone. And always take care for you until you both you had white hair.

But, what if I told this? That I'm not ready for kinds of marriage. ..They said, if you into relationship you need to bear. Love is like gambling, you have to be ready to lose.

But I'm not ready. I'm still enjoying my life. I have so many things to do important. Like travelling with my self, treat my self in just cup of coffe. And talk some of my friends.

But how would I do that if I'm getting married to someone? And the worst is.. I don't know him.

Malay ko bang, baka nananakit siya or hindi naman kaya ay may balak pala itong nakawan ang pamilya ko.

Argh! Hindi ko na talaga alam kong anong gagawin ko. And I'm going crazy.

I said to myself, that I should not stress my self. But what would I do?! Ito pa nga lang stress na stress na 'ko. Buhay may asawa pa kaya?

Naniningkit ang mga matang sumimsim ako sa kape. I need to relax sometimes. Hindi ko obligado na dalhin lahat at isipin ang mga problema ko. Sometimes I need to put them a side. Hindi ko kailangan ipag nudnuran ang sarili ko riyan.

I deeply sigh. Ibinaba ko ang tasa ng kape ko sa maliit na plato. I've been doing this for so long. Ngayon pa ba ako susuko?

I know god. Maybe he challenge me again now. He just testing me. Pero kahit kailan hindi ako susuko. In my 21 years of being a live, dahil lang dito susuko ako?

No way...

Napatulala ako. Until now, dinaramdam ko pa rin lahat ng mga sinabi nila sa akin. And until now I can't believe that I'm going to married someone that I don't know.

Siguro binilog ng taong iyon ang ulo ng mga magulang ko para maikasal lang sa 'kin.

I smirked. If he thought na mauuto niya ko umupo na lang siya riyan, dahil baka abutin lang siya ng ilang libong taon bago mangyari iyon.

I shooked my head. I'm being sound arrogant now, huh. This is the effect of that damn arrangement.

I need someone to talk. I want to rant—

Suddenly someone's name show in my mind. It's Denisse! I hurriedly took my phone and find her to my contacts.

Denisse Maureen Reeve

I tap her name. Inilapag ko ang cellphone ko sa mesa. I crossed my two arms in my chest and rest my back in back rest of my chair.

I look outside of the café while I'm waiting Denisse to pick up the phone. I didn't bother some people looking at me like I'm celebrity. All I know I'm just a business women, has eight branches in other countries. I'm wearing my sunglasses so I'm safe.

The call made five rings before she picked up the phone.

“Hello?” Her softly voice.

I tap my earphone in my ear before speak. Nakatingin pa rin ako sa labas. Hindi alintana ang mga taong nasa paligid.

“Are you free?” I asked.

Minutes past she doesn't answer. Tinignan ko pa ang phone kong nasa mesa kong namatay ba ang connection pero hindi naman. The call still running.

“Denisse? Hello are you still there?”

“Why did you call?” she coldly said.

My mouth turns to 'o' ngunit nakabawi rin naman at napangisi. Hindi pa rin siguro ito nakaka move on no'ng isang araw. Still.. I don't know what she's talking about that time.. but I don't care.
