STRANDED HEART

CHAPTER 13

TINGHUN DAY

Maaga pa lang ay abala na ang lahat sa pag hahanda para sa Engagement o Tinghun sa Chinese ang dalawang pamilya

"Sup Ahia "imik ni Nhai Ng puntahan nya ang kuya nya sa kwarto nito

"Why didn't you getting ready yet "tanong ni Arc kay Nhai

"Why ?am I the one who's getting engaged? It's you who should get ready "sagot ni Nhai dito

"But kidding aside Ahia you really sure now about this ?"pagtatanong pa ni Nhai sa kuya nya

"I am , I'm really sure since the first time I lay my eyes on him , it's like a love at first sight .Even though he said there's already someone who owns his heart it's okay to me dahil ako naman ang pakakasalan" pag kukwento ni Arc dito at bahagya lang ngumiti si Nhai sa narinig na sinabi ng Ahia nya

"Hhhhmmm   Okay I'll leave you here now get ready and don't be nervous,I'll see you later "paalam nito sa Ahia nya bago lumabas ng kwarto nito

Nhai knows what he's brother means about what Four said ,he knows it was him at nasasaktan sya kapag naiisip nya kung paanong paulit -ulit na sinubukan ni Four na kumbinsi syang lumayo sila pero wala syang ginawa

For him pushing away himself to Four is hard for him because it's like betraying his own happiness for the sake of his father who wants this things happen and for his brother who is now Inlove with the same person he is Inlove with .

"Pasok "

"You getting ready Son?"pagtatanong ng Ina nito pag pasok sa kwarto ni Four

"Yes Ma ,May kailangan po ba kayo ?"tanong ni Four sa Ina

"Halika "Aya nito at naupo sila pareho sa kama

"This is a broach that my Mom gave to me before I get married to your Dad I wore this on my Tinghun too and this should be given to the next  Woman who will get married in our family but since I'm the only child and I don't have any daughter I'm giving this to you ,wear it ."paliwanag ng Ina ni Four dito sabay abot sa kanya ng box na may lamang diamond broach

"I'll wear this Ma ,Thank you "sagot ni Four sa Ina

"You really sure now about this ?"

"I fight for it Ma —but now I'm ready to accept it "sagot nito sa Ina

"I'm always proud of you Son ,I love you  "

"Thank you Ma ,I love you too and thank you for always being there to understand me "sagot ni Four sa Ina

Simula kagabi matapos silang mag usap ni Nhai pinangako ni Four sa sarili nya na gagawin nya na lang din ang kung anong ginagawa ni Nhai and that is being a stranger to each other .

Since Nhai used to act like they don't know each other and just met na realize ni Four na kung sasabayan na lamang nya ang ganoong daloy ng mga buhay nila ay magiging mas madali sa kanya na tangapin ang kilabasan ng lahat sa kanila ni Nhai

Time passed at nakahanda na ang lahat bihis na ang lahat at handa ng umalis ang pamilya nila Four papunta sa venue kung saan gaganapin ang Tinghun nila

"Ahia ,we need to go now the Papa's secretary called the Cheng family is there already"Imik ni Fifth ng puntahan nya ang kuya Four nya kwarto nito

"Sige susunod na ako "sagot dito ni Four

Four look at himself at the mirror wearing white suit and the broach his Mother gave to him huminga ito ng malalim bago lumabas ng kwarto nya at bumaba kung saan nag hihintay na ang mga magulang nya
