CHAPTER NINETEEN

"So, how's being married?" Penelope asked as she was walking with her best friend near the beach.

Just this morning they arrived in Zambales with Andrew as they will have their highschool batch grand reunion. It was arranged since last year. Lowell will be late due to work.

"What do you think?" Catrin replied, smiling. As she welcoming the fresh breeze of air, it was cold, yet so calm.

Penelople laughed. "So, when will you plan to tell him?" she switched the topic.

Catrin bowed and stopped from walking. "I don't know..."

"He deserves to know," Penelope commented.

"I know..." she softly said. "...but I don't know how,"

"Catrin?" Penelope sighed. "He's not like any other man. He is your husband. And he is inlove with you."

She looked at her bestfriend and gave her a smile.

"L-lowell, I..." she was cut. He covered her mouth with his forefinger.

"I don't want to rush you," he started. "...I can wait,"

Her heart is pounding in so much love for this man.

"I will wait, till your heart finally ready to love me," Lowell bursting out all his emotions, declaring his love to her.

"Lowell..." she embraces him as tear forming again into her eyes.

It was the night after the confrontation of Alyssa to her in-laws house. She sighed.

"So, you're here?" a female voice.

The two both looked on their backs and to their surprised. It's Misty.

"Misty?" Penelope muttered in disgust.

Catrin just silently looked at her.

"As expected, I will saw you here." Misty uttered in a not good tone. She grinned sheepishly.

"Excuse me," Catrin said and walked out. She can't stay longer with Misty. She forgot that Misty might also attend the reunion. They are classmates.

"Catrin!" Penelope called and supposed to follow her when Misty stopped her, grabbed her on the arm.

"Don't stop her." Misty told.

Penelope drastically turned on her, giving her a fearsome look.

Misty laughed. "You're such a good bestfriend." She mocked. "...as always."

"I'm warning you, Misty," Penelope uttered in a firmed voice. "...I will not forgive you, if hurt her. Don't you dare! You know me."

Misty barks out laughter as she shook her head. "Paranoid?" she told then leaved.

I will not let you, Misty. You've done too much. I will not let you destroy my happiness. Catrin said at the back of her as she walking back to their cottage. Lowell might arrive already, any moment. Due to his work, he will be late. Instead, he suggested her to go with Andrew and Penelope and then he will follow them later.

"Honey!" Lowell called as he saw her coming.

She smiled and half ran to him, hugged him as he welcome her with a kiss on the lips.

"I miss you," she uttered.

Lowell laughed. "We just saw each other this morning," he commented, amused. Everytime, he heard those words from his wife, his heart can't help but jump-out in so much happiness.
