Purple Sky

Prologue

Walang ibang pangarap si Lila kundi magkaroon ng normal na buhay gaya ng karamihan. Nabibilang siya sa makapangyarihang pamilya hindi lang sa Pilipinas kundi sa buong mundo. She had everything but there's always something or someone missing in her life until she meets Mickey. He is the missing piece, he completes her but he didn't feel the same way.

"We're clear na sa wedding plan?" Tanong ng wedding planer kay Lila. She's been staring at her groom-to-be na busy sa phone nito. She knows na hindi interesado ito sa mga pinag-uusapan para sa kasal nila pero pumunta pa rin ito sa scheduled meeting nila. All the decisions were made by her and it hurts her. The wedding is in 6 months and she's just waiting for him to say the words.

Tumingin siya sa wedding planner. "Can you give us a minute, please?" Tumango ito at iniwan sila. Nakaupo siya sa harap nito, hindi man lang napansin niya napansin na silang dalawa na lang ang naiwan sa sala.

"Should we cancel the wedding?" Biglang napatingin sa kanya si Mickey. She can't help but laugh a little. Kanina hindi siya nakikinig pero ngayon nasa kanya na ang atensyon nito. "Lila.." Inilapag ni Mickey ang phone sa lamesa.

"Now I got your attention." Biro nya dito pero sa loob nya nasasaktan na siya. She looked at the plans na nasa lamesa. Inayos nya ang mga iyon at itinabi. "Sorry if I'm not paying attention. Madami lang ako iniisip but you know I agree with whatever you want."

"I'm just waiting, Mickey. Waiting for you to say those words to me. We don't have to do this, you don't have to do this." She can see how much he wanted to say something but he's hesitating.

"I promised, Lila. And I always keep my promises. If this is the way to make up for everything that has happened then I will marry you, I will take care of you and I will love you."
