The CEO's Secretary

Chapter 46:Wedding Day

(Sebastian's POV)
I am now walking in the aisle ready to wait Sophia in the end of it.

The best man and the maid of honor are now making its way to the aisle.

They are being followed by the cute and lovely flower girls. Wearing their wonderful smiles.

It's so weird that my guests are so happy when the groom itself isn't.

The principal sponsors are on the aisle now. They are composed of rich business partners and family friends of our own families.

The wedding singer now changed the song to a more melodic and romantic song. A cue that the bride will come out any longer.

Nagsara na ang pinto, not really the door but there's a curtain-like fabric na nagtakip dun. Gets?

Lumabas na si Mr. and Mrs. Larameda. Nagtaka ako nung una, dahil akala ko kasabay nilang lumabas si Sophia. Nang makaupo na si Mr. and Mrs. Larameda, biglang may nagvoice-over.

"Good Day ladies and gentlemen."

Tumingin ako sa paligid ko. I'm surprised na nakangiti lang ung mga tao. Parang ako lang ang nabibigla sa mga nangyayari. Pero, hinayaan ko lang un. Baka wedding jitters lang tong nararamdaman ko.

"Ako po si Sophia Larameda. Ang dapat ikakasal kay Mr. Sebastian Perez."

Sophia? Si Sophia ang nagsasalita. Inilibot ko ulit ang paningin ko. Pilit hinahanap si Sophia.

What's happening? I look like an innocent boy wandering in a dangerous and creepy forest. Not aware on what is happening around me.

"Dahil sa mga nangyari, may narealize ako bigla. Na dapat, wag kang mang-apak ng ibang tao. Na dapat wag kang maninira ng buhay ng tao. Na dapat wag kang mang-agaw ng hindi sayo. Na dapat wag pilitin ang ayaw ng puso ko. At masaya kong sinasabi sa inyong lahat, na ako ay nagbago na."

Okay. So what's really happening now?

"Good Morning ladies and gentlemen."

Unlike kanina, manly ung voice na narinig ko. And parang familiar ung voice na ito.

"I'm Van Perez, cousin of the groom and ex-fiancé of Aisha Talaez."

So paano nadamay si Aisha dito? The atmosphere in this place is really getting weirder.

"I supposed to hate making or joining into plans. Halos lahat yata ng mga planong nakasama ako, walang magandang naidulot sa akin. Until Sophia proposed a plan. A plan that was tend to make us happy. I was hesitant at first to be concerned in this plan, but I know that this would help us, to move on. I realized that letting go is not always on the darker side. It also has advantage. And that advantage would make us happy. We should  always be selfless. If we want to be happy, the people around us and the person we love should be happy as well. And I'm proud to say that I choose Aisha to be happy and also Myself to be happy. I'm finally giving Aisha to you Sebastian. But never ever hurt her. Or else, I'll never think twice but to hurt you as well."

I'm speechless right now. I don't know what to say. As time pass by I started to realize what is happening now.

The wedding violinist strummed her violin to a melodic tune.

"Ladies and gentlemen. We present you, the soon-to-be Mrs. Perez. Ms. Aisha Talaez!"

I was left dumbfounded. The singer started to sing. The guests stood up and offered their applauses. The curtains fell down, revealing the bride. Revealing my beautiful Aisha with her mother.
