He left me.

"The wedding bells are ringing. Everything's perfect. I'm already dressed, all white for this special moment.

This would probably be the best day of my life because finally... finally everything's settled.

I looked at the whole body mirror in front of me. This white, white long gown. It's details are just perfect. Perfect for a beautiful day. My hair is tied up in a messy bun with braids on the sides and a tiara connecting the long veil that will later on cover my face.

I can't stop smiling. I looked tall because of the 5-inch heels I'm wearing. My make up is already done. My jewelries are already on me.

I was frightened when the door opened but I smiled when I saw it was my mom and dad, crying. I smiled and hugged them but they seemed not to notice me. They were to spaced out. I frowned. It's my special day and they are acting strange. I just shrugged it of and gained my smile again.

"Mom, dad. I'm going" i hummed. But they didn't even throw a glance at me.

I stepped in the bridal car and the driver started driving to the church where our wedding will be held.

I smiled while looking at the window. It's dow pouring but no negativity can ruin this perfect day.

The car stopped at the church, it is closed. I pushed it open and there was no one there. Ohh... Wait. There he is. The love of my life. Lorenzo.. But wait. Is he crying?

I gasped, he is crying just like my mom and dad at the hotel room. I ran towards him and hugged him tight. "Babe? Are you okay?" He didn't respond and did not even throw a glance on me nor hugged me back.

"Why do you have to leave me now on our wedding day?" He cried. "God!" He stood up and looked at the altar. "Why do you have to take her now!? She has dreams." He broke down. He kneeled and started sobbing like there's no tomorrow. "EEEEEEEMMMMMM!"

Then it hit me... Am I... Dead? Fck!"

Naiyak ako sa binabasa kong libro. Di ko yata kakayanin pag nanyari samin 'to ni Lorenzo. At talagang kapangalan pa namin. Feeling ko tuloy kami yung nasa story kaya di ko na napigilan ang pag break down ko.

Ito namang katabi ko ay hinahagod lamang ang likod ko dahil sobra na yung pagiyak ko. "Babe tama na, sorry kung di ako nakareply. Sobrang busy ko lang babe." Pilit nya akong pinapatahan at hinahalikan sa muka.

"Basahi mo kasi!" Inabit ko sakanya ang librong kanina ki pa binabasa.

He gave me a questioning look at umirap ako sabay pinunasan ang mga luha ko. "Di ako galit kasi di ka nagrereply kanina. Naiyako ako kasi gawa n'yang binabasa ko." He sighed in relief.

"Alam mo na, emosyonal talaga mga buntis." I giggled, nanlaki ang mata nya sa sinabi ko. "Damn, nakabuo na tayo!?" Masiglang sabi nya. I nodded and smiled at him widely.

"DADDY NA AKOOOO!" sigaw nya't niyakap ako.

"Shh, ingay mo babe!" Suway ko sakanya't tumawa. Yep, we're married for almost a month now. And Saturday ngayon kaya wala akong pasok sa office.

I smiled everything's just too perfect...

Nagising ako sa isang malakas na beep sound. Ang liwanag masyado kaya't pumikit pikit ako at inintay makapag-adjust ang mata ko.
