Conquer Ones Love

5- Away

~Away~

Rigel's POV

Naalimpungatan ako dahil sa malalakas na katok na nagmumula sa pintuan ko.

Tok! Tok! Tok!

"Argh! Stop knocking the door. I'm sleeping for Pete's sake! Stop disturbing me!" I shout and cover my head with my pillow.

"Ellysia, come on wake up. You and Derrick have a schedule today for the preparation of your wedding." My mom shouted behind the door.

"My god! Why do we even need to be there?"

"Don't ask too many questions. For now, just get up from your bed and start to dress up. Derrick might be here in a couple of minutes."

I already hate this day. It's too early for me to wake up!

I left no choice but to get dress. Besides sira na din naman ang tulog ko.

Bumaba na ako ng matapos na akong magbihis and naabutan ko sa labas si mom na nakaupo habang umiinom ng coffee and nagbabasa ng magazine until she saw me.

"Buti naman at nakabihis ka na."

"Yeah, as if naman na may choice ako. Eh nasira na yung tulog ko."

"Bakit maga ang mga mata mo? Umiyak ka ba?"

No. I laughed all night, that's why my eyes are swollen. Psh! What do you think mom?

"Hindi lang maayos ang tulog ko saka puyat lang 'to. Late na din kasi ako natulog... Bakit ba kasi hindi nalang kayo yung mag-ayos ng wedding namin?"

"Bakit kami ang mag-aayos? Kami ba ang ikakasal?"

I shook my head.

"Then, dapat lang na kayo ang mag-ayos dahil kayo naman ang ikakasal. Kung ano ang gusto niyo yun dapat ang mangyari sa wedding niyo and also for you to have some quality time with Derrick. Malay niyo this is the way para makilala niyo ang isa't-isa at magkaroon ng magandang ugnayan."

"That will never happen. Anyway, I also want to ask you mom. Kami ba ang may gusto ng wedding?"

Natahimik si mom.

"I'll take that as a, NO. Kung ganon mas lalong hindi ang gusto namin ang dapat na masusunod dahil kayo ang may gusto nito. Hindi kami." After that, hindi na talaga nagsalita si mom at tumalikod nalang.

*Car beeps*

"Derrick is already here, it's better if you'll go now."

I just pick up my bag and just go to DJ without any other word. As soon as I reach DJ's car I went inside and seat in the shotgun's seat. The ride is quiet and when we're in the middle of our way to our destination, he suddenly asked...

"Where will we go?" He asked while he was driving.

"Don't you have the address?"

He shook his head.

"I'll call mom." I dial mom's number.

(Hello?)

"Mom, why you didn't gave me the address?"

(I forgot. I'm sorry.)
