Sapphire’s POV
“Good wishes to the newlyweds! Cheers!” I faked a smile and linked my wineglass with them. Oh, by the way they’re my dad’s and husband’s business partners.
Today is my wedding day. It’s a blissful day for someone in love. But no, not me. I mean, yeah, I’m in love but it’s unrequited. Tsch. What a wretched fate I have here.
Di ko rin naman sya masisisi eh. I’m an ass and I admit it. I opted such drastic measures. /wrist.
You know, I’m young and wild and yeah, desperate. -_- Kaya ayun, I planned a scheme to have Grinn. Grinn De Silva, the hottest bachelor in town. He’s an engineer in my Daddy’s construction firm. At ako naman ang archi. See? I’m not that loathsome. Maganda naman ako, mayaman at isa pa, I’M ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER BACHELORETTES for jissakes!
Oh well, so much for that, I got myself a glass of tequila and gathered my spirit. I went to where my dearly loved husband is.
“Hey, want a drink?” I asked. Though, I knew that he’ll never answer me kindly. Lagi yang pabalang sumagot. And for the record, sa’kin lang sya ganyan.
“*smirks* Oh? What do we have here, Mrs. De Silva? Another awful scheme of yours? Well, what do I expect... you’re a hell of a plotter and I must say I’M IMPRESSED.” See what I mean? And after his infamous spiel, he showed me his infamous mocking smile.
“Don’t start with me, Grinn. Wag kang mag-eskandalo. Kahit ngayon lang.”
He smirked then held my chin. “Why? You’re scared that they might find out how disgusting you and your brother were? Now, now, Sapphire Angeles- De Silva, I never got an orientation. My bad.”
Nakipaglaban ako ng titigan sa kanya. I just can’t afford to humiliate myself this time. Kahit naman ngayon lang, it’s my wedding for Pete’s sake!
Then, boom. Our staring contest started. And the guests are starting to wonder about the fuss between us. I guess, they’re thinking that the ‘just marrieds’ had a petty fight. At eto na nga, nagtitinginan na sila.
“Ano ba, Grinn. Shut up, will you?” humarap ako sa mga bisita, “Uhm, everything’s fine. We’re just.. uh.. uhm..-“
“Just talking about our honeymoon! Can’t you give us some privacy, people?! This woman and I just got MARRIED, for jissake!” He cut me off. Oh-kaaaay, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? At eto pa ha, pagkatapos niyang sabihin yun he grabbed me… TAKE NOTE: GRAB. Kinaladkad niya ako at dinala sa garden ng reception hall.
