Cards: Ash Crisanto

Chapter 49: Confession #3

Mere's POV

"I want it simple, Ash." I groaned, sinamaan niya ko ng tingin at pati si Raven masama ang tingin sakin.

Napahilot ako sa ulo ko at ramdam na ramdam ang bigat sa kaliwang kamay.

A huge rare diamond engagement ring was there with a gold wedding ring na feeling ko ay kapresyo ng walong isla sa mahal. And despite of my headache I couldn't help but smile at my crazy obsessive now husband. Who would have thought that we would share the same last name in a span of days just because he's scared that I might slip through his fingers again. Ibang klase rin kasing manggatong sila Devon!

"I don't want it simple." masungit niyang sabi at tinanguan ang foreigner na designer,

I like the wedding gown, okay? It's very elegant and unique pero nang malaman kong higit milyon ang halaga nun? Napailing ako at umayaw na. That's just ridiculous. I won't spend my money on that.

"Ash, we're married already. This is just formality, why do we have to spend too much?"

"Spending too much? It wouldn't even touch my savings, Mere."

Ugh! Rich bastard! Mukhang hindi ako mananalo. He gave me a sheepish look, almost begging me to cooperate so I gave up.

"I'll let you sell all the rings and gowns. So please."

"Fine! And just so you know? Ibebenta ko talaga ang mga yun, pati na ang condo ko at iyon ang ipandadagdag sa budget." Angil ko at hinayaang sukatan ako,

"Psh. Budget? What budget? He doesn't have a budget, Mere. You will be surprised to know what he has in mind for this wedding." ngising mayabang ni Raven at saka kami iniwan para puntahan si Snowy,

"What's he saying? Ash?" tinalikuran ako ni Ash at saka kunyaring nagtatanong sa mga coordinator,

Tsk. Lalong sumasakit ang ulo ko!

I let the designer take my attention. I love the gown, hindi ito parang ball gown sa laki it's a tube style na halos backless ang disenyo with leaves pattern sa harap, there are swarovski stones on the design that seems to sparkle everytime I move. The train is very unique, the embroidery looks so delicate and the design reminds me those patterns na vines sa mga old books, sobrang haba pa nito na parang sa prinsesa. But what I like the most in this gown is it's color, it is not pure white, may halo itong dove gray na bumagay sa makikintab na kolorete ng gown.

It's damn pricey but it's worth it, I guess...

"Where should I drop you?" tanong sakin ni Ash, may lakad sila nila Raven today, I don't know what it is about but it sounded serious.

"Sa condo muna, I need to prepare may meeting kami tungkol sa Russian Collection, mamayang gabi na yun."

He took my left hand and kissed my palm. He admired the rings before finally looking at me. He smiled and kissed my lips na parang satisfied na satisfied siya sa nakikita. And that made me so happy.

"Susunduin kita after. Update me, okay?"

"Sure, babe." Tango ko, he turned his attention to his phone dahil tinawagan nanaman niya sila Kuya Jet, checking on Aelyx of course. He's such a worrier! Madalas namang maalagaan na nila Kuya si Aelyx kaya panatag naman ako, and Lola is there too hindi naman niya hahayaang panggigilan nila Devon si Aelyx.

"Ba't kasi di pa mag-anak si Jet? Hindi yung anak ko laging hinihiram. Tsk." maktol nito,

"He will soon. For now let them play with Aelyx, at isa pa wala namang kalaro si Aelyx satin. At least, nakakapaglibang sila." tawa ko, he moved his hand on my stomach and slowly traced on it.
