Sinner's Confessions (Montero Series # 2)

Chapter Twenty Eight

Chapter Twenty Eight

[Enna's POV]

I smiled in the mirror and breathed out. I reminded myself sa sinabi sa'kin ni Father Ben.

I'm tired of being like this and I hope that anytime soon, totoong pagagalingin ako ni God. Because I've lost my trust and faith in Him simula ng magsunod sunod ang mga mamasakit na nangyari sa'min. And for now, I'm still trying to gain it back dahil kay Mikho.

My hubby never loses his faith in us that's why I'm trying to do the same kahit mahirap.

Hindi ko parin kasi maunawaan kung bakit nagkaganito ang buhay namin. Kung bakit sa lahat ang hubby ko pa? Kung bakit ang taong malapit pa Sa kanya ang pinahirapan Niya ng ganito.

You might not see it now but remember that God gives calmness after every storm. You will soon find His perfect purpose between you and Mikho...were the last words na sinabi sa'kin ni Father.

And ng magising ako kanina, I just found myself praying for the first time in a long time.

I prayed na sana matanggal na ang lahat ng negative things na nagpapahirap sa'kin.

But first I prayed na sana bigyan ako ng lakas ni God na tulungan ang sarili ko, just like what Mikho wants me to do.

I hope today would be different.

"I can't wait to see my PRUDE brother's reaction once he sees you down stairs. Baka hindi kana payagan umalis. But you promised that you will come and so I'll just tell him that there's no time to change. Promise me that you won't change if he ask you." Napukaw ang atensiyon ko sa sinabi ni Ate Cassy habang nakatingin din sa life sized mirror.

Excited niya akong tiningnan." Promise me?"

" O-okay," sagot ko kahit hindi ako sigurado.

Ate Cassy wore the V-neck trumpet pastel pink dress that I made. I wasn't still confident with my designs but she looked genuinely pleased kaya medyo nawala ang worry ko. I'm just a bit conscious with my dress kasi ngayon lang nabigay sa'kin ni Liz yung damit na gawa niya and the bad thing was it wasn't the dress that I want.

She insisted that I wear this over the other one. It's a silk satin body-hugging white dress with very low plunging neck, ang laki pa ng slit sa right leg ko, worst my whole back was exposed. She wants me to endorse her design pero hindi siya makakadalo kasi may iba din siyang event na pupuntahan.

Liz tends to be very flashy with her designs. If things would have been different I'd chose to wear this dress but since then when I was diagnosed with depression I began to get conscious of the dresses that I wear. Nagsusuot naman ako ng mga sexy na dress but this dress is way too bold. Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaction ni Mikho. I wasn't even wearing a bra. Pero in-insist din ni Ate na ito ang suotin ko. I don't know what she was thinking, alam naman niyang sobrang conservative si Mikho when it comes to clothes.

"Let's go?"

I nodded at sabay kaming lumabas. Sinalubong agad si Ate ng hubby niya ng nakababa na kami.

" You made the perfect dress for my wife Enna but I don't want to share how perfect she looks tonight. Baka pwede nating takpan ang balikat mo, love?"

Ate Cassie rolled her eyeballs at hindi pinansin ang sinabi ng hubby niya. "Where's Mikho?"

" Trying to make a graceful exit. Mukhang umiyak si Sari kaya baka umiyak narin iyong isa."

I sighed and thought of seeing them first pero hindi ko naman alam ang gagawin ko. Only Mikho knows how to pacify the twins.

"Ang mga bata?"
