Micheel's POV
“Your hair and makeup is done. Put on the dress and shoes and you’re free to go” Wynn
I obeyed and cautiously made my way up to the dress. I took the dress and shoes and slipped into the bathroom where I saw myself for the first time in hours. I looked amazing, I admit it myself. Even at my wedding day I didn’t even look this good. My hair was in neat, shiny, soft curls and my makeup was gentle but had a sense of recklessness to it as well, contrasting my face beautifully. And I’m not one to brag. And after putting on the dress I felt even more confident that I could pull it off just as beautifully as how it was made. I slipped on the jimmy choo heels and wore all of the jewelry that was advised for this outfit. I took one last look in the mirror and was all set.
Nagpasalamat ako kay Wynn tapos bumaba ako upang hanapin si Eyann, nakita ko naman agad siya.
his back leaning against the wall. He was wearing a tuxedo, and his loafers were polished to a shine. His hair looked fresh, and looked very handsome. Never would I think that he was evil.
He looked up at me and smiled. And right then and there I thought I saw the Eyann that I thought that I had known once before. The nice, gentle, caring one that handed me his handkerchief when Jennifer humiliated me. He eyed me from head to toe and smiled in satisfaction.
“Let’s go” Eyann
By 8:45pm limos and taxi cabs were already piling outside Gomez hotel, people in extravagant dresses and ironed tuxedos gathered all around the lobby of the hotel. The dinner party was held at a buffet next to it, reserved specifically from 7 to midnight. Therefore, people were milling around the lobby, waiting for Eyann’s parents to give the signal and welcome them in. I was standing with Eyann, greeting everyone.
“Eyann, is this your date?” a woman asked.
He nodded.
“Yes, yes she is.”
“She has a similar appearance to Zane monroe’s new wife” she muttered as she past.
I was grateful when the bells chimed and everyone was free to go in. I took my seat next to Eyann at one of the dinner tables. I was eating happily, all of the cuisine was delicious. I was laughing with some of the other girls that were there, telling stories about themselves. I was having a good time. That is, until I heard a commotion outside the buffet doors.
“What the fuck you bastards, let me in!” may narinig kong nagsasalitang lalaki sa labas, kaboses ni Zane
Sheemay?!
Bat nandito si Zane?!!
“Excuse me” sabi ko kay Eyann " may titingnan lang ako, saglit"
"Okay" Eyann
I faked a smile and walked towards the doors. I opened them just a bit, so that I’m not hitting the security guard’s back who was standing in front of it. Nakita ko si Zane, na nakikipag talo sa mga guard, baket siya nandito? I can’t show him my weak side, and it would just be good if I pretended as if that thing with Jennifer never happened. I don’t fully believe the shit that Tiffany was telling me about how the plan was all Zane’s idea. But I needed to find out why he was here. To see me? Doubt it.
“Uhm...Excuse me” sabi ko sa mga guard, revealing myself to Zane. The guards were holding him back but he stopped struggling with them as soon as he saw me. He eyed me from head to toe, his mouth starting to drop open second by second.
“Let him go" I commanded, my eyes still on him. He was in a gray t shirt and jeans, as if he was in a rush to get here. Usually the only thing Zane ever cared about was his looks.
“And you are?”tanong ng isang guard
“Micheel Chin, Zane Monroe’s wife”
The guards dropped Zane
“S-So…YOU’RE the famous Zane Monroe, one of the top heirs of the world?” sabi nung isang guard
Zane nodded, clearly pleased that they were proven wrong.
“Yes, yes I am” Zane
"We're so sorry Sir" paghihingi ng paumanhin ng guard
“Huh” Zane scoffed as he wiped off some imaginary dust off of his shoulders
“You should be sorry” he muttered under his breath. He turned to look at me and all I did was stare at him back, not sure of what to say at the moment.
“Um…Pwede ba kitang makausap?” sabi ko
Zane nodded and we walked down to the corner, where we wouldn’t be heard.
“Ano ginagawa mo dito?” tanong ko
“Dapat ako nagtatanong nyan sayo eh" sabi ni Zane while crossing his arms.
“I’m here because Eyann asked me to be his date for the dinner party. eh ikaw bat ka nandito?”
“Oh fuck, bakit ka naman basta lang pumayag, ah?hindi ka pa ba natuto ? And yet you still trust him to take you to Vegas and dress you up like some baby doll, Micheel?” he took a step forward. The way he said my name scared me, but I didn’t want to lose this argument.
“Well guess what Micheel? He’s still a lying bastard. And you probably think so good of him because he dressed you up in glitter and gold. Newsflash. You look like shit. Ok? I don’t care if you actually might look like the most beautiful girl on earth. But because Eyann dressed you, you look like the ugliest bitch I know” Zane
I swallowed the lump in my throat, but soon it had burst and before I knew it I was crying. Again. But I had to speak, if I wanted to win.
“kaya ka ba pumunta dito para lang sabihin yan sa akin ? para sabihin kung gaano ako kapanget that I look ugly and am only a piece of shit? Kung ganun naman pala ako sa paningin mo, bakit mo pa ako hinalikan?”
Zane opened his mouth to speak but stopped himself, his expression suddenly changing.
“Micheel Im S----"
“Pwede ba Zane tumahimik kana, You’ve said enough, ok? Alam mo? tama nga si Tiffany. You were planning this yourself all along, huh? Hiring her and Eyann. Playing yourself as the good guy. Because you hate me so much, right? Well guess what? Game over Zane. You wanted me to go away right? gusto mong mawala ako sa buhay mo, diba?”
the tears fell down carelessly now. I didn’t care about how my makeup was smearing. I didn’t care about how I felt when he had kissed me that one time. I didn’t care where we were and how he’d feel if he saw me like this. All I cared about was how my heart felt. It was as if my heart was made out of glass and from Zane’s words it suddenly cracked and shattered to millions of pieces.
“Well…” I took a step back from him. “ kung gusto mo talagang matapos ang kasal natin, and fine mag hiwalay na tayo, tutal yun rin naman ang hiling mo" And with that, I turned around and started walking.
Ayoko siyang makita muli, I was officially done with him.
“Micheel, teka lang.. micheel please” narinig ko siyang tinatawag niya ako pero hindi ko siya nilingunan
“I-I made a mistake, ok? I was just mad and you were with Eyann and I got so mad, I…” Zane
But he trailed on after that, as I didn’t even bother to argue with him anymore.
I went to the restroom to wash my face, careful not to smear my makeup any more than it already was. Then I quickly went back to the party, making sure to put on my best composed expression.
“Is anything wrong?” tanong ni Eyann
"Uhm wala naman, okay lang ako” I turned back to the entrance, where Zane was probably long gone by now.
Umalis nga talaga siya <////3 :'(
