Loving Chase

Marrying the perfect guy

I woke up by the sound of birds from inside the room. I sat up on the bed and saw two love birds on a cage lying on a table at the corner of the room. I didn’t realize it was there yesterday. I went near it and found a letter from June. It says. I hope you liked the birds Love, June. He’s so sweet. I opened the curtains and saw the view of the city from here. I also saw the Crowne Plaza Centre hotel Jin and I were staying. Is he there already?

            I went in the bathroom and saw a change of clothes hanging on the rack. Another letter is placed and it says, I saw this dress and I thought it would be nice on you. Please wear it, Love, June. He’s so thoughtful. I sat on the tub and placed bubble formula on it and turned off the curb as the tub is almost full with water. I took my clothes off and dipped myself on the water. It feels so nice and refreshing. The fragrance of the soap is very sweet to the nose too. I looked at the necklace hanging around my neck and made me think of Jin. I wonder what Jin is doing right now.

            As I finished taking a bath, I dried myself with a towel and after I finally dried myself up, I took the clothes that June gave me and wore it. It is a pink frilly dress and is paired with a white pair of boots. I went out of the bathroom and saw a comb on the vanity mirror and combed my hair. I also saw a white ribbon on the drawer so I used it as a head band. I fixed the bed and went out of the room and into the living room. As I arrived at the living room, I saw a lot of people bringing with them their tape measures and a bundle of portfolios with the designs of the wedding gown.

“Oh, Chase.” June saw me and walked to me. He gave me a morning kiss on the lips and- Wasn’t that my first kiss with June? But why am I not feeling anything? What is it that I am thinking? June kissed me but as he kissed me, all I could think of is Jin. He kissed my lips but all I could taste is the lingering sweetness of Jin’s mouth. Why do I wish that it is Jin I am kissing right now?

“The designs of the gown are ready,” June said showing me the designers looking at the collection and I just nodded.

“Take a look at it,” June said showing me one of the collections.

“It’s nice,” I responded turning the pages of the portfolio.

“Is there something wrong?” June asked me. He must have noticed my reaction. He really knows if I’m bothered of something or not.

“Nothing,” I responded in a smile looking at him.

“Sir, can we have her measures already?” one designer asked breaking our conversation.

“Sure,” June said with a smile. So the designers were around me and had measured me from head to toe. They also showed me a couple of designs on their collection and then I found a newspaper lying on top of the glass table. I looked at it and the news really does spread that quickly. It says that I and June are going to get married already.

Am I really ready to marry June? Yes, I should. I can never break June’s heart. I mean, I can’t bear to hurt his feelings when I choose- What’s going on with me? Jin didn’t even told me he like me. I’m not even sure if Jin really likes me or not so how would I know and how would I even choose? To be honest, I have already liked Jin back when we were in college but I thought he will never like me back since we are best friends and much worse is he’s always flirting with girls a lot so I thought I’m not really his type but after that kiss- What am I thinking? It was just a kiss. After all, it has always been my dream to meet a perfect guy in a perfect place and have the perfect love story and here it is now. It has already happened to me. I can’t change my mind now. Tomorrow is the day I will have my happily ever after.

            As the designers finished measuring my sizes and I had also finished choosing my gown so I decided to rest for a while and went to the terrace and found a bench so I sat on it and felt the wind touching my face. I heard footsteps walking closer and I saw June.
