Chapter30 - The Lock in their Hearts

God never break His promises.

Cha's POV

11:40 am

“Anong ginagawa natin dito?” tanong ko kay Cedric na nakatayo at nakatingin sa malayo. Nasa Tresia Tower kami ngayon. Isa sa mga sikat at pinupuntahan na tower dahil sa mataas at magandang view. Mahaba ang lakarin at napapalibutan ng tubig ang tower. There are hundreds of locks hanging in the tower fence. May mga couples din kaming nakakasalubong at nakikita na naglalagay ng pad lock. And It takes a while para makarating dito citing the fact na hindi pa rin nagsasalita si Cedric pamula kanina. -_-'

Galit ata siya sakin. Sumobra ba ang sinabi ko sa kanya? T_T

Makalipas ng ilang minuto ng pagtingin sa kulay asul na dagat ay nagsalita na si Cedric. “Dito kami unang nagdate at pansin kong gustong gusto niya dito.” turan nito at napangiti. However hindi ko alam ang tinutukoy niya but I chose not to ask and to remain silent.

“Her name is Mandy Estelli. She’s the daughter of Mr. Henry Estelli, the owner of ETS Shipping Company and other medium enterprises. To make it short, she is rich enough to be my wife.” He said with a sigh.

Hindi naman ako makapaniwala sa narinig. Wife? May asawa na ba siya? I thought he’s single. O_o

“Both of our parents arranged the marriage three years ago. I’m just surprised to wake up one day that I’m no longer free. I met Mandy the day I found out about it. She is.. well.. smart, modest and beautiful woman. She’s mature and way better than me. And she's the woman my parents would like. I don’t know her but she knows me very well. Hmm, it’s not hard enough to realize that she liked me.” 

‘liked’?

Nagsimula siyang lumakad habang tinitingnan ang mga nkasulat sa pad lock. At lumakad na din ako kasunod niya. Hinawakan ang mga pad locks at binasa ng mga mata ang mga nakasulat.

‘Mila and Mike forever’

‘You have my heart forever- Rox’

'ILY Shiela Castillo'

Ilan lang yan sa mga nakasulat. All of them are sweet messages that couples would normally write when they're in love. Hanggang sa tumigil si Cedric sa isang tabi. He touched one of the locks. Kulay berde ang pad lock at nung nilapitan ko para tingnan ang nakasulat.

‘The one I want to marry is Cedric Stephen. –Love Mandy’

O_O
Teka, tama ba ang basa ko?!Cedric Stephen!?Mandy??Tiningnan ko si Cedric na may mapaklang ngiti. “She wrote that. I still remember that day like it’s just yesterday. It’s our first time to be together and she asked me go here. I laughed at her when she bought this green pad lock, her favorite color. How foolish of her to ask me to go here and write something like that.”
