"Anong oras daw ang kasal, guys?" Tanong ni Snow na nakahilata na sa couch. Kaniya-kaniya kaming hilata. Pagod sa gala namin. Imbis na parke ang puntahan ay mall.
Ladies are really every mens formidable enemies. We're pretty beaten up dahil sa mga pinamili nila! Putcha, naging kargador kami!
"UWAAAAAHHHH!!! YADA! YADA! YADA!!!!!!" Napa-ngiwi agad kami dahil sa nakakabinging iyak ni Tyrant. We're relieved that he's back to normal now. And his wounds are healing up fast. Nakakagulat but what to expect to the second Dragon's Seal? Well, hindi naman namin masasabing lahat ng kakayahan ng ina niya ay nakuha niya. Hindi pa namin masasabi sa ngayon since he's still a baby.
"You can ride it tomorrow, Eclipse. Come on, let it go." Sir Devon. But his grandchild is stubborn. Ayaw magpakuha sa ama niya. Pfft. Kapit na kapit sa manibela ng kotse.
"Baby Kaitlin, kapag malaki ka na, pa-spoil ka rin kay Ninong Volt, ha? Yayamanin 'yan. Sure akong marami kang pera sa susunod na pasko. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Sabi ng demonyong si Paris na ginawa lang kaming Ninong at Ninang para perahan. Demonyo.
"Hmmm!" Sagot naman ni Kaitlin. Natampal ko na lamang ang noo ko. Mapapagaya pa ata siya sa ama niyang mukhang pera. *sigh*
"Eclipse, I said let it go. Stop being stubborn. You still have many days to play with it. Let it go or I'll throw that away." Ani Sir Devon na sobrang strikto. Maging kami ay nag-behave. Walang nasabi.
"Sweetheart, don't be so strict to our baby grandson :3" paglalambing sa kaniya ni Mistress Elexea na naka-pout.
"We need to, Sweetheart. You know Eclipse, he's not just a baby anymore. He can clearly understand us all. I'm against Dearil when she said we must spoil him. His mother's stubborn too. He needs to act the way a man should." W-Woah...
"Haist. Ikaw bahala." Woah! Nag-i-improve na ang tagalog ni Mistress Elexea, ha! Holy shit. Ang sexy ng accent niya.
*sniff, sniff*
Naawa naman kami kay Baby Tyrant na tuluyan nang binitawan ang manibela ng kotse. Umupo silang mag-ama malapit sa parents nila, "Alright, don't sulk. Listen to Granddaddy and be a man. A man who can't obey their father and grandfather is not a man. Remember that."
*Mind-blown*
"W-Wow, son. Coming from you na rebelde?" Manghang sabi ni Sir LIFE na hinagalpakan namin ng tawa. BURN!
"Whatever, Dad. Iba ako sa anak ko. Duh?" Pfft! Savage, Sir LIFE. Napakalupit niyo ni Mistress Sera! Coolest parents EVER! SANA OL!
"Awww, that means Baby Flyme is still a baby since he loves disobeying his daddy. Aww, what a baby. We have three babies here. Baby Flyme is still a baby~ ^O^" mapang-asar na sabi ni Mistress Sera kaya utas kami sa kakatawa.
"S-Stop it, Mom! Tss. Baby my ass."
"He's a soft toothin' baby! Wooosh!" Pang-aasar namin at nagtawanan. Narinig namin ang pagbukas ng pinto. Natigilan kami nang may pumasok na puting aso. Kasunod ay si Dearil na may dalang cage.
"Wow! Ang ganda namang aso nito---" Hold up.
Tinitigan namin ng mabuti ang hayop na kasing puti ng niyebe na nakahiga ngayon sa sahig. I-It's not a dog but a big cat. A BIG FUCKING CAT.
"A FUCKING WHITE LION! KYAAAAAAHHHH!!!" Tilian namin at tumakbo palayo sa puting pusa na 'yon. Holy shit!? She purchased a fucking white lion!? HOW!? WHERE!? WASN'T IT ILLEGAL!?
"I bought it legally. I have permits from the trashy government." Ani Dearil at ipinakita ang mga papel na hawak niya. Holy shit. Aatakihin ata ako sa puso.
"Honey! Why did you brought a lion home!? Do you know how dangerous he is!?" Hinahapong sabi ni Mistress Elexea na hihimatayin ata dahil sa kalokohan ng anak.
"They are my pet. And they won't attack any of you unless I ordered them. I tamed them perfectly. Right, King?"
*lion rawr*
YIIIII!!! NAKAKATAKOT! >_____________<
"I-I-Is that a...snake?" Namumutlang sabi ni Fierce habang nakaturo sa hayop na naka-silip sa hawla at pinapanood kami.
"AHAS NGA! KYAAAAAAAHHHH!!! AHAS! I HATE SNAKEU! KYAAAAAAHHHH!!!" Tili ulit namin at nagtago sa likod ni Volt na sobrang kalma pa din. Grabe! Wala talaga siyang kinatatakutan!
"I fear snakes and lions, actually. But I trust her words that they won't hurt us. Don't be stupid, everyone. Go back to your seats and calm down. You scared? Well, you don't trust her enough then." Nagtinginan kami sa kaniya dahil sa sinabi niya. H-Hindi naman sa ganon. May tiwala naman kami sa kaniya...
"Impressive, Xirquit. Alright, King and Venom, go to him and let him give you pets. Go." Naka-ngising sabi ni Dearil at pinakawalan 'yung ahas. Fuck! It's a Black Mamba! Holy---VOLT! WE WILL MISS YOU! T^T
"Are you fucking kidding me!?" Agad na namutla si Volt nang unti-unti nang lumalapit ang ahas at leon sa kaniya. Nagyakapan kami ni Paris sa sobrang takot. Nangangatog na ang mga tuhod namin. Parang mamamatay na kami sa sobrang bilis ng tibok ng puso namin!
"Go, pet them. You trusts me, right? Do it." Panghahamon ni Dearil kay Volt na nabato na ata sa kinauupyan. Sinundot ko siya.
HE'S SO STIFF! HUMIHINGA PA BA SIYA!?
"Don't fear them. Just what I have said, I tamed them perfectly. And also, there's a cover in Venom's mouth. His venoms won't reach you and harm you." She assured and oo nga. May takip 'yung bunganga 'nung ahas. Bakal iyon at may maliliit na butas para makahinga siya. Medyo napanatag kami---
Biglang dinamba ni Baby Tyrant ng yakap 'yung puting leon.
"DA---BU! ^O^"
FUUUUUCCCCCKKKKK!!!!! O ___________O!!!
"BABY TYRAAAAAANTTTTT!!!" Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Ayan na! Lalapain na siya ng leon! Shit! Kakainin na siya ng leon----
*rubs mane to Baby Tyrant*
Eh? (? _________ ?)
"Told you. They won't harm you unless I said so." She bragged proudly na nagpa-tanga sa amin. That is the time Volt started petting King's head. Pumulupot sa braso niya ang ahas. Nanigas pa siya dahil doon but he managed to stay calm. Nagtitigan sila 'nung ahas. T-Tangina. Tangina talaga.
Mukhang nagkaka-inlaban na 'yung dalawa!
Lumapit 'yung ahas kay Baby Tyrant. At ang hype na bata, tuwang-tuwang hinawakan 'yung ahas!
Biglang umikot ang paningin ko. Hindi ko kinakaya.
Hanggang sa tuluyang nandilim ang paningin ko.
"MAX! HE FAINTED!"

"Darling, are you okay?" Nabalik ako sa realidad at napa-ingin kay Alessandra na nasa harapan ko. Umayos ako ng upo.
"What's bothering you? Why aren't you still sleeping? You should rest now for tomorrow." She said with a smile, wine glass in her right hand.
"Uhhhm, I can't sleep, M-Mom. I feel...I am feeling excitement." I lied. She chuckled.
She tapped my shoulder. I looked at her hand, "It's normal. But seriously, just breathe and calm down. Everything's gonna be perfect." Tumango na lamang ako at ngumiti. I excused myself at pumunta na sa kwarto namin. I shut the door. I looked at my wedding gown.
Lumapit ako doon. I gently touched it. Soft and silky fabric. Hindi ko pa ito nasusukat but I know it fits to me perfectly. Hindi naman talaga ako kinakabahan whenever I think about the wedding tomorrow. What makes me nervous is that, the visitors. Van and his squad. It makes me uncomfortable and... I can't understand. Naguguluhan ako sa mga nararamdaman ko.
Nagulat ako nang yumakap sa akin si Liore mula sa likod. Kakalabas lang ng banyo. He smells really good.
"Why are you still awake, Angel? Can't sleep?" I nodded.
"I was just worrying since we have troublesome visitors." Lumuwag ang yakap niya sa akin. Inikot niya ako paharap sa kaniya.
"Don't be. We have our mens. And I know they will respect us since it's our wedding. Cheer up, okay? Don't worry about things. I'l handle it. Just sleep and rest. You need to." Mahinahon at malambing niyang sabi at hinalikan ako sa noo. Hindi na lamang ako umimik. Tumango na lamang ako at maliit na ngumiti at pumunta na sa kama. I bid my goodnights to our twins na mahimbing na ang tulog. Tapos mamayang madaling araw mga hyper na naman. *sigh*
I closed my eyes. Alright, Aloisia. Stop worrying about nonsense things. Clear your mind. Clear your thoughts. Calm down. Be calm. Everything will be perfect.
Perfect...

"Good morning, Miss Xerene. Are you done taking a bath?" Binuksan ko na ang pinto ng banyo at nginitian ang tatlong stylist. They smiled back at iginiya ako sa vanity table. Nakahanda na ang lahat. And I'm nervous as hell right now.
Devil's on the other room. At mauuna rin siyang aalis. May nag-aasikaso na rin sa kambal. May mga assassins naman silang babysitter na mag-aalaga sa kanila pansamantala.
Nakatingin lang ako sa repleksyon ko habang inaayusan nila ako. Yes, I am nervous. Sobra ang kabang nararamdaaman ko ngayon. Ngunit hindi para sa kasal na magaganap. Kundi sa muling pagkikita namin ni Van. There was part of me who's against the wedding of me and Liore. Hindi ko maintindihan ang pakiramdam na nararamdaman ko. Gusto kong umayaw na hindi. Gusto kong iurong ang kasal na 'to. Pero...
"Miss, time to wear your gown now." Napakurap ako. M-Maayos na pala ang lahat. Tumayo ako at tumitug sa gown na nasa harap ko. Bigla akong natulala.
Do I really want to marry Liore?
Why am I...hesitating to wear it?
Why do I feel regretful all of a sudden?
What's happening to me?
"Miss?"
Do I really want to marry him?
"Miss Xerene?"
"Y-Y-Yes?"
"The gown..." I gulped. Whatever it is, I need to wear it. Maybe I was just being delusional. This wedding is grand. And every Phantoms are invited to this wedding. Though it's private, but once na isapubliko ito ay talagang ito na ang kasal na kaiinggitan ng lahat. We spend almost half a hundred million for this wedding. Just for this modern-vintage wedding.
At last, they put my veil on me. I looked at my whole. And I can't believe how beautiful I am. I smiled. Why am I feeling sulky? I should be happy. This is my wedding. One of the best day in my life. I need to think positive! After all, I will be Mrs. Gerson Liorei soon. And we will be the strongest duo ever in the Underground history.
Lumabas na kami ng kwarto. Inalalayan nila ako. Outside stood France, my maid of honor and Sharina, the bride's maid. I smiled at the both of them and they returned it back to me.
"You're so gorgeous as ever, Bestie." Sharina complimented. I chuckled. They were my bestfriends. We are known as the 'Trinity'. One of the most feared and formidable group of assassins. Marami na rin kaming pinagsamahan. Especially France. We've been working together for years. And I trusts her so much.
"Let's go?"
"Let's go." Naka-ngiting sabi ko nagsimula nang maglakad kasama sila.
This is it. Wala nang atrasan 'to.

"Van, are you going to be okay?" Nag-aalalang tanong ni Dad. Pang-siyam na niyang tanong 'yon. At naiirita na ako.
"I will be fine, Dad. Stop worrying." Inis na ismid ko at tinali na ang tie ko. Humarap ako sa salamin.
"Hindi ba sasama ang asawa mo?"
"I don't know. Ayaw niyang magpa-istorbo. She's sleeping. Magdamag niyang kinausap ang mga hayop niya." Ginulo ko ang buhok ko sa sobrang inis. Bigla niya akong hinampas sa likod.
"Your Mom just fixed your hair! Redo it!"
"Nah. Too lazy to do it again." Bagot na sabi ko at isinuot na ang coat ko. He sighed and massaged his temples.
"I don't know what did I do to deserve a son like you." WHY DOES HE SOUND SO FUCKING REGRETFUL!?
"Is it my fault that your condom broke, Dad!?" Bakit parang kasalanan ko pang nabuo ako? Tsk!
"How did you know that my condom broke?" Natigilan ako. Nagtinginan kaming dalawa. Gulat na gulat.
"I HEARD CONDOM! HONEY, WHAT'S WRONG!?" F-Fuck! It's Mom!
She kicked the door open at naka-pamewang na lumapit sa amin. Her smile is so freaking wide, but it faded when she looked at my hair. Shit. I'm fucked up.
"I guess, I need to go." W-Wait a minute! He'll leave me alone with this---MONSTER!?
"LUCRESE IZAAC FLYME ELYXIR DRAGUNOVV III!!!!"
"DAAAAAAADDDDD!!!!" You old man---! I hate you to the core!

"Dad, do we really need to attend that ceremony? I'm too lazy to walk." I said listlessly as I stare to nothingness. I'm on my tuxedo already. Gayak na gayak na. Everything is done and ready yet my spirit is asleep.
"You need wheel chair?" I looked at him boredly.
"Gusto mo ihampas ko sayo 'yon?" Asar na sabi ko at niyakap ang stuff toy ko.
"Gusto mo ikaw ang ihampas ko?" He hissed. Inirapan ko lang siya. The door opened.
"Baby! I'm done!" It was Denise.
Energy: 100%
Spirit: Awake

Wala sa oras akong tumayo at lumapit sa kaniya, "Dad, huwag ka ngang mabagal. Baby, let's go." Sabi ko at hinawakan siya sa bewang. I looked at Dad, amused and jaw dropped. I just smirked at him and left their room.
"Yuya! Yuya! Ate!" Napa-tingin kami sa kambal na magkahawak-kamay. My siblings are so adorable.
"Wow, Yamnie! You look so pretty! And Yuan, you're manly ;)" She complimented and patted their heads. I frowned. Where's my compliment?
Mukha namang napansin niya ang pagsimangot ko at natawa, "You're handsome and manly too, Baby." I smirked and gave her a kiss.
"You too, Baby. Gorgeous."
"Hay nako, ang landi naman ng mga nakaharang sa daan. TABI NGA!" Mwestra ni Minerva at pinaghiwalay pa kami ni Denise para lang dumaan sa gitna namin. Natatawa siyang inakbayan ni Max.
"Sure akong maraming chix sa party. Tara hunting?"
"GG!"
Flirts (= , =).
Nagtipon-tipon na kami sa labas. Everyone is looking handsome and beautiful in their gowns and tuxedos. Ayos na ayos at mukhang mga desente. Tss. Tito LIFE and his wife, together with Tita Ayuri and Tito Devon are wearing masks. I don't know why. Maybe thry have some plans or they don't want to be exposed to them publicly, right?
"Where's Van?"
"Baka umiiyak pa." I said and snorted. They chuckled. We waited for minutes, until he came with his son. Looking adorably cute in his baby suit.
"Done crying?" I teased. He hissed.
"I didn't." Really?
"Dada, Mommy boom-boom!" Oh? They fought?
"Hindi ba talaga siya sasama?" Well, maybe it's better if she won't come. They might be mistaken her as the bride. Baka magwala pa si Van doon. Nakuha na nga ang Luna niya, pati Azazel niya ay mawawala din. Xoxad, Van.
"She won't. They are sleeping. With her bitches." Pets, he mean? God, she's really scary.
"Alright, time to go already. Fifteen minutes before 12:00." Frozt. Nagtanguhan na kami at pumasok sa limo.
"Let's roll."
The face offs makes me excited. Bitch, please?
