"Athena Santos?
Tanong ng baritonong boses sa likuran ni athena.
"Yeah"
Maiksing sagot nito ng makita ang mukha ng lalake.
Ang lalakeng gumugulo sa isipan nya isang linggo na ang nakakalipas.
"I am Dave Guevara,and nandito ako para talakayin ang magaganap na kasal"
"Same here,so tell me,paano ba ang gagawin ko?
"Very simple,we don't need to make a party,walang bisita,ang tanging tao lang na nandun ay si justin my lawyer friend and grace"
"You mean like were not even gonna wear proper clothes for wedding?
"I know that every girl's dream is to wera white dress,but im sorry hindi natin yun gagawin"
"Ok! I understand"
"So si justin ang mag kakasal satin,sya na ang bahala sa lahat,we just need to hire one person from media to take picture of our marriage and us,to show to the public"
"Iba na talaga ang sikat noh"
Hindi napigilang sabi nito.
"I'm sorry for dragging you into this situation"
"I am at fault too,so let's just help each other"
Nag uusap pa sila ng biglang bumukas ang pintuan at niluwa nito ang isa pang gwaping lalake.
"Hey people"
Bati ng lalake.
"Hey man,so this is athena santos"
Pakilala ni dave.
"Oh pleasure to meet you,my future sister in law?
"Sister in law? Hindi naman tayo mag kapatid"
Angal naman ni Dave.
"Hi nice to meet you too"
"So what do we have here?
Tanong ni justin sa dalawa.
"We are talking about the marriage"
"Alright,so tell me the plan"
"Walang ibang tao na pupunta maliban sayo,at kay grace at isang taga media"
"Ok man,as you wish"
"So athena,i decided that after the wedsing dun ka na sa bahay ko umuwi,alam mo na baka malaman nila hiealay tayo ng tirahan"
"Ok, no problem,pero may mga kondisyon lang ako"
"Wow here we go man"
Sabad ni justin
"Sure go ahead"
"Since hindi naman talaga tayo nag mamahalan,bawal maki alam sa bawat isa,you do your own things at ganun din ako"
"Owww this is getting cool"
Sabad ulit ni justin.
"And add to that,we can hang out with the people we want"
"Alring,basta ayaw ko mag dadala ng friends or kahit na sino sa bahay ko"
Sabi naman ni dave.
"Ok,then its a deal?
"Yeah it is"
"So you guys i have the papers done by tomorrow,would you want to do it tomorrow?
"The earlier the better"
Sabi ni dave.
"O sige na mauna na ako sa inyong dalawa,lalakarin ko muna yung mga papeles and need to talk to someone about the media"
"Thanks man,maasahan ka talaga"
"No problem,basta sa unang baby nyo ninong ako"
Mapang asar na sabi nito.
"Get the hell out"
Sigaw ni dave dito.
Makalipas ang ilang minuto tahimik ang dalawa.
"So athena tell me something about you,kelangan kong malaman para pag may magtanong i know what to tell"
"I live alone,at wala na akong parents,wala akong kamag anak,there's nothing much to know about me anyways,im a loner in short"
"And you know who i am right"
"I just found out yesterday"
"I want us to be careful with every move that we do,ayaw kong makaladkad ang pangalan ko,as you know soon you will become misis guevara"
Ang tamis sa tenga na mapakinggan ang misis guevara,sa isip ni athena.
"Dont worry im not a trouble maker"
"Good,so i think thats it for today,i will give you a call tomorow,kung san tayo pipirma ng marriage certificate,and i want you to go home and start packing your things"
"Sige,oh pano mauuna na din ako sayo"
Dave answer with the smile.
She can't imagine that in one instant makakasal na sya sa lalakeng hindi nya kilala,sana tama lang ang desisyon nyang iyon,tutal pwede naman silang mag divorce later on,basta sa ngayon gusto nya ang nangyayari,kaya uuwi na sya para makapag pahinga,ng maganda sya sa kanyang kasal kinabukasan.
