" Ah yeah, the one at the party, kaibigan ka ni Mav diba ?." nakiupo siya sa amin at binaba ang tray ng pagkain niya, biglang nailang si Bea pero nginitian niya ito
" We're not friends ." natatawa niyang sabi at ngumiti ng seryoso " That's gross ." ngumiti ako ng unti
" Then what ?."
Pinaglaruan niya ang kutsara sa plato niya at kunwari nag-iisip " Hmm let say ." tumingin siya sa kawalan at napangisi at natatawang tumingin sa akin " Let's not talk about it ."
Sandali ako natigilan pero ngumiti din kaagad ako, I'm sure common friend lang, they knew each other probably because they see each other during gatherings, business world is huge but it's possible that you know a lot of people
She talked to us a lot of things " So sinasabi mong magpapakasal ka dahil nakipagkasundo magulang mo sa magulang ng lalake ganun?." tanong ni Bea sa kanya pero natawa si Keesha
" I agreed to it, well I love him, he will learn to love me someday anyway ." ngumiti si Keesha
" Ano namang dahilan para hindi ka niya mahalin pabalik? ." uminom ako ng tubig habang nakatingin sa kanya
" I don't know ." she shrugged and smirked " Maybe because of someone else ?." Bea gasped
" Aba may iba !?." napatingin siya sa akin dahil maski ako gulat
" Just kidding guys, actually there is no other woman, hindi lang talaga niya ko mahal ." ngumiti siya ng mapakla sa akin at tinapik tapik siya ni Bea sa balikat
" Bakit ka pumayag sa arranged marriage ?." I can't help but to ask her, it must be risky for her that time she agreed to it even though the guy don't love her
" That's business Ria, I know you know about this kind of arrangements, you belong to a rich family, you belong to the business world, minsan kailangan nating pumayag sa isang bagay dahil wala tayong magawa kundi sumunod, minsan pumapayag tayo dahil may kapalit, minsan pumapayag tayo dahil naibigay ang gusto natin, at isa ako sa mga taong pumayag dahil wala akong magawa kundi sumunod, but then I learned to love the person but the consequence is he can't love me back ."
" My family is different Keesha ." nginitian ko siya at nakatingin lang siya sa akin ng seryoso "They don't do arrangements, we have our own personal decisions in life, we don't want to force ourselves in a situation where we will think everyday that we choose the path that against our will ."
