"Thalia I am nervous."
mabini akong ngumiti kay Jill at inayos ang laylayan ng kaniyang gown.
kasalukuyan kaming nasa Botique kung saan isinusukat na niya ang kaniyang wedding gown bago ang araw ng kasal.
her groom is behind the curtain waiting for her.
She is marrying a business tycoon based in argentina but a half filipino. The groom's family is here in the philippines kaya napag desisyunan nila na dito gawin ang kasal.
we are already done with the whole preparations, in fact ipinaubaya sa akin ni Jill ang majority sa details ng kaniyang kasal dahil kinailangan niyang bumalik sa Greece dahil sa mga traditional ceremonies nila bago ikasal ang isang babae.
I dreamed of having a beach or island wedding and she knows it, so she gave me the full go signal to make the preparations perfect base from my own idea of a beach wedding. and we are down to 3 days before her big day
"Do i look okay?"
"you look perfect Jill, I am sure Sir Ivanie will want to marry you over and over again. You are so gorgeous in this Maxine Abulenca's laced wedding gown"
"I know! I am so happy I listened to you, this is so perfect."
Maxine is also Maddie Montereal, the owner of bittersweet bliss cafe na hilig namin na tambayan ni Thalia at Ulna. Her story is also exquisite , on how from being a bullied ugly duckling into gorgeous international fashion designer, she was featured to many magazines and shows. I just love her.
"you ready gorg? the curtain is ready to grace you" speaking of her
sumilip si Maddie at pumasok sa dressing room.
"wow, you surpassed my imaginations, you really look perfect!"
binusisi niya ang lace structure at inayos ang laylayan ng gown.
hindi nagtagal ay nasa labas narin ako kasama si Sir Ivanie at inaantay na bumukas ang kurtina.
"I am quite nervous. kinakabahan ako."
his slang tagalog made me smile
"You got a perfect bride sir."
"I know"
doon bumukas ang kurtina at tumambad si Jill na nakatayo sa mini stage ng shop, looking like a goddess.
tinanguhan ko si Nick, ang official photographer namin sa kompanya at nag umpisa siyang kuhanan ng litrato ang kaganapan.
sir Ivanie went to her and hug his bride.
I suddenly felt pain in my chest.
I was once a bride, but I never felt happy the same way Jill right now.
because then, I was just the substitute bride.
Pinunas ko ang luha na naglandas sa aking pisngi at namalayan na tumutunog pala ang aking telepono
I almost screamed when I saw the name on my screen
"Hello!? oh my God Emmanuel! bakit ngayon ka lang nagparamdam?"
hindi ko mapigilan mainis, after the incidents hindi na siya gaanong nakakausap at nakaka bisita man lamang
tawa ang kaniyang isinagot
"I was busy with something,the legion is handy these days, lalo na ngayon na wala na si..." natigilan siya at tumikhim.
"how are you?" maya ay wika niya
