Janella De Leon

7: Beautiful

Jane's POV

It was the next day.

I woke up to a knock on my door.

I groaned, who would wake me up this early?!

"Come in" I said as sat up and I fixed my hair.
"Jane" My dad said and walked in.

"Dad? Anong meron" I asked.
"You need to get ready now, your going to a store just for wedding dresses" He said and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"You and Janella should get to decide the dresses you wear is what her dad and I agreed on" He explained.

"What?! Why? I would have been fine with any dress dad, you know that" I asked.

"It doesnt matter either way, your gonna have to get up and go, the store is opening early just for you two..and I bet Janella is already on her way" He said.

I groaned, "Oo na fine, I'll get ready" I said and got out of bed.

"Thank you anak" He said.
"Aalis na ko ha, im quite busy today" He said and I nodded.

Busy as usual.

He got out of my room and I got ready quick.

Janella's POV

I arrived at the place where I was supposed to figure out what dress I was gonna wear to the wedding.

I parked my car and got out, entering the place and looking around.

It was a beautiful place, no lie.

The dresses were extreme here, getting married did not look like a joke.

I sighed and crossed my arms, I had to wait for Jane.

"Welcome po Ma'm Janella" The owner of the store came up to me.

"Thank you for having us, well I mean, until Jane gets here" I said and shook her hand.

"Its an honour" She replied as we shook hands.

The door of the store opened and finally Jane arrived.

"Ma'm Jane! Welcome din po" The owner went up to her, shaking hands.

"Ahh salamat, sorry nalate ako" Jane said.
"Wala lang yun po, its an honour having you both here" The owner said.

"All of the wedding dresses have been prepared for you guys to try, its by the fitting rooms and if you need assistance my employees will be here" The owner explained.

"Alright then, lets get started" I said and looked at Jane.

Oh right, we should act all lovey dovey.

"I havent seen you all night love" I said as I hugged her. "I missed you" I added and forced a smile to see the owner watching us.

"I missed you too love, just wait until were married and we wont have to be apart each other which we hate" Jane said after breaking the hug and forcing a smile.

"Yup! I cant wait" I said and we stared at each other knowing deep down the hatred we had for each other.

As soon as the owner left us two alone in the dressing room we could finally breath.

God I love acting but not like this.

"Lets get this over with" I sighed and looked through the wedding dresses.

I noticed Jane wasnt doing the same but using her phone. I just ignored it and continued to choose which dress to try on first.

Once I finally chose I dress I still saw Jane using her phone. "Jane!" I said and she looked at me all confused.

"Arent you going to pick a dress?!" I asked.
"I already have" She replied.

"Oh really? Show me" I said and she looked at the dresses and chose a random one.

"You cant just choose any, it has to be special" I muttered. "At bakit? I mean hindi naman real wedding to" She said and I scoffed.

"Yes its just a contract Jane pero take this seriously" I said.

"Oo na fine. If it means you'll leave me alone" She mumbled and started looking through the dresses.

"I'll try this on first then" She added and went into the fitting room.

I waited for her to come out.

10 minutes later she was still inside the room.

"Jane are you done yet?!" I asked.
"I cant get the back zipper on" She replied.

I groaned, am I really going to do this?

"I'll help you" I mumbled.
She came out of the fitting room wearing the dress.

She then turned her back on me and held onto her hair as I was going to zipper it up.

"Thank you" She said and turned back around to face me, "So what do you think of this dress?" She asked.

Beautiful, the dress looks beautiful, even more beautiful when shes wearing it.

"Its alright but why dont you try on some more? You should pick a dress that you like Jane" I suggested.

"Okay then" She said.

"But before that I want to see you try on a dress" She said. "Oh come on really?" I asked. "Hey you made me wear this" She complained.

"Fine but I'll do it because I want to" I said and took the dress I chose earlier. I went into the fitting room and put it on.

But just like Jane, I couldnt get the back zipper on.
"Jane, you better help me out with the back zipper" I said as I came out of the fitting room.

"Sige" She said.
I turned my back to her and held onto my hair so it wouldnt get in the way.

"There you go" She said.
I turned around to face her.

"Are you happy now that Ive tried on a dress?" I asked with a straight face on.

She smiled, "Very" She chuckled.
"Why are you laughing?" I asked.

"Im not laughing, you just look pretty" She said.

You look pretty too Jane

"I-..thanks" I said and she smiled.
"We dont have to be enemies you know" She said.
"We could just make up and be friends" She added.

"What makes you think that I'll agree?" I asked and crossed my arms.

"Because I like you" She smiled cheekily.

"I like you"

No it had to be a joke.

"Dont joke with me Jane" I mumbled.
"And who said I was joking?" She asked as she walked closer up toward me.
