SECRETLY MARRIED TO A FAMOUS CELEBRITY

Chapter XXIII

Arian POV

Hindi nagtagal ang paghintay namin dahil nakarating agad si Nicholas, kasabay nya pa sa pagpasok si Megan.

Our eyes immediately met. I saw how he resist to not smile after the sudden eye contact. He's talking to the director with Megan.

I'm just sitting ng magisa sa isang couch dahil may gagawin daw si Josh. Some staff are looking at me, they maybe wondering kung anong ginagawa ko here. I'm just sitting comfortably pero gusto kong isigaw sa kanila na asawa ko kaya si Nicholas!

The artists are already preparing, maraming nakapalibot sakanilang dalawa na mga staff. Nakaupo lang ako pero ang mata ko ay nasa pwesto nila, i wonder if ano ang pinaguusapan nila dahil i can hear Megan's laugh.

"Whatever..."i whisper and rolled my eyes.

"Arian?"

Nilingon ko ang tumawag sakin at nakatayo lang sa harap ko. "Luan?"

Anong...

"Can i sit?"he asked at tinuro ang couch.

As if naman may choice ako.

"Yes, you can"nilingon ko ang pwesto ni Nicholas pero natatakpan sya. "Why are you here?"i asked him.

He laughed. "Bawal ba?"

"Nagtatanong lang"

Tumango sya. "I came here for my cousin".

"Cousin?"'sino naman?.'

"Yes. What about you? What are you doing here?"he also asked.

Kinabahan ako. "Uhm.."

"Your boyfriend is here?"nilibot nya ang tingin nya.

"NO"napalakas ang pagkakasabi ko dahil nagsitinginan sakin ang nga nakarinig.

I cleared my throat. "I mean.. someone i know is here"palusot ko.

Halatang hindi sya naniniwala pero tumango parin. We became silent.

"Who's your cousin?"i asked him dahil ang awkward.

"Guess..."

Ayoko sana kaso nakakailang naman kung hindi ako makikisama.

"Staff ba?"

Umiling sya.

"Maybe the director..."i trailed off.

He chuckled bago sumagot."Megan..."

"Pinsan mo?!"tinanong ko pa.

"Yes. Mother side"

"Gosh..."bulong ko sa sarili ko.

Buti nalang ay wala akong nasabi na kung ano tungkol kay Megan kapag kasama ko sya.

"Luan So Andrada"he elaborate his full name.

"Ah.. i see"

"Is Villamor your surname?"he asked na para bang hindi nya alam.

"Yes"tugon ko.

Nakatingin lang sya sakin na parang naghihintay pa ng sunod kong sasabihin. "What?"

He shrugged kaya umiwas na ako ng tingin.

"What about Escano?"bigla nya nalang na tanong.Hindi ko sya nililingon.

'What the hell is happening?! Lord bat naman ngayon.'

"What about Escano?"inulit ko ang tanong nya.

"I thought you're his cousin too"he joked.

I rolled my eyes.

"That's funny..."i sarcastically answer.

"It's boring here... Want to come with me?"
