•Wedding - Part 1•

Elizabeth's POV

"Is everything okay?" I ask Henry after we entered his private office in this hotel. This was built specialized for him.

Umupo siya sa kaniyang swivel chair before he tap his lap motioning me to sit on it na ginawa ko naman. I encircle my arms around his neck.

"What's bothering you, hmm?" Malambing kong tanong sa kaniya. He kissed my cheeks pagkatapos niyang isinukbit ang nakawalang buhok sa likod ng aking tenga.

"This is getting out of hand for the children." He sigh.

"Nag-aalala ba itong mafia boss ko?" I tease him. Tumawa lang siya as he caress my back in circular motion.

"Yeah, but I won't let them touch neither any of you." He said before kissing me on the lips.

Third Person's POV

Today is Friday at excuse siya sa lahat ng kaniyang klase ngayon. The wedding is happening and everyone was instructed by the wedding coordinator to fall in line para sa pagpasok sa simbahan with their partners which everyone follows. Sa kasamaang palad, Ged was the one whom walk with her on the aile.

"Tss." Napaismid ito. She just rolled her eyes not daring to pay attention to him.

"Ma'am, kailangan niyo pong hawakan ang braso ni Sir para maayos pong tignan." Sabi ni ateng wedding coordinator. Pinagtitinginan sila ng iba kaya wala na itong magawa kung hindi gawin ang sinabi niya. Hindi na maipinta ang mukha ng dalawa.

"Entertaining kayong dalawa." Narinig nilang saad ni Dwayne sa likod nila. Hindi ito pinansin ni Zelene pero sinamaan siya ng tingin ni Ged.

"Just shut the fuck up." Her eyes widen at napatingin kay Ged na hindi man lang napagtanto ang sinabi niya.

"We're in the church!" Pasigaw niyang bulong sa binata. He just raised his brows and look at her with those 'who the f cares' look.

"So?"

"Ewan ko sa 'yo."

Every one started walking on the aile until it was their turn. Ang bilis niyang maglakad kaya palihim siyang siniko ng dalaga. Sinamaan naman siya nito ng tingin.

"Walk slower, idiot. I'm wearing heels!" She whispered at him. Mukhang na kuha naman siguro niya ang ibig nitong sabihin kaya binagalan niya ang lakad niya. She shut her eyes in frustration nang binagalan niya nga ang paglalakad pero literal na napakabagal talaga!

Bwiset!

"Nang-aasar ka ba?" Tinawanan niya lang ang dalaga na kulang nalang ay labasan ng usok sa ilong saka naglakad ng normal. Bwiset na lalaking 'to.

She sigh in relief nang maghiwalay na sila ng direksyon. She sat on her seat while waiting for the others until it was finally the bride's turn. Kaagad siyang napatayo at hinintay na bumukas ang pintuan ng simbahan. Her hands are sweaty and she felt nervousness took over her whole body. Is she actually ready for this? Matagal na niya itong tinanggap ang pangyayaring 'to ngunit hindi niya pa din maiwasang kabahan.

The huge door of the church slowly opens. Everyones attention was now on the bride that was slowly revealing herself.

The woman who had raised her is so gorgeous right now. Malaki ang ngiti ang nakapaskil sa kaniyang labi habang pinipigilan ang kaniyang pagluha.

Tumalikod siya sa kanilang gawi at humarap nalang sa altar. She feels like crying but no tears wanted to come out from her eyes. She's numb already.

She is filled with a range of emotions as she observes the ceremony and the interactions between her mother and her new husband.
