Chapter 4

Maaga pa lamang ay gising na si Xavier. Hindi siya makatulog nang maayos kagabi. Parang may pre-wedding jitters yata siya.

O mas tamang sabihing excited lang siyang makasal na sila ni Katrina at nang makapag-honeymoon na sila.

He was thinking about her the whole night. He even dreamed about her. They had a hot rendezvous and he woke up with a painful erection.

Shit! She really was the ONE.

He called his wedding coordinator and checked if everything was okay. Okay naman daw at walang problema.

He then called his wardrobe specialist to deliver a brand new pair of tuxedo for him that he can use later.

Pagkatapos nang isang oras ay dumating iyon sa bahay nila.

Dinala iyon sa silid niya ni Meding, ang mayordoma nila at ini-hanger sa isang tabi.

It seemed like everything was in order. But how about his bride?

She refused his offer yesterday to shop for her wardrobe and other things that she might need for their wedding.

He was hoping that she was doing well too.

Tinext niya ito. Checking if everything was okay. She replied with “See you later.” Tinext niya ito uli, sinabihang ipapasundo niya sa driver niya but she refused. She can manage to go to the venue daw on time.

Okay, he let her do her own thing. Basta ang importante ay makakarating ito mamaya para magpakasal sa kanya.

He already took care of the three million pesos cash that she was asking in return.

Nakalagay na ang pera sa attaché case at ibibigay niya rito pagkatapos ng kasal nila mamaya. And he already had his attorney draft the post nuptial agreement that she will have to sign.

Nang masigurong okay na ang lahat ay nagbihis na siya. Pagkatapos ay pinuntahan ang ina niya upang tingnan ang kalagayan nito.

His mother looked radiant in her expensive Filipiniana terno, ready to go to his wedding.

“You look beautiful, Mama!” Puri niya rito nang makita ito sa kanilang private den.

“Thank you, Xavier,” she smiled graciously at him. “You know what, you looked dashing today. Sana naman ay walang babaeng manggugulo sa kasal mo mamaya, at hindi papayag na matutuloy ang kasal ninyo ni Katrina.” Natawa ito sa naisip.

“Ikaw talaga, Mama,” napailing siya. “Yan ang napapala mo sa kakapanood ng mga baduy na teleserye.”

“Which is just a reflection of what real life is, ijo,” anito.

“Ready?” He diverted the topic. He knew his mother. Baka mamaya ay magkukuwento na naman ito tungkol sa latest update nang pinapanood nitong teleserye.

“Kanina pa ako naka-ready, Xavier. Excited na nga ako eh.”

Naka-postura na nga ang ina niya. Her hair sprayed in place, making her look like Amalia Fuentes. Hers was a classic beauty.

His mother was half Dutch, half Filipino. Mestisahin ito. Ash brown ang kulay ng buhok at gray ang mga mata. He got his gray eyes from her. Ang yumao naman niyang ama ay Filipino-Chinese na matagal nang nanirahan sa Pilipinas ang pamilya.

“Good!” He looked at his watch. Five minutes before two o’clock in the afternoon. “Let’s go then.”

“Okay!” She stood up.
