CHAPTER 10

No gowns, no makeup, no bride, no groom, no priest, not even a marriage ceremony kahit manlang yung nag-iisang, "you may now kiss the bride," lahat ng inaasahan nito ay isa isang naglaho.

She was expecting Dhom to make her dream wedding come true, pero lahat ng kabaliktaran ng pangarap nito ay nanatiling isang pangarap.

Pagkatapos pumirma ni Dhom, writing his name Dhominic Demetrius MacCoughlan and his signature on top of his name.

Seconds passed the lady didn't write anything on the marriage contract, she was just staring at it. Then she snap back to reality when mr. Alvarez called her attention.

"Lady..."

"Oh...right...pipirma na." Sabi ng babae sa matandang lalaki.

But before that....

"What's your name...my soon to be wife?" He asked in his deep husky voice. Imagine the tone.

"Billie Malachi,"she answered before signing the contract.

Then the marriage ends in less than a minute.

Billie she's pissed off just by looking at her HUSBAND'S trump face, parang gusto niya itong sigawan. This is not what she was expecting.

Mayaman si Dhom, he had all the wealth he could ask for pero mabigyan lang ng kasal si Billie sa simbahan ay hindi niya kayang gawin.

Matapos pumirma si Billie ay agad itong napatayo at hinagis sa pagmumukha ni Dhom ang ballpen na hawak nito.

That's it, she wants a divorce!

"I want a divorce!!! Ayoko nito!" She scream at Dhom's face making him panic.

"Divorce what!" He said in disbelief. Imagine, they just got married then in less than in a minute she wants a divorce. In case she didn't know wala pang divorce sa Pilipinas, bill palang dahil pinag-uusapan pa nila ito sa senado. They didn't approve the bill yet.

Dhom went after her wife who wants divorce ASAP!

Lalapitan sana siya Dhom nang mabilis na lumayo si Billie at tinakpan ang ilong nito na parang naduduwal.

"Ang baho mo!!!"

Dhom frowned his brows, he just took a bath. Inamoy niya ang sarili nito.

He doesn't smell bad,he just smell just fine. Yung amoy ng bagong ligo.

"We just got married then you want a divorce. Do you think this is some kind of a game. BILLIE!"

"Sinigawan mo na ko ngayon!"

"Yes, because baby I don't understand. All of a sudden you want a divorce. Tell did I do something wrong again. Tell me then I'll correct right away!"

"Ah..talaga...you will correct it...sabi mo eh! Sige gusto kong maikasal sa SIMBAHAN! GUSTO KONG DOON MAIKASAL HINDI DITO SA SALA NG MANSYON MO! GUSTO KONG MAIKASAL SA SIMBAHAN DAHIL GUSTO KONG MARANASAN KAHIT ISANG BESES LANG SA BUHAY KO NA NAPAKA-ESPESYAL KO. DAHIL ANG KASAL IMPORTANTE YUN SA ISANG BABAE. DAHIL YUN ANG PINAKA-IMPORTANTE KAGANAPAN SA BUHAY NAMIN!"

Dhom couldn't answer back, he was dumb founded to Billie's words. He couldn't bring his self to reason out.

"I.... I'm....sorry.... I didn't knew....if only I knew that marriage is that important and special to you....ay sana pinaghanda kita ng kasal na katulad sa pinapangarap mo...." his tone was almost as a whisper, he couldn't look at his wife gaze while telling her those words.

"I promise when the right time.... I'll marry you in front of God. But before that---!" Billie cut Dhom's word.

"Ok na toh.... memorable naman din toh.... atleast I had a hot hunk Husband."

Agad na napaangat ang ulo ni Dhom mula sa pagkakayuko, their he met his wife's eyes.

"You mean...gwapo ako....that you find me attractive..is that what you want to say!" He ask with joy written all over his face.

"Isa akong malaking sinungaling kung sasabihin kong hindi," sagot ni Billie.

"Ah....wife about your 5 conditions?" Tanong ni Dhom.

"Anong wife ka diyan.....MISIS! at sa limang kundisyon ko di ko pa napag-iisipan pero meron na akong naisip na isa."

"Okay then Misis ko, what's your first condition?"

"Narinig ko toh kay Beatrix na gusto mong makabawi sakin diba?"

"Yes Misis ko.. ofcourse I want too."

"Kung ganun.....akyatan mo ko ng ligaw....kung gusto mong makabawi...then pag-iisipin ko pa ang apat na natitirang kondisyon... because I wnat to take everything slowly as possible."

"Ligaw....you mean Court you....paano naman kita liligawan kung asawa na kita...anong sasabihin ko...I can't just ask you will you be my girlfriend when your already my wife?"

"Ah....basta manligaw ka!"

"If Dhom don't want to court you...then I'll court you instead...I, Wyatt Malcolm is more than willing. If you want I can snatch you away from Dhom!" Wyatt interrupted while raising his both hands.

"Shut up Wyatt!" Then he glare at Wyatt.

"Fine... I'll court you then..." Dhom said while looking at Wyatt.

"O sige..... simulan mo na bukas....at yung shampoo mo o sabon mo pakipalitan nakakasuka....parang amoy ketchap na strewberry na Durian basta ang baho mo...." Then Billie left the living room. She went up stairs where Dhom's room is.

"Dhom alam mo bukod sa masgwapo ako, masmalinaw ang mata ko...mukhang masmabango rin pala ako kesa sayo." Wyatt said while tapping Dhom's shoulder.

"F*ck did you not heard what she said a while ago...she said HOT HUNK!!! now back off.... she's mine humanap ka ng sayo yung kayang tanggapin yang kahanginan mo sa ulo." Sabi ni Dhom bago iwan si Wyatt while smirking.

As for Wyatt, defeat was all over his face.

"Elliot!!! Tara bar...mambabae tayo hanap tayo ng masmaganda! Yung masmalaki yung dede kesa kay Billie...sinong nagsabi na crush ko siya...hindi noh....masgusto ko yung mga babaeng malalaki ang hinaharap!"

"Basta may alak may balak pero sa sitwasyon mo Wyatt my friend.... I feel sorry for you. Hahahahaa...ok lang yun malandi ka naman." Sabi ni Beatrix bago iwan ang dalawa.

"Gag* kang amazona ka! Palibhasa kasi flat ka kaya iniiwan ka!"

"Ah...Talaga....sa pagkakaalala ko...nung nalasing ka tas nakita mo ko sa pool sabi mo nice boobs...like it.. tapos para ka pang aso niyan habang nakatingin sa dibdib ko!"

"Beatrix I'm drunk remember...at sinong lalaking matino ang magsasabi sayo nice boobs. Dream on Beatrix."

"Ikaw! And Wyatt drunks speaks the truth! Palibhasa kasi maliit lang ang sayo!"

"Nakita mo!"

"Oo...3 years ago!"

"Pwehhhh!!! 3 years ago lang pala... Beatrix nagbinata na ang junior ko."

Nagpatuloy ang dalawa sa pagbabangayan, at hindi napansin ang pag-alis ni Elliot.

Mabibigat ang bawat hakbang nito palabas ng mansyon, nang nasa labas na ito ay agad siyang sumakay sa kotse nito at pinaharurot paalis.

Habang tinatahak niya ang kalsada at may natanggap siyang voice message.

YOUR NEXT!

Then the voice message ends.

"Ayoko nga niyan....kahit lumuhod ka pa diyan!"

"Come on Billie, just one bite. Hindi naman masakit kumain ng green salad."

"Ayoko nga...di ako kambing!"

"Wife why do you have to be so hardheaded!" That's it Dhom lost his temper.

"Ayoko nga niyan.... nasusuka ako pag nakakakita ako ng pagkaing ganyan. Gusto kong kumain ng barbeque yung ulo ng manok yung duling ang mata!"

"Okay listen to me wife, Misis, baket,asawa ko...or whatever you want to be called. Kahit libitun ko ang buong Pilipinas walang manok na duling...okay....kaya kumain ka na. This pass few days your acting weird... especially your choice of food....you want to eat those gross foods?"

"Hindi ako kakain," Billie said bago ito muling nahiga ng kama. Pero agad siyang hinila ni Dhom at pinatayo.

"Hey..stand up! Kailangan mong kumain sa ayaw at gusto mo! My mansion my rules. When I say eat you eat...so my dear wife eat up or I'll eat you. Your choice!"

"Ayoko ko nga! Chaka bakit ang kulit mo ayokong kainin yang pagkain ng kambing na yan! Bakit hindi mo ko pagbigyan. Ulo ng manok lang naman ang hinihiling ko, tapos isaw, octopus na dalawa ang ulo at hita ng baboy na medyo sunog! Ang yaman yaman mo tapos hindi mo kayang ibigay ang mga yun sakin...alam mo napaka koripot mo!" and their she goes she bursted in tears and their now way to stop her. Because this pass few days Billie is getting out of hand. She's stubborn and doesn't listen at all. Not to Beatrix, not to Manang Ellen, and not to Dhom.

While Dhom is trying his very best to Court and understand his wife at the same time. He can't bring himself to a conclusion why his wife is acting like a brat. Not because Dhom is spoiling his dear wife but Billie, their's definitely something wrong with her.

She's sensitive, easy to irritate, in total she's a mess on her own. She doesn't want to wear her clothes that Dhom bought especially for her. Because she's wearing Dhom's clothes instead because she found it comfortable and now they're sharing Dhom's t-shirts.

"Wife please kumain ka na...if you don't want to eat green salads its fine.... I'll tell manang Ellen to cook something else just eat. You haven't eaten anything since last night.
