"Hello lover boy!"
Malanding bati ni Moira kay Zach na ikinakunot noo ng lalaki.
"What are you doing here Moira?"
"Guess what?"
napatawa ito ng mahina.
"You?"
ani Zach na nakaramdam ng pagkamuhi sa babae.
"Never in my wildest dream that this would happened to us, Moira! Ever since from—!"
"I told you, I won't give up on you!"
Singhal ni Moira sa kanya.
"You can't just stay away from me like that Zach!"
Pinaraanan niya ng hintuturo ang mukha ni Zach, akma sanang niyang hahalikan ang lalaki ngunit nag iwas ito ng mukha.
Hinawakan niya ang baba ni Zach to make him faced her.
"If I were you lover boy, you should be obedient. Lalo na't nasa kamay ko ang malandi mong babae!"
"Kapag sinaktan mo si Sophia, I'll swear to kill you—you bitch!"
Galit na galit na bulyaw ni Zach sa kanya, nagpupumiglas siyang pilit kumawala sa pagkakatali sa silya.
Parang gustong gusto niyang patayin si Moira sa pagbabanta nito sa buhay ni Sophia.
Moira smiled wickedly.
"I'll let go of her, after we get married. Sundin mo lahat ng gusto ko and I'll guarantee her safety!"
Yon kung maabotan mo pa sya ng buhay! She laughed inside. No one could steal you away from me, no one!
"This isn't love Moira, please come into your senses. This is just an obsession!"
"Who the hell are you to say that? Whether it's love or obsession that doesn't matter at all!"
She snorted.
"You think, you will be happy for the rest of your life?"
Zach said trying to put some sense into her head.
"As I told you I don't care about it at all, I'm just gonna marry you and everything will be fine. You can be with that bitch all you want, as long as I get what I want!"
Napahalakhak nitong sabi.
"How will I know that you won't hurt Sophia?"
Nanantiyang saad ni Zach. Moira dialed in her phone and put in on a loudspeaker.
"Tell that bitch to speak!" utos niya sa kabilang linya. "Dalian mo, wala akong oras mag antay sa inyo!"
Zach noticed that Moira suddenly become a different person, He regretted himself sa pakikipaglapit dito.
She's insane. Zach thought to himself.
"Zach Im fine!"
Biglang nabuhayan si Zach ng marinig ang boses ng dalaga.
"Are you really fine?"
ani Zach na napahagulgul ng iyak bigla nalang kumawala ang emotion kanina pa niya kinikimkim. He could not forgive himself pag may masamang mangyari kay Sophia.
"Im sorry sweety, I brought you this!"
"Don't worry about me, just remember what you've said!"
"I—"
Bigla nalang nawala sa ere ang boses ni Sophia, Moira ended the call bago paman matapos ni Zach ang kanyang sasabihin.
"She's alive, isn't she?"
"Fine, I'll do whatever you want Moira!"
ani Zach, he silently grit his teeth. He had no choice but to comply whatever Moira wants him to do, para sa kaligtasan ni Sophia.
"Someone will come here to groom you, lets get married in an hour!"
Tinitigan niya ng masama si Moira pero tinawanan lamang siya ng babae.
"Don't even think of escaping this place, alam mo ang magiging kapalit!"
Nanatiling tahimik si Zach, he was thinking about Sophia. Kamusta na kaya siya? Thinking what those bastard might did to her makes him insane.
"Hold on, Sophie!"
Mamaya maya pay dumating na ang sinabi ni Moira na mag aasikaso sa kanya.
From his looks down to his suit.
nakahilira ang lahat ng mga damit na pagpipilian niya at makailang pili na siya pero ni isa wala siyang nagustuhan dito.
Then Moira showed up wearing a bridal gown, di niya mapigilang mapangiwi.
She was really a shrewd! Lalo pang namuhi si Zach sa kanya.
"Is he not done yet?"
malakas nitong sigaw sa mga naroroon.
"Just choose random suit and make him wear it, Kung ayaw ninyong malintikan sa akin! We don't have a whole night here, lilipad pa kami patungog Austrilla!"
Damn this bitch! Zach curse her over and over again.
When this over I swear to kill, bitch!
Gaano man ka disgusto ni Zach ang idea ng baliw na babae but he had no choice, para sa kaligtasan ni Sophia, gagawin niya ang lahat.
He stood in the altar waiting for the crazy woman, di rin niya alam san lupalop ng mundo nakuha ng babae ang mga taong naroroon.
It was supposed a joyous occasion but only for those who were really inlove.
nakangiti pa ang mga bisitang naroroon, pati ang pari na nakatayo sa gitna ng altar ay abot hanggang taynga ang ngiti.
No one knows his pain!
Samantalang siya, he was crying daig pa niya ang na shot gun wedding.
"It's fine hijo, ganyan talaga when you are really inlove. You can't believe yourself waiting for that someone in front of the altar!"
Mas lalo pa siyang napaiyak sa tamis ng ngiti ng naturang pari.
Zach saw the wedding entourage. Isa isa na silang nagsitayuan sa kani kanilang pwesto, the Bridesmaids, Groomsmen at iba pang kasali.
Ibinaling niya sa ibang paningin ang kanyang tingin, nagpupuyos ang kanyang kalooban habang pinag mamasdan ang mga taong naroroon.
Until the wedding march song will be heard na sa loob loob niya ay daig pa ang funeral march.
My very own funeral march!
Ni hindi niya nilingon ang kanyang bride.
Sophia, it should've been you walking in the aisle exchanging our vows!
This is the day, that they were supposed to have a formal wedding.
Habang iniisip niya iyon patuloy na tumutulo ang kanyang mga luha.
Naramdaman niya ang paglapit ng baliw na babae, at kahit kunyari man lang ay di niya hinarap o nilingon ang sinomang naghatid dito.
Nanatili siyang parang statwa.
"We are all gathered here to witness the union of—"
"Father let just escape formalities and announced us.!"
Tila naiinip na sambit ng bride.
Biglang nagtaas si Zach ng paningin nang marinig niya ang nagsalita, he knew that voice very well.
but how come?
