I was Kim's made of honor and it was fine for me. But I didn't expect that John would be there. In the middle of wedding ceremony, I couldn't stop myself from looking at him. His masculine feature made me want to stare at him more.

Huli na nang mahuli n'ya akong nakatitig sa kan'ya. Agad akong nataranta at tumingin nalang sa harapan. Nakita ko sa gilid ng mga mata ko ang ngisi sa mga labi n'ya.

Grr.

'Dapat ngang malungkot s'ya 'di 'ba? Kasal na ang ex n'ya?' Sabi ko sa sarili ko.

Hindi ako makafocus at naglalakbay lang kung saan ang isip ko. He was staring at me! Not in front of him. Dapat nga s'yang magselos dahil ikakasal na si Kim kay Gerald.

'Hindi ba sinabi na ni John na hindi na n'ya mahal si Kim?' Tanong naman ng isip ko. Nakakainis talaga! Hindi nakikisama ang isip ko, parang gusto namang kampihan si John.

Natapos ang seremonya at nasa reception na kaming lahat. Halos lahat ng mga bisita ay nakatingin sa bagong kasal na sumasayaw. Their faces were overwhelmed with so much happiness. I could see the twinkle in their eyes. I just realized how they looked so perfect. They used to hate each other back then.

Huminga ako ng malalim at napabaling sa isang lalaking perpektong perpekto sa kinakatayuan n'ya. His movement was way too perfect and a lot of girls were staring at him, like a starving bitches!

He's staring at me again! Nanlalaki ang matang umiwas ako at napagdesisyunang umalis nalang papunta sa maraming mga tao para makapagtago. He's making me nervous. Shit!

Bago pa ako makalayo ay may nakahawak na sa braso ko. I looked at the man who was staring at me earlier.

"Emy."

"John.."

"Let's talk." He said while looking at my eyes intently.

"Hey, EM! You looked so lovely tonight. Please join to us." Nakangiting sabi ng kilala ko sa modeling, Alexa. Nandito din ang mga nakasama ko noon. Nakaupo sila sa isang mataas na lamesa.

Why are they here?

"Sure." I smiled. Good. Alexa's my saviour today. I should treat her better. I know, they just wanted me to get close to them but right now, I'll treat her like a plastic friend. I smirked.

Her face lit up when she saw John behind me. "Oh, Mr. Ciel." Yumakap s'ya kay John na parang magkakilala na talaga ng matagal. John embraced her as well, he ran his hand up and down on her back-nanadya. Asshole. "You can join with us, as well."

I glared at him. He just smiled, mocking at me. Tsk, he better not flirt with that bitch.

Matatalim ang mga titig ko sa kan'ya pero hindi n'ya ako pinapansin. Ngumingiti s'ya sa mga taong bumabati sa kan'ya. He's obviously mocking at me. Bakit ba kasi kailangan pa n'yang sumunod sa'kin? Ayan tuloy, nasa kan'ya na ang atensyon na mga tao dito sa lamesa.
