* TWO YEARS AGO, *



*Luna's POV*

Today is my wedding day and I am getting married to the man of my life. We've been together since when we were in college and we've never broken up once. We were the type of couple who quarrels a lot but we never broke up. I can't believe how lucky I am with him.

The car parked out of the church and I smiled widely at the view. This was the church where Jace proposed to me a year ago. I'm so lucky to marry a guy like Jason. 'Di ako magsasawang ipagmalaki kung gaano akong kaswerte sa kanya. Lumabas ako ng kotse at nag-abang sa labas ng simbahan.

A few seconds later pumasok na kami ni dad sa church and we were greeted by the warm smiles of our relatives and friend. Nginitian ko ang mga kaibigan ko and when I looked in front, I saw my future husband.

I stared at Jace, eyes full of tears, while walking down the aisle. He looked so handsome with a tux on. I can't take my smile off for even just a second. Sobrang saya ko dahil ikakasal na ako sa lalaking pinakamamahal ko. Parang kailan lang s'ya nagpropose sa sakin.

Pinapangarap ko ang araw na ito simula pa nung bata pa ako. Ang araw na ikakasal ako sa taong mahal ko at mahal ako. I've always dreamt of getting married and here I am, finally a bride. I smiled at my dad and he smiled back before letting his arm go.

I walked up to Jace and smiled widely under the veil I had on. We both looked at the priest and the program continued. Nakapag-exchange na kami ng vows at nakaharap na kami sa isa't isa. But something seemed off with Jace. Parang ang lalim ng iniisip n'ya. Siguro kinakabahan lang s'ya pero hindi ko ring mapigilang isiping nagsesecond-thoughts siya. I know I shouldn't judge kaya iningiti ko nalang ito.

"Do you, Luna Lopez, take Jason Maravilla, to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

A tear managed to escape my eye as I looked into my future husband's eyes. I love him so much, how could I say no. "I do."

"And do you, Jason Maravilla, take Luna Lopez to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

Jace forced a smile out then he lets out a big breath pero nawala bigla ang ngiti niya pagkatapos. I felt worried as he started looking around the church. As if he was looking for something. Dito na ako inatake ng kaba. "H-honey. Is there is a problem? We can talk it out after the wedding. I know it can be overwhelming but just say yes and we can leave as soon as possible." I reasoned in a hushed tone. "Honey, are you okay? What's going on? Why aren't you budging?"

He frowned and tumingin s'ya sa mga mata ko at napaluha rin siya. "I-I'm sorry everyone but... I d-don't."

I whimpered as I dropped my bouquet and collapsed to my knees. What is happening?! I can't think straight and I feel like my head is running in circles. He doesn't want to marry me? But why?! We were doing fine and I don't seem to recall any times where he was unhappy with our relationship. Why is this happening??

Lumakad na s'ya pababa ng altar at dahan-dahan syang naglalakad papunta sa mga benches. "I'm sorry everyone but..."

Sa sandaling iyon ay gumuho na ang aking mundo nang sabihin niyang, "I know this is wrong but mahal ko si Kendra. Ang totoo niyan ay matagal na kaming may relasyon. 'Di ko alam paano makipag-break sa fiancé ko because I really loved Luna but I fell deeper for Kendra. Tinatanggap ko ang kamalian ko. Please forgive me but I know I made a mistake no one should ever do, yet I still did it, kaya alam ko kung di ninyo akong patatawarin and tatanggapin ko iyon."

What kind of excuse is that?! Patatawarin?! Has he lost his mind?!

Galit. Galit ang naramdaman ko dahil sa tagal naming magkasama ay may relasyon pala siya sa kapatid ko! I removed my vail and I felt my bun fall but I still stormed towards Jace. I guess I got my strength from the adrenaline rush. I pulled his shoulders and stared deeply into his eyes. No words can ever explain the pain and anger I'm feeling right now.

I started punching his shoulders as ugly cries of brokenness escaped my eyes. He stood there not flinching at my weak punches.

"What was I to you all these years?! You made me fall in love with you for what?! To play with my feeling 'cause I'm 'gullible?!'"

His eyes fell to the ground. "'Di ko sinasadya. Nafall ako bigla pero trust me, pinigilan ko ang sarili ko. Parang ba akong ginayuma. I couldn't control myself."

"You liar!" Sigaw ko sa mukha niya. "Sa lahat ng pede mong gawing kabit, kapatid ko pa?! I wish I never met you. No wonder people hated you when we were in school, you're nothing but a heartless douchbag!"

He flinched at what I said but didn't say anything.

Napatingin naman ako sa kapatid kong demonyo. Hindi niya ako matignan sa mga mata ko. Guilty ang hayop! "Demonyo ka Kendra!!!"

Sinabunutan ko ito at sinampal nang malakas. Hinila ko rin ang mga kamay ng damit niya at pati na rin ang palda na narinig kong napunit. Binitawan ko ang damit niya at sinakal siya nang matindihan. Hayop s'ya!

"Hayop ka!!!"

Pinaghiwalay kami nina tito Fred at ni Jason. Tiningnan ko muli ang babaeng tinawag kong kapatid and her dress was torn that it was exposing her brassiere.

"Jace how could you?" I cried with my voice cracking. I wondered how did I fell in love with a monster like Jason. He only cares about himself and ngayon nya pa talaga pinakita kung kalian nasa altar na kami. I continued to cry as I collapsed again.

"Tandaan mo na simula ngayon hindi ako papayag na mabuhay ka ng mapayapa!" Napatingin naman ako kay Kendra and growled. "Same goes to you! Sinusumpa ko na di ka mabuhay na may kaligayahan!! Mangaagaw!"

I stormed out of the church with my friends behind me trying to comfort me. Nothing can calm me down. Nothing can fix my broken heart. I ignored all my bridesmaids and my mother too who were calling out my name. I ignored Amara as well, who is my best friend who also tried to calm me down. Nothing could ever cheer me up.

The betrayal of two people I trusted and loved just hurts so much and I know it'll leave a permanent scar on me.

I collapsed on the floor and continued crying. It hurts so bad. It hurts like hell! Trinaydor ako ng fiancé at kapatid ko!

There was only one thing on my mind and I needed to get what's mine.

Vengeance.
