Athena POV

I was from the Comfort Room when I enter my class.

"Ma'am tumatawag po si Congressman kanina, ayan po oh, nakailan missed calls na" One of my students informed.

I look down on my phone. *5 miss calls Alexander

To Alexander
Fr Athena

Is there something wrong? Nasa klase pa po ako.

"Anyway, are you done?" I ask my students who are working with their activity.

"Ma'am wait, 5 minutes more" They request. I nod and took a sit first while waiting.

Suddenly, my phone rang. "Hello?"

"Mahal? I've been trying to call you"

"Sorry, nasa klase ako eh, ano bang meron?"

"Mom scheduled for your wedding gown fitting this Saturday"

"Ha? As in sa Saturday na,ang bilis naman yata?" I asked in disbelief.

"Well, magiging asawa naman na din kita, bakit pa natin patatagalin?" He laughed.

"Sira, I'll text her nalang, ingat ka dyan" I said.

"Bye, take care!"

I went back to my students and tell them to pass their papers. It's my last class so it means i can go home.

On my way to the parking, i saw the Marcos' SUV. I walk closer to see and to my surprise it was Tita Liza. She ran towards me as she hug me tight.

"Tita, hindi nyo po sinabi andito pala kayo" I greet.

"Ah sorry iha, wala kasi akong kasama pupunta sa mall eh, pwede mo ba akong samahan?" She asked.

"Ah-  o-osige po" I stutter, i mean to be honest, medyo nahihiya pa din ako sakanya,Even though she's my future Mother-in-law.

"Oh thank you so much iha, let's go" She smiles as we both ride on the car and went our way.

We arrived at the mall and walk straight to the women's clothing. "Paulit-ulit na kasi mga damit ko, ikaw iha, go choose what you want, does Sandro told you about the gown you're going to fit this coming weekend?" She ask.

I nod. "Opo tita, sinabi na po nya" I smile. She choose 3 blouses while i choose a sleeveless decent one. After paying, we go to a simple restaurant and eat.

"I can't wait for the both of you to get married, i know i told him before that 'don't get married too young' but now you are on the right age and I'm happy for you two" She sweetly said as she held my hand resting on the table.

After that, we already went home and nag pauwi din sya ng ensaymada for pasalubong. When i ride off the car, i thank her first. "Tita, i had a great time po, next time po ulit" I said.

"Me too, i feel like i had a nice bond with my daughter, sabagay, you'll be my future daughter-in-law" She smiles. I froze on my position as my face turn red.

"U-uh ha-ha sige p-po, thank you po" I awkwardly said.

"Gurl ikot ka nga, tingin nyo po?" Jamie asked mama and Tita Liza as i fit the other gown. I turn around and wait for their comment.

"Hmm, it looks nice naman" Mama said.

"Yeah, pwede naman, you can fit the next one, iha" Tita liza suggests. Pang lima ko nang sukat to, medyo malalaki kasi ung mga nauna.

I'm about to get back at the fitting room when the designer show us a sketch of a wedding gown. "Hi, soon-to-be-bride you can also choose from these gowns and pwede natin ipasadya sa size mo, beb" The designer said.
