Hoy, bruha! Aga mong umalis? Next week ulit ah?

Raine read Unice's text outloud.

>Can't promise, but I'll try. :)

Napailing si Raine, she left the studio with Clarence first thing in the morning. Naka receive kasi sila ng text from their parents saying hinahanap na sila ng lolo nila. And they were extra worried for Raine dahil alam nilang kasama si Ranz ng barkada.

She let her stylist do her final touches. She was wearing a floor-length red velvet dress. He said she always looked good but red is just so her color.

"Yeah right," Raine rolled her eyes. "More like his favorite color."

"Tama naman po si Sir, Ma'am." Her stylist smiled. "Bagay niyo yung red."

"Oh," nakalimutan niya kasing may kasama siya. "Thanks."

Her phone beeped again.

See you at the dance, Khay!! xoxo Mauie

>Looking forward, hun.

Today is the celebration of MaVilla's 30th year in the business. Invited ang lahat ng makapangyarihang families in Manila. Yes, her whole barkada included. At mawawala ba naman ang mga Ongsee? Of course not.

That made her nervous. Tonight, they will announce the wedding. Ayaw na nga niyang pumunta eh, kasi andon si Rojee. Nasasakal siya just by the sight of him. Ano pa kaya na nandun si Ranz pero di naman niya malapitan.

"Miss Parco, ready na po kayo." Her stylist, Jane, smiled at her widely.

"Thank you, Jane." She appreciated her reflection. Tamanga siya, she looks extaraordinarily beautiful in red.,

"You didn't even need me," Jane vigorously shook her head.

Hindi sanay si Raine makipagusap sa mga taong di naman niya lubos kakilala so she just nodded in response.

"Khay, let's go." Clarence appeared at the door. "You look beautiful."

"Thanks." She smiled at her cousin.

"Does he know?"

"Yeah, he picked the color." Raine turned to give her cousin a better view.

"No, not the dress," Clarence looked at her eyes.

then she knew, he wasn't talking about the dress. He's talking about her biggest secret.

"No." She sook her head sadly, "Di ko pa nasasabi."

"Everything will happen in its time." Clarence gave her a warm smile, "Ready?"

She smiled back at him and nodded.

"Kylie, beautiful as always." Rojee greeted her as she descended from the stairs. "You look beautiful in red."

"Thanks." Di naman ganun kalamig si Raine, marunong naman siyang mag appreciate. Tama naman siya eh.

"Let's go." Rojee held his arm out for her.

But before she could take it, her phone beeped.

Lumayo siya ng konti. It was from an unregistered number.

"Last dance"  the text read. Her heart skipped a bit.

It couldn't be. Could it? But that's impossible. He wouldn't risk it. Would he?

Of course he would. -____-

Stupid guy.

Rojee cleared his throat. "Ready?"
