ALYANNA'S POV:
I hugged Mamu after the wedding ceremony because I felt so happy for Ate Yra.
"I've heard that the grandmother of the groom has a special message for the newlywed couple" biglang sabi nung pari tsaka naman pumunta sa harap si Madam Athena
"Let's congratulate this lovely couple by giving them a big round of applause!" sabi agad ni Madam Athena kaya naman nagpalakpakan lahat ng tao dito sa wedding hall
"I'm so thankful because my dear Yra accepted my grandson Ryle as her husband, even though this man is very playful and annoying" sabi ulit niya kaya naman natawa kaming lahat dito
"Can I ask if you know that old lady, Mamu?" tanong ko kay Mamu tapos tumango siya
"Of course I know her! She's the best friend of your Lola Pia" sagot naman niya na siyang kinagulat ko
"If I'm not mistaken, I think it's already been 50 years since our friendship started with the Ferrer family, and because of that friendship, our strong partnership is still growing" sabi ulit ni Madam Athena habang naka tayo sa harapan
"Actually, many of you think that this marriage happened just to make the partnership between our families stronger. But let me be clear to everyone that this marriage happened because these two loved each other, and this marriage is only a way to keep the friendship between our families last forever" sabi ulit ni Madam Athena kaya naman biglang natahimik yung mga tao dito
She's the best friend of Lola Pia? Is that why she keeps acting like that? Because she knows my grandmother.
Lola Pia is the mother of my mom.
I don't really remember Lola Pia. All I know is that Lolo and Lola passed away a few weeks before I started attending nursery school.
"Buti nalang talaga mag bestfriend itong si Yra at Ryle kaya hindi na rin kami nahirapan na sabihin sa kanila. Noon ngang sinabi namin na ikakasal sila ay kami pa nga yung nagulat kasi hindi talaga sila nagalit. Paano nga naman sila magagalit eh may feelings naman pala talaga sila para sa isa't isa na matagal na nilang itinatago. They've been engaged since their college days, and up until those times, they kept their feelings to themselve" sabi ulit ni Madam Athena kaya naman nagtawanan yung mga tao
"Since today is a great and perfect day, can I call my youngest grandson here in front?" sabi niya ulit tapos may isang lalaki na biglang tumayo at laking gulat ko nalang dahil yun yung mayabang na driver
Oh my god!
Don't tell me he's the grandson of that old lady.
OH MY GOD!!
He is the brother of Kuya Ryle. He is Yvan's best friend. That Mr. Yabang is actually a close friend of my sibling?
"Before I end this speech and go back to my seat, I want to announce something very important" sabi ulit Madam Athena kaya naman tumahimik ang lahat
"Can I call my dear Ysabel here in front too?" sabi niya ulit na siya namang ikinagulat nang lahat at lalong lalo na ako
"Why is that old lady calling me?" nagtatakang tanong ko kay Mamg pero hindi siya sumagot dahil siya rin mismo di alam yung isasagot
"What the hell is wrong with that old lady" naiinis na sabi ko tapos biglang hinawakan ni Mamu yung kamay ko
"Ysabel, language!" mahinahon na sabi niya sakin kaya tumango nalang ako
Habang nag iisip ako dito sa kinauupuan ko napansin ko na may ibinulong si Kuya Ryle dun sa lola nila.
"Ysabel, where are you, my dear?" tawag ulit ni Madam Athena sakin
