"And i now pronounce you, man and wife. You may now kiss the bride."

"Don't you dare put that dirty lips of yours on my lips, Hughes." she whispered through gritted teeth.

Pilit pa syang nakangiti sa lalaking nasa harap nya habang sinasabi yon. Naiinis talaga sya sa lalaking 'to, kanina nya pa kasi ito nahuhuling patingin-tingin sa kanya at biglang ngingisi.

He smirked, "As you wish Mrs Hughes"

And with that she felt something hot touching her lips.

Napatingin agad si Patricia sa gawi kung saan nakatayo si Mark. Nakita nya ang pagyuko nito at pagtalikod kasabay ng malakas na hiyawan.

She don't know why but when she saw him walking away made her feet step forward and follow his direction.

"MARK!" She shouted nang medyo makalayo na sila sa seaside kung saan kinasal sina Teejay and Alexandra.

Tumigil ito sa paglalakad pero hindi lumingon sa kanya.

Ba't nya nga ba ito tinawag? Ba't nya nga ba ito sinundan? She don't know..

"S-sorry.. "she whispered habang nakayuko at kagat kagat ang labi.

"For what? Sorry kasi niloko ako ng bestfriend mo? The hell i care Patricia!"

"No.. i mean, for sending you the invitation."

"Ikaw--?"

She nodded, "I'm so sorry Mark. I just want you to realize that you need to move on with your life and forget about---"

Napatigil sya sa pagsasalita when she felt Mark gripping her left arm so damn hard, nanlalaki ang mga matang tinignan nya ito, "M-mark.."

"Stop calling my name as if we're close and stop acting as if you're my girlfriend" Madiin na sabi ni Mark sa kanya.

Nakakatakot na ang aura na yon ni Mark. but she don't care, hindi sya magpapa-intimidate dito. "Hindi lang sya ang babae sa mundo Mark! And you should be the one who should stop acting like she cheated on you when the fact is you didn't even have any commitment with her!"

"SHUT UP, WOMAN!" He hissed.

"I won't! You can't stop me Mark. You need to face the reality! Wake up! There's a lot of fishes on the sea, you just have to--"

"Fishes on the sea? Like who? Like you?" He stated sarcastically.

"Oo! Tulad ko! Oo!" She burst out.

"Hey girl, congrats!" Bati ng mga kaibigan nya kay Alexandra as she kissed their cheeks one by one.

Naupo sya sa tabi ng mga ito and sighed. Kasalukuyan silang nasa reception ng kasal nya sa Boring Guy na si TeeJay.

"What's with the face?" Tanong ni Ashlynne sa kanya. She shrugged saka inilibot ang tingin sa paligid.

"Where's Patricia?" She asked right after noticing na wala sa paligid ang kanyang bestfriend.

"Maybe nagchange ng clothes, nawala sya kanina after ng ceremony eh?" Sagot ni Andy habang patuloy lang sa pagkain.

"And Gavin..?"

Lahat sila napatingin sa payat at matangkad na babaeng tahimik na nakaupo - si Lara. "Lumabas lang saglit, may kausap sya sa phone.." nahihiyang sagot naman nito.

Lahat sila napa-'ahh'sa sinabing yon ni Lara. Aalis na sana si Alexandra sa table na yon ng bigla syang may maalala.

She smiled wickedly and excitedly, "Where's my gift??" She even cross her arms while waiting for their answers.

Nakita nyang nagsipag-ngitian ang mga ito sa kanya. Lalo tuloy sya nakaramdam ng excitement. Alam nyang maganda ang ireregalo ng mga ito sa kanya, dahil bukod sa magaganda ang mga ito ay mayayaman at may mga taste pa.

"Omg! Yung gift daw natin!" Andi exclaimed.

Tumayo pa si Andi at nilapitan si Alexandra dahilan para lalong maexcite si Alex, "Tara, papakita namin sayo" andi whispers.

Alex nodded, tinignan nya ang iba pa nyang kaibigan na nakangisi sa kanya.. Damn, lalo syang naeexcite!

Nagsipagtayuan pa ang mga ito at nilapitan sina Alex at Andi, "Omg! Kotse ba ang regalo nyo?"

"Nah-uhh.." Leila says,

Sabay-sabay nilang niyakap si Alex, "We give you our Love and friendship Alex! We love you!" Andi says excitedly.

"Just what the Fck?!" Alex exclaimed sabay tulak sa mga ito.

"H-hindi mo ba nagustuhan ang gift namen? Ang tagal ko pa naman tong pinagisipan Alex, tapos hindi mo naman pala maaappreciate." Naka-ngusong sabi ni Andi.

"Shut up Andi! Nase-stress ako sayo!" Alex burst out And walks away as her friends laugh like there's no more tomorrow.

"San mo ko dadalhin? Ano ba Mark! Nasasaktan ako!" Sabi ni Patricia kay Mark habang hinahatak-hatak nito ang braso nya habang kinakaladkad sya papunta sa.. she don't know?

Nanlaki pa ang mga mata ni Patricia ng dalhin sya ni Mark sa pinakahuling pinto sa pinakadulo ng hallway.. Sinipa nito ang pinto at itinulak sya papasok.

M-male's Cr..?

What the hell are they doing there?! And why did he bring her there?!

Napalunok sya nang tatlong beses at napayuko nang makita nyang naghuhubad si Mark ng pang-itaas. "W-what.." Mark cutted her off.

"YOU FCKN WANT ME RIGHT?!" He shouted.

"I just.."

He grinned, "Stop acting as if you're a freaking virgin!"

She was about to shout at him too when he push her on the tiled-wall, hold her wrists upward and kiss her lips so damn hard.

He groaned nang malasahan nya ang dugo mula sa bibig ni Patricia. He even heard her soft cry but he doesn't care! This woman is Alex's bestfriend and she must be punished.. She must be what? Nevermind.

He stopped kissing her and stared at her for a moment. Napalunok pa sya ng makita nyang tumutulo ang luha nito, magulo ang buhok at sobrang namumula ang labi. "S-sorry.."

Umiling lang si Patricia, pinunasan ang magkabilang pisngi at inayos ang damit saka dali-daling lumabas ng banyo.

Ilang beses nya pa itong tinawag pero hindi ito lumingon kaya sinundan nya ito.

Papunta sana si Alex sa Cr para magretouch ng matanaw nya si Patricia na nagmamadaling lumabas galing doon, tatawagin nya sana ito ng may marinig syang boses.

"Patricia!" Someone shouted. That voice.. She knew who owns that voice..

Nanlaki ang mata nya ng masalubong si Mark.

Si Mark na gulo ang buhok, may kalat na lipstick at hindi nakaayos na damit.

What the fvckn hell?!
