Icelyn POV
Pinagtitinginan at pinagbubulungan ako ng mga tao ngayon dito sa bar, why, obviously because I'm still wearing may f*cking wedding gown and veil on my head, tsk, i won't be here naman kung hindi lang dahil sa mokong na babaerong yun eh
"bigyan moko ng isang boteng whisky" sabi ko sa bartender at yumuko, i wanted to cry, pero ayaw ko masira ang make up ko, mas mahal pa tong make up ko kesa sakanya noh
Nilapag ng bartender ang bote sa harap ko at baso na may yelo
"remove the ice please" i said at ibinalik ang baso sakanya at yumuko uli
"bottle of whisky too" rinig kong boses ng lalaki sa gilid ko, boses palang alam konang may itsura na ito
Itinaas ko ang ulo ko at lumingon ako sa gilid at nakita ang lalaking naka white na suit, araw ba ng mga iniwan ngayon
Matangos ang ilong neto, mahaba ang pilik mata, at mukang malambot na labi, hayyss
He look at me with shock and frown his face
"let me guess your groom left you?" he asked, tumawa naman ako at umiling, me, iiwan ng groom, huh
"i left the church" sagot ko sakanya at hinanap ang bartender na ang tagal ibigay ang baso sakin, pinataggal kolang ung yelo eh
"how come?" nilapag ng bartender ang basong walang yelo sa gilid ko kaya nilagyan ko ito ng alak at ininum bago sumagot sakanya
"he cheated, with our wedding coordinator" natatawa kong sabi sakanya, itinaas nya ang baso nya at nakipag cheers sakin
"that's awful" bulong nya at ininom ang alak
"what about you, your bride left you?" tanong ko naman sakanya, ngumiti ito at tumawa
"yep, she didn't even showed up" sabi nya binuksan nya ang phone nya at may ipinakita saking message
'I'm sorry i can't marry you'
"oh, poor you" i said
"it's fine i don't even know her" he said, i look at him with a surprise face
"arrange wedding?" i asked, tumango sya at umorder sa bartender
"unfortunately i was too busy with our family company and couldn't even find a woman, so my mother arranged a wedding for me"
"so what happened after she didn't showed up?" i asked
"well, my mother didn't even like her, so it's fine" he said at nilagay sa gitna namin ang inorder nyang pulutan
"by the way Alexander, Alexander phoenix " pakilala nito, phoenix?, pqrang narinig kona ang apilyido na yan kung saan
"icelyn cooper" i said at nakipag kamay sakanya
"your's are still awful, what happens after you found out he cheated? " he asked, tumawa naman ako ng maalala ang lahat
"well, i still walk the aisle, but, nasa gitna palang ako nag play na sa screen ang cctv at nakita ng lahat ng bisita namin ang kalandian nya, and after nun, nag walk out nako"
"wearing that dress?" he asked
"yup, and nag jeep ako" tumatawang sagot ko kaya natawa sya
"you're incredible" at nakipag cheers uli sya
May lumapit naman saming lalaki na malaki ang ngiti, mukang aso, sino ba to?
"shouldn't you two be on a honeymoon right now?" tanong nito, pakielam neto, aba, chismoso
Sasagot sana kami na hindi kami magkasama ng sumigaw ang lalake
"hey everybody, we have a newly wed in here, let's congratulate them!!!" sigaw nito, naghiyawan naman ang mga tao at nag congratulate ang iba, p*ta, tumawa naman yung isa at sinabayan nalang ang trip nung isa
~~~fast forward~~~~~
"hey!!, misis ko, wait!! " lasing na sigaw nung isa, gumegewang naman akong lumapit sakanya
"ano po yun asawa ko" i jokingly said at umakbay sakanya
"since we're both sinayang, tayo nalang magpakasal" sabi nito at tumawa, tumawa rin ako at naglabas sya ng singsing sa bulsa nya hindi pako sumasagot ng isuot nya na ito sa kamay ko at hinalikan ako, at dahil sa kalasingan ko rin ay tinawanan ko lang ito
And the next thing i knew is nasa city hall naman kami, nagkakamut ulo si mayor kahit panot sya at nagtatawanan naman ang mga kasamahan nya at parang anak neto sa gilid nya
And the next thing i knew again, is i was married to this guy and i was now a phoenix
