私は海辺にひっそりと建つ小さなチャペルに誰よりも一足早くやって来ていた。新郎新婦はまだ来ていない。空を見上げれば雲一つない青空が広がっている。海から拭く潮風をもっと身体に感じたくて、目を閉じ、両手を広げて思い切り吸い込んだ。
「何て清々しい陽気なんだろう……」
そして目を開けると改めて眼前に立つ教会を見上げた。海を背景に、草原の中にひっそりと建つ美しい教会。真っ白な壁で出来た建物は左右に大きな赤いとんがり屋根が付いている。入口は大きなアーチ型でお洒落な木の扉になっている。まるで1枚の大きなアートのような風景だ。この教会で結婚式を挙げようと決めたのは新郎新婦と私の3人。本当は私なんかが2人の結婚式に口を挟める権利は無いのに、何故か2人は私にも選んで欲しいと強く訴えて来たのだ。だから申し訳ないけれども教会選びに参加させて貰い、3人でここに決めたのだった。
中央には時計台もあり、てっぺんには当然の如く大きなベルが取り付けられている。時刻は午前8時をちょっと過ぎた所だ。式は10時からだから、私は2時間も早くここへ来てしまった事になる。
「お姉ちゃん……今頃心配してるかな……。それに……亮平……」
ポツリと呟き、思わず目頭が熱くなってくる。
「駄目だな……私ってば……こうなることをずっと願っていたはずなのに……いざとなると……こんなに辛いなんて……」
私は涙が出てこないように必死で楽しい事を考えた。お姉ちゃんと2人で旅行へ行った事。亮平と一緒に学校帰りにファミレスに行った事。3人で居酒屋に行ったり、カラオケをした事……。駄目だ……。結局私の楽しかった思い出は全て姉と亮平に関わる事ばかりだ。
私はますます悲しみが込み上げてきて……ついに堪えきれなくなり、涙が溢れだしてきた。一度流れ出した涙は止まる事を知らない。そう、私が式の2時間も前に教会へやって来た目的は……今から涙が枯れ果てるまで泣く為にやって来たのだ。だってそうでもしなければ、私は悲しみに耐えきれず、2人のおめでたい結婚式の最中に泣きだしてしまうかもしれないから。 ごめんなさい、お姉ちゃん……亮平……。 本当は2人の事をお祝いしてあげたいのに……今はとてもそんな気持ちになれないよ……自分で決めた事なのに。全ては覚悟の上だったのに。神様、どうかお願いします。
2人が式を挙げている間…私が泣きだしませんように……。
2人の幸せを心から願えますように……。
私はいつまでもいつまでも両手で顔を覆って泣き続けた—―
"You are jealous, Miss Mahinhin!" I suddenly turned around to face him, who was following me. I stared at him with a frown. What was he talking about?He was suddenly surprised by what I did, so he also stopped walking. However, I saw how the edge of his lip rose as he looked down at me because he was tall and I was only up to his shoulder.I looked at him sharply, so he suddenly became serious.I pointed to myself, even though I saw two of him because I was so dizzy from the wine I drank earlier and the sudden dancing. "Me, jealous? You've been accusing me of that for a while now, what are you referring to? When you and your girlfriend were making out before saying goodbye? For your information, boss, I respect two people who are in a relationship. What do you think of me? Do I like porn so I can watch you two up close? Are you crazy? So in short, I'm not jealous of you two. I was just annoyed earlier because you pulled me in the middle of my dancing with your friends. We left there
When we arrived at the bar, I didn't know why everyone kept looking at me. I thought they were looking at Kuya Izaak, but it turned out they were looking at me. "Tsk, I told you we should have changed your clothes," Boss whispered to me. I elbowed him lightly, making him wince in pain. I brought my mouth close to his ear. "Whose fault is it anyway? You're the one who took this from my closet, and now you're complaining." "Because I didn't know that what I took from the closet was like that, and why did you choose to bring something like that with all the clothes I bought you?" "And where is this conversation going to lead, is it just about my clothes?" I asked because I was wearing a black backless dress, so my back was showing, and he had been asking me to wear his jacket, but I didn't want to. That's why we were a bit late inside the room because we had been arguing for a while. I just put it on my shoulders to cover my back, but I didn't really wear it so I would still have so
"Am I really sleeping here with you?" I asked him, looking back at the bed. The bed was wide and had five pillows, I could probably put some in the middle as a barrier, and besides, we've slept together in my room before, so why am I so nervous? Maybe it's because we're in a different place now, because at home I sometimes let him sleep in my room because mommy or daddy are there. And so far, he hasn't done anything bad to me except sleep soundly next to me, and between the two of us, I think I'm the only one who tosses and turns in my sleep. I looked at the sofa in the room and saw that it was wide and long, maybe I could sleep there later, what do you think? "Yes, and you can go to sleep first and I'll follow later because my companions are still drinking. I'll join them." He said, and I thought about what he said. I checked the time on my wristwatch and saw that it was still early to sleep. "I'll sleep later too because it's still early, and besides, it would be a waste to spe
"Where in Batangas are we going, Kuya Boss?" I asked, because he might suddenly leave me here, at least I'd know this place. "Kuya Boss, huh?" he smirked. "Oh, that's just what I'll call you because you're my Kuya and my Boss, cool, right?" I said and immediately took off my seatbelt to get out of the car. I grabbed my black bag from the backseat, and while tying up my long hair, I looked around. We're at a villa resort now. "Nasugbu, Batangas, and we're here now at my friend's villa. They thought of this as the meeting place," he answered. "Let's go!" I immediately followed him. He was talking to a staff member, and because I'm ignorant, I didn't let the opportunity pass to take pictures of the whole villa and the place in Batangas. "Yes, this way sir." The female staff pointed, and Boss and I followed. He didn't let me get left behind, maybe he knows that I'm a shy person. He put his arm around my waist so we could walk together. "Do you own this villa?" I just had to ask.
