ARRANGED MARRIAGE:

A marriage born out of a business arrangement where both parties aim to benefit from the other.

Adam asked me to have dinner with him. But I knew my cousin better. He only invited me over for dinner to either drop a bomb on my head or he’d touch base on what’s going on with the business. So even though it was casual, I was ready with the figures in my head, just in case he asks.

“Business is good?” he asked casually.

“I knew you took me to dinner for a reason!” I accused, pointing a finger at him.

He chuckled. “Just asking.”

I smiled at him. “It’s great!” I said. “In a few months, you’ll see those figures going green.”

“Maybe it’s time to expand.”

I stared at him. “What do you mean?”

He shrugged. “Well, my investor saw

The whole self pitying is getting old. Jumping to conclusions, we can’t be more than friends but you can’t be with anyone else. Personal growth should have happened sooner

  • Knight in Shining Suit   Epilogue: THE WEDDING

    THE WEDDING The ceremony that officially takes a couple to the beginning of their happily ever after… a gathering that involves a lifetime of promises. Breathe in. Breathe out. I looked at myself in the mirror. I could barely recognize myself. The girl staring back at me was wearing a very elegant white princess gown made from the finest duchesse satin and silk. The bodice that has a sweetheart neckline was encrusted with genuine crystals. The romantic full skirt with elaborate ruffles and folds was adorned with crystals and intricate embroidery, as well as the cathedral length veil that I wore. The famous designer who made my gown made sure that the dress was fit for fairy tale and princess romances, too. My hair was curled and clipped in a half pony and fastened with two diamond hair combs that belonged to Ryder’s mother. My hair cascaded around my face and there were very s

  • Knight in Shining Suit   38. THE VENUE

    THE VENUE:The place where the whole wedding will take place. Considerations in choosing a venue could be because the place holds special memories for the couple or it could be sentimental to one of the couple’s parents or grandparents. But more than anything, the venue chosen must accommodate the theme of the wedding.It was the most hectic following months of my life. I was setting up Ever After Manhattan, meeting up with potential suppliers, and hiring and training people. On top of all that, I was planning my own wedding. I had to actually get Nicole to stay in New York once in a while to help me. Leilani, my assistant in Malibu, was left in charge of the branch and Nicole and I would just fly in if there were important matters that needed our attention.The first major problem that I had was the location of my wedding. I could easily have that in a hotel, but it wasn’t good enough

  • Knight in Shining Suit   37. RING

    RING:A ring is round because it represents eternity… like a love that will last forever. It is a symbol of never-ending commitment. It is usually worn on the left hand, on the fourth finger, as “myth” states that this finger contains the “vena amoris” or the “vein of love”, which is connected to the heart.We were sitting on the deck; Ryder was strumming his guitar, serenading me with his smooth, soulful voice.I couldn’t help but be drawn to him and the world he was bringing me to when he sings. If I wasn’t in love with him already, hearing him sing to me would probably do the job.“How come you sing so well?” I asked him.“Genes, I guess.” He smiled.“Did you always know how to play the guitar?”He nodded. “Ever since I was a kid. I play the piano, too.”&ldq

  • Knight in Shining Suit   36. PRESENT

    PRESENT:A moment or period in time perceptible as intermediate between past and future; The period between Yesterday and Tomorrow… Today.It is also referred to as something special given to another person… a Gift.Remember this quote? “Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, and Today is a GIFT, that is why it’s called the Present.”Astrid.It’s been almost a week since I got out of the hospital. I got away just fine with some stitches on my forehead, just above my left brow. My wrist was also stitched up as apparently, I landed on broken pieces of glass when Bryan banged my head on the kitchen counter.Ryder was still at the hospital. Apparently, he took a couple of blows for me when he came to my rescue. And I k

    WEDDING ALBUM:A collection of the snapshots and pictures captured during the wedding day. The Wedding Album holds all the memories of the most wonderful day between a husband and a wife.Ryder.I have to meet her. The girl I spent half a day looking for around the city! I thought I would never see her again.“I’ll cover the bar, guys!” I told my bartenders. I took my jacket off and grabbed the baseball cap from one of my staff and wore it on my head. “Borrow for a while, okay?”He looked at me like he thought I was high or something and then he nodded.I watched her. She was alone. Now, I wish I knew some pick-up lines. Or if I did, I knew how to use them effectively! But so far the only things that I could remember hearing around were:‘Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?’or

  • Knight in Shining Suit   34. SOMETHING BORROWED

    SOMETHING BORROWED:A bride must complete her outfit by wearing something that is not hers. Suggestions would be a tiara, hair clips, gloves, jewelry, and the list goes on and on.Astrid.My heart pounded in my chest. But I knew that I shouldn’t panic. This was Bryan! He was one of my best friends before we decided to become more than friends. I knew him. Once in his life, I loved him. And he loved me. He will never hurt me physically… or will he?“Bryan…” I breathed. “Are you okay? You look… drunk.”He laughed. “Oh, I am more than that! And I like it!” His eyes gleamed with mischief and I got even more scared.“Wha-what do you want?” I asked him, taking a step backward.“Ha!” He sighed angrily. “You still don’t know
