Prologue Seraphina pov"He's kind. Understanding. Wag mo lang isasagad pasensya niya," sabi ni Mom nang makarating kami sa cafe kung saan makikipagkita ako sa lalaking sinasabi nilang papakasalan ko.Ayokong maniwala sa kanila, lalo na't alam ko rin kung ano ang plano nila para sa akin. All they wanted was to convince me of how perfect my so-called fiance was.Pumasok ako sa cafe at umupo sa isang bakanteng mesa, doon ko siya hinintay."Latte and espresso," ang inorder ko.Sabi ni Mom, paborito raw niya ang espresso, at ang latte naman ay para sa akin.I didn't know what to feel.

I had one, but it barely reached my knees.Maine looked effortlessly pretty in her red dress, and I couldn't help but wonder if I could even match that.I went to my room and changed my dress.
