Lahat ng Kabanata ng Unwanted Bride : Kabanata 141 - Kabanata 150

Lumapit ito sa akin dala ang cellphone ko. "Your manager wants to meet you." saad nito at pinakita ang email sa phone ko. Napabuntong hininga ako bago tumango. Siguro dapat ko na siyang kausapin. Dalawang araw ang lumipas at todo alaga sa akin ang dalawa, minsan nga ay nag-aaway pa sila dahil kahit pagkuha ng tubig sa akin ay mag-aagawan pa. Sinusuway ko nalang si Papa dahil papatol pa talaga kay Chase, pero sa huli uutusan niya din naman. Nakaupo kaming tatlo ngayon sa sofa habang hinihintay ang manager ko. Papa told me na he needs to be here dahil kakausapin niya din ang manager ko. He wants to keep everything smooth and clean lalo na sa media, gusto niyang walang lalabas na media hindi tungkol sa pagbubuntis ko, hindi ko naman kasi itatago sa tao yun, hindi ko sila itatago. What he wanted is, ayaw niyang lumabas sa media ang kung ano mang alam ng manager ko at ng iba pa, kay Joy, sa pagwawala nito sa kompanya at sa amin ni Drake. Gustong siguraduhin ni Papa na hindi na ito m

Ngayon lang ako nakaramdam ng lungkot, kaunti lang naman. Siguro dahil mamimiss ko din ang trabaho ko. Pwede naman daw akong bumalik but I said no, my decision is final.Meron din akong mga plano na gagawin ko sa tamang panahon. Sapat na ang naipon kong pera para doon, may bahay naman na ako."Let's go, baby." Pumulupot ang braso ni Chase sa katawan ko, hinaplos pa nito ang tyan ko, and I'm proud to say na ang bilis kong makita si baby.May baby bump na ako!"Ang ganda-ganda mo." he said.Umangat ang tingin ko sa kanya, ang gwapo niya talaga lalo na ngayon na binalbasan ko siya. He's wearing his normal attire, white polo and black pants, bagay na bagay sa kanya ang clean cut niyang buhok."Thank you." I mouthed before I lift myself up to kiss him."Mmm, sweet." nakangiti nitong saad.Napapadalas ako sa paghalik sa kanya ngayon, hindi ko alam pero feel ko siya ang pinaglilihian ko.Meron na ba yun, kahit nasa pangalawang buwan pa lang si baby? Well, maybe.Inalalayan niya ako pasakay

No one really knows the reason behind it but yeah, it's a symbol of love and strength reminder that even in the darkness beauty can still bloom. Then, I posed, proudly showing off my baby bump. The audience erupted in applause and smiles. Kitang-kita ang baby bump ko nang tumagilid ako sa kanilang lahat, I did that both sides. I caught Chase's eye, and we exchanged loving smiles. "As she prepares to bid farewell to the runway, Claire reflects on her time with Victoria's Secret, expressing her heartfelt gratitude..." Sumunod nito ay narinig ng lahat ang boses ko, nirecord ko ito ilang araw bago ito maganap. Sa loob ng arena ay narinig nila ang maikli ngunit buong puso kong pamamaalam. "I'm grateful for the wings I've been given, and I'll cherish the memories forever. Thank you for being part of my journey." Lahat ng nasa arena at lahat ng manonood ay naririnig ang salita ko. I continued my final walk, habang muling narinig ang huli kong mga salita. "Soy, Claire Santillian. Muc

In front of it was a large glass wall that served as a room divider, where you could see the beauty of the view outside, with lights from different buildings and cars. But what amazed me more was the lights scattered throughout the room, there are lights attached to every corner and even on the floor.Pero may isa pang mas ikanagalak ng puso ko, what caught my heart was the rose petals scattered on the floor. And the scent of roses wafted to me. "'Do you like it? I know it's simple, but I hope you like it." I immediately turned around, and I was speechless when a bouquet of roses greeted me. "For the woman I love the most," he said, handing me the bouquet. "Chase.." I took it with tears in my eyes. "It's not just simple, Chase. I loved it so much, thank you so much!' I said happily. "Glad you liked it, baby." He answered. It was so beautiful, and it was my first time after all. This wasn't the first time Chase had done something like this for me, but he usually took me to

My words were cut off when someone suddenly said my name. I turned my gaze to the source, and i almost felt weak because of what I have saw. Hindi makapaniwalang nakatingin ako sa kanya. It was him, standing behind Chase. Malungkot na nakatingin sa akin ang matamlay na mga mata. How did I not notice him come in, gayong ako itong nakaharap sa pinto? Or was it because my attention was solely on Chase? Nagtatakang nilingon ni Chase ang tingin sa tinitingnan ko at kagaya ko bakas ang gulat sa kanya ng mapagtanto ang taong kasama namin ngayon. "Villamore." mariing saad ni Chase. He closed the box, and I followed it with my gaze before returning my attention to the front. Now, we both stared at the person standing before us. Sa akin pa din siya nakatingin at hindi pinapansin ang tao sa gilid ko. Kanina pa ba siya nandito? Kanina pa ba siya nakatingin sa aming dalawa ni Chase? I realized I wasn't mistaken, he was indeed there earlier, watching me. Watching again my every step.
