Hulog na hulog ako, oh!" *** After Thalea's nerve-wracking hangover from a party the previous night, she was taken by her best friend to a church for her to marry the man that her best friend was supposed to share a vow with. Bossy, rude and kinda playboy. Irish Flint will surely never be good to Thalea. He is sweet and soft, next minute he became obsessive and rude.

"That was a beautiful pain though. Salamat sa pansamantalang pagpapasilong mo sa'kin." She murmured before slowly walking away from the person she once called home.
