Wanted: A Chaperon Novels & Stories

“Dito na lang ako ma'am maiingit ako kapag mayroon kayong gawin ni Cong. Isa pa hindi niyan maka bwelo si boss Kaizer kung may chaperon ka,” Nagsalubong ang kilay ko kunwari naging seryoso ako kaya naman agad sumenyas si ate Ronna, na i-zipper n'ya ang bibig niya. “Sabi ko nga magpapaalam ka lang kay sir Kaizer. Pasok ma'am para makausap mo na.”

Ako naman, nakatunganga lang, iniisip, “Kung kasal ang kailangan, dapat may gown, may bulaklak, may ninong na lasing sa reception. Eh ito? Mukhang sponsor namin ay Xerox at ballpen.” Nang dumating ang araw, sinundo niya ako. Hindi ako naka-gown, hindi rin ako naka-makeup gaya ng mga bride na nakikita ko sa social media. Just a simple dress, hair down, at isang pitik ng lip tint para hindi halatang galing ako sa stress. Dinala niya ako sa isang lumang heritage chapel na parang nakatago sa loob ng art gallery. Labas pa lang, tahimik at madilim, parang haunted house kung hindi lang may kotse kaming nakaparada.

This marriage is unmistakably a quack. We're playing a game of charades. Well, maybe it's a little bit more complicated than that. It's charades but Anastasia calls it Love Charade. The objective of this charade is to completely deceive others, this includes everyone around us, I daresay even the world until both of us achieve our respective goals. Her goal is to find someone who can lead her grandmother's company and fulfill her mother's wishes. That means she wants a husband who can manage her family's business which she personally can't manage by herself.

She could feel them circling outside the box, it was making her more anxious. “What’s inside?” tanong ng isa sa mga groomsmen. Halatang wala silang ideya na magkakaroon ng stripper sa bachelor’s party. “Siraulo ka! Hindi ‘yan para sa ‘yo.” “Are you guys for real? You hired a stripper?” “It’s okay, hindi naman para sa groom ‘yan.” tumawa ang lalaking nagsabi no’n. “I hired it for Cassis.” “Dude, do you have a death wish? You are aware that man despises women.”

Aria was thrilled and promised to check her schedule. Since charity preparations were already underway, I also reached out to a few other women I knew—some single and some simply passionate about helping. I had remembered their previous interest when I casually mentioned hosting a charity event. This one-night date auction for bachelors seemed like the perfect opportunity to involve them.

“Ang bagay kung saan sinabi mo na gusto mo ako?” Nabigla si Charlie sa isang saglit bago sinabi nang kaswal, “Isasantabi muna natin ang bagay na may gusto ka sa akin. Hindi pa huli na pag-usapan ito pagkatapos mo munang masigurado ang trono.” Hindi mapigilan na itanong ni Helena, “Mr. Wade, may kaugnay ba sa trono ang tungkol sa kagustuhan ko sayo?”

She bluntly looked at her watch, indicating that she is already getting bored. Without anything else, I said what I really need from them. "I want to marry your best friend and I need your help to succeed." I said without restraint and a long silence welcome me. "w-what?.." It was Phoebe "I want to marry your best friend and I need your help to succeed." pag uulit ko and this time hindi na katahimikan ang sumalubong saakin kundi malulutong na mura na mula kay Diem at Kleo.

Ang tensiyonado na kapaligiran ay sumiklab na parang isang labanan ang sasabog anumang oras! Tumakbo si Chad sa battlefront para maayos ang lahat. "Hindi ba Miss Harper? Hello! Ako ang assistant ng president ng Sterling Group. Eto ang business card ko. Kasama ko ang batang babae. Patawarin mo ang kanyang wika dahil bata pa siya. Pakiusap, huwag mo nalang pansinin ang sinabi niya." Inabot ni Chad ang kanyang business card sa ginang.

Gesture ko sa aking assistant. "Piper Chapman, one of the youngest triumphant businesswomen in the country." "What do you want, Solaire?" Straight to the point na ganti ko. "Deena." Umakyat agad sa ulo ko ang init sa binigkas niya. Kumuyom ang mga palad ko. "I want her." Ngitngit ang panga kong tila sasabog. "I know you, Piper. Deena was just part of your experiment, self-gratification, self-entertainment. Name it."
