Arranged Marriage

The Finale

Sander- i'll take you home......

Me- We should take a taxi.. You're drunk... You can't drive...

Iniwan na lamang muna ni Sander ang sasakyan nito sa bar.. At sa loob ng taxi ay wala kaming imikan.. Nauna na akong bumaba at ni hindi ako lumingon at nagpaalam sa kanya..

So the party came..

Our family is first on the list of invited guests..

Syempre, this will also be the announcement of my pre-engagement with Sander.. But i dont think matutuloy pa iyon because i already came up with a decision na ayokong makasal kay Sander..

After the kiss last night, napagtanto kong si MADDY yata ang gusto ni Sander at hindi ako bilang ako..

I know this will cause a big scandal in the family pero ayoko nang magpakasal kay Sander de Lambert..

I wore my long black tube fitted gown..

I curled my long hair and let it loose and put a silver butterfly pin on the left portion..

I paired my gown with a black purse and silver stilletos.......

From my place, nakita ko sa hindi kalayuan si Sander...

Bakit napaka gwapo niya kahit sa malayo.???

At bakit parang amoy na amoy ko pa rin ang pabango at mabangong hininga niya.??

Parang hindi mapakali si Sander..

Mukhang may hinahanap ito..

Ako ba ang hinahanap niya.??? I mean I'm pretty sure na ako bilang Maddy ang hinahanap niya..

Pero kahit sino man sa katauhan na iyon ay ayokong magpakita kay Sander.. Naaalala ko lamang ang halik na pinagsaluhan namin..

I sip the margarita in my hand..

I need this to calm myself before the party starts..

I was about to refill my goblet when someone spoke behind me........

Sander- Oh there you are.!

Me- ay palaka.!

Sander- 😂😂😂 mukha ba akong palaka.?

Me- kayo po pala Sir.!!!!

Sander- do you know where Shey is.?? I've been looking everywhere but she's nowhere to be found..

Hindi mo talaga makikita ang hinahanap mo.!!

Tanga naman nito..

Paano mu hahanapin ang taong kaharap mo na mismo at kinakausap mo pa.??? Naku naman Sander......

Me- ahhhh... I think we need to talk about her Sir..

I really need to tell him the truth........

Sander- I really need to talk to her now Maddy.. May kailangan siyang malaman....

Me- sir, alam na niya.. Alam na niyang ayaw mong magpakasal sa kanya.. alam na niyang sukang-suka at diring-diri kayo sa kanya.. Alam na niyang kahit saang anggulo ng pagmumukha niya ay kinasusuklaman mo.. Alam na niyang kahit noon pa man ay napaka-pangit niya sa paningin mo..

I dont know why my tears run down like they have their own mind..

Napakasakit palang ibalik sa balintataw ko ang mga panglalait noon ni Sander..

Even if she changed, Sander would still be the old Sander..

Wala pa rin itong humpay sa pang-aalipusta ng pagmumukha niya..

Sander- Maddy wait.!!!!!!!!

But i didn't give him a glance anymore..

Tama na ang pagkukunwari..

Tapos na ang role playing na ito..

This time, right in this party, I'm gonna be my ownself, the heiress of LaCarte..

The party started...

People are raising their goblet glasses full of wines.. Cheers.!!!!!!

BonRio de Lambert- Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to my party.. But this isnt just my party alone.. Please raise ur glasses for my UnicoHijo Sander De Lambert.!!!!!

Sander stood in front of the crowd.. At nagsimula itong magsalita.............

Sander- i didn't believe in ARRANGED MARRIAGE........

People began to whisper..

Especially French guests..

Mukhang sisirain ni sander ang gabing ito........

Sander- I still want to marry because of LOVE not because of some family tradition.. My parents wanted me to marry the rich french family friend's daughter.. But i wanted to marry someone who's been a part of me ever since.. I wanted to marry her because i love her.....

Ouchhhhhh.. harap-harapang sakit naman nito...

I turned my back to leave and did not hear anymore of his hurtful words..

Sander- yes, i wanted to marry Maria Sheivanna Lacarte.. I have loved her ever since we were in highschool.. I love pestering her.. i love teasing and irritating her.. i love everything about her.. And Yes, I'm marrying the same woman my parents chose for me.. I'm gonna marry her for love and not for any form of tradition..

I was about to leave the place when the spotlight turned right into me..

People are all staring at me.. Amusent are in their eyes.. My knees are trembling..

Sander said he LOVED and still loves me.!!!!!!

But I know Sander is more surprised.. He isn't prepared for this introduction..

My Dad took my hand and led me to Sander....

Papa- Sander, ingatan mo ang anak namin huh.. Mahal na mahal namin yan.....

He has that poker face again.. I didn't know what to say.. Pero parang gusto kong tumawa na lang..

Me- Yes Sir.?? surprised.??? Shookt.?? Or inlove.?

He leaned closer and whispered right on my ear....

.

Sander- tangna Shey.......

Me- dont make a scene Sander.. we are at your Dad's party..

Sander- but I love making a scene with you Maria Sheivanna..

He pulled me closer and started kissing me.. The kiss is slow but meaningful....

Sander- i didnt like you as Maddy.. because i already loved you ever since we were teenagers.. Kaya ko sinabing hindi ka magugustuhan ni Brandon because i only want you for myself Shey.. noon pa lang mahal na kita.. I was so jealous that time with Brandon.. Kaya kita nilait lait para mawalan ka ng confidence to face Brandon.. Because im so selfish when it comes to you Shey...

Me- but i heard you talking to your dad that you refused to marry me..

Sander- ofcourse ofcourse.!! Because I don't like the idea of arranged marriage when i can get you marrying me for love.. i know i can..

Me- wow, sounds very confident.!!!

Sander- but like i said, i don't want to marry you in 2years..

Me- then ill go.......

I pushed him and turned away.. But he held my arm and faced me.....

Sander- i want to marry you tomorrow.. I can't wait anymore years.. I don't need to marry you for an arranged marriage but i want to marry you for love.. because i love you..

Now that caught me off guard..

Bakit ba ang hilig nitong mag on the spot question.???

Natatameme ako lagi....

Sander- now i want to believe that SILENCE MEANS YES..

Me- 😂😂😂 Yes yes yes... yes Sir.!!!! Ill marry you Prince Sander de Lambert.!!!!!!!!

Sander- sabihin mo munang mahal mo rin ako..

Me- I can't breathe....

Sander- tangna, Shes Dating The Gangster yan eh.!!!! 😂😂

Now its payback time.. instead of answering his question, i answered him through my kiss.. The deep and sensual kind of kiss.. Iyong naramdaman kong napahigpit ang kapit niya sa mga balakang ko.. iyong naramdaman ko ang matigas niyang umbok sa gitna 😂😂😂😂😂

Sander- s**t Sheivanna... you're making me....

Me- sssshhhh... i love you...

Saka ko siya giniya sa gitna ng event hall..

I took the mic and said,

Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm marrying Sander de Lambert very very soon.! Please enjoy the night everyone.. thank you..

The crowd applauded and both families cheered.. While me and Sander are kissing in the corner..............
