Michael thought that it is because of what had happened before, Zoey isn't answering his messages. He created a plan on how he can make her his girl once more. Despite what he did in the past he still shamelessly wants Zoey back.
He remembered the day when Zoey found out that he was still with America. When he saw her she was standing behind the slightly open door of his dressing room with tears falling on her rosy cheeks while holding her phone that was ringing. He felt devastated after that.
People say that he is a dumb jerk who threw out a diamond for an ordinary pebble. Or maybe he just wanted to taste a new flavor during that time. But no one knows the truth. But for him, Zoey is his one and only great love.
After a long drive, Shane and Zoey arrived at the hotel. One bellboy brought them to the suite while enumerating the other facilities and amenities that they can use while staying in the hotel. Shane knocked the door three times after that, a petite lady with chinita eyes opened the door. They were welcomed by a party pop and a big bear hug from her.
The party was held in a family suite with three rooms; the living room was decorated with peach and black paper flowers, banderitas, and balloons all over the floor. There was a golden balloon with letters that spelled out "Bachelorette's Party" hanging on the glass wall of the room. On the other side, one could see the lively city lights of the metro.
Everyone was wearing a white top and denim shorts. Sweet and Lisa invited their other friends as well as Shane's college pals. All in all, there were fifteen people excluding the bride-to-be who was wearing a 'The Bride' sash and a crown.
As for the balikbayan, maid of honor, Sweet put an angel halo on Zoey's head and gave her a 'Prodigal Maid of Honor' sash.
"Hey, why do I have to wear this?" Zoey said while pointing her sash to Lisa.
"We've decided to have your welcome party as well tonight, so no buts for you lady." Since they didn't have a chance to pick her up at the airport, they had decided to include her welcome party to tonight's event.
Since the bride has arrived, the party started. The organizers separated the party into two parts; first was wholesome and the other was R 18. The wholesome part consisted of games that they used to play when they are having sleepovers and parties. Each game had a coupon as a reward. Before they reached the second portion of the party, everyone presented their parting from singlehood gifts to Shane. There were guests that gifted her some pairs of lingerie, and others gave R 18 toys as they said that they will be useful during the first night of her wedding.
Shane's face was as red as a ripe tomato because of the embarrassment she experienced due to her friends. Someone said, "Shane in 6 days you'll be a wife to someone but you still get shy about this matter. Man up girl. Hahahahaha!" This caused everyone to laugh.
Shane was indeed the first one to get married in her circle of friends but her friends were more experienced than her in terms of sexualities. Even Zoey shared laughter while teasing Shane.
The room was brought to silence when two guys entered the room. Both of them wearing black latex briefs with a face mask and a rose between their teeth. When the music changed into a sensual one, the male strippers started dancing while walking towards the bride-to-be.
Shane hadn't seen a man's body before and because of that, her eyes bulged like they were about to explode. She covered her eyes with her two hands while turning her body against the direction of the male strippers. The other ladies inside the room kept on screaming due to their excitement except for Zoey. Zoey didn't know which one to cover her eyes, her mouth or her ears?
Zoey was shocked after seeing the two strippers grinding their bodies towards her friend. She thought that she was immune to seeing an opposite sex's body because of her older brother who always wondered inside their house with only his boxer shorts and naked torso.
After the ladies expressed their excitement towards their actions, one of the strippers bites Shane's left ear which instantly turns red. He puts the rose between his teeth behind her bitten ear and whispered, "It's alright baby."
Shane didn't know what to do. She even felt a little hand on her shoulder, and a soft voice enters her other ear saying, "This is our main gift to you."
When Shane heard this, she immediately turned her head to that direction and uttered "You!" Her words got stuck within her throat because after releasing her hands that covered her eyes, the male stripper threw a lifebuoy on her body. It trapped her hands beside her body which allowed the stripper to sit on her lap.
