"Eiii ayaw tumingin sa salamin! Iba nagagandahan eh!!" tudyo sakin ng pinsan kong si Ate Ten matapos akong maayusan.
Tama siya.
Ayoko talagang titigan ang sarili ko pag may ayos ako. Nakakataba kasi yon ng puso. Para bang laging gandang ganda ako sa sarili ko pag nag-aayos ako when infact, dapat slight lang at tamang confidence lang.
Today ang kasal ng isa ko pang pinsang si Ate Thea. Nabuntis siya ng soon to be mister na niyang si Kuya Eron. And I'm nervous.
First time na lang uling naging abay ako sa isang kasal.
My last time was ages ago, batang bata pa. And today is real different.
Matanda na ako. I'm sixteen.
And I'm gonna be the maid of honor Holy Guacamole! I don't even know what to do!!
And my partner! Oh my! I don't know him!! We're strangers for Pete's sake!
At gaya ng inexpect ko. My day for me is an epic fail! I don't know what to do. Ngangangapa ako ng gagawin! Nakinig sa mahaba, katakot takot, at kaantok antok na sermon ng pari.
This is also the first time for me to attend a really serious Catholic wedding since I'm a born again christian. I never thought a wedding can be this boring.
And I glance at him...
Yes... him...
Yung best man na kapartner ko sa pagpapapirma ng pirma para sa mga ninong at ninang ng kasal na ito.
Holy he's handsome!!! And cute!! Just a bit snob.
I think I'm crushing on him! Wait?!!
Me?! Crushing on someone I just met?
Ridiculous!
"Ano bagang course mo? Saan ka napasok?"
"Sa Capellan. Automotive ang course ko"
damn his voice is good!
And he's a senior highschool student?!
So maybe he's 17 or 18!
Bit older than me. I guess.
So yeah, nagkakapaan kami ng gagawin sa kasal na ito. We're just... real strangers.
But I really want to have a picture with this cute guy!
Swear I'll take a shot with him after the wedding!
"Uyy picture tayo! Wala pa tayong picture eh!! Teka... wala ang cellphone ko ehh"
For a minute, I was stunned.
Kinulbit niya ako and he even wanted to take a picture with me!
Him! The stranger I'm attracted to... secretly.
"Ahmm sige mamaya lang ha! Magpipicture pa kami" I said to him coz irita na talaga ang photographer at pipicturan na talaga kaming kamag-anak ni Ate Thea hahahaha!
After three shots. Dali kong kinuha phone ni Inay since opportunity is here hahahaha! I really do want a souvenir photo with him!!
Lumapit ako sa kanya at nagpapicture. After a shot aalis na dapat ako...
"Uyy isa pa. Para sa laminated naman! Pa picture tayo!" so we did. This time s photographer na talaga ng wedding.

"may nakita ako" tudyo ni Ate Thea.
Eiii kinikilig nako!!
Kahit kanina sa sasakyan ng isa ko pang cousin si Ate Thema.
"Crushie crush ka ata nong partner mo ahh hahaha"
"Wala po yon, nagpapicture lang po" pero eeeiii deep in me sasabog na ang utot ko!! Hahahaha.
"Ate nakatingin sa'yo yong lalaki!" asa reception na kami.
Galit at inis na kapatid ko. May nakatingin daw kasi saking lalaki.
"Sino?"
"Yong kapartner mo!"
what?! really?
I flinched. Naalala ko nanaman memories last five days.
Panandaliang saya at kilig lang pala.
Isang araw na landian lang.
Wala na nga pala uli kaming connection uli ni song.
Ni Best Man.
~ Au revoir ~
