A year have passed.
"I can't believe we are now at your Bachelor Party, my dear cousin..." Carlos' cousin through his mother's side, William, started teasing him while grinning from ear to ear."I can't believe it either. I mean, I'm not complaining, though." Carlos smilingly said in return, as he is obviously elated getting married to Gracie Anne, his one great love."Everyone are so excited for your upcoming wedding. They just can't stop talking about the big event of the year!" William added."I've really picked the right woman, and I'm the luckiest man in the world!" Carlos said in return."You're right about that, Carlos! Anyway, let's just enjoy the party!" William raised his own glass of wine unto the air.Carlos raised his own glass as well, and clinked it with William's glass."Gentlemen... Let's all welcome our special guest today. She's going to set our hearts on fire. She's going to tickle every sensitive neWilliam groaned in return."Honey, whatever it is, can we talk about it tomorrow? My migraine is killing me right now..." he pleaded."No, listen to me, William. You're the one who's killing me right now. Who are you with? And why do I smell women's perfume on you? Answer me!" Celeste interrogated, as she was trying her best to control her anger."For goodness' sake! Just leave me in peace, will you? If you're not going to let me take a rest here, I'll just find some other place----!" William wasn't able to finish what he was going to say when Celeste suddenly interrupted her."You know what, fine! You want me to leave you in peace? Don't worry, I'm going to give you the peace that you need...forever!" Celeste shouted.She quickly went to their bedroom and grabbed her everyday bag and her car keys.Afterwards, she ran towards the door and shut it close...Meanwhile, William wanted to follow her, but he can't stand up bec
"Well, yes. I've been wearing my favorite brand of perfume for a very long time." Juliana answered, while looking confused at William's question.William closed his eyes tightly as he remembers what happened. They had a welcome party at a bar, Juliana got obviously drunk and she's not in a good condition to go home all by herself as she couldn't stand straight on her own, so he didn't have any choice but to escort her and drive her home...And her perfume must've gotten into his clothes, and in the end, Celeste smelled it.Celeste was so jealous and she decided to walk out..."Oh, no! Now I know why she's getting all jealous!" he murmured to himself."Are you saying something, Boss? Do you still need anything?" Juliana asks him, while looking concerned.William looked at her straight into her eyes."Yes, I still need something from you..." he said, while looking dead serious.Juliana puzzily frowned at William,
"Okay, first things first, let's all sit down and order some drinks first. Then, we'll talk." William spoke again.Once their drinks arrived and once the waiter finally left their table, Celeste started to speak again."So, what do you want to talk about?" "Celeste, I am begging you to listen to Juliana. She's going to tell you the truth..." William seriously pleaded at her."Okay, I'm going to listen. And please don't lie to me, alright?" Celeste nodded in return.Meanwhile, Juliana took a deep, calming breath first, then she started talking to Celeste."This is what really happened, Miss Celeste. Boss William and I met at Mr. Carlos' bachelor party. I was an exotic dancer, and I was hired to dance at the party. I was shocked to see Boss William at the party. He and I were classmates back in the University and I used to be his tutor. When we saw each other at the party, we talked, trying to catch up with each other. He generous
As of the moment, William and Celeste are now exchanging their vows..."I will always love you, support you, and care for you, even during your bad hair days, even on your monthly-you-know-what-it-is, and during your hormonal imbalance as well. I will stay by you through good times and bad times. I will never leave you nor forsake you. I will love you until the end of time, Celeste, my love..." William was the first one to say his vows, much to everyone's laughter.Afterwards, it was Celeste's turn to say her vows."William, my heart, body and soul are yours forever. I will laugh with you, scream with you, wrestle with you, have a debate with you, and the list goes on. Whatever you do, I will stay by your side, to infinity and beyond. I love you will all my heart and soul..." she said, as she was trying her best to control her tears...The priest nodded at them in return."Next, we will do the ring exchange ceremony. Please repeat after m
Celine enters the Waldorf Auditorium, where numerous musical and stage plays are held. It was a freezing cold morning of December. As she walks inside the lobby, she smiles as she immediately saw Nate, his co-star in their musical play. Nate is walking towards her with a smile. Celine is currently in a certain musical play production wherein she is the only female lead and she'll be acting alongside with four guys. "Morning, Celine! You look like a squirrel freezing from cold. Are you okay?" Nate worriedly asks Celine. "Good morning, Nate! Oh, don't worry, I can still handle the cold." Celine reassures him. Nate glances at his watch and looks at Celine again. "Well, we can get ourselves a cup of coffee before our call time." he suggested. "Sounds nice. Thanks." Celine agrees, without thinking twice. Nate and Celine are now making their way to the coffee vending machine. While Nate was busy getting themselves coffee from the vending machine, Celine secretly watches him. He's de
After doing warm-up exercises, they finally started with the rehearsals. Nate and Celine are called onstage to practice their scenes together. Once they were finished, Mr. Alford called Nate and Celine to give them his feedback. "The way you deliver your lines is too strong, Celine. Remember, not too strong nor, not so soft. You should say your lines clearly and with conviction. Am I making any sense?" "Yes, sir." I responded, while nodding in return. "And Nate, I think that you were amazing. Your voice perfectly blends well with Celine. My advise to you two, is just to continue practicing. Both of you should practice, even on your free time." Director Alford suggested. "Thank you for your one-on-one talk, sir." Nate thanked their Director. As the both of them started going down the stage, Nate suddenly moved closer to me. Then, he whispered: "Sir Alford is right. We should practice more, just the two if us." he informs Celine. “That's a good idea.” I whispered back, trying
"Good morning, everyone! I'm so sorry for being late!" Nate suddenly made his entrance, while gasping for breath. "You're not that late, Nate. We're still doing warm ups." the old director reassures him. "Thank you, Sir." Nate heaved a sigh of relief. Then afterwards, he walks towards his cast mates to join them. "Celine isn't here yet?" Nate asked everyone, while looking worried. "Yeah. Maybe she overslept?" Nick did a wild guess. Nate's brows met in a curious frown when he saw Gale giving him a challenging stare. He doesn't have any idea on why he's looking at him like that... =========================== Twenty minutes have passed, but Celine is still missing in action. But the Director still went ahead with their rehearsals, as scheduled. "Today, we're going to discuss the list of songs for our musical play. Next week, a pianist will be here so that we can start with your vocal rehearsals." Director Alford informs everyone on what they will be expecting at the rehearsals ne
Celine and Nick finally reaches the small town of Walnut Creek. They were greeted by the gust of winter wind, as if they are being welcomed. "So, where are you going now?" Nick suddenly asks Celine. "I'm going to my parent's farm, which is called the Montecarlo farm. How about you? Where are you going?" Celine asked in return. "Oh, I'm going to my grandparent's place." Nick smilingly answers. "Let's have fun on our holiday vacation, okay?" Celine was ready to say goodbye. "See you at the rehearsals after the holidays." Nick nodded in return. They were about to part their ways when Celine heard someone calling her name. "Celine!" Celine smiled when she saw Sally, and her brother Simon, who both steps out from the pick-up truck. Sally excitedly ran towards Celine. "Sally and Simon! I'm glad to see you again after a long time!" Celine happily greeted her childhood friends. But instead of answering Celine, Sally's attention instantly focused on Nick. "Who is he, Celine?" Sal
