Xyna
AFTER that scene, I narrate again.
“After that day. Vince and I decided that we get married as soon as possible, so we decided that our marriage will be next month. At the first week, we start planning, and we decided that it will gonna be a beach wedding. It will be held at one of Vince's resorts. We also started making invitations and list of bridesmaids, maid of honor, etc. And after two weeks, I'm now taking a measure for my wedding gown. Because you will witness Margaux and Vince's wedding—our wedding, just 2 weeks from now” I narrated.
“Good! Let's move on tomorrow, go straight to Fiona's Gown Shop tomorrow. We're only until lunch time, so the leading lady, her mommy and Mona should be there by eight o'clock. And for the others, you can not go, because it's almost only the scene of Margaux's (Xyna), measuring for the gown. Then, on monday again” Director Benjamin said.
Because I requested that if possible we only stay until lunch time because I will take that witch to the airport tomorrow. He agreed because we really only stayed until lunchtime tomorrow. It will just measure the gown and our wedding will be the next day— Vince and Margaux's.
That witch will be going to sleep in my house tonight, iright? Then the next day she will take her leave, my life will be calm again. But, somehow I will miss her. Of course, she'd been my bestfriend for so long until now.
But, at least now someone has added somehow, someone I can also consider as my friend...— Dwyne.

Agatha was already inside my house when I arrived.
I saw her sitting comfortably on the sofa but she immediately stand the moment she saw me.
“Yes! At last, you're home! I waited for so long, huhu. By the way, I cooked my specialty today— Pork Adobo!” she vigorously said.
She led me to the dining room table and start preparing the food. While I sat down on the seat I usually seating on.
Adobo is one of my favorite food too. I ate any kind of adobo, like Chicken and Pork Adobo, and anything related to adobo.
When she finished, she sat down in front of me again.
“By the way, my flight tomorrow's at one” she said.
I'm sure that the taping will end just on time. That's a relief. I didn't know what hour is her flight, she forgot to tell me.
“Hmm, I'll send you to the airport tomorrow” I said with a blank expression.
“Really?!” she said and gape.
‘What's so surprising about that?’
I rolled my eyes at her. “Are you deaf? I said—” she interrupted what I was supposed to say. “I mean, don't you have a taping for the movie?”
“We're only half day. So I might be able to get home here at eleven o'clock in the morning if it won't take many takes. We should be there earlier than the exact time of your flight” I said and drink the water.
“Finally! The legendary Xyna Alegre finally shows her caring side, eh?” she taunts me.
I glared at her. “Alright, I changed my mind. You will go there alone—”
“H-Hey! I'm just teasing you! You're no fun, Xy!” she pouted.
Real talk, why do people always pout? Didn't they know that they look like a stupid duck?
“Tss, don't pout. You look like a duck” I snorted.
She didn't say anything and just smiled at me then we ate quietly again.
When I looked at Agatha again, she looks problematic? I think she was preoccupied with the thought of how will she approach him.
When we finished eating she offered to wash the dishes. I just let it go.
I lay down on the sofa and took the pocket book I just bought. The title of the story is 'Eternally (Just Be Mine)'. Based on its plot, it was about a girl named Bernadette who experienced heartbreak, when the man she loves chose her cousin — Lizbeth to be it's wife.
What a pitiful woman. Imagine, the man you love the most, chose your cousin instead of you to be his wife, that was so fucking painful.
I started to read the chapter 1. And all I can say is Bernadette is such a martyr, imagine she didn't leave their place, the moment that the man she loves chooses her cousin — Lizbeth. If I am her, I will surely punch that moron to his face, how could he broke that woman's heart.
“Reading a book?” Agatha asked. Finally, she's done after 15 fucking minutes. It even took me to read the full Chapter 2 before she finished!
But, obviously? Agatha's questions are always making me want to punch her in the face. Stupid! She's always stating the obvious! She has eyes and she sees what I'm doing, but why is she still asking? Like what the hell?! Is she blind or something? Or she's just born as stupid?
By the way, I love reading pocket books even if it is all fiction. Why? It helps me to forget what the reality is, atleast for a while. And reading is what I do whenever I felt alone, numb, and empty. Reading almost made me grew up and mature. The one who supposed to be the one who must making me feel happiness, was the one who made me feel empty and useless. So, reading was always my source of happiness. Reading is my stress relieve.
In other words, if for other people alcohol is the answer to temporarily forget their problem, mine is reading. I haven’t tried drinking alcohol just because I want to forget my problems for a little while. I only drink when I'm on the mood.
“Yeah,” I simply replied to her. I don't want to waste any more energy to say more words because I might smack her face. And also, I'm busy reading.
“What's the title?” she asked.
“Eternally (Just Be Mine)” I simply answered.
“I already finished that!” she bragged to me.
“So? Nobody's asking” I said sarcastically. “Hehehe, peace”
I shook my head and snorted. “Tch!”
As I finished the chapter 3, I closed the pocket book.
“You will sleep in the guest room” I said before placing the book on the glass table.
When I looked at her she seemed to have something to say, but she was hesitant.
Eventually she said it. “C-Can I sleep in your room?”
My forehead creased. “And why is that? You'll make me sleep in the guest room?! No way!” I irritably said.
She sighed. “Slow. What I mean is let's sleep together in your room. You know I'll miss you, Xy. Just want to, you know cuddle with my friend!”
“All right! As if I have a choice, I know it won't stop you from sleeping in my room even if I say no, right?”
“Ofcourse! Thank you, Xy!” she said happily and immediately went up to MY room..
I shook my head and went up to the second floor where my room was. On the first floor is the living room and kitchen, there is a room on the first floor that I made a basement.
There are three bedrooms and three bathrooms here in my house. One bathroom per room, in my bedroom, in the guest room and the last one is in the kitchen. There's a third floor for the music room, I've only been able to play instruments in the music room once because I'm very busy to even play a piano even once.
When I entered my room I caught Agatha sitting on my bed.
“I'll take a half bath first, you behave here” I said and took a red pajamas, before going to the comfort room for a half-bath.
I turned on the bathtub faucet and filled it with a body soap for it to cause bubbles. I took off my clothes and hung them.
I also tied my hair up.
Soon the water in the bathtub filled. I immediately soaked.
I groaned because of the coldness of the water. It loses the heat and stickiness of my body due to sweat.
A few more minutes passed before I decided to go up to the bathtub. I threw away the water and then rinsed.
I wiped my body and put on my pajamas. I also removed my ponytail and combed my hair, then went out of the bathroom.
And I caught Agatha holding a familiar notebook.
I immediately realized what it was. My diary! How did she find it out!
I immediately went towards her and quickly took my diary.
“Don't read this” I warned her.
“S-Sorry” she said, I just nodded saying that I already apologized her.
“Tch! Let's go to sleep, it's already late” I said and go to my bed and lie down. The same goes for her.
I was so exhausted that I fell asleep immediately.
