After the wedding, we immediately went to the reception. The reception was in a famous high-end restaurant. Tables and chairs were placed in each corner, the beige colored-tablecloth was placed on each table.
The bouquet of daisies is placed on each table. In a corner were daisies styled in a heart form. On the ceiling placed a cloth styled in a fancy manner. Chandeliers are located high above, slightly lighting the room since the sunlight was entering through the big transparent windows, lighting up the whole reception.
In front was a stage where the newlywed couple was sitting on a chair. They were surrounded by people, giving them hugs, and congratulating them. The soft tune that was playing from the speakers was masked by the chattering, laughing, and giggling of the people around.
Soon after that, I saw my mom heading towards us with her own plate of food. "Snow, do you want chocolate-?” She blinked at me, then looked at Luke from beside me once she noticed him, “Why hello there handsome... You must be Luke, I suppose?" Mom said, sitting right beside me, while Luke was on my left. Luke broke into a grin seeing my mother, "Hi, Mrs. Waterstrings. Yes, I am Luke. It's a pleasure to meet you," He said before complimenting her with, “You’re so beautiful that I thought you were her sister at first.” Ooh, so he’s charming my mother? I didn’t know how mom believed him, who was now laughing along with Luke. When she finally recovered f
I woke up with a smile on my face later that morning. Luke texted me last night, saying that he will take me to the park today. It's a date. It's not Snow. Stop dreaming. Besides, we agreed that we will tag along with Nathan and Caleb. So it's not. It's Sunday and I have no work today. Yawning, I look for my phone to check my social media account. Noticing that there's no difference happening in these past few hours, I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. After doing my morning routine, I went downstairs to eat. "Morning mom!" I greeted her with a big smile on my face. "Morning sweetie," she said. Grabbing utensils, I served my
I looked down and noticed a boy about Nathan's age. He seemed familiar, then I remembered him. He was the boy who came from the shop to order strawberry ice cream last time and he has been one of Nathan’s playmates back at Aunt Maggie’s mansion. It's Caleb. "Oh hey, Caleb!" I said, kneeling down on my knees so that we are on the same level. He looked at my face for a minute before finally smiling at me, "You’re the pretty girl! Hello!" "You knew each other?" Luke stared at us in confusion. "Yup!" exclaimed Caleb. "She served me my ice cream last time at Ein’s shop!" Luke looked at me questioningly, checking if what Caleb said was right. I shrugged.
Is it the moment? Is he going to kiss me? But I'm not ready yet... Just as I felt him so close to me, a voice interrupted us. "Snowwy!" We jolted in surprise and Luke and I broke apart from each other. With my flushed cheeks, I diverted my gaze to the ground. "Snowwy?" Asked Nathan in front of us, confused. I forced myself to raise my chin and looked at my brother, smiling. "There's ice cream over there!" He exclaimed excitedly. "Yup! Buy us some ice cream!" Agreed Caleb. I just look at Luke questioningly, asking if he’ll a
After that “date” with Luke, we stopped by a fast-food restaurant and grabbed a bite there. He apologized, embarrassed that he brought me into a fast food restaurant on our first date. Well, it wasn’t his fault though. It was Nathan and Caleb who forced him to go here. Luke’s plan was originally to eat at a high-end restaurant. “It’s fine, I really enjoyed today Luke,” I said, assuring him. Well, I really don’t mind it. It’s really fine for me. But Luke seems so affected by it as he felt a bit disappointed, saying that he could do better than this. “Then how about you take me on another date? But during that time, that’s the date that I consider as our first.” I suggested, cheering him up. He brightened at this and nodded aggressively, “Yes. Thank you again, Snow.”
"How can you say so?" She asked, glancing at Emma who was now innocently playing games on her phone, she didn't hear us since she's too preoccupied. "Well, I saw him constantly glancing at her," I said and shrugged. When in fact, I always caught Leroy staring at Hannah. Hmm, this is just a small tease, and see what’s going to be Hannah’s reaction... "What!" She shouted and the people stared at us. We apologized to them before continuing our conversation. "What?" Emma was staring at us innocently once she noticed we were talking about something. Then I began laughing at the priceless look of Hannah, looking at Emma with a sad expression. "What's wrong with her?" Emma asked me, dumbfounded.
"Snow...." My mom said in a sing-song voice when I arrived at the kitchen to have breakfast after a few days. "Hmmm?" I replied sleepily then sat down beside Nathan. It was a Monday morning. I was half-asleep, my eyes half-closed. My hair was sticking in different directions. Scratching my head, I lean my head on my arm, yawning. "Guess what?" I heard my mom asking. I could see from my line of vision that mom has a big smile on her face, a sign that she'll tell me something important. "What?" I asked sleepily. "It's the Anastolgia High! The results arrived this morning." I was scratching my neck when it hit me. My eyes instantly opened and I jolted awake, almost falling
As usual, I find it cringy and I don't know if it is even possible, but my face flushed even more. I hate how he always manages to make me blush, even through a phone. My heart warmed and the butterflies in my stomach appeared. I open my mouth to say something, but I don't know what to say. I was speechless. Then I heard laughter from the other line. Luke's laugh was so infectious that I also laughed. "Did you see what I did there?" He said in between laughter. "Yeah yeah. It's sweet." I said. Not wanting to be defeated, I formed a plan in my mind and said, "But that won't change me, not approving to be your girlfriend." His laughter died down. "Why do you always say that? Did you know t
Thank goodness I managed to convince Eion to stop by the reception after making out with him in the car.The reception was at Hudson’s villa, where Eion’s childhood friend, Mario was serving. I spotted him and smiled at him. “Glad you’re still working here, Mario.”He bowed a bit, “Even I’m amazed why Eion didn’t fire me. Anyways, I’m wishing you a happy marriage, Ms. Snow.” He then whispered, “I knew you two would end up with each other.” He said with a wink, and before I could even reply, he walked away.“What was that?” Asked Eion when he caught up to me as he was parking the car earlier.“Oh, nothing. It’s Mario being Mario.” I replied.
Eion started his vow. “Do you remember the very first day that we met?”It was not the usual love at first sight moment. I’ve hated you, not knowing that it was love that I was feeling. We started out as enemies and now, look at us. You have become my lover, my companion, and my best friend. There's no one else I'd want to build a life with. I get to have you by my side, my love, and my wife, for eternity.” Saying that he paused. He was looking at my eyes as he said that. He didn’t have any copy, he then continued,“You have made me the happiest man in the world today by agreeing to share your life with me. I promise to cherish and respect you. I promise to care for you and protect you. I promise to comfort you and encourage you. I promise to be with you for all of eternity.
Reaching the venue, I stayed in the car as the organizers of our wedding checked everything first before we started.I looked at the busy crowd sitting on the chairs. We only have a hundred guests for today as I don’t want to invite a lot.Besides, I don’t have a lot of friends. I lost touch with my high school friends the moment we migrated here. Also, mom is also not that close with dad’s relatives as they both ran away from their home when they had me.And I can’t blame her for that.So I only have mom, Nathan, and some of my classmates from Anastolgia High like Ember. So it’s mostly Eion’s family and relatives as his guests. I saw Luke and Hannah greeting the guests and making sure everyone was comfortable.
“I really didn’t expect you, out of the three of us, to be the first one to get married, Snow.” Said Emma as she applied some powder on her face with her makeup brush. “Oh, are you jealous that she is the first one to be married out of us, or are you jealous because you want to get married next, Emma?” Hannah suggested as she applied lipstick on her lips. Emma just rolled her eyes, “Well, I didn't expect that you, out of all of us, to be the first one to get pregnant, Hannah.” She fired back, pointing at Hannah’s big tummy. Hannah is now seven months pregnant with Leroy’s child. Even I was surprised at the sudden news. I hadn’t expected it. Hannah chuckled at that and winked at me, “This is your time gi
Just then, Eion stopped and stood up. A waiter gave him a guitar and he cleared his throat.“I never sing, Snow, but for tonight, it’s only you and me. I’ll sing for you.”I gasped at that. “Wait, you’re really going to sing?”“Yes. I had been practicing for the past months. In the Philippines, did you know that it was their practice to sing your heart out with a guitar and go to the house of the person you are going to woo. It’s called harana.” He informed me. His hands were tuning the guitar and he was trembling a bit. I flashed him a smile and gave him a thumbs up to encourage him.He nodded, “It may not be your house and we're on a ship right now but... I’m doing it. I hope you’
SNOW’S POV“Snow, a delivery was sent to you,” Mom said as soon as I woke up. Grabbing it and opening it, it was flowers and chocolates, with a handwritten note that I know all too well.It was Eion’s.Reading it, I smile at what he just said inside the note.“To my beautiful snow in my winter heart, this is for you. I haven’t forgotten our anniversary.”this has been his tactic for the past 4 years every time it's our anniversary. Then, my phone beeped and Eion texted me.Did you like the flowers and chocolates? That’s just the teaser. We’ll have dinner later at 7pm. Don’t be late. - your strawberry addict robot
4 YEARS LATERAUNT MAGGIE’S POV“Justin!” I called out, huffing and climbing up the stairs. I turned to his nanny and asked, “He still hasn't eaten his breakfast?”“Yes ma'am. He’s been running around for the whole morning. I apologize.” His nanny replied.I breathed in and out, “Let’s stop chasing him for now. I’m sure you'll get tired soon and eat.” I said, dismissing his tired nanny. II walked towards the dining table where my husband was sitting and having his breakfast. “Honey, can you please call for Justin? His nanny has been tired of taking care of him these days. He has to eat his breakfast.”“Yes, honey.&rd
Emma’s POVWell, I trust Eion,” Snow replied to my question as she checked the time with her wristwatch. Sighing, she stood up and grabbed her bag. “I gotta go now.”I just rolled my eyes at her, “Yeah yeah, go to your strawberry addict robot now and leave your bitter and lonely friends.”She just chuckled at me and bid her goodbyes, with Hannah encouraging her also. “Go get your man, Snow.” She winked and left the ice cream shop.With Snow leaving, Hannah and I were left alone now. I turned to her, “What should we do now? Our friend just left and I’m bored.” I complained to her.It looks like Hannah was not hearing a wo
He turned off the lights. His lips continued on doing wonders on mine. This kiss was different from any of our last time. He trailed down kisses on my neck, down to my collarbone.It’s almost like he wanted to take a taste at everything, every inch of me. I couldn’t help but moan out his name, “Ugh. Eion.”And I covered my mouth from saying that, feeling my cheeks getting hotter in embarrassment.Geez, did I really…just moaned?I bit my lip, looking up at him as he stared into my soul, piercing me with his emerald eyes. He gulped, almost like in an agony, “Say that again. Call my name again, Snow.”I did as he told me, “Eion.”
