PROLOGUE
Everything is ready. This is it. This is the day that Rina Montecruz is going to be Mrs. Padilla. This is Rina’s most awaited moment, the day they would become one.
Rina is currently inside Lambert’s yatch. She slept here last night… and now, she is fully dressed on her wedding gown.
"Best wishes."; Paula greeted her blandly on her cellphone.
"Thank you, Paula."; Rina smiled wholeheartedly.
“Well, take care.”, Paula answered. Rina wondered what Paula was trying to say but she brushed it off instead.
"Thanks Paula, you too.”, Rina answered and there was a pause of silence.
"Farewell."; Paula finally said then turned off her cellphone. Rina thought, Paula had loved Lambert dearly too, like her . If Paula and her didn’t loved the same guy, maybe, just maybe they would’ve been the best of friends.
Paula is a nice girl because in the end, she still wishes me the best… even though the man she loved is marrying me, she still manages to give us her blessings., Rina thought. She looked at her reflection in the mirror again. She is so happy and this joy she truly felt is evident on her aura. Rina noticed that her make-up artist keeps on checking her watch.
“Are you in a hurry, Miss?”, Rina curiously asked her. The make-up artist was surprised, she seemed to be nervous.
"Uhmn… Ma’am can I go ahead first? My son has asthma and he is suffering from it right now, I am quite worried.”, she answered. Rina smiled and nodded.
"Yes miss, it’s okay. “, Rina added. The woman hadn’t wasted any of her time as she hurriedly ran and left the yatch. After few moments, Rina noticed that the woman had left her make-up kit.
"She must’ve been in a hurry. She left her kit---“, Rina was cut off when her phone suddenly rang.
"Lambert!"; Rina answered excitedly.
“Are you ready?”, Lambert on the other line. Even though the line was quite choppy, Rina still smiled. She slowly walk her way outside the yatch balcony so she would get a stronger phone signal.
"I'm kind of nervous but so happy!"; Rina laughed as she imitates Lambert’s accent. Lambert laughed too. Rina felt the butterflies in her stomach when she tripped on her wedding gown.
“AAAhhhh!!!”, Rina yelled as she held on the railings.
What a worst time to be clumsy!, Rina thought as she curses herself for being too clumsy.
"Hello?Rina?Rina?"; Lambert was extremely worried on the other line.
Rina was trying to pull herself up, however just after few moments, the yatch suddenly explode. Lambert heard the explosion from the phone just before it went out of coverage.
"RINA!!What was that!?Hello!Rina!!"; Lambert nervously yelled on his phone, still hoping someone would answer on the other line.
"Why are you yelling, iho?"; it was Lambert’s mom.
“So, where is Rina now?”,it was Rina’s mother.
“What did Rina said, Lambert?”, it was Rina’s father. They all went towards him when they heard him shouting.
“Mom, Mother, Father… Rina, I think Rina’s in danger! I heard an explosion! I need to get there!"; Lambert said, he was in panic even though no one undertood what he was trying to say.
"Wa-wait, son where are you going?!"; Rina’s father asked and he tried to catch up with him but Lambert left in a hurry.
In a blink of an eye, the supposed-to-be peaceful wedding ended up in a grim tragedy.
