CHAPTER 9

A few minutes later, after Marcus and Ayla arrived at the reception, dinner was served. As much as Ayla wanted to eat her favorite desserts, she can`t. Not with this amount of people around her. Bowei on the other hand, surprised her, she can`t believe her eyes. Bowei is eating slowly and with a little food on his plate. He really knows when to put his glutton self aside.

Habang kumakain sila at ang mga bisita, may kumakanta para aliwin sila. Maganda ang boses nang babaeng kumakanta at nararamdaman mo talaga na ang bawat liriko na lumalabas sa kaniyang bibig ay galing sa puso. Alam na alam niya kung paano kunin ang atensyon ng mga tao para makinig sa kanya.

Pagkatapos nilang kumain ay nagbigay ng speech si Penelope at Michael, ganoon din si Lucine at Gilbert para sa kanilang mga anak na si Aster at Aidan. Nagbigay din si Ayla, Marcus at iba pang malalapit na kaibigan ni Aidan at Aster. 

Kahit gaano kasaya ang reception, hindi iyon maramdaman ni Ayla lahat.
