Hindi nawawala ang ngiti sa labi ni Amethyst habang nag lalakad sa aisle she's holding a bouquet of flower in her hand admiring the man standing at the end of the aisle. Hindi pa naman nila kasal pero parang totoo na ang practice na ginagawa nila, they want everything to be perfect specially her mother, sabi nga nito na minsan lang sa buhay mg isang babae ang ikasal so it should be Grand and memorable ang Mama at kakambal niya ang nag asikaso ng lahat ng kailangan, from the gown to her shoes.
"Amethyst walk straight!" Wika ni Keana.
Amethyst rolled her eyes, minsan ay panira din ng moment ang taklesa niyang ina. Maiiyak na sana siya ngunit nawala iyon ng sigawan siya ng ina.
"Ano ka ba anak, your wedding should be perfect! Baka matalisod ka sa actual na kasal mo nakakahiya yon!"
"Mama kahit gumulong pa ako ikakasal parin ako. It doesn't matt—"
"It does matter kaya umayos ka!"
Amethyst rolled her eyes muli siyang bumalik sa bungad at nag simulang mag lakad and finally after a hundred tries her mother was satisfied. Pagod siyang naupo sa upuan sinandal niya ang likod at hinilot ang balikat then she felt someone holding his legs massaging it.
"What are you doing?" She said smiling.
"Giving you a massage, you need one." Aiden said chuckling. "Mukhang pinagod ka ni Mama, she just want to make sure that everything is perfect."
Amethyst nodded, tinignan niya ang inang aligaga parin at hindi mapakali bago ngumiti, they are rich enough to hire someone but her mother wants to be hands on maski si Emerald ay hindi nag papahuli.
"Alam ko..." She said and lean to hug her soon to be husband. "Marami daw reporter sa labas, hirap talagang maging famous."
Aiden rolled his eyes, he doesn't want an attention at all sadya lang na kilala sa business industry ang kanilang pamilya.
"Mrs Amethyst Chen... I can't wait to hear that,"
"Me too, then after the wedding let's cuddle and make a lots of babies so Sam won't get bored."
"How many babies do you want Mrs Chen?"
"Just one, let's make another one mahirap kaya ang manganak." Irap niya.
"Okay just one..." Aiden said, umuklo ito para halikan ang kanyang labi. "I Love you..."
"Ilang beses mo na bang sinabi yan sa loob ng isang araw?" Natatawang wika ni Amethyst. "I Love you too..."
Nang makauwi sila sa bahay ay halos kaladkarin na lang ni Amethyst amg kanyang katawan papasok, Sam came running towards them holding a piece of paper.
"Momma! Bukas na yung family day! My teacher said to give it to you."
Amethyst smile, kahit pagod ay binuhat niya ang anak. It was her hobby, kahit pagod siya sa trabaho ay bubuhatin niya parin ang anak because time fly so fast and in a blink of an eye Sam will be a young lad too.
"You ace your exam?" Proud na proud niyang wika. "Momma is so proud mana ka sakin."
"Really?" Aiden said, kakapasok lang nito ng bahay. "As far as I know I'm the smart one here."
Amethyst rolled her eyes.
"Edi ikaw na Dr Chen."
Aiden chuckled lumapit siya sa mag ina, he hugs them from the back making himself comfortable.
"I Love you and Sam."
"Aww I love you too Daddy." Sam said in a happy tone. "
Amethyst phone ring, binigay niya muna si Sam kay Aiden bago sinagot ang tawag.
"Hello?"
"It's me.."
Amethyst rolled her eyes when she realize who is she talking too.
"Paano mo na laman ang number ko?"
"I have my ways, I need to talk to you."
"No I don't have time—"
"It's about the paternal test Aiden won't answer my calls so I called you."
Amethyst sighed and look at Aiden and Sam napangiti na lang siya ng makita ang pag haharutan ng dalawa. She will end this b***h, gusto niya na ng tahimik na buhay.
"Tell me where to?"

Amethyst sat infront of Tess sipping to her cup of tea, she doesn't want to meet her so unexpectedly but Tess is too annoying and decided to meet her in person. She's been waiting for her to speak but she just won't and kept looking at her.
"What do you want?" She said impatiently. "I have tons of things to do, can you hurry up?"
Tess smirk, she took her cup and sip then she took out an envelope putting it on the table.
"What is that?"
"Why don't you look?" She said. "I'm sure you'll love what's inside."
Hindi kumibo si Amethyst she took the envelope in her hand, binuksan niya ito at nilabas ang laman. She keep her poker face while reading the whole sheet of paper indicating that Aiden is 99.9 percent that the kid is Aiden's son, Amethyst chuckled and look at her with her bored looking eyes.
"Are you saying that my fiancee had a son with you?"
"I thought you're smart, Go and read the result." Mapang uyam na wika ni Tess. "Aiden is my child's father and you should accept that fact."
Amethyst rolled her eyes, hinawakan niya ang papel at dahan dahan pinunit sa gitna.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Tess said roaring in anger. "You b***h!"
"I can be a b***h if you want too, If this is a hundred percent legit I will accept it wholeheartedly. I will ask Aiden to take the full custody of the kid because I'm sure you are not eligible for his needs..."
"W-what?"
Amethyst smirk.
"I can be a bad b***h if you want me too, I can be a monster in everyone's eye s to protect what is mine. You took my happiness once and I won't let you twice, the world can hate me for being a cruel b***h and I won't even care. I will protect my family and if it means of getting rid of you I will."
Hindi nakaimik si Tess, Amethyst was never fond to her eversince hindi niya alam ang tumatakbo sa utak nito her face is cold and her eyes is raging in anger.
"Pick your choice, we will conduct a DNA results even after you showed me this piece of paper. And if you are fooling us by falsifying a document I will make sure that you won't see the outside world again. Don't try me Tess, Silver might be cruel enough to take everything to you then call me the Devil because I will make sure that you will suffer until you wish you are dead. I'm not the same Amethyst Montefalco anymore I have a family to protect and I will make sure to protect them and their happiness with all I have."
Dalo daling lumuhod sa harap niya si Tess, she was not shock at all alam niyang fake ang pinakita nitong document sa kanya but she didn't realize this scene Tess will show her.
"I-Im sorry... Amethyst k-kailangan ko lang talaga ng pera, your brother took everything to me at wala na akong ibang maisip na paraan... Kiko is not Aiden's son I-I just need to do it because I need money to survive no company will hire me. My parents shove me out after hearing what Silver Montefalco will did. Tulungan mo ako Amethyst nag mahal lang naman ako."
Amethyst sighed she took a sip to her frappe, kinuha niya ang bag at nag labas doon ng pera.
"Huwag mo ng subukang gumawa pa ng hakbang naikakapahamak mo pa." She said, "Think about your son and start all over again, don't you dare do this kind of trick again or else I won't let you survive."
"Salamat, salamat Amethyst! I-I won't come back hindi ko na kayo guguluhin."
"You better be." She said before leaving, nang makalabas ay agad niyang kinuha ang cellphone. She dialed Silver's number and to her luck Silver answered her in just two ring.
"What do you want?" Masungit na wika nito. "I'm a busy man hurry up."
Amethyst chuckled she rolled her eyes and hopped inside her car.
"It's about Tess." She said, "stop harassing her please."
"I'm not harassing her." Bored na wika ni Silver.
"I know you did, tigilan mo na to Silver. Let her leave the life she wants for her kid, kahit para sa bata na lang."
Silver didn't speak ngunit naririnig niya ang malalim nitong pag hinga sa kabilang linya.
"You are too soft, that is why they are taking advantage of it." Tugon nito. "I will don't worry."
Amethyst sighed, malapad siyang ngumiti. Nag paalam na din siya sa kapatid at binaba ang tawag then she maneuver the car and leave that place. Her speed was just Normal hindi naman siya balasubas na driver kagaya ng mga kapatid niya, she turn on the music and dance with it. Till she realize her car is speeding up.
"What the hell?!" She curse and tried to push the break but it's no use. Her heart started beating fast as she approach the huge trailer truck infront of her.
Her eyes watered when she saw Sam and Aiden's smiling face while looking at her waiting for her in the Altar. She then realize how lucky she was and close her eyes as tears started rolling down her face.

"What are you smiling at?" Wika ni Drake na sinunukan siyang gulatin ngunit walang epekto his mind is occupied by the woman who invaded his mind. "Ahh I know why..."
Aiden smile even more she took Amethyst photo frame om his table, college pa sila noon mg kuhaan niya ng litrato ang dalaga she doesn't know it. He took the photo secretly, admiring her every inch.
"You are wiped." Drake said with disgust in his voice. "I won't be like you."
Aiden rolled his eyes nilapag niya ang frame sa lamesa.
"Huwag kang mag salita ng tapos Drake, you'll get wiped once you realize that a woman already has your heart.
"That's bullshit!" Kinikilabutang wika nito. "I can't believe you would say those words."
"Believe it or not that will really happen not know but sooner."
"Whatever, by the way Daddy ask me if he's invited to the wedding?"
"Of course..." He said. "It's about time he face my parents."
He know that Drake's father and Eros were cousins hindi niya lang alam ang istorya sa pagitan ng dalawa.
"He would be very happy to hear that." Drake said, "after your wedding I will be going back to Canada."
"What? Why?" He said, loves it here pero di niya akalain na babalik ito sa Canada.
"I just want too..."
Aiden arch his brow.
"Or maybe someone is waiting for you."
"What?! No!"
Malakas na natawa si Aiden sa naging reaksyon ng kapatid.
"It's okay I under—"
"Doc Chen! Emergency po sa Er!" Bungad sa kanya ng nurse na hindi na nakakatok. "Naka break po si Dr Martin!"
Aiden immediately stood up, kinuha nito ang coat at stethoscope sa lamesa bago nag mamadaling lumabas he run towards the ER and went to the close curtain.
"What happened to—" but his words were cut off when he realize whose laying on the bed. Tula gumuho ang mundo niya sa nakita her body is drench in blood while lying on the bed. Para siyang na bingi sa paligid habang nakatingin sa kanyang pasyente.
"A-amethyst.."
