Chapter 9 The Wedding

• THE WEDDING
• Because Rico’s parents are in a hurry to have Rico and Dina marry, Rico hurriedly processes their wedding procedures. Even though Dina’s presence and willingness are not there, Rico could still take care of all of it accordingly.
• Dina, as usual, always locked herself in her room, even though Rico kept on asking her out to take part in their wedding preparations, such as choosing her ring or her wedding gown. However, Rico fails to convince her to come out because Dina never cares about their wedding as long as she just needs to say yes to their wedding day. Dina would just always tell Rico, “It’s all up to you.” Rico’s schedule is very hectic, but despite this, he was still able to process their wedding… he is anxious that Dina might change her mind if he cannot please her. It is too late to back out. That is why he is doing his best to get Dina out of the Ortega’s responsibility and give her complete freedom from the prison she is experiencing now. By doing so, he will also clean his conscience from the guilt of Dina’s father’s death.
