The Beauty of Letting Go

Epilogue

"We gathered to unite Anastasia Reign Morrison and Asher Matteo Vargas in the power of marriage. You all have come together to witness how these two people shall be bound through all mighty God."

The moment a priest laid his eyes on us with the woman I love felt surreal. I married her. I did it.

"From this day to the rest of your lives is a commitment to each other to act as an entirely rather than halves, but more than that you are committed to be each other's friend, companion, and family. With your intention to enter the covenant of Holy Matrimony, join your right hand and declare your conscent and fidelity to each other."

I hold Anastasia's hand tightly and I don't have plan of letting it go. She's my wife, of all the sorrows and pain and happiness we shared will all make sense now that we're married.

"Asher Matteo Vargas, do you accept Anastasia Reign Morrison, to be your wife? To live together as friends and mate? Will you love her as a person, respect her as an equal, sharing joy as well as sorrow, triumph as well as defeated? And keep her beside you as you both shall live?"

I looked at her in her eyes.

"I do," i said without second thought.

I saw her smile despite of the tears of happiness in her eyes. She's happy.

"Anastasia Reign Morrison, do you accept Asher Matteo Vargas, to be your husband?To live together as friends and mate? Will you love him as a person, respect him as an equal, sharing joy as well as sorrow, triumph as well as defeated? And keep him beside you as you both shall live?"

"I do," she said without doubts.

~ That night, I craved to tell you what I felt. I wanted to tell you that I love you and you have nothing to do with the accident. I close my eyes without you and I open it again.. without you.

I was worried because I thought you're waiting for me and I wasn't there to fullfil my promise; little did I know that you're waiting because you want us end.

Kakasimula pa lang ay may katapusan nang nakaabang. I wasn't ready. Sa dami ng pangarap ko para saating dalawa ay hindi kasama roon ang maghiwalay. But then, relationship wasn't just for one person.

God knows I waited.

I waited tomorrow. I waited the following days. For years I waited for your voice, touch, message, but you're not there anymore. I strive so hard to have a profession, to be an architect. To have a decent work and earn a lot of money so I one day, if you'll comeback I will marry you as what I promise.

All I want is easy. To be with you for the rest of my life.

But then, easy things will always be the hardest. It makes me want to kneel and beg the universe to give you back to my arms again. To pleased all the Gods above because I promise myself that it was you or no one. That I will live for you or I will die trying.

I saw you from a far. Like a brightest star, you're shining differently in the crowd of the star clusters. I wanted to shout your name in the crowd. I wanted to tell the world that once in my life I called you mine. That once in my life I have you.

Gusto kong ipalaam sa buong mundo na mahal kita. Na minsan sa buhay mo ay minahal mo 'ko. You're too high that I couldn't even reach you. You became the woman that you dreamt. I was the happiest person alive when I saw you walking on the runway of your dreams.

Akala ko sa malayo lang kita makikita at sa litrato lang kita mahahawakan. Akala ko hindi ko na masisilayan ulit ang ganda ng mga ngiti mo. I thought I will never see your shinning eyes again.
