A new beginning. The last route towards our happy ever after.
Who would've thought a person who swore to never settle would find herself walking down the aisle one day? Ang funny lang. Pierce's timing was so good na sumakto sa panahong gustong-gusto ko na magka-boyfriend.
I'm still amazed at how the heavens have heard my plea. And as I take gentle steps towards the man of my dreams, every moment we spent together flashed in my head.
It's the simple things really. Like how Pierce would know when I'm overthinking and he always knew the right words to say. When I'm doubting myself, he would uplift my spirit and everything would be okay.
It's always the little things...
"And why do I get so nervous when I look into your eyes...
Butterflies can't stop me falling for you."
Napangiti ako nang marinig ko ang pre-chorus. I slowly lifted my eyes to where he is. Nagtama ang mga mata namin. Nakita ko kung paano niya hinayaang lumandas ang luha sa pisngi niya as he continued to smile at me.
Nang matapos ang kanta at magkatabi na kaming dalawa, kinuha niya ang kamay ko at hinalikan ang likod ng palad ko. "This isn't just a dream, right? I'm marrying you for real, right?"
I laughed at his cuteness. Masaya akong tumango. "We're getting married."
Lumawak ang ngiti niya at hihigitin na sana ako payakap nang magsalita ang pari. We were in our best behavior all throughout the ceremony.
"You may now kiss the bride," masayang anunsyo ni Father.
At last... Ang pinakahihintay ko!
"Reception na, babe!" Excited na bulong ko kay Pierce na sumimangot. Marahan niya akong hinarap sa kaniya at dahan-dahang tinaas ang belo ko. Napakunot ang noo ko sa ginagawa niya.
"That can wait. But your husband can't," he said with a smirk.
Husband... Gago, ang sarap sa ears!
Nag-pa-party pa ang internal organs ko sa katotohanang asawa ko na siya nang walang sabi-sabing hinapit niya ang bewang ko at hinagkan ang mga labi ko.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko kasabay ng pagbilis ng tibok ng puso ko at ang hiyawan ng mga pinsan ko.
I held onto his shoulders as we continued to share our first kiss as husband and wife.
The taste of an ever after.
