Undeniable Romance

LABING ISA

“Congratulations, Hija. Akala ko, tatakbuhan mo ang anak namin. I'm so happy for you....” Tita Caroline suddenly hug me.

I laugh as what tita said.

“Thank you, Tita. I never expect that he will going to propose...” Until now, hindi pa rin nagsisink in sa aking utak ang nangyari kanina.

I can't believe, I have a diamond ring on my fingers.

“Congrats my daughter in law. Naku, bilis bilisan niyo na ang paggawa ng apo ko.” Tita Niccolaus added.

Napayuko akong natatawa.

“I'm proud of you, son. Lagi mo talaga akong pinapabilib.”

“Thank you, Dad.”

Even their visitors, congratulate us. Nakiyakap rin ito sa amin.

Right now, I'm still dreaming of what happened awhile ago. Oh my god! Totoo ba 'to? I'm engaged already? Oh darn!

          “Wake up, my fiancee....”

A warmth breathe on my forehead woke me up. As I open my eyes, I saw Seve who's smiling from ear to ear.

“My head hurt....” Napahawak ako sa aking ulo.

LAST night was a blast. An unexpected proposal of Seve to me. Until now, I just can't believe that he already proposed to me. I thought it was just a party for his parents.

He never told me or even Keius, magkasama at magkausap kami nito kagabi ngunit hindi manlang niya ako sinabihan. That was fast! Really really fast.

“I'll massage it for you, come here!” Umupo ito sa bandang ulunan ko at nagsimulang hilutin ang ulo ko.

I close my eyes and feel his massage.

“You drunk a lot last night, baby.” He told me.

“Because of happiness! You didn't inform me that you'll going to propose. What if I reject you last night?” I told him.

“I have this gut feeling that you can't reject me, baby. Beside, I already owned you, in bed.” Napailing ako sa kabastusan nito.

He's being serious last night at sino ba naman ako para takbuhan 'to? Hahawakan ko ang sinabi nito sa akin.

“Dad and Mom should know about these.” Alam kong magtatampo iyon.

“..I think they are aware of that, baby. At okay naman 'daw sa kanila if someday magpropose ako.” He said.

My dad is really excited. Hindi naman ako tatandang dalaga. Napaka overreacting ng daddy ko.

“... feeling better?” He suddenly ask me.

Tumango nalang ako at umupo mula sa pagkakahiga.

“I have a surprise...tinulugan mo kasi agad ako kagabi, December.” He told me.

Napairap ako sa kanya at tumayo.

I went to his restroom to get some robe. I'm currently wearing my underwear right now. Dahil nasanay akong iyon lagi ang aking suot kapag natutulog.

Nalanghap ko kaagad ang pabango nito maski sa banyo. I love his smell all the time. I look at myself at the big mirror.

I couldn't help myself but to smiled. Thinking about what happened last night. Still, sa kanya rin pala ko babagsak.
