BBM's POV

I cant stop staring at her. She looks so beautiful in her wedding dress. Hindi ko napansing andito na sya agad sa harap ko.

'she's yours to keep now, Mr. President. Im entrusting our bunso to you. DO. NOT. HURT. HER. EVER. AGAIN.' her dad said

'please take care of our bunso. You know how much we love her, right?' her mom said

I hugger her mom and gave a salute to her dad. Sandro tapped my shoulders and hugged Jade.

'thank you for coming into his life tita. We love our father so much that's why, we were so overjoyed when we came to know that he will love again. Welcome to the family, tita Jade! Ooopppss, sorry I meant mom' Sandro

She just smiled at him and looked at me. Para na naman akong nahypnotized.

Maya maya, nakabawi nako sa mga nararamdaman ko. I took her hand and iginiya sya sa altar. Whew. This is it.

'shall we, love?' sabi ko sa kanya

Tinanggap nya lang yung kamay ko and we walked towards to the priest. We remained standing.

'dearly beloved, we are all gathering here to witness the union of these two lovers. Jade Fuentebella and his excellency, Mr. Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'

The crowd clapped. Napatingin ako sa kanila. All I can see is smiling faces. Lahat sila masayang masaya.

The media took some of our photos. Bukas nasa TV na naman kami. Wala namang bago dun.

I looked at my wife. She's crying.

'hey. Stop crying na' I told her

'kainis ka kamo! Pano ako nito mamaya? Di ako nakapag prepare ng wedding vows! Anong sasabihin ko mamaya?' she whispered angrily

'stop thinking about that and focus on our wedding wife. Kahit kailan ka talaga' I said as I pinch her nose.

The ceremony continued. Her sister is one of the bridesmaids. Yung bestfriend nyang si Jcee naman ang maid of honor nya.

The cord sponsors, Mr. Zobel and Ms. Sy, stood up nung ilalagay na sa amin yung tali.

We were about to continue with the wedding vows when Jade snatched the microphone from the priest. What the hell?

'father, ayoko pong magsinungaling. Wala po akong naka prepare na wedding vows, okay lang po ba?' she asked the priest

The priest just chuckled and got the mic back, saka ibinigay saken to. Inilabas ko naman ung wedding vows ko from my pocket. Napairap si Jade hahaha

'the feeling hit me the very first time I have seen you in the rally sa Cavite. Nakikipagsiksikan ka pa para makita mo kapogian ko hahahaha'

The audience laughed while cheering my name. Tiningnan naman ako ng masama ni Jade kaya nagpatuloy ako.

'I tried to erase you from my mind. Sabi ko sa sarili ko na you're too young. Teenager pa nga ang tingin ko sayo nun eh. Pero di ako nag succeed. Lagi ka pa ring laman ng utak ko hanggang mapunta ka na sa puso ko. I told myself, she's the one' naiiyak na sabi ko

'until the day of the event came, I saw you outside of the venue, and I knew right there and then, that I will love you more than I love myself. Thank you Darryl Yap for inviting Jade. If it weren't for you, diko makikilala ang babaeng magpapasaya sa akin. I also want to thank Manang for introducing Jade to me'

Napatingin ako sa kanila and they smiled at me. Ang dalawang responsable kung bakit andito kami ni Jade ngayon.

She was just crying while listening to my vows. So I continued,
