Strangers (12:51)

Epilogue

(Steph)

I'm here outside the church. Wearing my dream wedding dress.

As the door opens. My heart beats as fast as the bullet train.

I'm so happy right now.

Every step I cherish.

Every step I feel.

Every step I conquered.

I'm Capturing the Moment.

I saw Ranger bit his lower lip.

He's so handsome.

My dream husband.

Ilang days narin kaming di nagkikita.. Sabi dapat ganun daw.

I missed him so much.

"Are you ready My Princess ?"

"I'm ready."

"Family and friends we celebrate the union of Ranger Dela Cuesta and Steph Alcantara. Today you enter as individuals, but you will leave here as husband and wife, blending your lives, expanding your family ties, and embarking upon the grandest adventure of human interaction. The story of your life together is still yours to write. All those present have come to witnesses and celebrate your love and commitment this day eager to be part of the story not yet told."

"Do you Ranger Dela Cuesta take Steph Alcantara to be your lawfully wedded wife, promising to love and cherish, through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, and whatever challenges your may face, for as long as you both shall live?"

"Yes, I Do."

"Do you Steph Alcantara take Ranger Dela Cuesta to be your partner in life and sharing your path; equal in love, a mirror for your true self, promising to honor and cherish, through good and bad times, until death do you part?"

"Yes, I Do."

Tumingin ako kay Ranger. Naka ngiti lang siyang nakitinging sakin.

"I love you!" He mouthed.
I blushed. He's too handsome to ignore. "I love you too." I replied.

"I Ranger Dela Cuesta, promise you, Steph Alcantara, that I will be your husband from this day forward, to be faithful and honest in every way, to honor the faith and trust you place in me, to love and respect you in your successes and in your failures, to make you laugh and to be there when you cry, to care for you in sickness and in health, to softly kiss you when you are hurting, and to be your companion and your friend, on this journey that we make together."

"I Steph Alacantara, take you, Ranger dela Cuesta, to be my lawfully wedded husband, my constant friend, my faithful partner and my love from this day forward. I pledge to you endless strength that you can count on me when you are weak. I'll be your music when you can't hear, your sunshine when you can't see, or you perfume when you can't smell. You'll never need to look further than me. I'll be your days and nights when you need them filled, your spark of life in the darkness, your hope when your down or out."

I saw his tears fell. He's so emotional when it comes into this. Like when he propose. He's crying so hard.

Kinuha ni Ranger yung kamay ko at sa kabila niyang kamay ay hawak niya na yung ring.

My dream wedding ring.

"I have for you a golden ring. The most precious metal symbolizes that your love is the most precious element in my life. The ring has no beginning and no ending, which symbolizes that the love between us will never cease. I place it on your finger as a visible sign of the vows which have made us husband and wife."

My tears came out.. Steph... Don't ruin your day....

"I give you this ring, as a symbol of my love and faithfulness. This ring is a token of my love. I marry you with this ring with all that I have and all that I am. As it encircles your finger, I commit my heart and soul to you, may it remind you always that you are surrounded by my enduring love."

"Family and Friend I present to you, for the first time. Mr. and Mrs. Dela Cuesta."

We looked at each other. He was smiling like hell. He bit his lower lip and raised his eyebrows.

I laughed because of that reaction.

"You may now kiss the bride."

I felt his lips into mine.

And he hugged me so tight.

"Ranger, I can't breathe." Grabe di na ako makahinga nakakasakal kaya. "I love you too!" Ano?? Sabi ko hindi ako makahinga. "Ang sabi ko hindi ako makahinga." Bigla niya akong binuhat pa bridal style palabas ng church.
"Ahh.. Akala ko I love you. Pero mahal rin kita." Huh?

Sinakay niya ako sa kotse. At hinawakan niya ako.

"Tara."

"San tayo pupunta?" Tanong ko.

"Sa nothing."

"Huh?? Nothing?"

"Nothing lasts forever right?"

"Yeah."

"Edi sa biyaheng nothing tayo."

"Ano? Tara?"

"Game!"

"Strangers!"
