Chapter 50 

Heartbeat 

I am just looking at Marco after what he said. I don't know what to feel but all I know is tears are starting to form in my eyes while looking at his eyes which speak love and happiness while looking at me. At this moment while staring at him I can't help but remember everything we've been through.

It makes me remember the first time I met him. Yung batang lalaking nakayuko na akala mo sobrang laking kasalanan ang nagawa kung yumuko siya. The first time we introduced ourselves to each other and how we got to know that we both love music. Our first fight, yung inakala niya na kinakaawaan ko siya but the truth is a part of me just care for him without knowing the reason why. Yung unang pagtatampo ko sa kanya. All the promises we said to each other. 

Lahat ng mga sakit na pinagdaanan naming dalawa. Yung panahon na kinailangan niyang maging malakas dahil ako ang mahina. Yung panahon kung paano niya pinaramdam sa'kin na sobrang swerte ko na meron akong siya. 

All of the tears that we both cried after saying a lot of words we don't even mean. Yung mga luha ko noong mga panahong iniwan niya ako at paano ako umaasa na babalikan niya ako at gagawin ko ang lahat makabawi lang sa kanya. 

Bumalik din sa isip ko yung panahon na halos mawalan na ako ng pag-asa para sa'ming dalawa dahil parang amy nagsasabi na hindi dapat kami magkasamang dalawa. We suffered so much to the point that being with each other is also painful back then. 

He think he's a mess but I think of him as the only person who can make everything perfect in my life. Siya yung kayang magparamdam sa'kin na sobrang perpekto na ng buhay ko basta meron akong siya. 

"I told you, I will just ask but I want to add another ring on this finger. Kasya pa naman ata ang dalawa. One is if you said yes and the other one if we get married." He looks at my finger and he is still tracing the rings that are in there. 

Tuluyan ng tumulo yung luha sa mga mata ko when Michael starts playing the keyboard. The moment become so magical because of that. Everyone in the venue is quiet habang pinapanood kaming dalawa ni Marco. 

I watch how he kneel in front of me, in front of everyone watching us kaya mas lalong lumala na ang pagtulo ng luha sa mga mata ko lalo na ng may ilabas siyang lagayan ng singsing. Sobrang lakas din ng pagtibok ng puso ko dahil sa ginagawa niya ngayon. His eyes speaks everything. Ang ganda tingnan ng mga mata niya. 

Looking at the eyes of the man I love feels like I am looking at the star. A shining star. A light in the darkest nights, it's Marco. He can give light at the darkest moment of your life but at the brightest moment of your life, he can give you a beautiful sight... His eyes are shining like a star shining for me. 

"Zemira Ember Velasco, my song, my joyous melody, and my world... Will you spend your lifetime with me? Can you allow me to be your favorite song? 'Cause you are mine." I thought he will not cry but the moment he asked me that question tears fall from his eyes. 

I watch him open the box and I saw a beautiful rose gold twisted shape diamond ring. Yung parang band ng singsing ay nakatwist and it was so beautiful. Despite of my eyes being full of tears I can't help but admire the ring. 

Tanging ang keyboard lang mula kay Michael na tumutugtog ng piano version ng A Thousand Years ang naririnig sa buong venue. Marco's eyes is just looking at me waiting to the answer that I will give him. Ramdam ko din ang tingin ng lahat sa'kin kahit na ang mga mata ko nasa lalaking mahal ko lang.
