Loize's Pov:
"Will you marry me?"
Instead of asking, she said it in a manner of a statement.
Very Talliah Grace...
"No." I answered without thinking twice.
This girl, lagi niya nalang inaagaw yung mga bagay na ako yung gagawa dapat.
It reminds me of the past when she decided to court me...
Nakita ko ang pagkadismaya sa kanyang mukha at ang pagbaba ng kanyang mga balikat.
Ngunit ang pagkadismaya sa kanya mata ay naglaho ng parang bula.
"Anong no?!" She asked. "Kala ko ba mahal mo ko, ito na nga...ako na nga yung nagpro-propose. Ano na nangyari sa sinabi mong just think of the four of us saka sa life will not wait for us, let's live in it? I can't accept no for an answer!"
Napatingin siya kay Alonzo nang gunalaw ito sa pagkakahiga.
"It's not what you think---"
She brushed her hair as she looked for something.
Nanatili lang akong nakatingin sa kanya habang kinukuha niya ang sintas ng sapatos ni Alonzo na sa sofa.
"Can I borrow this baby? Just sit okay."
What is she doing?
Pagkatapos niyang makuha ang sintas ay lumapit siya sa akin para kunin ang isa kong kamay.
"You told me na, whenever I am ready. I am ready now so I can't take no for an answer!"
Sabi niya at saka itinali sa isa kong dalari ang sintas ng sapatos.
"Dito ba dapat to o sa kabila?" Problemadong tanong niya.
She's back to her old self.
I stroke her hair with my free hand that made her looked at me. She just smiled brightly while showing my hand.
"Did I say yes?" I teasingly asked.
"It's not even a question to begin with." She answered.
I leaned to her and kissed her on her forehead.
"Talliah."
"Yes?"
"Talliah Grace..."
"Ano?" Naiinip na tanong niya.
Dahan-dahan akong lumuhod sa harap niya at saka inilabas ang isang box mula sa aking bulsa.
"Talliah Grace Cruz..."
"Are you proposing to me now?!" Kaagad niyang tinignan ang kanyang daliri. "I haven't done my nails? Bakit ka ba nang bibigla. Alam ba to nila Mom and Dad? Zo, your Dad is proposing to me!"
I can't believe this girl...in this situation, naisip niya pa talaga yung nail polish?
But, I must admit...this attitude of her makes her charming.
"Talliah Grace---"
Hindi ko natapos ang aking sasabihin nang lumuhod din siya sa aking harapan at hinalikan ako nang mabilis sa labi.
"Of course, Yes!" She said in glee while her eyes are beginning to water.
Inilagay ko ang sing-sing sa kanyang kamay at di kalaauna'y niyakap siya ng mahigpit.
"I love you." I whispered.
"I...Love y-you." She replied while sobbing.
"Bakit ka umiiyak?" Natatawang tanong ko. "We're supposed to be happy."
