I was speechless. I never thought Sherry's family would do such things like this to show kung gaano sila ka-supportive sa amin.

Sometimes, I wonder what will happen if things didn't go as planned? What if everything will be ruined someday? Pero nawawala lahat ng pangamba kapag nariyan na si Jana sa tabi ko.

It's been 6 months since the wedding day. Ate Lj is now 4 months pregnant. Sherry and I moved in together already a week after the wedding. We've been really good partners. We handle everything like married couples already. I'll be forever thankful that I have met her.

'Di pa rin mawala sa worries namin yung threat of life, kasi hindi pa rin nagsasalita yung gunman. But we're thankful na hindi na nasundan pa yung attack. We're still keeping our fingers crossed na wag ng masundan pa.

We're both busy lately in taking care of our own businesses. Sherry travels from one place to another just to meet potential clients and partners. Lumago ng bongga ang business nila mula nung siya na ang nag asikaso nito. Ganon din naman sa business namin, pero naghahati pa rin kami ni kuya sa pag handle nito.

Sherry will come home tonight that's why I planned to give her a dinner date. Ito na lang ulit kasi yung time na sabay kaming kakain sa loob ng 2 weeks. I cooked all of her favorite so that this date will be very special.

"Love, I'm home!" Bati niya pagbukas ng pinto.

Aba, may pa-flowers pa si bading.

I smiled at her and run kung saan siya nakatayo. Sinalubong ko siya ng yakap at siya rin namang yakap sa akin. Pinaulanan pa ako ng halik sa ulo pagkatapos.

"Are you hungry? I cooked dinner!" Masayang pahayag ko.

"Wow, really?! Tara na pala!" Masayang sagot naman niya.

I can sense that something is off with her. Para siyang natatae na ewan? Parang kinakabahan or whatnot.

"Are you okay, love?" Tanong ko matapos ligpitin ang pinagkainan namin. Nilabas ko na rin ang cheesecake na ginawa ko for our dessert.

"Oo naman. Bakit hindi?" Tanong nito.

Pero halata naman sa kanya ang kaba. Butil-butil ang pawis sa noo na akala mo e nagpipigil ng tae.

"You look nervous. Is there something that you want to tell me?" Tanong ko.

I'm starting to get worried or overthink. Para kasing may gusto siya sabihin.

"Uhm.. actually.." panimula nito.

She started to get uncomfortable with her seat. She's fidgeting and all that.

"What is it?" Diretsong tanong ko.

"I just... I've been.. ugh." Frustrated niyang sabi.

"You just what? You've been what?" Tanong ko naman.

"Ada, I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time now. But I don't want to pressure you or something that's why I kept it for a while. But now, I don't want to waste time anymore.." she started to sound serious and she's looking directly to my eyes while saying those.

"What is it?" Kabadong tanong ko.

"Will you uhm.." panimula niya.
