Two Hearts, One Rhythm

Chapter 31

"Na contact ko na si mayor, Kai! Saktong free siya ngayong araw. Sigurado ba talaga kayo? Grabe naman ang shotgun wedding niyo!" Andong said.

Kai's sitting on the sofa, with his siko resting on his knees and hands intertwined. He looks so lost in his thoughts! Gulat pa rin sa pagyaya ko sa kanya kanina!

"Kai, answer." I said, urging him to speak. I smirked when he looked at me with a bewildered face.

"As much as I love surprises from you, you can at least give me a warning first. Aatakihin ako sa puso sa iyo, Mish." Kai said. I laughed. Sarap pagtripan!

Palipat lipat ng tingin si Andong sa amin bago magsalita. "Grabe naman kayo mang inggit."

"You don't have a special someone ba?" I asked him.

Andong scratched his head. "Wala, eh."

I rolled my eyes. "I don't believe that. You're gwapo kaya!"

"Stop right there, Mish."

"May gusto ako, kaso busy pa, eh. Hindi ko pa gusto guluhin." Andong chuckled awkwardly.

I rolled my eyes again. Galen in another human form nga.

"Basta you will be a witness later! Wear formal clothing, ah!" I said.

"Oo na, oo na! Alis na muna ako at magkuskos pa ako ng katawan." Andong said before going out of the house.

I sat next to Kai and rested my head on his shoulder. "I want to get married na sayo agad. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, Mish. Gusto ko rin naman, ginulat mo lang ako."

I laughed before looking over his face while resting my chin on his shoulder. "I don't want any grand wedding and reception. I just want to marry you. Kahit in secret lang."

"Now, mas lalo akong nagulat diyan."

I laughed. "Why?"

"Ilang taon kang galante tapos gusto mo makasal sa isang civil wedding lang? There must be a miracle, Mish."

"I don't care! Ikaw naman ang groom so that's what matters to me most!"

"Ano na lang sasabihin nila tita kapag nalaman nilang kasal ka na? For sure they would insist on a church wedding and a wedding reception. Plus, I want to give you the wedding you deserve. Ilang taon na rin ako nag ipon para dito." Kai said.

My heart fluttered. "Okay lang ako sa civil wedding, Aiden. Nothing matters anymore. I would just convince my family to have a celebratory dinner na lang sa mansion. Nothing grand na."

Kai sighed. "Please don't adjust your life for me, mi vida."

I frowned at him. "No, I'm not. Gusto ko lang din ng civil wedding talaga. I swear I won't be simple when I start living in your house! Tadtarin ko 'yon ng mga mamahaling bagay!" I warned him.

Kai looked at me. "I want to give you another wedding pero kung ito na talaga gusto mo, I won't force you anymore. As long as you're my bride."

I grinned and clapped my hands. "Great! Now, where's the wedding ring? Do you have those na ba?"

He looked so done with me. "Binigla mo ako sa wedding ngayon tapos maghahangad ka pa ng singsing? Of course, wala pa."

I giggled. "Sorry if this wedding is a spur of a moment kind of thing. Pero aminin mo na gusto mo rin!"

Kai chuckled before pulling me closer to his chest. Nakasandal siya sa backrest habang nakasandal ako sa sa kanya.

"I love you so much, baby. Would never get tired thanking you for coming into my life."
