Yanji's pov

Napagdesisyonan namin na magpa-gawa na ng bagong bahay. Kung istorya lang ang aming buhay, the title will be "from Tragedy to triumph."


"Love, What are you doing?" Aden asked.

"Nothing. Come here, love. We need to talk." saad ko.

Nakita ko ang pagpasok niya sa loob ng office ko. "Ang gwapo!" hagikhik ko.

"I know right!?" mayabang na sabi niya.
Tumawa na lamang ako.

"Love, I think kailangan na nating mag pa gawa ng sariling bahay. Total okay na ang lahat. Then after that, magpapagawa pa tayo ng maraming art galleries."

"That's my girl! Maraming plano sa buhay. You know, I liked that, but I like you more.."

Napangiti ako sa sinabi niya. He's the best.

"Pwede ka bang pumunta mamaya sa art gallery? I am busy, e, I need your help. Maraming pumupunta doon."

"Ofcourse. See you later!" I kissed his cheeks.

7:35pm na. Kailangan ko pang pumunta sa art gallery kaya nag madali akong mag bihis at saka sumakay sa kotse.

Nang makarating ay tumakbo ako papasok. Nabigla ako sa hitsura ng lugar dahil madilim. "A-aden? Where are you?"

Narinig ko ang hiyawan bago bumukas ang ilaw ng opisina ko. Maraming balloons sa paligid. Maraming tao at lahat sila masaya. Hinanap ng mata ko si Aden. 


"Hi! Nakita niyo ba si Aden?" tanong ko sa lalake sa may likuran.

"Ayun, o!" turo niya sa may pintuan ng office. Nakita ko ang ngiti sa labi ni Aden. Napansin ko rin ang hawak niya.


"W-what!? Yes!!!" inunahan ko na siya. Nakita kong naka lagay sa tarpaulin ay "Will you marry me?"


"Thank you so much! I promise to love you until my last breath."
