Taboo Romance

chapter 24: gratitude

Excited and hopeful, Red and Neri made their way to Tito Marco and Tita Xandra's home At LC Residences, eager to extend their invitation to be sponsors at their wedding. As they approached the doorstep, Neri took a deep breath to steady her nerves, while Red offered her a reassuring smile.

Red shows his identification card to the guard at the gate, and the guard motions for him to proceed.

 As Red rang the doorbell, and moments later, the door swung open to reveal Tito Marco and Tita Xandra, both of whom greeted them with warm smiles.

Tito Marco: "Red, Neri, what a pleasant surprise! Come on in."

They entered the house, and the atmosphere immediately felt welcoming and familiar. After they settled...

Neri: "Tito Marco, Tita Xandra, we have something special we'd like to ask you."

Tita Xandra: "Oh? What is it, dear?"

Red took Neri's hand, his expression earnest as he addressed their relatives.

Red: "We would be honored if you both would consider being sponsors at our wedding."

Tito Marco and Tita Xandra exchanged a glance, their smiles widening at the heartfelt request.

Marco: "Of course, we'd be delighted to! We'd love to be a part of your special day."

Xandra: "It would be our pleasure."

Neri's eyes shimmered with gratitude, and Red squeezed her hand affectionately.

Neri: "Thank you both so much. Your support means the world to us."

Marco: Please come back this evening for dinner...

Their relatives enveloped them in warm hugs, their excitement contagious as they discussed the details of the upcoming wedding.

As Red and Neri left Tito Marco and Tita Xandra's home, their hearts were filled with joy and gratitude. With their relatives' enthusiastic acceptance, they felt even more excited for the celebration of their love that lay ahead.

Red: "That was such a wonderful evening. I feel so grateful to have Tito Marco and Tita Xandra in our lives."

Neri: "Me too. They're such amazing people, and their support means everything to us."

Red: "And knowing that they'll be there with us on our special day makes it even more meaningful."

Neri: "It's comforting to have our family by our side as we embark on this new chapter together."

Red: "With their love and encouragement, I feel like we can take on anything."

Neri: "Yes, we're truly blessed. How I wish to celebrate our love surrounded by our loved ones, including Tito Marco and Tita Xandra."

Red: "Let's have our fingers crossed that our other relatives will attend. It's going to be an unforgettable day, Neri. I'm so grateful to share it with you and our wonderful family."

As they walked hand in hand to their car, Red and Neri felt a renewed sense of excitement and anticipation for their upcoming wedding. With the love and support of their relatives, they knew that their celebration would be filled with joy, laughter, and cherished memories. And as they drove home, their hearts overflowing with gratitude, Red and Neri couldn't help but feel like the luckiest couple in the world.

In the evening, excitedly accepting Tito Marco and Tita Xandra's invitation for dinner, Red and Neri arrived at their home, greeted by the warm glow of the porch lights and the inviting aroma of home-cooked food.
