CRYSTAL'S POV
The twisting in my stomach, would it ever be stopped?
The cool white quilt wrapped around my legs like a snake.
My eyelids dropped heavily and fell asleep eager for the biggest day of my life to come.

The chimes rang again from my purple cased mobile device. It vibrates on the wooden top of the bedside table.As I started to wake up, my eyes were flickering around until that feeling hit my stomach and realized today is June 19.
My eyes started to water. Sa wakas, ikakasal na ako sa lalaking pinakamamahal ko.
Waiting for this day is every girl's dream when they grow up. It's every girl's dream to be in that beautiful white gown and to have a handsome sweet groom.
"My wedding day!"
I keep on reapeating to myself.I saw my mom walking out of her room.
Tumakbo ako papunta sa kanya.
As soon as she looked at my eyes, tears started to flow."Why are you crying anak? Something wrong?"
Bahagya niyang hinagod ang kabuuan ko.
Sinalat niya rin ang aking noo't leeg.
"Nothing, Ma. It's just that,
today is my wedding day. Parang hindi ako makapaniwala. I'm...I'm just happy... So happy!"Ginantihan niya ako ng yakap and later on she led me towards my changing room.
Finally its time to get prepped and be beautiful for my forthcoming husband.
Many curls , thick curls filled the back of my head which were spiraled up into a thick bun.
The top were lined with a diamond white ribbon covered with crystal beads and pearls that led to a vintage flower shape with diamonds inside
the settings.A light brown powder covered the base of my eyelids, the outer lids had a darker brown that made a shadow look.
The mascara was fresh and newly opened which made the lashes thicker in volume.
It brought out my crystal hazel brown eyes.Rosy pink powder lined my cheek bones. Light pink gloss filled my lips making them sparkle.
A powder pink and white French tip completed my manicure.
Pearl settings sat at my ears.
The white strapless dress shaped my body beautifully. Clear crystals filled out the top with flower designs scattering in random places over the dress. The left side twisted the white silk fabric into more crystal settings.
Lastly, I wore a pair of white beaded pumps.
I took one last look at the
mirror."Ready?"
I smiled at my mother and reached her.
"I'm ready, Mama."
Mama hold my hand while we settled ourselves at the back seat of the bridal car.
I turned off my mobile device and asked Mama to do the same.

Hinawi ko ang mga tuyong dahon sa ibabaw ng puntod ni Papa saka ko nilagay ang isang basket ng puting rosas.
Ganun din ang ginawa ni Mama.
