HenrickViolet glides down the aisle, her exquisite wedding dress cascading gracefully around her. Beneath the graceful veil, her lips curve into a sweet smile- the most enchanting smile I have ever seen in my life.
At the altar, I nervously awaited, my eyes locked on my approaching bride. Time seems to halt as I behold Violet Ramirez, the woman of my dreams, drawing near. I am out of breath looking at her from afar.
She looks breathtakingly beautiful in her radiant white wedding gown, like a precious jewel shimmering with beauty and splendor. Our wedding day is a testament to her captivating charm. She embodies a vision of elegance, exemplifying grace and sophistication. Her presence radiates love and happiness, enveloping her in joy and fulfillment.
Habang paunti-unti siyang papalapit ang puso ko ay walang tigil sa paglindol. Pabilis nang pabilis. Sa tanang buhay ko ngayon lang ako kinabahan ng sobra. Pakiramdam ko'y nanaginip pa rin ako. The place is magical, from the violet flowers to the entire venue adorned with striking elements.
After eight years of yearning, I have finally reached her. Any minute now, she will officially become Mrs. Russell.
Veronica grasps my wrist, steadying my shaking knees. "Doesn't she look beautiful in white?" she proudly remarks.
"Nothing can compare, mom," agad ko na sagot na hindi magawang ikalas ang tingin sa mukha ng aking magandang bride.
My life was once a canvas of doubts, indistinct and utterly colorless. It was a monotonous existence, solitary with no one to lean on, and even academics couldn't spark my passion. But everything changed when I entered her school and saw her in the locker room for the first time. My world burst into color. She infused my life with the hues of a vibrant rainbow, making each day a new opportunity to catch a glimpse of her beauty. I admired her from a distance, content with fleeting, clandestine glances. And then, as if orchestrated by destiny, fate intervened.
I reached out to her, wanting to be part of her world. I used to think her life was perfect, but I was wrong. It was filled with bitterness, and I felt insignificant. However, she made me feel seen and needed at her most vulnerable. This made me fall for her even more. I realized that my life had a purpose - to stand by her side, support her, and love her wholeheartedly.
And now, I could hardly believe that she would become my wife in just a few minutes. I promised myself to never neglect her... never again.
"It appears you're quite smitten with my daughter, Henrick!" biro ni Emmanuel nang mapansin akong nakapako pa rin sa kinatatayuan na hindi man lang kumukurap.
"A million times over, Emmanuel." Nakamagneto pa rin ang aking mga mata kay Violet na sa sandaling ito'y may matamis na ngiti sa labi.
"I will trust my daughter to you now, son. Please, mahalin mo siya sa abot ng iyong makakaya. Bilang ama niya'y hindi ko iyon naibigay sa kanya at sana'y h'wag mong gawin sa anak ko ang pagpabaya ko sa kanya noon, Henrick," madamdaming pahayag ni Emmanuel. Tinapik niya ang balikat ko't niyakap ng mahigpit. "I will always be grateful to you."
