My Serendipity

12: Memories

Alessia's pov:

Tahimik lang kaming naglalakad ngayon pabalik sa bahay, hindi ko pa rin makalimutan ang nangyari kanina, putsa.

Flashback

After i said those words, i don't know how to act, as if something just struck my whole body leaving my heart beat abnormally.

I stared at her like she's the most beautiful woman in my eyes, i waited for her response, my hands are sweating in so much tension. Fuck!

"Thankyou, wifey" she thanked me while smiling genuinely at me.

What the fucking fuck???!!

Did she just called me wifey????

God, i might faint right now, please help me.

I was too stunned to react, my eyes wide open. She never called me wifey, it's always been me who's calling her that way. This is not her.

Ganito ba epekto ng ubas?

"I never imagined that i'll enjoy picking grapes in this beautiful place." She's smiling while telling me that.

I can't help but smile too. i can feel my ears heating up, fuck! How many times did i blushed already?!

"Y-you c-called me w-wifey?" Finally, i had the courage to ask her.

She laughed elegantly, which made my heart flatter...again.

fuck! fuck! fuck!

"Yep, shocked? It's no big deal; everyone here knows that we're married."

"You're right" i answered, then forced a laugh.

Tumayo na ako at kinuha ang basket niya na puno ng ubas, pagkatapos ay tumalikod na sakanya dahil paniguradong mukha na akong tanga.

End of flashback.

Tahimik lang kaming dalawa, walang nagsasalita. Ibinaling ko sakanya ang tingin ko at sakto namang nagtama ang paningin naming dalawa dahilan para umiwas ako agad ng tingin sakanya. Juice ko po.

"Wifey?"

"Hmm?"

"Can we enjoy this vacation?" I asked her. Ibinaling rin niya ang tingin sa akin. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang iniisip niya ngayon dahil nakatingin lang siya, she also stopped walking.

Tumigil rin ako sa paglalakad at humarap sakanya, the light were reflecting brightly in her eyes, dumidilim na pala, matagal din pala kaming nandoon.

"Yeah, let's pretend that we're not forced in this marriage" she joked, and laughed.

Hindi ako tumawa at diretso lamang na tumingin sakanya, when she noticed, she stopped laughing.

"Hey?" She asked confused.

"Even if we're not always okay, marrying you is not bad at all, Rene. The loneliness that's keeping me for years just vanished. You're my light now, my sunshine, please...don't hate me too much."

My eyes were pleading; I really wanted to enjoy every minute with her. I'll never know what will happen after this. I want to make beautiful memories with her.

I'm not asking for too much.

I was stunned when she softly cupped my face; the softness of her palm is soothing. My heart felt like it wanted to come out of its ribcage; I couldn't move, and I could smell her sweet perfume right now, she's too close, i can't breath. You're making me crazy, Alaia Serene.
