#7:

Oh, to wake up with the man you love beside you. I smiled with the thought. Palagi kong ipinagdarasal ang moment na ito kay Lord and I also prayed for the guy na inilaan niya para sa akin. Siguro dati, I am inlove to the idea na mafall inlove pero deep down, feeling ko I was traumatized sa naging nakarelationship ko. It took years na makamoved on and to heal myself.

Dami ngang nagsasabi na sa ganda kong ito, wala daw akong ka situationship man lang? Ha! I'm not yet ready and I learned a lot naman sa mga friends ko na may mga jowa na about their lessons and realizations on their relationships. Looking back, I am grateful to myself for not being impulsive and reckless to think na ang iba kahit days na walag jowa, feeling nila hindi sila mabubuhay sa mundo. Well, sometimes I daydreamed na magkaroon ng jowa pero I did not dare to look for one.

Kapoy.

I traced the curve of his eyebrows, ang kanyang matangos na ilong, ang mapipilantik na pilik-mata, those tiny freckles on his cheeks and his lips. Mas red and hindi dry kung titingnan kumpara sa akin. I smelled his breath. Nahiya naman ako sa hininga ko. Gusto kong halikan pero na-conscious ako. Dahan-dahan kong inalis ang mga braso niyang nakapulupot sa aking bewang. Eto naman, parang takot ako mawala. Parang kailan lang, after namin maikasal, halos di na ako pagtatrabahuin para palagi daw kaming magkasama. Ay jusmiyo marimar! Ang clingy.

Nakakakilig pakinggan but I grew up as an independent woman and he already knows that. Nagising siya sa ginawa ko. I smiled, we exchanged good mornin's and kissed him. Naghanda kami ng aming breakfast. I carried my 6 months old baby boy and he feeds our 5 years old twin daughter. Thank you Lord for my handsome, loving and responsible husband. Thank you for giving him to me.

I love you, my darling, my CEO, my Lance Alastair Montecarlo.
