Special Chapter 5
"Perfect Wedding"
That's every woman's dream, right? Sino bang gusto ng walang kwentang wedding? Bilib na ako kapag may tataas ng kamay.
Everyone. Llalo na tayong mga babae we want a perfect wedding, yung tipong kakainggitan ka ng mga kapwa mo babae. Yung tipong kahit 100 years old ka na, pag naalala mo o kahit makita mo lang ang pictures, kikiligin ka na parang teenager ka ulit.
Pero anu nga ba ang definition ng 'perfect wedding'? Yung walang sablay, lahat maayos, as in now flaws at all?
In almost eight months of wedding preparation nila Mikay, nalaman nila ang totoong meaning ng 'perfect wedding'. Actually di lang nila nalaman, naexperience na nila agad even before the wedding.
Ngayon ang wedding day ni Mikay at Gino. And halos mapunit ang mukha nila sa lapad ng mga ngiti nila. Thank God they remain good looking.
Parang lalabas ang puso nila sa rib cage nila dahil sa sobrang saya. Yung saya na parang hindi sila dumating sa point na halos maghiwalay sila.
Right after na magkaayos sila sa Masantol. Magdecide sila na magrelax, natulog si Mikay sa bahay NILA. Nagkwentuhan about the past. Nagtawanan and nagasaran
Pero bago sila natulog, they fix everything. Napagusapan nila ang problema, nakapag sorry sila sa isat isa. At magkayakap na natulog. Then they live happily ever after. Hahaha
Just kidding.
They live happy and contented, stronger than ever.
Minsan talaga unexpected events will happen not to piss you out but instead to teach you a lesson. Pero talagang ang initial reaction natin is 'Naiinis'.
Lahat ng flaws na nangyari sa almost perfect nilang preparation; it all happened to remind them that perfect wedding isn't about 'being entirely without fault in all aspects like program or ceremonies. It speaks more than that.
Its the love that counts.
Uy love nanaman!
Come to think of it, perfect ang wedding ceremony nyo, walang kamali mali, walang problema... Pero after months marerealize mo 'sana hindi nalang sya ang pinakasalan ko'
Where's the love in there?
But God reminded Gino and Mikay that love can really conquer it all. Even the craziest event na pwedeng mangyari, pwedeng yun ang magpapasaya sayo if you just let love win.
Because sometimes, yung mga unexpected events sa buhay natin, it's God's simple way to spare us from super painful experience that is to come.
"Gino, I am not perfect when you met me. And Im still imperfect when we were dating. In short Im still the same imperfect beautiful lady na pinapakasalan mo today"
Kaella is now reciting her vow. Maraming kinikilig, natatawa at naiiyak. Wala pa nga sa climax umiiyak na.
"But goodnews! In spite of my imperfection, I can still love perfectly. And you are the lucky guy who'll experience it. Everyday, every second of our lives"
"In line with my perfections, ngayon palang magsosorry na ako sa magiging mistakes na gagawin ko during our marriage. But I won't be doing sonething that will tear us apart."
Saglit na natahimik si Kaella at tumitig kay Gino. "Someone told me na parang isang novel ang story natin. And every novel has its own ending. And for others, dito na natatapos sa wedding ang lahat. But I don't believe in that, this is just a start of another chapter of our lives, together"
"I love you Gino.."
Medyo naluluha na si Gino sa mga narinig nya from Mikay. Parang yung mga visitors nila, umiiyak narin.
Huminga muna sya ng malalim bago nya irecite ang wedding vow nya.
"Not so long ago, I just celebrated my 26th birthday. And as I look at you trying to prepare some special food, naalala ko na in my 26 years of existence, eight full years I've been inlove with you. Eight full years we already had enough."
"Our love has been tested in different ways, and I am so glad because in eight full years of torment, nandito na tayo sa araw na akala natin pareho hindi na mangyayari."
"Naisip ko rin na in 26 years of my life, almost 18 years ang wala ka sa buhay ko. Buti nalang pumayag ka pakasal sa akin, kasi we have now all the time in the world to explore our strenght and weaknesses and to love each other more."
"Actually excited ako, because 10 years from now half of my existence, ikaw ang kasama ko. And add some another years, 10, 20, 40 years from now... Its our forever."
"This has been my promise to my gorgeous slum girl princess... And my promise till death.... 'Ikaw lang ang babaeng mamahalin ko'"
We don't need a flawless wedding, we just need our love that surpasses beyond doubts, pain, hardship and even weakness. And that love would be the greatest recipe for our...
"Perfect wedding"
"Gino, now have all the right to kiss your wife Kaella"
And in less than a minute, their lips are now touched with each other. Savoring all the love and happiness na meron sila.
"First kiss..." pabulong na sabi ni Kaella habang masayang nakadikit ang noo sa asawa.
"No, its our second kiss"
Nagtaka si Mikay "What do you mean?"
Niyakap sya ni Gino ng mahigpit. "Last day ng funeral ni Gino Dela Rosa, hindi ka dumating so I have come into Malacanang like a thief just to see you before I leave for Australia. And I kissed you while you were sleeping"
"You did?"
"I did..." nakangiting sabi nito.
Pilit na ilala ni Mikay ang nangyari noon. And naalala nya bigla na yung guards and even the kasamabahay ay sobrang nagalala when dahil nasira ng CCTV at halatang napasok ang bahay.
"May first kiss na pala ako..."
"Yeah, but don't worry first kiss parin naman yung kanina. First kiss mo from your husband"
In every perfect love story comes a perfect wedding. But don't be confuse, perfect love story doesn't speak about how Prince came into Princess' life, or how they fell in love, not even how long they've been together....
Perfect love story is when you stay inlove, still holding hands, when all around you is falling down.
And that's how our Prince Gino love his Slum girl Princess Mikay.
