Ryan lead me to a dark room with just candlelights brightening all around us. Meron ding chandelier na naka-hang sa gitna.

"Here," Sabi niya sa akin matapos niya akong pinaupo sa kabilang dulo ng mesa. It has a very beautiful centerpiece. May tatlong scented candle at bulaklak iyon. 

She smiled. "Hmm... how romantic," She said approvingly.

Ryan chuckled as he sat on the seat across mine. "Let's eat," He said and held up a mini bell and rang it.

Natawa naman siya sa ginawa nito but her laughter dissolved in mid-air when she saw Kaleb walked inside a room full-dressed in a waiter outfit. Kaleb winked at her bago nito nilagay ang isang plato sa kanya. She thanked her son. Nag-gentleman bow naman ito sa kanya bago naglakad palabas.

"You are such a scheme. Ginawa mo pang waiter ang anak natin." 

Nagkibit-balikat ito at nagsimulang kumain. Napailing na lang siya bago nagsimula na ring kumain. 

It's their third anniversary already after they patched things up during Granville University's Grand Reunion. Nanligaw ito sa kanya (Well, alam naman nitong sasagutin niya ito) but he tried his very best to make everything normal between them. Hindi sila nagmadali, they took their time. And after five months, they got married again. That time, it was real and there's no pretensions.

Ryan cleared his throat. Her eyes met his and she could see playfulness in those. "It's time for dessert," Anito.

Ano? Hindi ko pa nga natatapos ang steak ko. Reklamo niya sa lihim.

Pero nawala ang lihim na pagrereklamo niya ng makita ang two years old kambal nila na naka-ngisi at may dalang platito ng sans rival. She couldn't help it, nagbabanta ang kanyang luha mula sa kanyang mga mata. She held the twins in her arms.

"Happy An-niphersary, Mommy and Daddy." sabi ni Jade sa kanya pouting her lips after she kissed my cheeks. Jade ran to hug her dad also.

"I love you, Mom." Sabi naman ni Renz sa kanya and kissed her on the cheeks.

"Oh, I love you too, sweetie." She said. Lumapit sa kanila si Kaleb para sunduin na ang mga kapatid nito. She mouthed 'I Love You' to him and he smiled and mouthed 'I Love You Too'. Kaleb hugged Ryan, kinusot naman nito ang buhok ng anak.

When the kids are out, Ryan reached out for her hand. "How about the dessert?" Tanong niya dito.

"The dessert can wait." He told her. She raised her brow and chuckled as she took his hand.

Dinala siya ni Ryan sa gitna ng room kung saan nasa ibabaw nila ang chandelier. Kinuha nito ang kaliwang kamay niya at pinatong sa balikat nito. His had then went to her waist and moved her closer to him.

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they hold


"I could never imagine a life without you, Jane. Thank you for waiting for me. While I was searching for myself, I couldn't help thinking about you and thinking about us. I prayed to God everyday to give you all the strength to wait for me and I prayed too for myself, to have courage facing you without anything else, just me and my love for you,"

And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?
