Chloe
Today's our wedding day, I couldn't contain my happiness.
I was having my make up done when I received a gift from Iñigo, inside the box were 3 blue roses. "Something blue, put it on your bouquet... See you later. Can't wait to finally say 'I DO' to you. I love you heaps." I read the note.
I was crying my heart out after getting the gift, he is just the sweetest. Charmelle, my bestfriend who flew all the way from Boston with her husband Clint and son Logan, scolded and hushed me from crying because my make up will be ruined. Our bestfriend, Maxi, flew in from Greece with his partner Ryan. They too have a gift for me, 3 months' supply of edible lingerie.
"Hoy galing Boston pa yang mga yan ha. Dinamihan kona para may honeymoon baby agad kayo ni Iñigo." Charmelle said.
I got emotional again at the thoughtful yet naughty gesture.
This time Maksi spoke, "I'm so happy for you, girl. I know how long you've waited for this. Biro mo pinuntahan moko sa Santorini para makapag unwind at makalimot ka kay Iñigo, pero inisnab mo lang ang mga Greek hunks doon dahil mahal na mahal mopa si Papa Iñigo. Naloka ako diyan, Dai Charmelle, ha."
Charmelle seemed very concerned with my make up, wiped away my tears and said, "Of course, you two are meant for each other. I only wish you happiness and more babies, sayang naman ang lahi niyo kung di kayo magpaparami. I love you, girlfriend. O suot mona isa diyan sa ilalim ng wedding gown mo, surprise mo kay Iñigo yan. Tignan natin kung di luluwa mata nun mamaya sa wedding night niyo. Kuhanan mo nga ng video yung reaction niya para may pagtawanan tayo."
We laughed then we hugged each other.
Charmelle said, "Uy, anong oras na? Let's not get your prince waiting. Tara na!"
