Nico's POV

Pinapanood ko lang ang asawa kong nakikipag-usap sa mga kaibigan niya via skype. Nasa kama kami, habang nasa laptop naman ako nagbababasa ng emails, dahil natambakan na ako, ngunit mahirap magconcentrate lalo na kapag ang asawa mo nasa tabi mo lang at ang suot manipis na damit lang, hindi maitago ang katawan nitong parang hinubog ng isang dakilang sculptor.

Nakahiga ito sa tiyan habang ang dalawang siko nakapatong sa kama ang kayang dalawang paa nakapatong sa tiyan ko, kaharap niya ang laptop. Nakafull screen pa ito kaya kita ko rin ang kaibigan nito na nagkukumpulan. 

Excited nitong ibinalita sa mga kaibigan ang proposal ko this morning. She was surprised at napaiyak pa ito sa saya. Hindi nito akalain na magpopropose pa ako samantalang kasal na kami. We went to Venice by plane and it took us four hours before we got there. Sephora helps me set the lunch on a Gondola.

While the gondoliers steered the Gondola around the the place, we see beautiful scenes, while having lunch peacefully. The gondoliers even sang us beautiful song as he steers. We saw the local culture and architecture and it's just breath taking. And as soon as the gondolier steered back routes, I took the ring out of my pocket where I kept the ring as soon as Sephora handed it to me this morning without her knowledge. I popped the question out, and she was speechless, her palm covering her mouth, her eyes glistening from her tears.

I can still remember how her eyes widened in surprised...

"Ayeng," bigla itong tumingin sa akin, inalis ang mga mata sa aming paligid at itinuon sa akin ng nagtatanong na mga mata. Kita ko ang kasiyahan sa mga mata nito. Kinakabahan naman ako. Kahit na kasal na kami, hindi iyon nakabawas sa kabang biglang pumuno sa aking puso. Lumunok muna ako. "I want to tell you how sorry I was for treating you badly, and how damn lucky I am for receiving such forgiveness from you that easily. I want you to know that from this day on, my life has only one sole purpose, that is to make you happy. Will you give me the chance to make it up for all the time wasted time, for all the harsh treatment, for hurting you, and most of all, for sacrificing your happiness for me. Will you give me a reason to live, by being my wife?" Naramdaman ko ang pag-alpas ng luha sa aking mga mata ng tumango ito pagkatapos ng maikling pagkakatitig sa diyamanteng singsing. Palipat-lipat ang mga mata nito sa akin at sa singsing, hindi parin ito makapaniwala.

"Yes!" words that almost took my breath away. Para akong nabunutan din ng tinik.

One word that made my heart swelled with overwhelming happiness.

The ring fits her finger like a glove. And it looks beautiful on her.


Napangiti ako ng diko namamalayan habang nakatitig ako sa likod ng aking asawa.

Even the gondolier looks so happy when she finally said yes and I, I was still in awe. I felt like I was the one who was surprised. I did it. I made her happy and that's all that matters to me.

Making her happy is my happiness.

"Patingin ng ring, dali!" biglang napatingin ako sa camera kung saan ang mga kaibigan niya nagtutulakan upang makita lamang ang singsing na bigay ko. 

Napailing nalang ako. Kahit kailan hindi ko maintindihan ang mga babae. Konting bagay lang, napakalaking bagay na sa kanila.

"Aww.. Ang ganda!" Parang niiyak na sabi ni Fay na ikinatawa ni Ayeng.

"Salamat," proud nitong sabi. 

"Siya ba ang pumili?" tanong ni Zoey na ikinalingon sa akin ni Ayeng. Nakatitig ngayon sa akin ang mga mata nitong puno ng kuryosidad.
