The Only One I Need (On-going)

CHAPTER 12

CHAPTER 12

Ang host ng party ay si Astrid. Everyone clapped their hands as we walk towards the stage. Nandito rin ang pamilya ni Xarina, her grandparents and her father. Nandito lahat pati ang business associates namin.

Kung ako lang ang masusunod gusto ko kami lang ang naroon. Wala ng iba pang bisita but it's important to announce my engagement to everyone.

a little speech from Astrid at ibinigay na niya sa amin ang mikropono. Ako ang naunang magsalita. Imbes na sa mga bisita ako tumingin ay nakatingin ako kay Xarina.

I held her hands tightly.

"Exactly twenty three years and seven months ago. I met a woman at the mall. On that day is my sixth birthday. She's expecting a child which is already six months old on her womb. I asked her to give the pair of my ring to her child and saying 'She the one I need' and now she's here. standing beside me, the one I love the most.'" Then I kissed the back of her hand.

I could hear everyone gasped. Well, sino ba naman ang gagawa ng ganoong bagay lalo na at isang bata. Mangangako na gusto niyang maging fiancé ang isang batang nasa sinapupunan ng kaniyang ina.

"Then suddenly I found her the woman that I fell in love with. My fiancé, Xarina Vergara. For the first time, I got attracted to a woman who I just met on the road. Not knowing that she my fiancé. My unknown fiancé, finally you're mine. I love you, Xarina."

I saw tears escaped form her eyes, tears of happiness.

I kissed her on the lips.

"I used to laugh when I remember how I got this ring." She raised her hands and shows everyone her engagement ring. "I was just a six month old unborn baby in my mother's womb and I'm already engaged but thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for making me believed into something that others may find overrating and they called that thing destiny."

"It sounds so clichéd but it's really unbelievable how two people met again and fall in love with each other. In a short span – I ran away, I got scared, I fell in love. I got scared that it just a dream but you held my hand and assured me that I don't need to be scared. Thank you for coming into my life Charles. I love you so much."

My heart is filled with so much happiness, that overwhelming feeling that makes me wanna cry. Hindi ako magsasawa na sabing mahal ko siya at ang marinig na mahal niya ako.

I really can't wait to marry this woman. Make her mine alone.

Niyakap niya ako ng mahigpit habang tumutulo ang kaniyang mga luha. We we're both crying with tears of happiness. Now I know why people cried when they were happy. Naiisip ko dati na they were just exaggerating things. I don't care if people think of me being exaggerated.

Naghiwalay lang kami ng tapikin na ako sa balikat ni Papa. I wiped my tears away and as well with Xarina's. I smiled at her. ang sarap ng pakiramdam ko. hindi maalis sa aking mukha ang ngiti, like it was plastered to my face. Xarina is also smiling. Hindi ko nakita na sumimangot siya mula pa kanina.

We entertained some guest na ang daming tanong.

I never used in talking a lot of people kung hindi naman talaga importante but Xarina is talking nicely to them like she knew them before. Maraming humanga sa kaniya. kahit ako ay humahanga sa kaniya dahil nagagawa niyang pakiharapan ang mga taong nandito sa party kahit na may ibang tinitingnan siya ng masama.

Some people tried to intimidate us but she just brushes it off.

Nakita naming dalawa na papalapit sa amin si Kristyna na kanina lang ay kasama nila Mama at Papa.
