A man who can get everything he wants in just a snap except for one thing that he wanted all his life. A woman who has everything but the one thing that matters to her most, her freedom. A past. A promise. And a chance meeting. Will emotions long fo...
Natapos na ang mga announcements pati introductions. Nagsalita na rin sina Mom and Dad pati sina tito at tita. Still, Ark's look bothers me. Nakaupo na rin kami sa gitna habang may kung ano-anong sinasabi yung MC. Hindi ko na actually naiintindihan yung iba niyang sinasabi e.
"Aren't you having fun?"
Halos magsitayuan naman lahat ng balahibo ko sa katawan dahil sa bulong niya. I turn left and notice him leaning a bit closer to me, halos isang maling tulak na lang at mahahalikan ko na siya.

Hindi naman sinasadya, but I ended up staring at him. His eyes actually caught my attention. Nakakainis. Ang hirap basahin ng mga mata niya. There are so many things in his eyes, but I can't understand a thing. Dahan dahan naman bumaba ang tingin ko sa ibang parte ng mukha niya and all I could say is I may be a damn lucky woman to have him as my fiance kahit ayaw ko. No wonder, everyone wants me dead right now. Masyadong perfect ang mukha niya. Thick eyebrows, black-hooded eyes, perfect jawline, and most especially his pinkish lips na ang sarap halikan.
"Ehem, lovebirds, can we have your attention please?"
Sabay naman kaming napalingon sa nagsalita and my jaw almost drop when I realize it was Tito and Dad holding the mic in front of us. Nakangisi sila sa amin kagaya noong iba pang guests. And shit lang, alam kong namumula ako ngayon.
Fudge. Nahuli akong nakatitig sa kanya.
"As much as we'd love to see you so in love with each other, my daughter-in-law," nagtawanan naman sila sa panguna na ni tito at tita. "We need your attention right now."
"Son, you can stare at her all you want after this," dagdag pa ni Dad. Argh! Nakakahiya!
"Kidding aside," they both turn away from us and I did the same. But I can feel him staring at me." This may have shock everyone, more on my daughter, but I am happy that all of you are here to celebrate with us." I keep silent as I listen to Dad, "Honestly, it was years ago when everything happened that decided for this moment. One question changed everything."
Those last two sentence caught my attention. What is Dad talking about? May nangyari ba na hindi ko alam?
"As the world knows, our families have been friends and partners since we don't know," everyone laugh at what Tito said, "It's also known how close our wives are. It was actually their idea to marry off their children one day back in high school. A very wishful thinking for them because malay ba nila kung pareho ng gender yung baby nila right? But as you can see, by the time they mey again, we already have our three boys that time, while Mari, on the other hand, is already pregnant with her own. The day Seraphim was born, we were just waiting for their development. Because we already foreseen the bond that they have as evident on their fondness of her. It was fine, not until someone approached me that changed everything." Tito glance on our way and smile, "Wanna know who that someone is?"
