BHO: His Secret Agent Pretend Wife (Book 1)

CHAPTER 33

CHAPTER 33

NANGINGINIG ang mga kamay kong nakahawak sa boquet ng bulaklak habang nakatayo ako sa labas ng simbahan. I'll just wait for the signal at may magbubukas non para magsimula akong maglakad. Sa magkabilang gilid ko ay nakatayo roon si Kuya Ethan at si Poseidon.

"Relax."

Binigyan ko ng matalim na tingin si Kuya Ethan na natawa lang sa reaksyon ko. "Lahat na lang kayo yan ang sinasabi sakin."

"Because it's obvious na kinakabahan ka. Konti na lang mukhang hihimatayin ka na." binuntutan pa ni Boss ng tawa ang sinabi niya.

I rolled my eyes at them then I started counting sheep- Wait. Diba pampatulog yon? Mali, mali. I need to count puppies so I can calm down-

Napatili ako ng biglang bumukas ang pinto. Tumawa lang ang dalawang kasama ko at hinawakan ako sa magkabilang braso ng akmang tatakbo na ako palayo sa simbahan. Mukhang nagulat ang mga tao sa loob.

Bumulong sa akin si Poseidon. "Relax-"

"I know!"

Pumiksi ako para pakawalan nila ako at nagdadabog na pumasok ako. Narinig ko pa ang pagtawa nila bago nila ako sinundan.

Amused na nakatingin samin ang mga bisita. Most of them are agents. Nag thumbs up sila dahilan para kahit paano ay mawala ang kaba ko. I can do this. I'm Mishielle Greene. An agent who's tougher than Goliath.

Animong dam na biglang pinakawalan ang kaba kong naramdaman ng magtama ang mga mata namin ni Dale. His eyes twinkled with happiness as he looked at me walking towards him. Walking towards a new beginning.

I always thought that Dale was a threat to my freedom because when we first met my freedom is the only thing that makes me feel happy. And I'm glad to be wrong. Dale is my happiness now. I'd gladly give up everything for him. Dahil mula ng minahal ko siya, alam kong wala ng kahit na anong makapagpapasaya sa akin kung hindi ko siya makakasama.

This is the start of forever. In my heart I know that every day I will spend with him is greater than infinity.

"Take care of my sister." Nagkatinginan sina Poseidon at Kuya Ethan ng parehong mga salita ang namutawi sa bibig nila.

Tumango si Dale at ngumiti. Inilagay ni Poseidon ang kamay ko sa ibabaw ng kamay ni Dale. He squeezed my hand then he lifted it and kissed it. Naluluhang ngumiti ako sa kaniya at sabay na humarap kami sa pari...at sa Diyos.

"We are gathered here today, in the sight of God and these witnesses, to unite Mishiella Greene and Dale Edwin Night in holy matrimony."

Hindi mapapantayan ng kahit na ano ang sayang nararamdaman ko ngayon. I always thought that my life was complete before. Wala na akong hinangad pang kahit na ano dahil para sa akin ay nasa mga kamay ko na lahat ang kailangan ko. Until I met Dale. I never thought I will need anyone as much as I need him. He's the air that I breathe. He is my life.

Marami na kaming pinagdaanan. Ilang beses na inakala ko na mawawala na siya sa akin. Natakot akong mahalin siya dahil alam kong dadating ang oras na kailangan ko siyang pakawalan. Because in this life, I learned that all good things doesn't last. But I'm glad to be wrong. When I fell for Dale, the doubts didn't easily fade away but deep inside my heart I realized that he's the one worth fighting for. We will make this last.

"Dale Edwin Night will you have Mishiella Greene to be your wife, to live together as friend and mate? Will you love her as a person, respect her as an equal, sharing joy as well as sorrow, triumph as well as defeat? And keep her beside you as long as you both shall live?"

"I do."

"Mishiella Greene will you have Dale Edwin Night to be your husband, to live together as a friend and mate? Will you love him as a person, respect him as an equal, sharing joy as well as sorrow, triumph as well as defeat? And keep him beside you as long as you both shall live?"

I swallowed the lump in my throat. I need to calm down and say it clearly.

"I DO!"

Napangiti si Dale maging ang pari ng bigla ko na lang naisigaw ang sagot ko. Namula ang mukha ko pero nginitian ko din siya. 

Inabot sa amin ang mga sing-sing at hindi ko napigilan ang pag-iinit ng mga mata ko. I swear that I'm not usually this emotional. Ngayon lang talaga.

"Dale Edwin Night, before I met you, I thought of myself as a woman who don't know how to love. It didn't matter to me before, because I thought my life was great the way it is. But when I met you, everything changed. I was so cared at first but you wiped away that fear. You irritated me in the worst way possible but you also made me happy in a level that it could almost reach heaven. And In the name of God, I vow to take you as my husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, for as long as we both shall live. This is my solemn vow."

Isinuot ko sa kaniya ang sing-sing at napaangat ako ng tingin ng maramdaman kong pinunasan niya gamit ng likod ng kamay niya ang mga luha ko. He smiled tenderly at me then he started his vow with emotion in his every word.

"Mishiella Greene, before I met you, ang akala ko my life was perfect. I had everything I want. Pero in the same way, I never thought that time will come that I will get married because I didn't want to be tied to anyone. But when I met you, you changed all that. You made me see things in a different way. You taught me how to care and to love. You're like a bullet that struck and pierce my flesh, my heart and my soul. Pero sa lahat ng tinamaan ng bala, ako na ata ang pinaka masaya. Because I know in this moment that I will spend my life with you. And In the name of God, I vow to take you as my wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, for as long as we both shall live. This is my solemn vow."

I looked at the ring when he finally slid it on my finger. Even without a ring or a marriage, we already belong to each other. We just want to promise in front of God that we will always treasure the gift He gave us. That we will always hold on to each other's hand to get through everything.

"I pronounce them to be husband and wife, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dale Edwin Night, you may now kiss the bride."

As his lips finally met mine, I know that I can never ask for anything more. I'm exactly right where I belong.
