T.L. Ako Sa'yo

Chapter 70 (Memories)

Wallace's POV

"Yes Wallace, I will marry you."

I froze for a moment. I wanted to pinch myself to make sure I'm not just dreaming. I held her face. She smiled.

"Yes Wallace, I will marry you."

"Yes Wallace, I will marry you."

"Yes Wallace, I will marry you."

Paulit-ulit iyon sa utak ko. Parang musika sa pandinig ko iyon. I'd never thought in a million years she would say yes to me. I just took my chances when I asked her to marry me. I was in awe that I didn't know what to say.

"Thia..."

I pulled back my hand coz I think I was trembling. She took my hands and held them. Her hands were warm so as her smile.

"You may think that I just agreed to marry you because of this baby. But Wallace, I'm giving you the chance you're asking for." Wika niya.

"R-really?" tanong ko as I embraced her.

"Pero you still have time to think about it, if you really want to do this." Wika niya.

"No Thia, there is no backing down." tugon ko.

"Thank you Wallace."

"I love you Thia."

She just hugged me back.

"I'll say it to you when I'm ready, when I really feel it..."

"Shhh, don't pressure yourself. Hindi kita minamadali. Take your time. I'm willing to wait no matter how long it takes." Wika ko.

"Thank you." she said as she smiled.

Her face was pale. She loss a little weight. Her lips were dry. Her eyes were also pale and I know her smiles are fake. If only I could do something to bring back the Thia I knew before.

Drew's POV

"Really???" sigaw ni Sheena.

We are at Thia's condo right now, they just announced that they are engaged.

"But really?" hindi parin makapaniwala si Sheena.

"Hun, it's not that surprising. They're having a baby, natural they'll get married soon." Wika ko.

"Alam na ba nina tita ito?" tanong ni Sheena ignoring me.

"We will tell them soon." Wika ni Ace.

"Congrats bro." wika ko as I hugged him.

"Thank you." tugon ni Ace.

"Oh my God." Wika ni Sheena as she started tearing up.

"Hey hun, come here." Wika ko as I embraced her.

"Ano ka ba Sheena..."

"Hun, they're just announcing they're getting married, why are you so emotional?" tanong ko.

"Eh, kasi naman eh."

"Come here." Wika ni Thia as she embraced my wife.

I looked at Ace. He was smiling looking at them.

"Isn't it great how time passed so quickly that we are now at our marrying age. We just used to meet at the school canteen back in high school. Man I feel so old."

"Bakit nga pala kayo nandito? We were about to call you guys to tell you about this." Tanong ni Wallace.

"Oh, right. Hun. Tell them." wika ko as Sheena is still wiping her tears.
