True Love Wins

••**••

"When was the first time we met? Ahm let me think.. ah i know," tiningnan ko muna ang mahal kong asawa na nakaupo katabi ni mommy. I was asked by Yuki na syang host nitong reception namin to share our love story ni Sarah..Our Love story ni Sarah was never the typical boy meet girl and when their eyes me, automatically, they fell in love. Ours were different, ours were unique. And of course my memory lane with Sarah will always be my favorite rewind . .

I was tapping my chin as I look straight at my wife, who's sitting beside mom and dad. She has this giddy smile plastered on her face. .Alam kong iniisip nito kung papaano ko ikukwento ang love story namin sa lahat. .

"You were on your highschool uniform then, the typical pretty high schooler with her pony tail and loud laughters, but, you know what makes you different from others? Your gutz. You're a smart kid. Well all of your were smart.. but well i got an early favorite kiddo then, you're effortlessly pretty and smart. And mom loves you automatically the first time she saw you. Me, im always then "indenial man".. i had a crush on you. Ayoko kasing tinitingnan ka ng iba mong kasama. I even want you for my team. "

" Remember when you cried nung dinala kita sa opisina ni mommy para ipagamot ang sugat mo? " she was nodding. " that moment I felt so scared. .I don't know why .. Pero yung vulnerability mo made me want to be a man for you. . Ayokong nasasaktan ka. And i found it weird, but the same time, my heart beats abnormally .. "

" Tapos you're so sungit pa, that i branded you Brat. .Brat . .yan ang tawag ko sayo noon. .Ang gutzy mo na tapos ang bratty mo pa. But i found it very cute and charming. Iba kasi talaga ang nagagawa ng 'crush'. ."

" Im so kilig when I heard the three of you nina Klang and Yuki talking about me. .You had a crush on me. . " and everyone in the room started to laugh and say  'awwww' . I think kinikilig din sila.

I saw how she raised an eyebrow on me. Di ko kasi sinabi dito na crush ko sya noon pa. Pero ang totoo kasi, torpe lang ako. Crush na crush ko si Sarah. Yun charm nya, yung tawa nya, and her beautiful face...

" Pero nung nakita kong nagpapapansin sayo ang ibang boys your age , i cornered them. I even warned them of taking them out from the activity if they continued making pansin on you."

I winked at her nang nakita kong nanlaki ang mata nito sa mga narinig mula sa akin. Mom was laughing same with dad. Sina Klang at Yuki nag high five pa. Alam kasi nila ang kwentong to!

" totoo . .tanong mo pa sina klang at yuki" sabi ko, tila kasi di makapaniwala si Sarah. I saw her moved her face to look at her two beshies, and the two just nod at her.

Then I felt silent a bit. Seryoso kong tinitigan ang asawa ko. Masaya akong makitang masaya ito at isa ako sa mga rason kung bakit masaya ang puso nito ngayon.

"Then a tragedy happened..We were so sorry for your parents' lost, and from then on, i vowed infront of your parents grave that I will take care of you, no matter what.. that i will love you in my own ways, and That I will be here with you till the the very end..and thank God i was able to be given the chance to.."

Now she's wiping her tears. I could even hear some cry and some 'singhot' from the audiences. Andito din ang dating kapibahay ni Sarah and her childhood friends. I know how protective of them to Sarah, she's well-loved by everyone.
