Love and Desire(#5)

EPILOGUE

"Love is fair and even smart people will eventually fall when Cupid hit them with his love arrow. It won't make you stupid like everyone said but it'll just give you lessons that can't be learn from any school. You might get hurt, but have a little more patience because you'll get what you deserve and when you're lucky enough, you'll receive blessings beyond your wishes. God's surprises are really amazing and don't forget to love yourself, before anyone and anything else."

EPILOGUE

NADINE JULIANNA RODRIGUEZ

"I remember trying not to stare the first time I laid my eyes on you. My friends told me that I should stay away from you because you are Nadine and no one messes with you." He said then chuckled. I simply gave his friends a sideway glances but they just raised their peace sign as their smile became wider.

"But then, I got hit by Cupid so I continued making my moves to get close to you. Luckily, I nailed it." Tumawa ulit siya pero nagbago rin ang tibay ng boses niya.

He sighed again and I squeezed his hand.

"Being your partner in almost everything was pure heaven. We got too close and I got the chance know you better. You became my source of strength, my light, my forever gorgeous and smart baby." Tumawa ulit kami ng mahina pero siya, pigil na pigil na ang kanyang luha.

"And you, became my dream." His tears started to fall. "My ultimate dream." He sighed then smiled at me.

"I am not a perfect man, but being with you today is beyond perfection. God gave me you and I promise to be your best friend. I'll let you fight your own battles but will tap in when you needed help. I promise to share my experiments and make sure that I'll leave a hot coffee for you. I promise to hold your hand every chance I get. I promise to defend you to others, even if you are wrong but talk to your privately. And I promise to put your happiness before mine. I love you so much Nadine, you and our baby are my life." He said, blinking his tears away then slipped the ring on my finger.

I looked up to him then gave my most sincere smile. I can't help but to cry before I could even utter a sound. He just wiped my tears away. "That's alright. I love you." He said as I took a deep sigh.

"Kier, you are strong, smart, funny and very handsome." I answered to his words a while back. He gave me a grin.

"I know that love is magical but you took me to a different world and showed me that love is not just magical but it is everything. Love is fun, love is pain, love is a feeling you can't resist." I said, remembering how love turned our world upside down.

My tears began to fall again and he keeps on wiping it. Nakikita ko rin na umiiyak ang pamilya ko at pati na rin ang mga pamilya ni Kier.

"I prayed continuously for my husband and the fact that you are standing in front of me today completely exceeds any expectations that I had. I have never felt so loved, so cared for and so cherished by someone. You encourage me to be the woman that God created me to be and you accept me for who I am. Your faith inspires me, your drive to seek the truth and love compels me. I am so proud today to call you mine and to become your wife. I have so much respect for you. Everything I have is yours now, I give myself completely and freely to you. I commit myself to you and I promise to be faithful to you. I love you Kier, with all my heart." I told him, crying then slipped the ring on his finger.

Then he pulled me closer, gave me a kiss like it was our first time. Then our guests cheered and clapped their hands happily.
