"Wake up now, Ate Saphie!" boses ni Miks ang gumising saakin. Napatayo ako at binuksan ang pintuan. "What it is, Miks? Sobrang aga pa." I asked.
Mikaela rolled her eyes. "I know right! But someone keep saying that he wants to see you. Nakakainis kaya. Wait I'm gonna call him nalang."
I arched my eyebrow. Sino namang magbabalak na bisitahin ako kung hindi ko pa pinaalam sa buong mundo ang pagdating ko?
Pinahid ang konting hibla ng buhok na napunta na sa mukha ko. But I automatically stop when I saw the familiar reflection I've been longing for the past two years in my life.
"Daniel.." I whispered against my breath.
He didn't answer. Instead he suddenly pulled me into his arms, encircling his hands on my waist. I closed my eyes. The man I'm hugging right now was the man I loved. He's still the same. Nothing change. His smell, his looks, his charisma, his smiles, his touch and even his prescene that can make my heartbeat fast.
"Fuck. You didn't even change a bit.." I felt his voice crack. ".. you're still my wife."
****
"You may now kiss the bride,"
I smiled as I feel his soft lips touched mine. Finally, matatawag ko na rin ang sarili kong Dela Cruz. Sobrang tagal ko din 'tong pinangarap. Sobrang tagal.
The moment he uttered 'I do', I almost feel like I'm jumping with so much joy. Of course, marrying a Daniel Dela Cruz is not a joke.
"Congrats, pre." I saw Thunder hugged Daniel.
Nandoon din yung mga kaibigan niya. If I'm not mistaken, si Blue yung isa. We'll paano ko naman siya makakalimutan kung parehas kami ng ibig-sabihin ng pangalan, diba?
"Ate Saphie!" I diverted my gazed at Mikaela who's now looking fabulous with her sapphire long gown. "Miks.." I replied with a smile.
"You're so beautiful, Ate Saphie. Siguro, If I'm with Hugh right now. He's going to take a picture with you," she giggled.
Natawa ako ng mahina. She's always been like that. Masyadong maraming papuri. We'll mas gugustuhin ko pang makita ang ganitong side niya kaysa sa seryoso siya.
Maayos na ang lahat nang napag-desisyunan naming huwag na lamang ipaalam sa labas ang mangyayaring kasalan. I'm a celebrity and I'm aware about how paparazzi does. But hell, my private life is too important to make them break in.
Sinigurado rin nilang sapat ang mga kinuha nilang tauhan dahil narin sa utos ng asawa ko.
Asawa ko.. I smiled inwardly.
"You're look so gorgeous, hija. Maswerte si Daniel sayo." Tita Rebecca said, Daniel's mother.
"Thank you po, Tita." I smiled at her.
Kumunot naman ang noo nito at hinawakan ang kamay ko. "Don't call me Tita. It's Mom, okay? Don't be shy, darling. You're my daughter now."
I shyly nodded. Of course, I had a chance to talk to others unlike Daniel's doing right now. He looks so wasted while busying himself at our seats. He's drunk.
But I still managed to give my best shot on our guest even if his not throwing me any glances. Ni hindi pa nga kami nakakapag-slice ng cake ay kaagad itong uminom. Nasasaktan ako. Sino ba namang bride ang gugustuhing humarap mag-isa sa mga bisita. Wala naman diba?
Dumaan ang ilang oras bago namin napag-desisyunang umuwi. But right now, it's different.
I'm going to be Daniel Dela Cruz prey tonight. On our house. Both of us. Kami lang. I'm willing to give anything for him. Ganon ko siya kamahal.
