I held her hand as we walked down the aisle. Tahimik lang kaming umupo sa gilid saka siya lumuhod para magdasal. I signed of the cross and pray, Thanking God for what He has given to me all this time and for protecting my family  and Thanking Him for the blessings He brought to my life like Mori. Maybe, she's the real purpose why I assigned in Pangasinan. I rejected it a hundred times back then because I don't want to leave my son. Nasanay na kasi akong kasama siya palagi.

I tried going back and fort in Pangasinan and then one day I bump into her, Mori. We accidentally met at the resort when she's delivering seafoods there but that was nothing and the second is when I accidentally splash her the dirty water from the street. I remember, she was totally mad about what I did and that caught my attention. I can't sleep for a two days straight because of her. Every time I closed my eyes, her angry face keeps on popping to my head so I had to review her resume that Manong Inggo gave to me. I don't know why I accepted her with no hesitations.

The next day, I saw her entered the resort with her unique style. She didn't follow Manong Inggo's intruction to wear her supposed uniform and in that I find her pasaway. A total 'Pasaway'.

I didn't expect this to happen. She, me, broken hearted at the same time and now we fall for each other. I hope she would me my last.

"Tara na ba?" tanong ko sa kanya pagkatapos niyang magdasal. Tumango siya kaya tumayo na ako at inilahad ang kamay ko sa kanya. I smile to her before she reach my hands. I lean to her... "We need to go home para makapagpahinga ka pa. Tomorrow will be your day."

Sinamaan niya ako ng tingin saka sinuntok ng mahina ang braso ko pagkalabas namin ng simbahan. "Tigilan mo ko Miguel ha. Sinasabi ko sa'yo hindi ko ipapanalo yun." I laugh at her. She's so cute!

Pinapasok ko muna siya sa kotse saka ako sumakay. "Your seatbelt, love." pagpapaalala ko.

"Love..." tawag nito kaya nilingon ko siya at binagalan ang pagmamaneho.

"I love you!" I supress my smile and look away. This is not me! This is so gay!

She poke my cheek and teases me. "Kinikilig si Boss Love!" panunukso niya. "Stop it." I said while smiling.

"Sabi na eh. Gwapo ng Boss ko!" Nawala yata ang ngiti sa labi ko sa sinabi niya. huh! Boss?? Okay!!

Bumaba agad ako ng kotse ni Boss ng makarating kami sa tapat ng apartment namin ni Apple. Gabi na kami nakarating ni Boss. Pagkabukas ko ng pinto ay nabungadan ko ang nanonood na si Apple. Laking gulat din niya ng buksan ko ang pinto at bigla itong tumayo para lapitan ako.

"Wow!!" Sigaw nito at nilapitan ang mga bitbit kong plastik. Hindi pala ako ang hinihintay niya. "Nasan na yung akin dito? Ang tagal kong hinintay yung pasalubong, ang tagal tagal ninyo!" Binitawan ko ang hawak ko at hinayaan siyang buklatin lahat ng dala ko. Maya maya pa ay pumasok na rin si Boss.

"Goodevening, Apple!" Bati nito sa kanya. Ngumiti ito at nilapitan naman siya. "Talagang good ang evening..." panimula nito ang ngumiti ng nakakaloko habang nilalapitan kaming dalawa ni Boss.

"...So, anong balita sa Baguio trip niyo?"

Tinignan ko si Boss at sabay kaming ngumiti sa isa't-isa. Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko saka itinaas namin sa ere ang kamay namin.

"Kami na!"

Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Apple sabay takip sa bibig niya. Shock ang lola niyo. Hahaha. "Kyaaaah!!!" Hiyaw na naman nito saka kami niyakap ni Boss. "Congrats... Congrats..." sabi nito.
