Saint Montenegro [UNDER REVISION]

Part 9: Contented

It's been weeks since nag simula akong suyuin ni Saint. At masasabi ko din sa pursigido siya sa pag susuyo sa'kin. Kahit na alam ko sa sarili ko na mali ang ginagawa namin dahil ako'y nasa kumbento.

"Ano nanamang iniisip mo hmm?" tanong ni Saint na katabi ko lamang naka upo dito sa swing.

Ngumiti ako at nag kibit balikat. Naramdaman ko naman ang biglang pag hawak niya sa aking kamay, I felt him gently squeeze it. I felt the wamth of his skin holding my hand. I sighed.

"You're so beautiful Mary, do you know that?" he asked

I chuckled "Oo. Sa bawat araw ba naman na sabihin mo yan eh. Naniwala na tuloy ako" sagot ko naman na nag patawa sakanya.

I smiled as I watch him laugh. Ang gwapo talaga ni Saint, I won't lie. Any girls will for sure fall in love with him. Maybe some boys too. Haha.

Pano kaya kung hindi ako pumasok ng kumbento? Mag kakakilala kaya kami? Ano din kaya ang course ko? I've dreamt of being a teacher once. Baka sakali ay guro na ako kung hindi lamang ako pumasok ng kumbento.

"I forgot to give you something.." anito ay bahagyang may kinuha sa bulsa nito. In his hands is a small velvet box. "This.."

Binuksan niya ang kahon, it revealed a very beautiful necklace with seashells pendant on it. with some rhinestones around the shell. It's very beautiful.

"I want to give this to you. I inherited it from my grandma. Sabi niya, ibigay ko daw ito sa babaeng pinaka mamahal ko. A-and I think I already found her.. "

Tinignan ko ito "S-sino naman?"

"You"

Nangiti naman ako sa sinabi nito't biglang tumungo sa hiya. He lifted my chin up making me face him, he flashed a smile.

Tumayo siya't pumunta sa likod ko at kinabit ang kuwintas. Hinawakan ko ang pendant, hindi padin ako makapaniwala na saakin niya ito ibibigay.

"You're a very special person to me Mary. I love you, and that will never change.. You're my everything Mary. And I will do everything to make you mine" anito.

Bumalik siya sa harap ko ay lumuhod upang makapantay ako. He held my hand once again and kissed it. I smiled.

And for the first time. I felt really happy. Contented.
