We Got Married

CHAPTER NINETEEN

CHAPTER NINETEEN

Pagdating ng Saturday, I was rummaging through our fridge and cabinets at nakita kong halos wala na kaming stock. Pinagtyagaan ko na lang yung last box ng pancake mix and fried our last bacon.

Pagbaba nya he’s all clean and bathed. Umupo na siya sa dining table namin.

“Xander wala na tayong stocks” sabi ko sabay subo ng pancakes.

“Talaga?”

“Yap! Last na yan” sabay turo ko sa pancakes nya.

“Then we should head to the grocery”

“You really think so?” I said sarcastically.

Kinurot nya lang yung pisngi ko.

“Let’s go on a date” sabi nya.

Nabilaukan naman ako bigla sa sinabi nya.

“I’m sorry?” sabi ko pagkainom ko ng juice.

“I said let’s go on a date” sabi nya ng natatawa.

“What kind of date?” tanong ko.

“What do normal couples do for a date? Alam mo yun, movies, a bit of shopping tapos eating out, then grocery” sabi nya like he’s a genius.

Hmm... A normal date with my husband. Why does that appeal me? Hindi ko maiwasang mapangiti sa sinabi nya.

“Okay, on one stipulation” sabi ko.

“Ano?” pagtataka nya.

“Let’s wear our wedding rings”

It was his turn na mabilaukan sa sinabi ko. As in nakakatawa siyang mabulunan.

“Are you serious?” tanong nya pagkainom nya ng tubig.

“Yes” I said, forcing myself not to laugh.

“Why?” tanong nya.

Napakunot yung noo ko sa sinabi nya. Ayaw ba nya? Was I expecting too much from him??

“Well... Alam mo yun, naisip ko lang. Mahirap na kasi maraming tao sa mall tapos madaming babae na lalapit sayo at huhubaran ka sa paningin. Para lang may warning na silang may asawa ka na. But kung ayaw mo, okay lang din. I mean baka masya-” but he cut me off by kissing me.

“Wala kong sinabing ayaw ko. Nagulat lang ako dahil I’d never thought you’d want to wear them” sabi nya sakin, yung ngiti nya abot hanggang tenga.

“Well, I thought just for today. Alam mo yun” sabi ko.

“Alam ko. I’m not gonna force you to wear it everyday Andy. Pero the idea coming from you is just heavenly” sabi nya sakin.

I can’t help but blush and smile. Natutuwa kong I’m unconciously making him happy. Yung tipong di ko naman sinasadya pero sobrang malaking bagay at sobrang ikinatutuwa na nya.

After breakfast, naligo na ko’t nagbihis na kami ng pang-alis. Cute nga namin eh, naka-white siya tapos naka-black ako, para kaming cookies and cream! Hehehe...

Tas naglista muna kami ng supplies na kailangan namin before driving ourselves to the mall.

Nasa parking na kami nung nilabas nya yung wedding rings namin. It really is beautiful. Gold with a silver border tas may maliliit na diamonds na nakabaon yung akin.
