Trembling Memories Of The Time

Chapter 8

Ryle's POV

As I planned yesterday for our supposed to be date, I hired someone to organize the place and make it a romantic event. I want to at least give her a memory she could call a once upon a time and a beginning of a love story.

Getting nervous is a normal thing but proposing to her even though I already know her answer is like so pathetic of me. But, I'm happy doing this only for her.

"Dude, you didn't tell us that she is your girlfriend all this time. We thought you're just not interested with girls." He is Alezandro Ramirez, he's also popular with girls but he already like someone though that woman's identity is still unknown.

I don't know but he even hired a private investigators a few times now but she's still no where to be found.

That woman saved him two years ago but before he could even ask for her name she suddenly disappeared like a wind.

"A lot of girls will cry if ever they knew about this." He is Matthew Santiago, he's also popular with girls but like me he already has a fiancée, too, but it's still a secret from outside though, I, too don't know who that woman is but he said, that woman doesn't like people gossiping about her so yeah, it's a secret.

"Why would they? I didn't paid any attention to them since the beginning." I'm busy with checking all the pictures that the organizer sent me from the that place.

And my attention would never be on women. That would be only a waste of time for me.

"Yeah, but you know that woman named Lindsey Ocampo? She's crazy for you, dude!" Who?

"I don't know anyone with that name." The place is quite great after they has arranged it. In fact it looks amazing. Romantically arranged!

"You don't? She's always following you, though?" I don't know anyone with that name.

"Yeah, I often see her looking at you and she even gave you chocolates last Valentine's day." I don't really remember.

"Dude, she's our classmate in elementary. She even confessed to you." Nope, not a bit of memory of a girl confessing to me. I don't think I'm that popular to be confessed.

"Even if you say all that, I don't really know her." And I never made any woman my friend nor an acquaintance.

I asked Yunnie to be my girlfriend because I also don't know the reason. When I saw her at the party even though she's not smiling I found her beautiful. Her actions are also funny and found myself laughing whenever she looked irritated by people whose trying to approach her.

And I find her different from other people around her and I mean that in a good way. I think that time, she swayed my heart big time.

But when I realized that she was looking at my brother, I felt something on my chest tightened that it made me feel breathless. My chest that time was throbbing. I don't like how I felt also I have this feeling that I want her to be mine even though, I'm not so sure.

I made my move on her and confessed my feelings for her but she rejected me. Then I pursued her.......more like I annoyed her until she said yes to me. She was really cool and hard to court but it's all worth the efforts!

"All set!" I'll just have to wait for the class to end.

Yunnie's POV

Right after the class ended Ryle was already standing outside of my classroom with a wide smile. And once again my heart melted. Ugh. He's just too adorable and it's not good for my heart!

When we are both already riding his car he blindfolded my eyes.

"What are you doing?" I know that he is going to bring me in a especial place but is a blindfold necessary?

"Just relax, it's a surprise." Surprise? Isn't this a date? Is he planning something?

If that's the case then I'll just let him do what he prepared for this date.

"Is it far?" The road seems not that good, the ride's so shaky.

"We're almost there." I think we've been driving for twenty five minutes now, though it's smooth but I'm getting dizzy by the shaky trip. Where the hell are we?

"Alright, we're here." I felt the car stopped and now that it's quiet, I can hear something from afar. Familiar.

"Don't take it off yet, okay?" Is that a wave?

"Okay." I concentrated to hear it clearly and I'm really hearing the waves! Did he brought me in a beach? What are we going to do here?

He guided me when getting off of the car. Hmm, it's really the sea, I can smell it. And the sounds are more clear now.

"Walk carefully." The ground is soft, means I'm stepping on a sand. " We're almost at the spot." He's holding my hands.

"A little bit more...more...and....there! Stand right there and don't move until I said you could." I nodded to him and patiently waited for him to say it.

What's taking him too long? I heard footsteps walking near me. I'm about to move my hands but Ryle suddenly talked.

"You can remove your blindfold now." I can sense the happiness in his tone. I took off slowly the blindfold to adjust my vision that is a little blurry. I blinked three times before I could see the place.

I automatically smiled when I saw how fascinating this place with decoration. This was the place I said yes to him to be his girlfriend.

It's romantically decorated and just right before the sun could set. There's a lot of lights surrounding us but it's still off, there's tables and chairs. Petals of red roses are scattered everywhere I stand with candles. And in front of me is Ryle..........kneeling while holding an open box with a diamond ring in it.

"Yunnie, my baby, my future wife, will you let me take the pleasure to be with you for eternity? Will you marry me? " Oh God! Do you really have to asked that?

"Yes, of course, yes!" He stood up and wore the ring on my ring finger then kissed my lips with gentleness. I can hear the people around us cheering for us.

He really prepared a proper proposal for our engagement. I didn't know that he will be this thoughtful. I never even thought that Ryle will propose to me since we were dating secretly back then and there's a sudden announcement that we're engaged with each other.

Since we're already engaged, the thought never crossed my mind.

"Congrats, I'm Matthew Santiago, Ryle's best friend." He hand shake my hand then another man came.

"Congratulations too, I'm Alezandro Ramirez, Ryle's best friend too." He also hand shake my hand.

Everyone was congratulating us and I was more surprised to see our family here. My mom, dad, and brother and his father, and brother.

Hah....this is really a good start of our story. I just hope that nothing interfere us.

I might do something unpleasant. Let me enjoy this moment today.
