Until She Noticed [Completed]

Chapter Forty

We stayed silent in a past minutes while he's hugging me tight. He breath heavily like he feel so safe and contented. I closed my eyes and praying that this is not a dream.

"Do you love me?" He ask making me to open my eyes. I will never love him. That's what i believe when i was young but everything changed now.

I nodded and buried my face on his chest. His hug become tighter.

"I wanna hear it." He said softly in my ears. I look at him and trying to recognize his expression but it's too difficult. I only smile.

"I love you..." I said and kiss him quickly on his lips.

"Damn..." He cursed and kiss me too but this time it's longer.

Gusto ko pa sanang mag-usap kami tungkol sa mga problema namin pero masyado na kong naliliyo sa mga halik niya. He stopped and try to kiss me lightly but in the end it become harder. I can feel his hand inside my shirt and squeeze my boobs while his other hand trying to unclasped my bra. I stopped to get some air and he just look at me  and wait patiently. He kissed my shoulder up to my neck and left ear.

"Marry me again..." He whisper and kiss me on my head. W-What?

"Are you p-proposing?" Kabado kong tanong. Seriously?

"Yes..." He said lazily and kiss my hand where our wedding ring is. I bite my lower lip and think about his family.

"Giselle hate me now." Nakita ko ang pag-kunot ng kanyang noo.

"And i understand." Dagdag ko pa at muling naalala ang kanyang mga sinabi.

"I don't want my family to meddle with my problems. This is just about us." Umiling ako. I reach his jaw and smile.

"They are your family Terrence. You're lucky to have them." I said and start to walk towards the couch not just to sit but to wiped another of my tears while remembering my mother and father.

"You're my wife and soon we will make our own family." He said and kneeled in front of me. The thought of having kids make me more happy.

"I know what happened to your family." He said seriously. W-What?   He buried his face on my neck habang ang mga nararamdaman ko noon na para saakin lamang ay unti-unti ng nababasag.

"I'm sorry if i'm not here for you, i really regret it." He added.

I thought i'm done with that pain, in that tears, i thought i already overcome it. Akala ko nakaya kong ako lang but no. I'm still not okay, i still don't accept everything, i'm still in pain. No one dare help me but myself.

"My father is already dead..." I said while the hope is really gone. It's a dead end for me. I will never meet my true parents.

"I love my f-family but i want to meet my real parents but G-God won't let me..." He hug me tighter and just listen.

"Then, i realize i d-deserve this... All the blames, disappointments, and the pain because i'm selfish..." My heart become heavy thinking about everything again.

"No... I'm proud to you. You handle all the pain without anyone and i'm sorry because i'm one of them." He wiped my tears before he rest his lips on my cheeks.

"You did great without me. I will never leave again. Don't leave me." I look at him with full of hopes and sadness.

"I-I promise..." Paos kong sagot. I didn't know that sharing my pain will make my feeling better.

This man did everything to prove to me that i deserve him and now i'm start questioning my self if i really deserve him. Halos wala akong maibalik sakanya noon at kahit atensyon ay pinagkait ko. Am I still worth it? I don't know.

I always denied him to myself. I didn't know that the moon and stars already choose him for me and now i'm accepting it. We will live our life together, i will marry him, for real.

We stayed in each other arms in a past hours until i fell asleep because of tiredness.

Napamulat ako ng maramdamang may bumuhat sakin but i'm too sleepy.

"Terrence..." I called and try to open my eyes again. Naramdaman ko na ang malambot na kama dahilan para mas hilahin pa ko ng antok.

And before i fell asleep i felt someone's lips bruised mine.

I woke up alone kaya mabilis akong napaupo. Nilibot ko ang paningin ko sa kwarto. Where is he? Agad akong kinabahan. That's impossible to become a dream! I open the door and  the smell of foods filled my nose. Mabilis akong nag-tungo sa kitchen.

I breath heavily when i found him there. Lumapit ako at tumabi sakanya. Agad na bumagsak ang tingin ko sa kanyang niluluto. It's a Pilipino dish.

"Menudo?"  I ask and look at him. He hug me behind and sniff my neck. Bumalik ang tingin ko doon sa pagkain. I think it's delicious. I wonder where he learn this. He's been in Japan for months. Kaya pano?

"You're Mom called." He said ignoring my question. It must be important.

"Bakit daw?" I search for the spoon  to taste the Menudo.

"She said, you're going to meet some of your real relatives." Natigilan ako at naibaba ang kutsara. I turn to him at tinignan siya sa gulat na ekspresyon.

"R-Really?" I'm excited and of course kinakabahan. I didn't expect this.

"Yes, we will meet them tomorrow morning." He said and hold my waist. Tomorrow.

"Are you happy?" He added.

I smile and nod.

"Of course." I answered and hug him.

Finally. The heavens hear my prayers.
