Zara 's POV
"Babe, how do I look?" I asked him while smiling in front of the mirror and look at him as I turn around. Nakita ko naman siya na seryoso lang ang itsura. Am I ugly when I'm wearing a wedding gown? Galit ba siya kasi sinukat ko 'to? Why didn't he say anything?
"Take that gown off of yours," he ordered. I felt embarrassed kasi nakatingin sa akin yung mga saleslady.
"P-Panget ba? S-Sige, huhubarin ko na," wika ko na lamang na may panghihinayang. Akala ko magugustuhan niya pag nakita niya akong nakasuot ng Wedding Gown.
"No. It's not like that. It's just that seeing you wearing that gown makes me think to marry you. ASAP!" He uttered. Bigla naman akong napangiti sa sinabi niya. Feel ko nga nagblush ako.
"Will you take a picture of us?" Chris requested to a saleslady. "Of course, Sir." The saleslady then answered and took a picture of us.
Ibinalik na nung saleslady yung cellphone ni Chris. Right after that picture taking moment, nagpalit na ako but before I headed to the fitting room, I heard Chris saying "Reserve the one that she's wearing. Take good care of it," to the saleslady. I smiled.

Nanunuod kami ng movie dito sa kwarto, then suddenly yung scene ikakasal na yung dalawang bida and gave their vows na.
"Let's imitate the vows, Babe." Chris said out of nowhere. Na-excite ako kaya naman ginaya namin sila.
"I, Christian Manuel, take thee, Zaya Rhine Fuentes, to be my wedded wife, to have and to hold, for this day forward, for better, for worst, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith."
"I, Zaya Rhine Fuentes, take thee, Christian Manuel, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, for this day forward, for better, for worst, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith."
Then, nag-proceed na yung dalawang bida sa pagbibigayan nila ng sariling vows nila pero hindi na namin ginaya.
After saying their vows, nag-proceed naman sa bigayan ng ring. Kaso, wala naman kaming ring. Pero nagulat ako nung biglang inabot sakin ni Chris yung isang singsing. Napangiti naman ako. Is this planned? I asked myself.
"Zaya, I have for you a golden ring with diamonds. The most precious metal and gem symbolizes that your love is the most precious element in my life. The ring has no beginning and no ending, which symbolizes that the love between us will never cease. I placed it on your finger as a visible sign of the vows which have made us husband and wife."
"Chris, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness. As I place it on your finger, I commit my heart and soul to you. I ask you to wear this ring as a visible sign of the vows we have spoken today. Our wedding day."
