Chapter 30: Betrothal

Mira's POV

"Xander? Xander?"

Kanina pa ko nag-lalakad, hell, I don't even know where I am. I am stuck in the middle of a busy street here in London. I know I was just with him when we went here. But now, he's nowhere to be found!

"Xander, it's not longer funny!"

Gumaganti ba siya dahil hindi ko maalala kung ano ang nangyari kagabi? Does it really matter? I mean, naka-inom kaya ako nun!

"Xander, I want to go home!"

Mukha namang walang pakialam ang mga tao sa'kin 'cause everybody's kept on walking back and forth, passed to me.

Dang! I really want to go home, heck! Ang sakit pa kaya ng ulo ko! I don't even know why I have nothing with me, walang phone, walang wallet. Sht! I know Xander and I know he's not capable of doing this much to me!

"Xander, natatakot na 'ko."

As soon as I said that, may biglang yumakap sa'kin mula sa likod. The moment I felt the familiar warmth that those arms bring, kaagad akong kumalma. I even felt him planted a kiss on my head.

"Let's go home." he whispered to my ear which suddenly brings chills upto my spine.

Dahan-dahan akong lumingon sa kanya and my smiles faded instantly.

"It's high time to go home now, babe."

"Zedric...?"

He smiled devilishly and pulled me harshly me to wherever.

"NO!!!"

Napa-balikwas ako ng bangon at hinihingal ako na parang napaka-layo ng tinakbo ko. I was still catching my breath as I roam my eyes around. Kaagad akong naka-hinga ng maluwag, napakalma at napa-pikit nang makita kong nasa kwarto pa rin ako. Fck that nightmare! Nabuhay sa sistema ko yung takot noong nasa Pilipinas pa 'ko. Fck! Zedric's face, dang! Even his name, sounds bloody.

After few minutes, biglang sumigid ang sakit sa ulo ko. Fck! I got hangover from last night.

I roamed around my sight with my dizzy head until I laid my eyes on the side table. There was a glass of water and an aspirin. I saw a sticky note on the glass of water saying, "For your hangover."

I just smiled as I saw the familiar writing. I reached out for the water but immediately stopped when I saw something. I pulled back my left hand and held it with my other hand. There sat a beautiful ring that fits exactly to my finger. I almost had to catch my breath as the memories of what happened last night came rushing by.

~Last night

Mixed emotions filled me when I saw him fished out a ring box. I was confused but then felt excited for unknown reason. He took a sigh and looked straight to my eyes.

"Marry me."

I had to catch my breath after what he said. But I didn't let any more seconds to pass by and answered, "I will." without even thinking what that means, it just came out naturally.

Hindi ko rin alam kung sino ang mas nagulat sa'ming dalawa sa sagot ko. I answered him as soon and as fast as the moment he dropped the bomb.

"Mira..."

I looked into his eyes and smiled. I felt like I was a sober right in this moment. I crawled and went down to sat next to him. I placed my hands around his nape and rested my forehead to his.
