SEDUCING THE THORN °[KathNiel] ✓COMPLETE

CHAPTER 40

Tama ang desisyon kong umuwi ng Maynila. I've known that Uno is already pursuing Gabbi again. Somehow, my heart is glad to know that everyone close to me are getting the happy-endings they deserve. Ako lang yata ang hindi magkakaroon no'n. Pero okay na 'yon. At least man lang, hindi ako mapapalligiran ng mga pusong kasing-lungkot ng sa'kin. Para kahit panandalian lang, tuwing nakikita ko silang masaya, sasaya din ako.

The Palmer Brothers are really very supportive to Uno. Lalong-lalo na si Tres na atat na atat ng pakasalan ang fiancee niya. Haha. Hinarana namin si Gabriella. Sinamahan namin si Uno. Kahit papaano, kahit na puno ng galit at sakit ang puso ko, may parte parin nitong naniniwala sa totoong pag-ibig. I've seen one right before me. Gabriella and Uno proved it.  Hindi na pinatagal pa ni Uno ang lahat. On the following day, he proposed to Gabriella which we believed is the best decision he has made in his whole life. Hahaha. Puro pagpapakatanga eh. If it were me, I would never let my girl go. Well, I would never...if only Brook loves me as much as Gabbi loves my brother. But it's not the fact.

Baby, please try to forgive me
Stay here don't put out the glow
Hold me now don't bother
If every minute it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man that I've become

Looking back on the things I've done
I was trying to be someone
Played my part, kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Sadness is beautiful
Loneliness is tragical
So help me I can't win this war
oh no
Touch me now don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become

Uno was the jack-of-all-trades. Yong talino ni dad at  ang galing sa pagluluto, ang musical gift ni mom, namana 'yon ni Uno lahat. He's so good at revising songs, giving his own rendition. Tulad nalang ngayon, ang calm ng kanta at musika, mararamdaman mo talagang may ikakasal. At sa tingin ko, mahihirapan si Gabriella na tanggihan ang marriage proposal ni kuya not to mention that she's so whipped by him.

When the song has ended, they were both crying. Kuya stood in front of her who looked really happy even with those tears. Those were happy tears anyway. 

"I want to make things right with you, Gabriella. I don't want to be scared for the rest of my life and end up hurting you, hurting both of us. I want you to spend your whole life with me. Gabriella Lacsamana, I love you." Then, Uno knelt down with a small velvet box in his hand. He took out the ring and asked the words.  "Will you marry me?"

Gabriella was sobbing like for real. Gusto ko nga sanang kantiyawan kasi sa pag-iyak niya parang no ang sagot niya e. Di, joke lang.

"No?" Malungkot na sambit ni kuya nang hindi parin sumasagot si Gabbi.

"No. No. I mean, it's yes of course!" She cried out. "This is real, right? You're real?"

Uno laughed at how cute Gabriella reacted. Kahit silang mga nagtatago ay gusto ding matawa. Others are already sniffing. I'm referring to the girls, si mom, Tres' fiancee, si Danni. Why are girls so emotional when it comes to moments like this? Kay tito Piolo, naiintindihan ko. Siyempre, anak niyang panganay si Gab e tapos mag-aasawa na.

"We're real." My brother sweetly said. "And baby, you're still so ugly when you cry."

Gago 'tong Uno na 'to. Para ngang diyosa ang mapapangasawa niya e. Hindi ko nga maintindihan kung paano niya nagawang saktan si Gab, kung paano niya nagawang tiisin lang ito kahit na mahal nila ang isa't isa. And I only saw one clear answer, my brother is stupid. Idiot even. Haha!
