"Hey, dude. Relax.. Kanina ka pa di mapakali dyan eh. Dadating si Jema, okay.."
"Eh kasi naman Bei eh.. Kinakabahan na ko. Kagabi pa kaya kami di nagkikita.."
"Breathe, Deanna.. Just breathe, sayang outfit mo pinagpapawisan ka na.." Maddie.
"Dada, calm down. You're sweating too much na ohh.." pinunasan pa ni Dealan ng panyo ang noo ko.
"Dealan is right. Calm down, Deanna.. Papunta na yun si Jema.." Pongs.
Nandito na kami sa Balesin Marquee. Dito ang wedding venue namin sa beachfront. Everything is perfectly set up..
The aisle and the arc are crafted with the combination of blue and white roses..
Jema and I chose light blue and white for our wedding theme.
I am wearing a light blue jacket, white shirt tucked inside my navy pants with a dark brown belt, and a dark grey birks.
Everyone is wearing a light blue outfit and a comfortable sandals..
"Anak, come here.." lumapit pa sakin si mommy. Inayos yung collar ko..
"Guys, settle down na. Jema's sister called. On the way na sila.." ate Nicole..
Pumunta na sa harap si ate Nicole at inayos yung pwesto ng mga guest. Si ate Nicole ang wedding organizer namin.
Katabi ko dito sa unahan si Dad and Dealan.
Wala na kaming entourage.. The rings are already with the officiating pastor.
We will just have to wait for Jema for the wedding proper to start.
Nakita ko ng dumating sila Mafe, Kyla at yung mga co-faculty ni Jema. Pinapwesto na agad sila ni ate Nicole.
Kasunod lang nila yung parents ni Jema..
"Few more minutes, Deanna.. I'm so proud of you, anak.." bulong sakin ni dad.
"I'm nervous, dad.. I've waited for 18 years.."
"Smile and breathe, Deanna.. The long wait is over."
Nag start ng tumugtog ang music...
Tumayo na ako ng maayos at humarap sa dulo ng aisle.. Huminga ako ng malalim..
This is it Deanna..
'Rainbow notes up on the wall
Dancing children under rainfalls
Perfect sunset set to ten
Then we begin again...'
And there, I saw Jema...
Walking in the aisle..
She's so beautiful in her white lace bohemian wedding dress..
Dahan dahan siyang naglalakad...
'... There's a ribbon in the sky
Painting rivers on the moonlight
Moving pictures say the word
Of a story that begins...'
Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya... Sa kanya lang..
'... I'll hold your hand and wipe your tears
We'll laugh until we run out of years...'
Hindi ko na mapigilang maiyak..
Kasi yung matagal kong inantay, nandito na sa harap ko.. Naglalakad na palapit sa akin...
''... Cause no matter if our blue skies turn to gray
There's a ray of sun that's bound to light our way
And although the roads are rough
I'll get through it just because...
... I have my You
You have your Me
No matter what may come
We'll have our We and Us...'
Pagkatapos nito, wala ng siya at ako. Ang meron na lang ay kami..
