It was such a very lovely day, clear skies, the sun is rising and you can hear the birds singing, everyone feels the cool breeze of morning air.  The grass are wet with the morning dews, the moment has come; everyone is ready for the “Wedding of the Century”,  

Gerald is so excited to see his wife whom he has never seen physically for almost a week. They been both busy completing all the projects given them; they just communicated virtually and these add to his ardour of having her to his side. Gerald busied himself overseeing the completion of the house he built for his princess in Alabang, almost near the residence of Ate Juday.  He has purchased the property after she has accepted him and they secretly become a couple.  As they have agreed after revealing to their family their secret wedding, they refrained from being too intimate.    After the wedding they will avail of the one month cruise they receive as bonus from their last movie together.   He got his phone and dialled her number...  Phone ringing.

Sarah: her sweet voice sounding in his ears; Morning, Love you Babe, miss you so much…  What are you doing?

Gerald:  Just listening to her voice; then hear her calling his name saying why he didn’t answer back, then when he sense, she is already irritated;  .  Wahhhh Babe, I miss you so much, can we see each other tonight.  It’s been a week since I was able to hold you, kiss you and touch you. 

Sarah:  Babe, we promise them that we will behave.  Imagine, how I fare trying to win back Mommy. She didn’t talk to me for two weeks.  Well. Daddy is your ally, so he just advises us to wait for our church wedding before anything else.  They can’t believe that what happen is all my plans and that you are not even aware it will happen at that time.

Gerald:    laughing, you know babe, you really amaze me, and even I cannot believe that you did it; but am not complaining, it is the best birthday gift I ever have in my entire life.  Babe, are you excited about our church wedding;   

Babe, am so excited for the time I will wake up with you at my side and seeing your angelic face   as I open my eyes.  I am always dreaming our first time, and it made me want you more.  Our friends are actually teasing as if I am a dog in heat, then laughing 

Sarah:  Babe, behave,  only one week more and I’ll be yours completely 24/7, if you want.  Laughing out loud. 

This is it; the most awaited moment, as much they wanted the wedding to be simple and solemn as Sarah wanted it to be, they are not able to  contained the excitement of the people in Batangas who have heard about the big event that will happen in their midst.  They notice the church being prepared and are in awe of the expensive and beautiful flowers being put inside the church is full of flowers, mostly white orchids, white lilies, white roses, and white tulips.  There are “sampaguita garlands, which added to the sweet smell to its effect.  The red carpet is laid from the front steps leading to the altar.   Looking at the place, with the morning lights peeping in the stain glass of the church added to the solemnity of the occasion.  Gov. Vi provided them with the barangay tanods who put barriers one street and closed the roads leading to the church. 

They keep on asking who is to be wed there and assuming that the couple are really a celebrity.  No one divulge any information, but the  Ashralds have their way and got excited about it; but maintain their being nice and classy and refrain from leaking any information.  They too wanted to give Sarah the dream wedding she always wanted.

Two days before the wedding, all the people involved have  already  converged and are now billeted in Liang, San Juan, Batangas.  They have already been preparing the church and the reception venue for the big event.  They were able to secure the privacy of the place and to mislead the press, feelers are being leaked that the real venue of the wedding is in Tagaytay.  Someone is in charge in the preparation of the place to at least provide the food for all those who will be going to Tagaytay.   The wedding will be witnessed by close and special people only  both in the industry and their personal lives.  RSVP.
