Love Me or Hate Me (The Sexy Hunk Series Book 2)

Chapter 67: Let's Get Married!

Pakiramdam ko tumibig sa pagtibok ang puso ko...

Nang sabihin mong mahal mo ako...

Naging makulay ang mundo...

Nang dumating ka sa buhay ko...

LANCE

"What the hell is happening?" tanong ko kay Jasmine na nakangiti pa ding nakatingin sa akin. Biglang tumunog ang background music sa paligid at nagtataka akong tumingin sa kanya. Ano bang nangyayari ngayon? Is this some kind of a surprise? Because if it is, it is definitely working for me. Tumugtog ang kanta at nagsalita siya.

Sabi nila
Balang araw darating
Ang iyong tanging hinihiling
At nung dumating
Ang aking panalangin
Ay hindi na maikubli

"Lance... before I met you I am just an ordinary girl. Hindi makuntento sa mga bagay na mayroon ako and I never believe in forever until I met you. When you came into my life, I thought you were a blessing in disguise. You change me... you change my perspective in this world....you change my heart..." sabi niya at naaamaze akong tumingin sa kanya. Naguguluhan pa din ako sa nangyayari pero masaya ako. Every words that's coming from her sweet mouth is lingering inside my heart.

Ang pag-asang nahanap ko
Sayong mga mata
At ang takot kong sakali mang
Ika'y mawawala

"I never wanted to accept that I fell in love to you so fast and hard nung nagsisimula pa lang tayo. I even try to run away because I am afraid of my own feelings. Takot kasing akong kapag minahal kita... baka hindi ko kayanin kung mawawala ka pa." dugtong niya. I wanted to hold her and kiss her and tell her that I feel the same way. Natakot din ako noong una but when I accepted the fact that I fell in love with her, doon lang ako naging masaya. Doon lang ako naging kumpleto. Nagpiplay ang mga pictures namin sa screen habang nagsasalita siya, lalo na yung mga kuha namin 5 years ago. Fuck! Ang lakas makabakla nito pero naiiyak na ko!

At ngayon, nandyan ka na
'Di mapaliwanag ang nadarama
Handa ako sa walang hanggan
'Di paaasahin
'Di ka sasaktan
Mula noon
Hanggang ngayon
Ikaw at Ako

"We had a lot of struggles... a lot of fights... a lot of heart aches but then we choose to love each other every single day...I am happy I choose to love you and I will always choose to love you over and over again until my last breath." dugtong ko niya at pakiramdam ko ay babaha na ang luha ko. Why does every word that is coming from her mouth seem so sweet and it is amazing how she can affects me with just her words. I wish I can kiss her deeply right now however I still wish to hear the other words that she wants to say.

At sa wakas
Ay nahanap ko na rin
Ang aking tanging hinihiling
Pangako sa'yo
Na ika'y uunahin
At hindi naitatanggi

"I am grateful to the Lord because he had given you to me. I am lucky that I finally found the love of my life and nothing can hold me back from loving you unconditionally..." dagdag niya pa. Gusto kong sumagot ng mas swerte ako dahil minahal niya ako and despite of the many flaws I have, despite of my cowardness, she still loves me back and accepted me again.

Ang tadhanang nahanap ko
Sa'yong pagmamahal
Ang dudulot sa pag ibig
Natin na magtatagal

"For everything that we've been through.. for every tears that shed... for every misunderstanding and for all the pain... thank you for always choosing to come back to me.  In your arms... I found contentment.. in your arms, I found endless peace. ... in your arms.. i found the love that I deserve.. and in you arms.. I found happiness." dugtong niya at hindi ko na napigilan ang pag-iyak. Pucha! nasa national tv kami pero para akong baklang umiiyak but I don't fucking care! She is right, we found love, contentment and peace in each other's arm and I won't let anyone to take that happiness away from us again. I won't let anyone to take Jasmine away from me again because she is my happiness and she is the reason why I wanted to wake up every morning of my life.

At ngayon, nandyan ka na
'Di mapaliwanag ang nadarama
Handa ako sa walang hanggan
'Di paaasahin
'Di ka sasaktan
Mula noon (Mula noon)
Hanggang ngayon
Ikaw at Ako

"I am glad that after 5 years, we still ended back to each other's arm and our heart still beats as one...I am willing to spend my whole life with you... I will love you the way no one else does... I will love you until  my next life..." dagdag niya pa at fuck! mukhang tama nga ang iniisip ko pero ayoko siyang pangunahan.

At ngayon, nandito na
Palaging hahawakan
Iyong mga kamay
'Di ka na mag-iisa
Sa hirap at ginhawa
Ay iibigin ka
Mula noon
Hanggang ngayon
Mula ngayon
Hanggang dulo
Ikaw at Ako

"I know you hate cheesy things... but you still did a lot of those to make me happy. Alam ko din na nagplano ka ng magpropose last month bago mangyari yung pagkakasaksak sa akin pero hindi natuloy dahil nga sa nangyari. I know you wanted me to pursue my dreams even if it meant that we will be apart again... but I wanted you to know that I will choose you now, tomorrow and until the day  I die. So now, I am doing the same cheesy thing that you wanted to do.  I am doing the thing that you wanted the most...I love you My Lance... My forever after... My life time friend.. confidante and lover.... My one and only love for the rest of my life.... Lance... will you marry me?" tanong niya sa akin. Shit! Ako dapat ang gumagawa nito eh! Ako dapat ang nagpopropose pero si Jasmine ang gumawa. Well, she is really unpredictable all the time. I am happy that she is choosing to stay with me. I am happy that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me.

Hindi ako halos makapagsalita dahil sa sobrang tindi ng emotions ko. Hindi ako makapaniwalang ginawa niya ito.

"Lance... hindi mo ba sasagutin yung tanong ko?" alanganin pero nakangiting tanong niya.

"I love you..." yung lang yung nasabi ko at natatawa siyang hinalikan ako sa pisngi.

"I know... and I love you too." sagot niya.

"Ang akala ko ba you need to go to LA. Malaking project yun Jasmine and I want you to pursue your dream. Ayokong hadlangan ka sa mga bagay na gusto mong gawin pa. I don't want you to regret this after." sagot ko dahil nag-aalala ako na baka pagsisihan niyo ito sa huli.

"I will never regret loving you and choosing you. Tinanggihan ko na yung project na yun. Besides, hindi ko din naman kayang malayo pa ulit sayo. I can't last a day without you. Call me stubborn and obsessive but I want to be with you all the time." sagot niya sa akin.

"Kung meron mang obsess dito sa ating dalawa ay ako yun. I am too much in love with you that I don't wish to ruin your dream but I hate to be apart from you again." sagot ko.

"Lance... it is too simple... is it a YES or a NO? Kung No ang sagot mo.. madami namang pwedeng magpakasal sa akin diyan." nakataas na kilay ang sagot niya.

"The hell will I let them take you away from me! Dadaan na muna sila sa bangkay ko." sagot ko.

"Then what... are you going to marry me?" tanong niya.

"I love you... I've been in love with for God knows how long. Wala akong ibang babaeng pinangarap kung hindi ang mahalin ka at makasama ka. You've been my dream and I am happy that my dream is coming true now! I love you sweets.. you will never regret loving me and I will always do my best to show you that everyday of your life spending with me will be worthwhile. I should be the one proposing but Damn! Where's the ring? Let's get married now!" sagot ko at nagpalakpakan ang lahat ng tao. Nakita ko ang pair of rings na dala ni Jasmine at sinuot namin iyon sa isa't isa. Naiiyak siyang yumakap sa akin at ako din naman sa kanya.

"I love you... I am dying to kiss you..." bulong ko.

"Then kiss me." sagot niya.

"Kahit may mga tao?" tanong ko.

"I don't care! I badly want your lips too." sagot niya at hindi na ko nagatubili pa. I kissed her endlessly without hesitation and with all my soul. I didn't mind the crowd. I just focus on her delectable lips who is sweetly responding to my kiss. The crowd cheered for us! And I didn't even know what are they doing, I am just happy to embrace the woman I love the most. Today, I felt an endless happiness.
