London Baltimore Constantine. When I was younger, there are three things that come to my head when I hear his name: a friend, a playboy and a troublemaker. Back then, I never knew he would be as special to me as he is now. I never would have even thought that we will fall in love with each other no would he become the person I know now.

But I'm glad and grateful that I am able to witness his growth. From a friend to my boyfriend. From a playboy to a faithful man. And from a troublemaker to someone who chooses peace rather than the chaos.

Pinagmamasdan ko si London habang mataman niyang nilalagyan ng honey at butter ang pancake na inorder ko sa McDo. He specifically requested for a breakfast here because we usually eat here when we were younger. It's kind of nostalgic. Pagkatapos nito ay pupuntahan namin sina Daddy at Mommy sa bahay dahil pormal niyang hihingin ang aking kamay.

Yes, after the long wait, we are finally getting married. Sa ngayon ang mga kaibigan palang namin na nasa kasal ni Tiara ang nakakaalam. Hindi pa nakakarating sa kahit kanina sa aming pamilya.

My dad will probably go wild. He's the most angry before when London left. I don't think it would be easy to talk to him.

Nang matapos lagyan ng butter at honey ang aking pancake ay iniusod niya iyon sa tapat ko at binigay ang plastic knife and fork, bago itinuon ang sarili sa sariling pagkain. Medyo tahimik ito simula kanina. Kinakabahan daw kasi siya humarap sa aking ama.

I assured him that my decision to marry him cannot be changed by anyone, even my parents. Pero hindi iyon naging sapat para hindi siya kabahan.

"I should buy you an engagement ring," baling niya sa akin matapos maka-isang subo sa pancake. His forearm stayed on the back of my seat as he look at me with solemn eyes.

"Ayos lang naman sa akin kahit wala, London."

Inangat niya ang kamay ko at malamyos na hinawakan ang palasingsingan. "You deserve a ring. I don't want you thinking that I'd back out dahil lang hindi kita nabigyan ng singsing."

Ilang pag-uusap pa ay napapayag niya din akong dumaan sa mall para sa singsing na gusto niya. Ayos lang naman sa akin kung wala, o kahit iyong simpleng singsing lang pero mas maarte pa siya sa akin at inabot din kami ng halos isang oras sa pag-pili noon.

It was a blue sapphire engagement ring. Malaki ang bato noon at pinalilibutan pa ng maliliit na white diamonds. Ayaw ko nga sana noon dahil mahal. Pupwede namang ang kasal ang mas pag-gastusan namin pero ipinilit iyon ni London dahil siya naman daw ang magbibigay. At ang gusto niya para sa akin ay iyong pinakamahal at pinakamaganda.

"Kahit naman wala nito ay pakakasalan pa din kita..." bulung-bulong ko habang namamangaha sa binila niyang 3.5 million worth na singsing! Pwedeng-pwede na namin iyong pampagawa ng bahay!
