Oppa and Me

Chapter Nineteen

Finale

Two years later at Kim's Farm House, South Korea.

Tuwang tuwa ang puso niya habang matamang tinititigan ang life-size painting na nakasabit sa kanilang sala. It was taken 1 year ago at their church wedding in the Philippines. It was just delivered earlier today from a renowned painter in Korea.

Both of them are so happy in the painting. She is holding her stargazer bouquet while he is holding her waist. They decided to choose their first civil wedding anniversary to be the date of their church wedding, too.

Today, they are celebrating their 2nd and 1st year Civil and Church Wedding Anniversary, respectively.

The painting looks alive. Parang kahapon lang ito nangyari. Bakas sa mga mukha nila ang kasiyahan. Hindi niya akalain na magiging ganito ang fate sa kanya rito sa South Korea.

The 6-month contract turned out to be the start of her lifetime contract to her boss which is now her faithful and loving husband.

What started as a drunk encounter seven years ago, brought them here. What started as a drunk incident brought them to the company and love of each other.

Truly, love moves in mysterious ways. Her trauma about love was turned into a beautiful experience. She learned to gamble in love and she surely won. And the prize is a Korean Superstar, an Oppa.

The painting perfectly complemented the sala interior. The farm house was perfectly renovated to match their carefully crafted design.

They decided to renovate it and make it their home. The farm house is so memorable to them because it is where they build up their beautiful love story.

The first chat, meal together, sharing of bed, bonding, quarrel and even drinking session. It happens there.

The farm house is going to be their home for the rest of their lives.

Even now ay hindi pa rin siya makapaniwala na isang Korean superstar ang napangasawa niya. She doesn't even idolize him in the first place. Nakilala niya lang ito dahil naging boss niya ito matapos siya nitong hanapin at i-hire bilang farm vet. She is really just planning to work here for experience, never thinking that a beautiful love story is waiting for her.

"Love," mahinang tawag sa kanya ng kanyang asawa mula sa kwarto nila.

Napangiti siya ng mas malapad ng marinig ang baritonong boses nito.

His voice is so good to hear. She never gets tired of listening to it every single day of their married life.

Halos alam na niya ang mga ibig sabihin ng mga tono ng boses nito. Gaya ngayon na may gusto itong sabihin o i-remind sa kanya.

"I am here." Tawag niya rito na hindi pa rin inaalis sa painting ang mga mata.

Naririnig niya ang paglalakad nito papunta sa kanya. Nang makalapit sa kanya ay niyakap siya nito mula sa likod. That gesture is still sending her happy emotions.

Hinalikan siya nito sa kanyang buhok at inamoy iyon bago hinawakan ang kanyang tiyan. Napahawak rin ang mga kamay niya sa mga kamay nito na nakahawak sa kanyang nakaumbok na tiyan.

Yes, she is carrying their first baby at 24 weeks.

Nakabuo rin sila matapos ng isang taon mahigit na pagsasama. They will know the gender next week. But whatever it is, they will love that child and give her/him all they have.

Inilagay nito ang baba sa kanyang kanang balikat. Alam niyang nakatingin din ito sa painting nila.

"It is beautiful," anas nito sa taenga niya.
