Since the day that I was rushed to the hospital by my parents due to high fever, I started to dream about marrying a doctor just like the one who treated me to get well.
He was very neat, clean and handsome in his lab gown. I couldn't help, but admire him."Mag aasawa talaga ako ng doctor! That's what I always said to every one I met especially to my classmates when I was in high school.
"Ako din, architect sa'kin". Sabay na sabi nila Julie at Rhy.
10 years later, we, the batch of 2010 were gathered in a class reunion. As we arrived to the venue together with my husband, I noticed their partners beside them. They greeted us and we greeted them back.
"'Yan na ba sa'yo, Julie? Ayeeee!" Panunukso ko.
"Yes! Meet my husband, Ariel. He's an architect".
Maligayang sabi ni Julie. Nakipag shake hands naman ako sa asawa niya.Nilibot ko ang aking paningin, makikita ko talaga na puro na mga professional ang aking mga kaklase ganun din ang kanilang napapangasawa.
"Balita ko'y teacher ka na! Wow congrats, Carla!"
I smiled at her. "Thank you!"
"Diba sabi mo nung high school tayo, you'd marry a doctor? Siya na ba, Carla? "
Nagulat ako sa biglaang tanong ni Mike na kakarating lang. I shifted my glance at my husband."Yes. Meet my husband,Tonyo, conDuctor sa jeep".
Teacher and ConDuctor's love story.
