VICTORIA
Habang papalapit nang papalapit yung open carriage sa Amber Cathedral ay lalo akong kinakabahan. Kahit gusto ko tumulala muna ay hindi ko magawa dahil kitang-kita ako ng lahat.
The shortest route from our house towards the cathedral has been closed for the duration of the parade. And people are lining up by the side. But it got less as we approached the cathedral. And the carriage got slower.
As I was trying to calm myself, I heard Dad calling me and when I turned my head to look at him, he's offering his hand for me to take. Which I did.
At pagkatapos ayusin yung damit ko ay bumukas na yung giant double doors ng cathedral. Buti na lang ay kasama ko si Mommy at Daddy sa paglalakad sa altar kaya hindi ako masyadong kinakabahan.
Pagtapak namin sa loob ng cathedral ay nakita ko kung gaano karami yung invited guests. Na ngayon ay nakatayo at nakatingin sa akin.
The other Royals of Great Amber, celebrities, politicians from allied countires, representatives of other countries in Great Kingdoms' Continent ranging from Kings, Queens, Princes, Princesses, and Prime Ministers.
And as we continued to walk towards the altar, I can hear Jessie's soothing voice singing accompanied by the orchestra we chose. When we're close enough to reach the altar, I saw Clinton. He's wearing a suit similar to a military dress uniform. But it's in white and has golden yellow details with a sash. On top of his head is a silver crown.
Once we're standing face to face, my father gave my hand to Clinton. Who then guided my arm to lock with his arm. I almost couldn't look away.
Because Clinton looked dashing. With his stance and facial expression, you'd want to look at him for as long as you can.
"Wala nang atrasan 'to ah." Rinig kong bulong ni Clinton kaya napalingon ako sa kan'ya.
"Are you saying that to me or yourself?" Kinakabahang tanong ko.
"Pwedeng both."
Hindi ko inaasahan yung sinagot n'ya kaya nilingon ko s'ya ulit para tanungin ng, "lasing ka ba?"
And to my horror, he nodded a little before he crouched down a little to help me lift the front of my dress to walk up the altar.
I wasn't even nervous anymore about saying the wrong thing! Panay tingin ako kay Clinton dahil baka mamaya ay tinatanong na s'ya tapos nakatulog o idlip na.
"Stop looking at me from time to time." Bulong n'ya pagkatapos lumapit sa akin nang kaunti. "People are going to think you're too in love with me and that you can't believe we're actually in front of the altar, getting married."
Hindi ko napigilang lingunin talaga si Clinton at sasamaan ko sana ng tingin. Kaso naalala ko na nasa cathedral kami at broadcasted live all over the world. Kaya pinilit ko ngumiti. At nang lingunin n'ya rin ako ay pinipigilan n'ya tumawa.
He's definitely hungover.
Ano ba ang naisipan nito at uminom the night before? Well, yeah, uminom din ako. Pero kaunti 'yon! I didn't even get tipsy last night. Itong si Clinton...
...he probably didn't just get drunk. Wasted. I should probably be thankful that he's sober for the most part.
Sa katitingin ko kung hindi ba nakaidlip bigla si Clinton, nagulat na lang ako nang nagpapalitan na kami ng vows. Buti na lang nasabi ko lahat ng kailangan. At habang nagsasalita yung Archbishop, na-realize kong pronouncement na yung sunod. Which means-
