Wedding dressNagising akong may hang over. Halos hindi ako makapaglakad ng maayos dahil sa sobrang pagkahilo. Naligo muna ako para mahimasmasan ako ng konti pagkatapos ng makababa ako ay nakita kong nagluluto ng pagkain sa kusina si Alex.
"Gising na pala ang lasingera" aniya ng makita ako habang nilalagay niya sa plato ang niluto niyang sunny side up.
"Anong nangyari kagabi?" Tanong ko saka humikab .
"Style mo! Ano bang gusto mong malaman?" Tanong niya habang tinatanggal ang suot na apron.
"Huwag mo nga akong itulad sayo! Ano nga ang nangyari kagabi?" Tanong ko habang nilalagyan ng pagkain ang plato ko.
"Well sinukahan mo lang naman ako saka...." huminto siya sa pagsasalita saka ako tignan.
"Saka? Ano? Ayusin mo!"
"Saka mo 'ko-"
"Omyghad! Huwag mong sabihing hinalikan kita?" Sabi ko kaya naman nanlaki ang mata niya sa gulat.
"Sana nga ganon na lang ang ginawa mo pero hindi! Sinampal mo 'ko!" masama ang tingin niya sa'kin habang dinuduro-duro ako. Napatigil ako saglit saka humagalpak sa tawa.
"Bobo" sabi ko habang tumatawa. Siya naman ay masama ang tingin sa'kin habang kumakain. Napaubo pa 'ko dahil sa kakatawa.
"Wala na ba? 'Yun lang ba?" Tanong ko habang pinupunasan ang luha sa mata ko.
"You also said something" sabi niya kaya ako biglang napa seryoso.
"I what?"
"You said something and then said that "we don't look good together" that's the only thing I heard" he said then continued eating. Nagpatuloy nalang din ako sa pag kain habang iniisip iyong sinabi ko, hanggang sa matapos kami sa pagkain ay hindi ko pa rin naalala kung ano 'yung sinabi ko na hindi narinig ni Alex.
Umalis si alex dahil kinailangan siya sa hospital habang ako naman ay pumunta kina mama dahil gusto daw nila akong makausap.
"Po?" Tanong ko ng tawagin ako ni mama. Lumapit sa'kin si mama na may bitbit na isang medyo katamtamang laki ng kahon.
"Ano po 'yan?" Tanong ko ng ilapag niya ito sa harapan ko.
"Here" she gave me a little envelope. "Read that before you open the box"
When I opened the envelope I saw a paper inside. It was a letter from my mom.
"Maybe you're reading this because I'm not by your side anymore, I'm not by your side to help you with your love problem...... Ry, Your tita gave you this box because she think that you are already inlove, that was my instruction to her. She have to give this to you when your already inlove" I laugh because of that. I'm not inlove, well I think I'm not.
"The dress inside the box was my wedding dress, It's simple yet elegant. I want you to wear this in your wedding day and those rings are the one I want you and your husband to wear for the rest of your life" I stopped reading to wipe my tears because my vision was blurry because of it. "I'm sorry for not being at your wedding day. I hope you will be happy. I'm happy that you finally found the person you will love for the rest of your life, Iloveyou"
That was the last word that written on the paper. I opened the box and saw the wedding dress, on top of the wedding dress was a small box. I opened the box and saw two rings. They look so simple, old rings. I took the old wedding dress from the box and then hugged it as if I was hugging my mom.
