"shit! totoo ba 'to?" Buong buo ang pagkalabog ng puso ko. Parang walang katapusan ang paghuhurumintado.
"Is it true?grey!" I can't help but to scream his name, because of excitement.
Para akong maiiyak. Nanginginig ang kamay ko hawak ang isang yakult. Kung saan nasa takip ay naka attouch ang sing sing. It was silver with a cute small pink rose in the center. It's so beautiful!
"Alam ko ang weird ng pagkakataon na 'to. Hindi ko lahat na plano. Kaya hindi magara o bongga ang araw na ito. Pero mas mahalaga. Ay ang naramdaman nating dalawa. Ang mahalaga kung paano natin tatanggapin ang isa isa" pinutol niya ang sinasabi niya. Saka huminga.
Nakatanaw lang ako sa kaniya. While he's in front of me on bended knees. He look up to me. "Huling yakult para sa....Para sa pag aaya ko sa'yo sa ating pang habang buhay. Rosa Minara Valenciana will you merry me?"
Kasabay ng mga kataga niya ang paglabas ng mga mahahalagang tao sa buhay namin. Agad akong napasimangot ng makita ko si carlo na nasa gilid, sa bandang likod ni grey. May hawak na gitara habang may nang aasar na ngiti. "Bakit bigla kang nandito?" Tinawanan niya lang ako at hindi sumagot.
Pagkatingin ko kay grey nag kibit balikat lang siya. Pero mas lalo akong napasimangot nang sa isang gilid ay naroon na ang mga magulang namin. "Bakit hindi ko 'to alam? Kayo ah"
Biglang nagtubig ang mga mata ko. Pero napigilan ang luhang iyon nang maramdaman ko ang hawak niya sa kamay ko. Napatingin ako kay Grey. Our eyes meet. Then I heard Carlo's guitar, now are playing.
(Title of the song: marry your daughter by Brian McKnight)
Sir, I'm a bit nervous
'Bout dag here today
Still not real sure what I'm going to say
So bare with me please
If I take up too much of your time
See in this box is a ring for your oldest
She's my everything and all that I know is
It would be such a relief if I knew that we were on the same side
'Cause very soon I'm hoping that I...
He start singing a song. Which is regarding on what we are now. I don't know how to feel, what I feel, what should I feel? Only I felt is happiness.
Can marry your daughter
And make her my wife
I want her to be the only girl that I'll love for the rest of my life
And give her the best of me 'til the day that I die, yeah
I'm gonna marry your princess
And make her my queen
She'll be the most beautiful bride that I've ever seen
I can't wait to smile
When she walks down the aisle
On the arm of her father
On the day that I marry your daughter
Hindi ko alam kung sa akin niya ba dapat kantahin ito o sa mga magulang ko. Nang mapatingin ako sa kanila. Ay ramdam ko kung gaano sila kasaya. It's the same on what I feel.
She's been here every steps
Since the day that we met (I'm scared to death to think of what would happen if she ever left)
So don't you ever worry about me ever treating her bad
I've got most of my vows done so far (so bring on the better or worse)
And 'til death do us part
There's no doubt in my mind
It's time
I'm ready to start
I swear to you with all of my heart...
I'm gonna marry your daughter
And make her my wife
I want her to be the only girl that I'll love for the rest of my life
And give her the best of me 'til the day that I die, yeah
I'm gonna marry your princess
And make her my queen
She'll be the most beautiful bride that I've ever seen
I can't wait to smile
As she walks down the aisle
On the arm of her father
On the day that I marry your daughter
My heart is like a bomb, any moment it will explode. Nakatingin lang ako sa kaniya. Kung paano niya ako tignan na parang ako lang ang tao sa paligid niya. Hindi ko na nga siya kayang pakawalan pa.
The first time I saw her
I swear I knew that I'd say "I do"
I'm gonna marry your daughter
And make her my wife
I want her to be the only girl that I'll love for the rest of my life
And give her the best of me 'til the day that I die
I'm gonna marry your princess
And make her my queen
She'll be the most beautiful bride that I've ever seen
I can't wait to smile
As she walks down the aisle
On the arm of her father
On the day that I marry your daughter
Tears start to flow down to my cheeks. He's holding my hand that's start to tremble. He hold it tight like he wants to hug me right now. Punong puno ng emosyon ang puso ko. Baka mahimatay ako sa sobrang saya nito.
He cleared his throat. Doon ay napatawa ako ng mahina. He get all of us attention.
"So now. I repeat. Rosa Minara Valenciana. Are you ready now to change your surname?"
Hindi ko na naman na pigilan. Bumagsak muli ang mga luha. Bunga ng saya na nararamdaman ko.
"Can I hear your answer now love? Masakit pala sa tuhod 'to" pag angal niya. Bago ay narinig ko ang malalakas na tawa ng saksi sa araw na ito. Sandali ko siyang pinalo ng mahina. Kanina pa nga naman siya nakaluhod.
"May dahilan pa ba para tumanggi ako?"
"Kung papayagan mo akong sumagot diyan. Alam mong wala ka ng kawala" tumawa na naman ang lahat. Kahit kailan talaga grey.
I breathe. "I'm ready now. Grey Musino Santos, it's always a YES"
Doon ay narinig ko ang kanilang palakpakan. Pero hindi 'yon ang aking tinutukan. Kundi ang mga ngiti at naluluha niyang mata. Matapos ay sa singsing na dahan dahan ay inilalagay niya sa aking kamay. Isang bagay na matagal ko ng hinihintay.
Ang damdamin ko ngayon ay nag uumapaw. This is not a dream because it's real. Now we are hugging each other. Like we are unable to detached.
