I glanced at my wristwatch, it's already 7:00 pm. I let out a heavy sigh and massage my temple to realease my headache- tiredness. I keep checking my phone hoping to get a text or call from him, to my surprise i don't have any message from him. Ni 'hi', 'i love you's' or any period wala mang lang ako natanggap. I don't know why the hell na hindi siya magparamdam sakin. Sa pagkakatanda ko wala kaming pinag-talunan kahit konting away. To my disappointment, I quickly carried my bag,left the office. Nagpara ako ng taxi dahil coding ko ngayon.
The taxi driver stopped by the gate of our house. I paid and got out. Nagtataka ako bakit ang dilim ng bahay kahit man lang sa tapat ng pintuan patay ang ilaw, maybe mama and papa take a date or baka hinatid yung kapatid ko sa bahay ng kaihigan niya- night over or bar hopping. I took my key out of my bag and open the door. I pushed it further. Kinapkap ko ang switch sa pader pero wala paring ilaw. Ano to? Naputulan kami. Eh kakabayad ko lang last week.
Kinuha ko ang cellphone ko sa bag ko at in-on ang flashlight. Nakakadalawang hakbang pa lang ako ng may napansin akong ilaw galing sa kusina. Tumungo ako sa kusina, i gasped out of my surprise.
Ang kusina namin ay napapalibutan ng Christmas light, nagbibigay ilaw sa paligid. I averted my gaze in the middle. There, standing the man who i love the most. Nakaorgnize ang lamesa sa gitna may nakahanda doong stake at wine. He's holding a heart shape bouquet of tulips. The place looks magical. Kennedy wearing a black checkered polo and faded jeans. He looks so handsome under the shining bright light.
Kennedy walk gracefully towards me. He handed me the flower. A smile crept over his lips and grew wider as i kiss his cheek.
"Thank you." I smiled. Kennedy never fails to make me happy. I really like tulips. Tulips symbolize perfect or deep love. I'm drawn to his i love you's . I'm drawn to his efforts. I'm drawn to his presence. I'm drawn to his kisses. I'm drawn to his smile. I'm drawn everything about him.
"A flower for a beautiful girl, love." He laughed and i giggled. Iginaya niya ako sa lamesa. He poured wine on my wine flute. I mouthed him 'thanks' and he nod.
As we eat, we talked about some work stuff. Aminado akong sa sarili ko napapabayaan na ang relationship namin dahil sa trabaho. It's not his fault, it's my fault. I hate myself for that.
Tumayo siya sa kanyang upuan at lumapit sa aking gilid. I lift my brow asking what-is-he-doing. He chuckled.
"Can i have this dance?" He asked. Masugid kong tinanggap ang kamay niya. Kennedy is a sweet perfect boyfriend to be exact i remember how i met him 5 years ago. He's my greatest enemy. They said " The more you hate, tge more you love" and heck i fell in the trap. I'm grateful to fell in the trap.
He scan his phone and play the music. Natatawa ako sa ginawa niya. Instead of taking to a fancy restaurant where the band is there and best food and date pero duto niya ginawa sa bahay. Damn I really love this man.
I gently wrapped my arms around his nape. He wrapped his hands to my waist.
His eyes locked with mine. His expression softened. He closed between us. Pinatong ko ang ulo ko sa matipuno niyang dibdib. He caressed my hair. I smiled widely as we humming the song. Our favorite song.
"Celestine. Sorry if hindi ako nagparamdam sa iyo kase I'm planning something that will make the both of us happy." He said i looked at him. I saw a glitch smiling eyes of him.
"We've been for 4 years. Five years ago, nabangga kita at ang hawak ko milkshake nabuhos iyon sayo. Instead of saying sorry ikaw pa sinisi ko kahit alam kong ako ang may kasalanan. We started to enemy,to friends and turns into lovers. This day was the date na una kitang nasilayan." He chuckled. He pulled out a red velvet box and got down on one knee. My heart started racing. I'm starting to realize what's happening now. I bit my trembling lips, tears in my eyes like a rain drops as they went down to my cheeks.
"I love you....so much Celestine. I want to spend my forever with you. Will you marry me?" He asked.
I just stood up there, looking at his in amazement. A few seconds went by.
I couldn't believe it. It's the most sweet heart screaming question in my whole life.
I toook a deep breath and looked at him.
"Yes, i will marry you." I replied. This is too overwhelming. Umiiyak ako habang isinusuot niya ang singsing sa aking daliri. I can't contain my emotions. He got up and kissed me. He kissed me passionately as he pulled me tightly. His tongue touched mine.
Kennedy is the perfect man that i will spent my forever. I'm madly inlove with him.
