One Shot Story (Collections)

Blue Eyes

I'm on my bed while hugging my world and her name is Anna.

"Anna, I love you. I can't wait to be married to you. Konti na lang." I smiled then hug her even more

Anna means the world and even beyond it.

"Yvan, I love you too and all I wanna do is to spend the rest of my life with you." She answered dearly.

I can still remember how our silly love story started.

Hindi ako yung tipong one woman man. Ako yung collect and collect then select. Parang damit kung mag palit ng babae. Afterall, mas madami ang bilang ng babae kesa sa lalaki. So why not enjoy the perks?

10 years ago ....

I'm on my way to my next class nang napadaan ako sa quadrangle there's a girl who's sitting beside the tree. Nakatungo siya while naka sandal sa puno maybe she is sleeping. Ewan ko pero there's a gravity na hinihigop ako papunta sa kanya. And there see a beautiful angel.

Her face was angelic I'm really amaze with the view. The wind blowing her hair. The dried leaves falling out from the tree it matches her. I decided to cut my class just to watch her. It's almost 12pm when I decided to wake her up.

"Hey miss gising na it's almost lunch." as I tap her shoulder.

Then her eyes open its a pair of blue eyes. A beautiful pair of eyes. She stood up and left me.

Wait? What?! She didn't even bother to say thank you or anything to me. Argh that girl! Buti na lang nakita ko name niya sa ID.

Anna Johnson
Bs Tourism Management

Days passed hindi ko siya nakita tinamad na din akoo mangbabae all I want is to see her face again. Hinanap ko siya our school is big and busy. Kaya minsan mo lang makikita na may nag papahinga. Idagdag mo pa na tourism student siya for sure napupuno siya ng tours. Hays.

Days becomes months.
Months become almost a year.

Halos makalimutan ko na siya but, still I'm hoping to find her. Today, is our graduation.

"Anna Johnson "anya ng speaker at napatingin ako sa stage. Ayun siya kinukuha ang diploma niya.

Pagkatapos ng graduation at agad ko siyang hinanap. Bahala na but I never let this chance passed again. I almost gave up when I saw a girl talking with her friends. Agad ko siyang pinuntahan.

"Anna!!!!" She look at me with full confusion.
"Ahm, who are you?" Her voice is also angelic.
"Hi! I'm Yvan Crusade. Please it's a little to quick but may I get your number." I almost feel my cheek flashing red.
"Ah uhm." Confusion is all over her face.
"Please." I pleaded.
"Okay okay" then you give your number.

Ginawa ko ang lahat to build our friendship. Thank God he's on my side naging close tayo. I take you to mall, theme parks and restau.

After a year of friendship I decided to confess and court you.

"Anna please be my girl." I asked.
"Yes Yvan" with tears in your eyes.

Everything is smooth.

But, one night, you came to my unit crying. Your father wants us to break up she needs you to marry someone with enough money to keep your business alive.

"Yvan you're the only guy I wanna marry." you said with tears in your eyes.
"Shhh, Anna, we will make it through. Believe me." I kissed your forehead and hugged you tightly.

We fought...
And yes we win hinayaan niya tayo as we promise to do our best to keep your family business on tract.

We worked and worked to establish your family business.

Stop of flashback.

2 days from now you'll be married to me. 2 days from now you'll be Mrs. Crusade.

I closed my eyes and went to dreamland.

Today is our wedding I'm here at the church waiting for your bridal car.

It's been 30 minutes but you haven't arrived yet.
30 minutes become 1 hour. I can't wait for more I'm sweating I'm nervous. Something, isn't right.

I ride to my car at dinaanan ang dapat mong dadaanan papuntang simbahan. But, along the way may nakita akong maitim na usok. I almost cried yung kaba ko. No it isn't you. Please hindi ikaw yun. Pero nang tuluyan ako makalapit. Nakita ko ang bridal car na naka bunggo sa isang 10 wheeler truck. Halos mayupi ang kotse.

Agad akong bumaba ng kotse ko. Upang daluhan ang sasakyan. Dali daling tinignan ang likod na upuan kung saan dapat ikaw ay naka upo.

Puno ito ng dugo. Nagkalat ang dugo simula drivers seat hanggang sa likuran.

"Sir? Ikaw po ba ang groom ng biktima?" Tanong ng isang naka stambay sa pangyayari
"Ako nga. Asan siya?"
"Sir ang rinig ko dadalhin siya Mary Immaculate Hospital."
"Sige salamat."

Walang sabi sabi ay umalis ako para makapunta sa hospital.

Fast forward.

"You may now kiss your bride." Sabi ng pari.

Narinig ko ang malakas na iyakan. Iyakan na hindi puno ng saya kung hindi puno ng pighati at pag dadalamhati.

"Anna, mahal na mahal kita" at hinalikan ko ang glass cover ng coffin mo.

Inabutan kita sa hospital. Nakita ko kung paano nila iligtas ang buhay mo. Dumilat ang iyong mata tumingin ka sakin walang lumabas na boses pero alam kong binigkas mo ang salitang "I love you".  Matapos nun ay ang tuluyang pagpikit ng iyong mata at pag diretso ng linya.

Ngayon, tulad ng dapat pakakasalan kita. Pakakasalan kita kahit ang mala dagat at kalangitan mong mata ay di na masisilayan pa.

I love you, Anna.
Even death bring us apart.
