Authentic Love

Kabanata 54

Deanna

Kasabay ng pagbukas ng pinto ay siya ring pagpatak ng aking mga luha ng makita ang pinakamagandang babae sa mundo. Ang pinakamamahal kong babae, walang iba kundi ang nag iisang Jessica Margarett ng buhay ko.

Sa bawat habang nito ay naalala ko lahat ng mga pinagdaanan namin. Na sa bawat habang nito papalapit sakin na nagsasabing marami mang problema ang dumating ay sa altar parin kami hahantong.

At heto na nga, ang pinakahihintay ko. Ang maging legal na kaming dalawa talaga at maging isa kami.

"Deanna, tinatanggap mo ba sa buhay mo si Jessica bilang isang kabiyak? For richer or poorer? For sickness and in health? Hanggang sa kamatayan?" father said.

"I do father." i said

"Jessica, tinatanggap mo ba sa buhay mo si Deanna bilang isang kabiyak? For richer or poorer? For sickness and in health? Hanggang sa kamatayan?"

"I do father." Jema replied

"You may now give each others vow." father said

"I enter into this life with you without reservation, without fear or confusion, but with a clear and trusting heart. Everything will work out love, because we will be together. Our love will bind us together through all time and this I promise, to always be true. I promise to grow with you and build with you a better life each day as we learn from each other to be patient, kind, giving, and to always cherish each day together. I knew I loved you from the moment we met, and I have been helplessly lost in your eyes ever since. From this day forward, let us build a home together filled with love, laughter, joy, and light, when two become one we create a family, built on love. I love you, Jessica Margarett Galanza."

"When you walked into my life, love walked in. It was a magical moment that I will treasure forever with you. I will walk together with you and with love. You are my guide to love, my every wish, and the person I want to grow old with. No words can possibly express the vow that I give to you now - it is an ineffable part of myself that I place in your care as we join together. I vow to carry you and to be carried by you, to journey with you and to love each minute because of our travels together. We will live a life of constant adventure together. I love you, Deanna Izabella Wong."

"You may now kiss each other." father said

Hiyawan at palakpakan ang mga taong saksi ng pagmamahalan namin Jema.

Jema

Pagkatapos ng kasal ay diretso na ang lahat sa reception pero kami ni Deanna ay iba ang pinuntahan. Siya ang nagdrive imbes na si Manong pero pinapunta nalang niya ito sa reception.

"Saan ba tayo pupunta Deanna?" tanong ko

"Honeymoon, ano pa ba?" natatawang sabi nito pinalo ko nga

"Aray! Joke lang Love. Relax ka lang kasi may pupuntahan tayo." sabi nito

"E saan nga?" tanong ko

Ngumiti lang ito kaya di ko na kinulit at hinintay nalang marating kung saan niya ako dadalhin.

After 1 hour and 30 minutes mukang narating na namin ang lugar dahil huminto ito at humarap sakin.

"Tara na." sabi nito saka ngumiti ng napakalawak. Sumagot nalang din ako ng ngiti

Pagkababa namin sa sasakyan ay may kumuha ng atensyon ko. Ang isang napakataas na gate. Hindi mo agad makikita kung may nakatira ba o wala kung may bahay man sa loob. Ang pinagtaka ko doon dumiretso si Deanna at tinawag ako.
