Marry me

"May boyfriend ka na?!"

"Si lance?!"

"Don't cancel the wedding!"

"A-ano po?! Wedding?!" Gulat na tanong ko. Anong wedding ang sinasabi nila? Wag mo sabihing..

"Itutuloy na'tin." Sumimsim si Papa ng kape saka itinupi ang dyaryo na binabasa niya.

"A-ang bata ko pa--"

"Okay, let's wait 2 years from now."

Pagewang gewang akong pumasok sa pumasok sa bahay nila Lance nung salubungin ako ng yakap ni Iris.

"Omg! I'm so happy for you! I was like naiiyak kanina." Napangiwi ako sa pagiging conyo niya.

"Thank you?"

Hinila ako nito papuntang kusina at naabutan ko doon sila tito, tita at Lance na nag uusap.

"I want it now." Nakatingin lang ako kay Lance.

"No." Tanggi ni tito.

"Lance, mag wait ka pa ng 2 years--"

"Yes, Darling! Calm down!!!" Sumigaw si Iris kaya napatakip ako sa tenga.

"L-leira?" Gulat na tanong nila nung makita ako na nakatayo sa gilid.

"Hehe, hello po!" Kumaway pa ako para mawala ang pag ka awkward.

--

"Leira.." tawag ni Lance sa akin habang nakayakap sa likuran ko. Nasa labas kami.

"Magpapakasal ka ba sa akin?"

"Bata pa tayo!"

"Gagawa tayo ng bata-- aray!" Hinampas ko siya bago ako kumalas sa yakap niya.

"Bastos!"

Mag da-dapit hapon na nung biglang tumugtog sa loob ng bahay ang 'Marry me by Jason Derulo'

105 is the number that comes to my head
When I think of all the years I wanna be with you
Wake up every morning with you in my bed
That's precisely what I plan to do

"A-anong--"

Napanganga ako nung lumabas si Lance na nakapolo at may dala dalang bulaklak. Ngumisi lang ito sa akin.

"You know how much I like you."

Ay like lang?

And you know one of these days when I get my money right
Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life
Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush
But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough

"Sure ka?"

"Yes."

"Hmp."

I'll say will you marry me
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say will you marry me

"Agad agad?" Gulat na tanong ko. Papakasalan niya na agad ako? Nakita ko na nakangisi din si Iris sa may sulok kasama ang-- buong pamilya ko?!

How many girls in the world can make me feel like this?
Baby I don't ever plan to find out
The more I look, the more I find the reasons why
You're the love of my life

"Huy. Bakit kasama sila?" Gulat na tanong ko nung makalapit sa akin si Lance.

"Gusto mo akong ma solo?"

"Ayaw ko nga!"

"Sure?"

"Sure na sure!" Inagaw ko ang bulaklak sa kaniya.

You know one of these days when I get my money right
Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life
Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush
But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough

"Pinapaiyak mo ako!" Hinampas ko siya.

"Edi umiyak ka."

I'll say will you marry me
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say will you marry me

"Hindi ka talaga gentleman!"

"Sure?"

"Sure na sure!"

And if I lost everything
In my heart it means nothing
'Cause I have you, girl I have you
So get right down on bended knee
Nothing else would ever be
Better, better
The day when I say

"Mahal mo ako?"

"Sure-- hindi!"

"Sure?"

"Oo!"

I'll say will you marry me
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say will you marry me

I'll say will you marry me
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say will you marry me

Ooh whoa ooh oh
Ooh whoa ooh oh
Ooh whoa ooh oh

Would you marry me baby

105 is the number that comes to my head
When I think of all the years I wanna be with you
Wake up every morning with you in my bed
That's precisely what I plan to do

"Will you marry me?" Lumuhod ito sa harapan ko bago kinuha ang kaliwang kamay ko.

Unti unti nang nagtuluan ang mga luha ko bago tumango.

"Hindi kita marinig." Hindi ako nagsalita pero tumatango lamang ako.

"Say it, Leira."

"Y-yes!"
