Payb Takes

Il Matrimonio Italiano

Hello everyone!

Happy Weeksary to Payb Takes! Yey!🙌

It's been 18 weeks since I wrote my first ever MAICHARD one-shot and the first ever story after a creative dormancy of over 12 years.

I always thought it will be a one-time deal but alas your support and encouragement stirred me otherwise. Your love for Payb Takes RJ and Meng is just too strong to ignore and your comments fired by the my love for MAICHARD is what keeps me writing to this day. 😊

In celebration of the PT Weeksary and the 700k reads (now 714k) I will be writing 2 updates based on prompts you tweeted yesterday.

The first one is from my Twitter Mom @melning41002. This will also be a collab as I will be adding her MAICHARD convo that was posted on Twitter along with it. 😊 It will be a What If scenario. Love you, Mom. Thanks for this. 😘

And to all, Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. I love you all. =)

What If this happened in Como? 😉

May 25, 8am, Como, Italy:

During a break in the set, R sits on a bench facing the beautiful view of the lake. He stares out deep in thought and did not notice M approach him.

M: *sits beside R, touches his arm* Love? Ang lalim ng iniisip mo ah. Okay ka lang ba?

R: *sighs, holds M's hand*

M: *looks around and starts to pull her hand away*

R: *grips her hand tighter, looks at M* Wala akong pakialam kung makita nila. Hahawakan ko ang kamay mo dahil gusto ko, dahil mahal kita and this is what normal engaged couples do.

M: *sees that R is obviously upset, nods her head, places her hand on top of his, enclosing it between her palms, smiles* Dahil gusto ko din at mahal din kita, for once let's be a normal engaged couple sitting on a bench along Lake Como.

She smiles at him sincerely. The side of her lips lifting to reveal a perfect set of pearly white teeth. Her cheeks hinting dimples that add to her appeal. Her eyes sparkling of love and happiness, lighting up her face and warming his heart. He couldn't help but smile back, smile back at the radiant beauty of her smile.

M: Ano bang iniisip mo, Love?

R: Na mahal na mahal kita at mami-miss kita ng sobra pag uwi ko bukas. Iniisip ko pa lang parang di ko na kakayanin ang lungkot.

M: *strokes the back of his hand* Mahal na mahal din kita at sobrang mami-miss din kita, Love pero kailangan nating kayanin yun atsaka ilang araw lang naman magkakasama na tayo ulit and knowing you I'm sure babawi ka ng todo and I mean talagang bawi kaya habang nasa Germany ako magpapalakas na ako. *grins*

R: *grins* Huy, bakit? Ganoon ba ako? Di naman kaya... *pouts*

M: *laughs* Hindi ba? Eh kay Kissoy pa lang kawawa na si Lippie. Dahil sa'yo I learned breathing exercises.

R: *blushes* Grabe sya. Patingin ng breathing exercise. *kilay language*

M: *hits R's arm* Huy! Breathing exercise ka dyan. Di pwede dito yun uy.

R: Bakit? Sabi mo we'll be a normal engaged couple.

M: Oo nga pero di naman yun gawain ng engaged couple lang. Pag mag-asawa siguro para walang question. *laughs*

R: Then, let's do it.

M: What?

R: Let's get married.
