Seulgi's POV

Pagkatapos kantahin ni Jus ang Purpose ay umupo siya sa edge ng entablado.

"Purpose should be my last song to perform. But because of this girl.. Trust.. Will be the last song that I will perform."

Nagtinginan sakin ang mga artista dito sa pulp royalty ngunit hindi ako kumibo.

"Hindi niya 'to nirehearse kanina.." Bulong ko sa aking sarili.

Nilingon ko sila Irene unnie ngunit lahat sila ay nakangiti lang. Lalong kumunot ang noo ko sa mga nangyayari.

"Oh, oh, baby
Yeah, oh, oh"

"If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we could be in love somehow
If you want the best for us
Like I want the best for us
Then we gotta learn to trust right now"

Unang nilabas sa screen yung pinakaunang picture namin na nakuhanan ng paparazzi. Nasa isang shop kami ng Chanel sa New York. That was three years ago.. Hindi pa kami non but we are exclusively dating.

"Don't let this effort go to waste
Put our all in it
Don't want to be left with the questions "Why?"
Let's be honest with ourselves
Did we really come this far
Just to watch it go down the drain?"

Second picture na inilabas ay noong nasa Hawaii kami. Its his instagram post. Naka two piece ako noon. Cropped Tank Top at Bikini bottom then si Jus naman ay naka topless at board shorts. Nakayakap kami sa isa't isa noon habang nakatingin sa camera.

"Yeah, sometimes the heart can see what's invisible to the eye
All you gotta do is listen to your deepest feelings
They don't ever lie
Well giving up is immature
There's so much more to live for
They don't wanna see us together now
'Cause we're strong enough to endure, whoa"

May clip na nilabas kung saan nasa gitna kami ng New York Time Square. Nagkaroon ng flash mob at tinanong niya ako roon kung pwede na bang maging kami. Officially.

"If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we could be in love, somehow
If you want the best for us
Like I want the best for us
Then we gotta learn to trust right now"

The next picture shown was our first anniversary in Paris. Yung kasunod ay isang video na kung saan ay sumasayaw kami ni Justin ng slow dance with the tune of Can't Help Falling In Love, version ni Just. Lumukso si Jus pababa ng umaangat na entablado.

"Growing pains come along with these changes
Some people get closer some people separate, yeah
Don't think we should separate
And we both adore one another
You're a dream come true
We should start off brand new
That's what we ought to do, yeah"

Hinanap niya ako sa mga tao at nang makita niya ako ay agad siyang lumukso pababa ng stage.

"Sometimes the heart can see what's invisible to the eye
All you gotta do is listen to your deepest feelings
They don't ever lie
Well giving up is immature
There's so much more to live for
They don't wanna see us together now
'Cause we're strong enough to endure, whoa"

Habang kinakanta ang bawat lirika ng kanta ay tinatahak niya ang daan patungo sa kung saan ako naroroon. Unti unti kong nararamdaman ang namumuong luha sa aking mga mata.

"If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we could be in love somehow
If you want the best for us
Like I want the best for us
Then we gotta learn to trust right now"

Nagbigay na ng daan ang mga tao dito sa puwesto namin. Tumakbo siya papalapit sakin at hinawakan ang aking kamay.

"Trust me right now
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ah-ah-ah
Oh, we gotta learn to trust now
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ah-ah-ah
Girl you gotta learn to trust me now Hey, hey, yeah"

May spotlight na tumutok saming dalawa. Nilingon ko ang malaking screen sa entablado.. Kaming dalawa.. Ang nangyayari ngayon.. Iyon ang ipinapakita sa screen.

"If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we could be in love
If you want the best for us
I got the best for us
We gotta learn to trust
We gotta learn to trust
Yeah, whoa, whoa"

Nang matapos niya ang kanta ay hinapit niya ang aking bewang.

"Babe, first of all, thank you for loving me. You gave me purpose.. to live.. to love again. Everytime I stare at you, I feel like I'm the luckiest man on earth. I know you are still not ready the time I confessed to you but you still open your heart.. o give me a chance. From the very first moment I saw you. I knew from that moment that it was already you. From the moment you said yes until now.. I still can't believe that you're mine."

Tuluyan na akong napahagulgol noong lumuhod siya sa aking harapan habang hawak ang aking kamay. Binaba niya ang kanyang mic. Naglabas siya ng isang velvet box at binuksan ito.

Shit. It's the engagement ring that I'm dreaming for. Iisa lang ang pang engagement ring na iyon sa mundo kaya naman hindi na ako umasa pang makukuha ko iyon.

Hinawakan ni Wendy unnie ang mic at itinapat iyon sa bibig ni Justin. "Can you be mine? Forever?" lumunok siya at nagsalitang muli. "Will you marry me?"

Nagtilian ang lahat ng tao dito.. Is this a dream?

Napatakip ako sa aking bibig at napahagulgol.

Lahat ay naghihintay ng isasagot ko ko.

Dahan dahan akong tumango.

Ngumiti si Jus, "Yes?"

"Y-yes.. Yes!"

Isinuot niya sakin ang singsing at saka niyakap ako ng mahigpit.

Nagpalakpakan ang mga nasa concert venue.

"I love you." bulong niya sakin.

"I love you more." sabi ko naman.

"I love you most.." sabi niya at saka inilapat ang labi sa aking noo.

Tapos sa tungki ng aking ilong..

Tapos dahan-dahang inilapat ang kaniyang labi sa aking labi.

May fireworks na sumilay sa kalangitan at napangiti ako sa nagawang mensahe ng mga ito.

"Saranghae, Kang Seulgi ."

At may pahabol pang mensahe..

"Justin ❤ Seulgi"

Tinignan ko sa mata si Justin at hinawakan ang magkabila niyang pisngi.

"Thank you for making me the happiest girl in the world. I love you so much." saka ko pinagdikit ang noo at ilong namin.

"I love you too." He whispered then I just felt his lips against mine.
