In My Eyes by Edward Barber

Reality

Edward stared at his beautiful wife. He doesn't like it everytime she wears revealing clothes. Right now she's wearing a black gown, with slit in front up to her thighs.
He don't want to be rude but he can't complain since they are attending a ball and he can't choose the dress for her. Their stylist always decide on this things. But this one, he felt like he want to bring her home because of the stares and looks of male guests to her.
He casually stride and hold her hand.
May..
Edward..
Can we go home now?
Hala hindi pa tapos at may award pa tayo mamaya... pagod ka na ba? "
Maymay caressed his face as if checking if he is okay. He felt a sudden sensation as he held her by her waist. He tenderly put a kiss on her head. Maymay tried to pull away..
Edward .. ano ba..ang daming tao.
So what May? You are may wife...  I kiss you when I want to...
Hindi naman ganon.. baka magtaka sila. Hindi pa nila alam..
May ....
Please mag usap tayo mamaya..
Kiss me first...
Hala Edwardo patay tayo nyan...
If you don't kiss me right now I would tell everyone in this room about us. "
He stared at her seriously.
Bushak ka talaga ... halika doon tayo sa room natin mag usap.
No. I won't go without you kissing me first.
Okay okay pero smack lang no sa cheeks lang...
Kiss me on my lips my wife...
Nakuuu... ano ba nakain mo bakit para kang naglilihi...
Blame it on your dress. I hate it coz all the guys are looking at you as if they want to undress you. What's with that slit?! I want to tear that gown.
Napahalakhak si Maymay at sya ay niyakap.
Nako naman asawa ko. Matagal na kong nagdadamit nang tulad nito. Ngayon ka pa ba magseselos? Asawa mo na ako no...
He find it too adorable when she makes lambing like this to him. And he is melting.
Okay okay May .. you always win... but where is my kiss?
She tiptoed and planted a sweet kiss on his lips.
Just as all the cameras flashed and captured that moment.
Maymay hid her face on his chest as he hugged her tightly.
Okay guys stop all the commotion.
We are just too happy tonight.
Are you two getting married?" One guest asked bravely.

It is sooner than you think guys. And we will
let you know when it is. Just give us our privacy to enjoy ourselves first.
Nagpalakpakan ang lahat nang nakarinig sa sinabi nang binata.
Edward felt his wife shuddered.
He lift her face and kissed her tenderly on her forehead.
Don't be afraid love. We can get through this.
Will you dance with me.?
He led her towards the ballroom where other pairs are already dancing to
a sweet music.
He then held her tightly as they sway to the music.

Edward hummed with the song.

"someday, when I offly low... and the world is cold.
I will feel aglow just thinking of you.
And the way you look tonight"

He looked at her and he saw that she is so quiet.

May... are you angry that I told them that we are getting married?
Hindi... pero baka bukas headline na tayo at pagpiyestahan nila ang balitang ikakasal na tayo...

But we can not hide the truth forever. But if you are not comfortable with this set up. I could take back what I said. I don't want to
you to feel bad.
No.. okay na ako Edwardo at least alam na nila.
At least hindi na tayo magtatago nang nararamdam natin.
He hugged her tightly and kissed her hair.
I love you so much May!
I love you more asawa ko.
Let's go home na...
Ha? Ang aga pa...
He pressed himself to her closer and whispered "Can you not tell how much I want to make love to you right now Mrs. Marydale Barber?"
He saw his wife blushed and smiled despite the darkness of the ballroom.
He grabbed her buttocks and slowly pressed
her towards him. She could feel his growing manhood.
She pushed him slowly and take his hand.
Tayo na nga! Pasaway ka talaga ...
He laughed loudly and put his arms around her shoulder as they make their way outside.
Let's go home my sweet wife...
She stared at him and mouthed i love you...
