Pagkatapos ng mahaba-habang batian ay namataan ko ang dalawa kong kaibigan na papalapit. Malukong ngumiti si Collete, kabaliktaran naman ang mukha ni Benito na mukhang natalo sa sugal.

"Man, congrats. Hindi ka na makaka score sa mga chickas ko sa Lucid's" the bastard will be a bastard, klaro sa bibig nito. Nagfist bump pa sa akin to think na gusto ko ng bigwasan ng suntok ang isang ito.

"Hey! Fuck off. You know I don't play in your club before and it will definitely never happen now" I snap at him and look at Benito na mukhang walang planong I congratulate ako "Hey ninong! Congratulate me" I demanded him.

Nangunot ang noo niya kasabay ng paghagalpak ni Collete. He did congratulate me just by nodding.

"He is not feeling his role in this wedding, bakit mo naman ginawang ninong si Ben?" Collete is still laughing. Napailing naman si Benito.

Collete is my Bestman and Benito is one of my principal sponsor. Siya kasi ang pinaka kuripot sa aming tatlo kaya it's my way para makabawi naman ako sa mga na invest ko sa taong ito.

"He is loaded, he can give me millions as wedding gift, diba Ben?"

"Whatever, I'll just eat for a good of two meals mamaya sa reception para makabawi naman ako"

"Hey! Why don't you get him as a ninong too on your wedding para bawi-bawi na talaga, bilyonaryo kayong pareho pero ang kukuripot niyo" reklamo ni Collete, mas nangunot pa ang noo ni Benito.

He is the typical Cassanova and just like me before, these two doesn't believe in love. Kaya kung kasal ang pag-uusapan, natatakot sila. I am just lucky enough to marry the woman I love.

Natigil lang kami when the wedding coordinator get our attention na magsisimula na ang ceremony. I settled in the middle of mom and dad who cannot hide their excitement. I am also excited, I know Crisanta is in here, somewhere.

"Mom, is Crisanta already here?" hindi ko napigilang itanong kay mom but she look at me at mabilis akong sinaway.

"Can you stop doing that?"

"What?" binalingan ko si dad asking if he does have any idea what mom is talking about pero nagkibit lang siya ng balikat.

"You are ruining the element of surprise, just be at ease okay?"

Kahit labag sa loob ko I obey her lalo pa at biglang lumiwanag ang loob ng simbahan. It looks even more magical on the inside of the church. I felt my heart jump a bit. At the face of the altar, I will say my vows of eternal love for Crisanta.

My dad tapped my back "I am so proud of you son"

I smiled at him and reach my both arms encircling them again.

Nagsimula nang tumunog ang violin sa isang malamyos na tunog. My focus was not in any of those but it added to my excitement dahil alam kong it is my time to walk towards that altar.

That was the slowest yet the fastest walk I ever did in my life. My paces are slow pero I can't feel my feet on the groud, I feel like flying and naabot na pala ako sa pwesto naming tatlo ng hindi ko namalayan.

I am patiently waiting as the entourage paraded inside the church. Hindi pala maganda na marami akong sinama sa entourage. Mas natatagalan kasi na masilayan ko si Crisanta.

The bronze door shut as the last pair of entourage entered the church. I know this is the moment. Nag-iba na ang tugtog and this time it felt so surreal that I can't help but tear up. Mabilis kong pinahiran iyon with my hands and I felt my parents rub my back. Tiningnan ko silang pareho and just like me they both are in tears.
