Chapter 34

PABIRO kong pinag tatampal ang mukha ni Diken. I think nagulat si Maggy sa sigaw nya kasi bilang pumainlanlang sa apat na sulok ng condo ang iyak nito na agad namang dinaluhan ni Lindy.

Nakapameywang akong humarap sa kanya.

"Why the hell are you shouting Mister!" I ask annoyed at him.

Malambing nya akong niyakap. I know there's a hint of smile on his voice.

"Natakot kasi ako ng di mo sagutin ang tawag ko eh" aniya na parang bata.

I look ay my phone. Its fucking ..

"You shouted like that because i did not answer after three rings? Are you out of your mind!?" Halos pabulong kong sigaw. Wala ng maingay. Maybe Lindy made Maggy's calm down. Ayoko ng maingay. Ang sakit sa tainga.

"Eh kasi naman Misis, Nag ka phobia na ata ako sa hindi mo pagsagot ng tawag ko" sagot nito na nakanguso.

I stilled remembering what he called me.

At parang wala lang iyon sa kanya?

How dare him!

"W-what d-did you just c-call me?" I stammer.

Kunot noon tumingin sya akin, without breaking the hugs.

"Huh?" Nalilito nyang tanong.

"What did you just call me?" Ulit ko sa mababang boses.

It looks like he already knew what I am asking because there's a playful smile on his lips.

And it so damn attractive! I want to kiss that lip!

Unconsciously, I am biting my lip.

He groan.

"Uh, Misis naman, Stop biting your lip" he hardly said while touching my lips with his fingers.

Ilan beses nya pa itong pinadaan ng hinlalaki nya.

"You call misis" i stated.

"You call me Mister. I call it Quits" he said playfully.

"Ah ganon pala" inabot ko ang tainga nya para pingutin.

Kaso, hindi ko maabot kasi ang tangkad nya. He's too tall for a 5'3 like me. He's a 6 footer for heaven's sake!

"Misis, pakasal na tayo" he said. Nakapatong sa balikat ko ang baba nya.

"Is that how you propose Mister. So romantic." I mock him.

Para naman itong nabuhusan ng tubig.

She can see sadness accross his face.

"I'm sorry .." nakayukong sabi nito.

Naawa sya.

"I'm just kidding."

Pero hindi nagbago ang mukha nito.

Natahimik din ito which bother her

Ilang minuto pang walang nagsalita.

Tinatanong din nya ang sarili.

Papayag ba sya?

"Dike. .." Tawag nya sa pangalan nito.

Pero nanatili itong tahimik. Parang malalim iyon, wala na rin ang mapaglarong emosyon na meron ito kanina.

"Y-Yes." Nakapikit na bulong nya pero alam nya, sapat na iyong para makarating sa pandinig nito.

"Yes What?" tanong nito.

"Pumapayag na ako."

Napatayo ito at napatitig sa kanya.

Then she saw how his tear fell from his eyes.

"Diken .." she reach out for his face.

Yumuko ito.

"Really? You're going to marry me?" umiiyak na ito.

She can tell that he's happy.

Tumango sya habang pinupunasan ang mga luha nito.

She is crying too!

"Yes, I will. Without a formal proposal, without a ring, without fancy and romantic place, Yes i will marry you."

Napapikit sya ng may ngiti sa labi.

She never been this happy.

Nagulat pa sya ng may mga labing lumapat sa labi nya.

At nang imulat nya ang mga mata ay nakita nya ang mata nitong nakatitig sa kanya.

It was a quick sweet kiss.

They smiling at each other.

They are looking lovingly at each other.

"I love you, My soon to be Misis"

"And i love you too, my soon to be Mister"

And that moment,

She realize,

It was the best ever decision she ever made in her entire life.

She, saying yes to him for marriage.
