68 Chapter 64

"Marry me, again."- Special Title for the last chapters countdown.

PLEASE VOTE!

"Children, calm down will 'ya?" Narinig niyang na tatawang saway ni Eli Shah sa kanila.

"I'm glad for you.." Naka ngiting bulong pa sa kanya nito na ikina labas ng dalawang dimples nito.

Dahan dahan nito tinanggal ang naka ikot na gauze sa kanyang mga mata. She opened her eyes slowly at may ilang segundo siyang hindi nakapag salita.

"I.. It's still g..gray.." Hindi niya ma pigilan na bulalas sa mga ito.

"Nichollo, you said t..the operation was successful.." She heard Rey said at her right side ngunit hindi niya naman ito makuhang tapunan ng tingin.

"I.. It was.." Nagtatakang sang ayon naman ng Doktor niya dito.

"Pft! Ha- ha- ha!" At hindi na nga niya na pigilan ang malakas na pag tawa dahil sa itsura ng mga ito. It was priceless.

"Can someone tell me, what's going on?" George asked at her.

"Ha- ha- ha. You are all so, gullible. I was just joking. I can see.." Pag aamin niya sa mga ito at na pa hawak na siya sa tiyan dahil sa pag tawa.

But, the truth was she thought she was already in heaven a while ago dahil bumungad ba naman sa kanya ang mga guwapong kaibigan ni Rey na oh so, yummy.

Akala mo tuloy ay dinuduyan ka sa alapaap dahil sa ka guwapuhan ng mga ito. If she met them first before Rey ay baka mabaliw siya dahil hindi niya magagawang pumili kung sino ang pinaka guwapo sa mga ito.

"Huh?! Do you think this is funny?" A bald man asked him with the same voice of Rey.

Hinawakan pa nito ang kanyang balikat. Tinignan naman niya ito ng matagal dahil he looks familiar yet, hindi niya naman ito kilala.

"D.. Do I know you?" She asked at the bald man after she shook away his hands from her shoulder.

And this time ang mga kaibigan naman ni Rey ang tumawa kasama na din si Eli Shah. The bald man was bewildered at hindi niya alam kung bakit.

"Ha- ha- ha! Jeez. She's really funny.." Hindi maka move on sa pag tawa na sabi ni Shine.

"Yeah. Ha- ha- ha! This is so, f*cking priceless!" Reidd laughingly said at na iiyak na ito.

"She's really something." Alex can't help but, says to her.

"Damn it! Why the hell are you both laughing?! George! and Damon!" She heard the bald man hissed at Damon and George. Lalo naman lumakas ang halakhak ng mga ito.

"This is not funny!" Na mumulang sabi ng semi kalbong lalaki sa mga ito.

"I.. Is he a new recruit?" Naka kunot noo niyang tanong sa mga na tatawang lalaki. Why the hell are they laughing?

"Ha- ha- ha! New recruit?! Jesus! Ha- ha- ha!" Vash laugh out loud. Maging ang gusto mag pigil na sila Alex ay na bigo dahil sa sinabi niya.

"C.. Cameron, a.. are you in to bald man now?" Nak akunot noo pa niyang tanong dito.

"N.. No.. I mean.. Yeah.. No.." Hindi na makapag salita si Cameron ng maayos dahil sa labis na pag tawa.

"D.. Did I missed something? Why are you all laughing?" She asked confusedly again at them.

"Damn it! Shut up all of you!!! And get the hell out here! Visiting hour is over!" It looks like the bald man was pissed off. But, who is this guy?

"C'mon, share the fun Dude. We are not done yet, laughing." Xerces said while laughing.

"Y.. Yeah, he's right." Segunda naman ni Eli Shah na kanina pa umiiyak dahil sa pag tawa. Maging si Nichollo ay nag tanggal na muna ng salamin dahil sa mga luha nito.

"Jeez! I hate all of you!" Asik nito sa mga ito.

"S.. Sweetheart, ano ka ba? Don't be like this.." The bald man says at her sweetly. And she frowned at him literally.

"W.. Why are you calling me, Sweetheart? I.. I'm not your sweetheart. A.. Are you crazy?" Na iinis niyang asik dito at binilog pa niya ang daliri upang tanungin kung baliw nga ba talaga ito.

"Ha- ha- ha! Yeah, this guy is really crazy Isabelle. So, don't talk to him.." Na tatawang akbay ni Lee dito.

"D.. Don't listen to him, Sweetheart his a moron.." Mabilis na segunda ng semi kalbo na lalaki dito.

"H.. Hey! Don't touch me!" Palo niya sa kamay nito ng hawakan ang braso niya.

"W.. Where's Theo? T.. Theo?" She asked at them. Upang humanap na ng saklolo.

"I'm here, Babe." Taas nito ng kamay mula sa likuran ng mga nag tatawanan na lalaki.

"W.. Why are you laughing too?" She asked at him.

"N.. Nothing.." Pagsisinungaling nito habang pinipigilan nito ang matawa.

"Babe?! Why the hell are you here?! You supposed to be in LA!" The bald man hissed at Theo. Do they know each other?

"But, you are the one who said I can still see her. Di' ba?" Casual na sagot ni Theo dito.

"Then, no hugging! S.. Sweetheart, you are so mean. How can you look for him first before me?!" Reklamo nito sa kanila at inalis nito ang kamay ni Theo na naka akbay sa kanya.

"M.. Mr. Semi Kalbo, hindi ko alam ang trip mo.. Pero kung ayaw mong matuluyan stop using drugs.." Tuluyan na niyang na inis na sabi dito.

"Semi- Kalbo?!" Gulat na bulalas nito sa kanya.

"Ha- ha- ha! Semi Kalbo daw!" Halos sabay sabay na sigaw at pag tawa ng mga mag kakaibigan.

"Rence, it's me Rey. Ano ka ba?" Frustrated na sabi nito at hinawakan ang kanyang kamay.

"R.. Rey? Sino'ng Rey? Wala akong kilalang kalbo." Mabilis niyang tanggi at binawi ang kamay dito.

"Sweetheart, don't be so cold. It's me your husba--

"Rey?!" She exaggeratedly asked at him or should she say shouted?

"Y.. Yeah. Jeez. I just cut my hair hindi mo na ako na kilala. And why the hell did you asked this guy first?" Rey hissed at her. So, it was really him.

"N.. No.." Tanggi niya dito. Hindi sa sinasabi niya na naging pangit ito.

It's just really awkward to see him bald. He ws maintaining his long hair since 10 years ago. Nag pa gupit man ito ay hanggang tainga pa din ang haba ng buhok nito.

So, what the hell happened to his hair?!

"Yes, it's him.." Segunda ni Theo sa kanya.

"N.. No.." Muli niyang tanggi sa mga ito. Why did his Rey became bald?

"Hell, yes.." Naka ngising sabi ni Lee.

"W.. Why did you become bald? I told you to stop frowning and smile a little. Look what happened.." Na iinis niyang sermon dito.

"I did not become bald, Jesus. I cut my hair for crying out loud.." Frustrated na paliwnag nito sa kanya.

"B.. But, why?! You should give me one good reason.." Reklamo niya dito and she grabbed his collar.

"B.. Because of him!" Turo nito kay Theo.

"M.. Me? Why me? I'm just joking and you are the one who take it seriously.." Na tatawang sabi nito dito.

"I'm really gonna kill you.." Na iinis na sabi nito dito at tinangka itong lapitan.

"Hey, stop it!" Harang ni Alex sa dalawa.

"This is getting crazier.." Komento ni Xerces sa mga ito.

"I.. I can't believe it.." That's all she can say at na pa tulala na lang.

"Oh, it's very lively here.." Komento ni Rihanna ng maka pasok sa kuwarto.

"Yo." Bati naman ng mga kaibigan ni Rey dito and there she goes again, tulala na naman ang magaling niyang kaibigan.

"B.. Bakit ganyan ang itsura mo? Is there a problem?" Kunot noong tanong sa kanya ni Rihanna at mabilis siya nitong nilapitan.

"She can't accept Ryuuki's new hairstyle.." Theo answered it for her habang na tuptop ang bibig dahil sa pag tawa.

"Oh.." Iyon na lamang ang na sabi ni Rihanna dahil naki tawa na din ito.

"Rihanna! This is not funny!" Saway niya kay Rihanna.

"I.. I just can't help it.." Na mumula nitong sabi.

"S.. Sweetheart, d.. don't c..cry.." Rey said to her and hugged her.

"Don't, Sweetheart me!" Tulak niya dito.

"H.. Hija, mabuti naman at gising ka na. May bisita ka pala.." That was her Nana Margarita.

"Oh, b..bakit ka umiiyak?"

"Nana, si Ryuuki kasi.." Na tatawang sabi ni Rihanna sa matanda.

"R.. Ryuuki! Pina iyak mo na naman ang alaga ko!" Galit na sabi ng matanda at lumapit ito upang hamapsin sana ito ng payong.

Ngunit na iwasan nito iyon. Na tawa naman ang lahat ng nasa loob ng ospital imbis na pigilan ang matanda.

"N.. Nana, I didn't do anything wrong.." Pagpapaliwanag nito sa matanda.

"Nana, huwag po kayong maniwala diya'n. Pina iyak po talaga niya si Isabelle.." Segunda agad ni Theo dito.

"Shut up!" Rey hissed at Theo habang umiiwas sa payong ng kanyang Nana.

"I.. I change my mind.. I choose Theo.." Deklara niya dito na ikina gulat ng mga ito.

"Rence! That's not funny!" He hissed at her while widening his eyes.

"Sabi ko na nga eh. You like me too.." Naka gising akbay sa kanya ni Theo at ngumiti naman siya dito.

"I'm gonna kill you! Hands off!" Galit na galit na sigaw nito kay Theo.

"Ryuuki, bumalik ka dito.." Habol naman ng kanyang Nana dito.

"This is gonna be a long day.." Na pa iling na lang na sabi ni Vash.

"I agree.." Segunda ni Ten dito.

"But, I kinda envy them.." Cameron says.

"W.. Why?" Reidd asked.

"Because, they really did it. Didn't they?" Naka ngiti nitong sagot na tinutukoy ang hindi nila pag suko sa isa't isa.

"That's because they're meant to be.." Singit ni Eli Shah sa kanila.

"Y.. You believe in that?" Naka kunot na tanong ni Nichollo na tila hindi makapaniwala.

"Yep kahit hindi halata. Goodbye handsome, I do the rounds. Stay here with them.." Paalam nito sa Doktor at kumindat pa dito. Na gulat naman si Nichollo sa ginawa nito.

"Naku Pare, mukhang malapit ka na.." Siko ni Ten dito habang naka ngisi.

"S.. Shut up.." Nichollo hissed at him.

"Are you sure you don't like her?" Reidd asked him.

"What kind of question is that?" Tila pag iiba nito ng usapan.

"A kind of question wanting to know the truth?" Ten answered.

"Ten, don't start. She's my employee.. That's all." Paliwanag nito.

"Really? Then it's okay for me to court her? I think I like her.." Naka ngiting tanong ni Reidd.

"Do whatever you want! Damn it." Bulyaw nito dito at mabilis na lumabas ng pinto.

"Do whatever I want daw kahit na kung nakakamatay lang ang tingin niya namatay na siguro ako.." Na tatawang sabi ni Reidd.

"Pakipot pa kasi.." That was TEn habang hindi ma pigilang ang ma pa ngiti dahil sa na pikon na si Nichollo.

"Handsome? Is she talking about me?" Singit ni Lee at na piling naman muli ang mga kaibigan nito dito.

-----

"W.. Where's Ryuuki?" Nichollo asked her nang ma pansin na wala ito sa tabi niya.

Tila isang bagyo ang mga ito ng dumating at ganoon din naman ka bilis umalis. Everyone left an hour ago.

Rihanna is in the office and she asked her Nana to buy something for her kaya mag isa siya ngayon.

"H.. He said he have to drop something in his office.." Sagot niya dito and she saw him checked her dextrose.

"W.. When can I go home?" She asked at him.

"After all the tests are done. May be in 2-3 days.. Why? Are you still having a hard time sleeping?" Nichollo asked her at umiling siya.

"Do you want me to give you pills again?" He asked at her worriedly.

"N.. No.. I don't think I will be needing pills again.." She said with a warm smile. Bahagya itong na gulat ngunit na pa ngiti din.

"I'm glad to hear that.. and I'm really happy for both of you.." Naka ngiti nitong sabi sa kanya and she thinks this is the second time she saw him smile. He's gorgeous too.

"And I hope no more suicidal threat from both of you.." Sermon nito sa kanya na ikina tawa niya.

"It's good that you are now laughing happily and not sarcastically." Puna nito sa kanya.

"Am I?" At tuluyan na nga siyang na pa ngiti dito. Tumango naman ito sa kanya.

"By the way Doc, before I forget.." Habol niya dito nang tumayo ito.

"Hmmm? What is it?" Tanong nito ng lumingon sa direksyon niya.

"Thank you.." She sincerely said.

"Dummy. I'm a Doctor so, saving life is my job.." Na tatawang saway nito sa kanya at pinalo siya ng dala nitong patient's record list.

"Then, thank you for not giving up on me.." She said again. At na pansin niya na gulat ito sa sinabi niya.

"Gratitude accepted and you should also thank Ryuuki. Because he was the one who asked me.." He said with a smile.

"Is everything okay, Doc?" Theo asked at him ma tapos itong pumasok sa silid.

"Y.. Yeah, everything's fine. Oh, paano? I will give you some space muna. I'll be back later, Isabelle.." Paalam nito sa kanila.

"T.. Thanks.." She said before he left.

"You look good." Naka ngiting puri ni Theo sa kanya at na pa hawak naman siya sa kanyang pisngi.

"Iba talaga ang na gagawa ng pag ibig. Kahit patay na bubuhay.." Biro nito sa kanya.

"Sira. How are you?" Sunod sunod niyang tanong dito.

"I'm still adjusting.. now that you're not gonna be with me.. B.. But, I think I would do fine.." He honestly says at her.

"S.. Sorry for being a bad person.." Hingi niya ng tawad dito.

"Yeah, you really are a person.." Sang ayon nito sa kanya na ikina tawa nilang dalawa.

"I.. I missed that laugh. I thought I would never see that again.." He said while staring at her.

"T.. Thank you for everything.. I.. I own you a lot.." Pagpapasalamat niya dito at hinawakan ang kamay nito.

"I should be the one thanking you because you made me really happy with those years.." Sincere nitong sabi sa kanya.

"Idiot. Don't say that.." Yakap niya dito.

"How long will you stay? Let's have dinner after I go out here.." Alok niya dito.

"I.. I'm leaving this afternoon.." Pag aamin nito sa kanya na ikina gulat niya.

"W.. What? That fast? Can't you stay a little longer?" Pagpapa cute niya dito.

"If you look me like that I'm really gonna have a hard time.." Reklamo nito sa kanya at niyakap niya itong muli.

"I can't stay longer because if I do that.. I might continue to hold you.." Pag aamin nito sa kanya.

"Jeez. Stop your addiction in me. I know you can meet a better woman than me.." Biro niyang saway dito.

"I will really find a better woman than you as my revenge.." Pagmamalaki nito sa kanya na ikina tawa niya ng mahina.

"Yeah. Please do so.. Because if that will happen.. I'm really gonna be very happy for you.." Paki usap niya dito.

"Thank you for coming in to my life.." Pa salamat muli nito sa kanya at hinalikan ang kanyang noo.

"I.. I'm really glad I met you.." Ganti niya dito and smiled warmly at him.

"I.. I think I have to go.. Baka mamaya ako naman ang ma ospital dahil sa asawa mo.." Paalam na biro nito sa kanya.

"But, promise me one thing.." Pa habol pa nito sa kanya.

"Ano 'yon?" She asked at him.

"This time, fulfill your promise that you will make me a 'Ninong'.." Naka ngiting bilin nito sa kanya.

"W.. What are you saying?" Na mumula niyang tanong dito.

"And I want a girl.. A beautiful baby girl who looks like you.." Dagdag pa nitong sabi sa kanya.

"Jeez. You are so, demanding. But, fine. I'll t..try.." Na hihiya niyang sabi dito.

"Take care and I wish you all the happiness.." Bilin nito sa kanya.

"You too.. Take care and please have some rest too. Eat your meal properly and Jeez.. I'm really gonna miss you.." Bilin niya dito at muli itong niyakap. Hindi niya na pigilan ang pag patak ng kanyang mga luha.

"Me too. I'm gonna miss your nagging badly.." She heard him say and it looks like he was as sad as she.

"Goodbye.." That the last thing he said at tuluyan ng umalis.

"Mommy!" Excited na tawag sa kanya ni Riley. May dala ang bata na green roses na para sa kanya.

"Oh, thank you handsome.." Naka ngiti niyang sabi dito at kinuha ang rosas mula dito.

"Sweetheart, I bought some foods." Rey said at the back. May dala itong dalawang paper bag na may laman na pagkain.

"I.. I thought you're going to your office?" Nagtataka niyang tanong dito habang kinandong si Riley sa kanyang tabi.

"For me, you're more important than the company.." Simple nitong sagot sa kanya at nag simula ng mag hain.

"Nichollo told me you can go out after 2-3 days.. And I want to go on date with you.." Deklara nito sa kanya.

"W.. What?" Iyon na lamang ang kanyang na sabi dahil sa gulat. Why is he so, blunt?

"I said I want us to go on date.." Pag uulit pa nito sa kanya.

"I don't want to waste time for something I'm not happy about. So, starting from now.. I'll stick to you till death.." He said at her with a smile.

"Why does that sounds annoying instead sweet?" She asked at him sarcastically.

"Ayaw mo?" Tanong nito sa kanya habang inabutan siya ng take out na pagkain. May ilang sandali siyang hindi naka sagot dito.

"I.. I like it." Na hihiya niyang sagot dito.

"Well, then it's decided." Naka ngiti nitong sabi sa kanya.

"Riley, you want Mommy to feed you?" She asked to the cute child and he nodded at her.

"So, cute.."

"P.. Paano naman ako?"

"Hmmm.. Wala akong kilalang semi kalbo.." Na tatawa niyang biro dito. At maging ang bata ay na tawa.

"Hey, you're still on to that? C'mon, it will grow back too.." Saway nito sa kanya.

"You are being so, mean to me. Do you think I already forget what you said a while ago? You said that you will choose Theo over me.." Reklamo pa nito sa kanya at sinimangutan pa siya nito.

(Is he jealous?) Naka ngiti niyang tanong sa sarili. He looks cute.

"Jeez. You are such a nagger.." Reklamo niya dito at tinakpan ang mga mata ni Riley gamit ang kanyang kamay.

And that's when she kissed him quickly before he can reacts ay lumayo na siya dito. Gusto niya naman matawa dahil sa pagka bigla nito.

"I think being jealous really is a good thing.." Naka ngisi nitong sabi at ngumiti ng nakaka loko sa kanya.

"H.. How's everything?" She casually asked him.

"Hmmm.. Business is the same as usual.. But, today is different.." Naka ngiti nitong sagot.

"W.. Why?" Tanong niya dito matapos sumubo.

"Because, today I'm really happy dahil gising ka na. And you can see the beautiful things around you kaya masaya ako.." Masaya nitong sabi sa kanya.

"S.. Saying those words so, casually.." Na mumula niyang saway dito.

"T.. Thank you for making me feel alive again, Sweetheart.." He said sincerely at her pagkatapos ay hinalikan ang kamay niya.

"A.. Ano ka ba? R.. Riley is here.." Na hihiya niyang sabi at binawi ang kanyang kamay mula dito.

"But, look at him. He looks like he was enjoying it too.." Naka ngiti nitong sabi at tinuro ang pamangkin nito na humahagikgik.

"And by the way, Riley started to have his private lessons with his tutors yesterday.." Kuwento nito sa kanya.

"R.. Really? That's great!" She said happily.

"Yeah and because I want him to go schooling next year.." Dagdag pa nito.

"Riley, I'm so happy for you. Isn't that great? You should study hard, 'kay? Because if you do, I'll buy you strawberry cake everyday.." Na tutuwa niyang sabi dito at hinalikan ito sa pisngi.

"Cake! Cake! Cake!" Excited na sabi nito.

"Kung titignan mula dito you look a very happy family. Iyon nga lang, Riley's mother is me and not you.." The lady in the white coat says sarcastically nang pumasok ito mula sa pinto.

Biglang na bitawan ni Rey ang kubyertos nito an tila ito tinulos sa kina uupuan nito. Siya naman ay na pa tingin dito.

The woman looks familiar ngunit hindi niya maalala kung saan ito nakita. She had a bob cat golden brown hair. She looks beautiful and sexy.

Na pansin din niya ang biglang pag asim ng mukha ni Rey and he looks very angry at the moment. Bahagya tuloy siyang na takot sa istura nito.

(Riley's mother is me and not you..) Tila doon niya lamang na realize ang sinabi nito. Bigla naman yumakap sa kanya si Riley dahil mukhang bigla itong na takot.

"Aren't you going too far? To think that you even borrowed the doctor's coat just to pass all the bodyguards outside.." Napaka lamig na tanong ni Rey dito.

They all felt the strong tension in the atmosphere. Ngunit hindi man lang ito na intimidate sa sinabi ni Rey at tinanggal lamang nito ang suot nitong shades at white coat saka pumuhit pa harap sa kanya.

"This is nothing compare to how I missed my son. C'mon, Riley give your Mom a kiss.." Naka ngiti nitong baling sa anak ngunit mas lalo itong nag tago sa likod niya.

"Now, that's funny Leandra. You sent your son alone from Singapore through here and now you're saying you missed him?" May halong galit na tanong nito sa babae.

(Leandra?) She heard that name before. Saan na nga ba?

"I didn't expect her to be this famous. Do you mind introducing me to your new girl? You even bring my son with you.. Is that some new strategies?" Segunda dito ni Rey at tumalim naman ang mukha nito dito.

"And please don't be too harsh on me Ryuuki. Para naman tayong walang pinag samahan.. By the way, na sabi ko na ba na you look very manly in your new hair cut?" Tila malambing na sabi nito dito at dahan dahan itong lumapit dito upang hawakan ang mukha nito.

It was as if a deja vu ng mag sink in sa kanya ang lahat ng nangyari noon at nangyayari ngayon.

"Isn't rude to touch someone else' husband?" Matalim niyang tanong dito at na pa lingon naman ito sa kanya.

"Husband?" Gulat na tanong nito sa kanila.

"Sweetheart, it's fine I will—

"Shut up, Rey. Yeah, you heard me. I'm that man's wife. So, don't touch him carelessly." Babala niya dito.

"Riley, don't worry Mommy will protect you.." She promise to the young boy who's really afraid right now. She slowly strokes his head and smiles to him.

"Mommy? And who do you think you are? Your not his Mom.." Leandra asked her irritatedly at lalapitan sana siya nito ngunit hinarang ito ni Rey.

"What do you think you're doing?! Get out." Mataas ang boses na utos nito dito.

"Rey, take care of Riley for a moment.." Bilin niya dito at mabilis na tinanggal ang naka kabit sa kanyang dextrose. Kaya naman dumugo iyon.

Masakit man ang ginawa niyang biglang pagkaka hugot ay hindi iyon papantay sa labis na sakit at galit na nararamdaman niya. And she slowly walks towards her.

"W.. What do you want? Do you think you can scared me?" Hamon nito sa kanya at imbis na sumagot ay hinila niya ito pa labas.

"L.. Let me go! Damn it! What do you think you're doing?!" Pagpupumiglas nito sa kanya ngunit hindi niya ito binitawan.

"S.. Seniorita, is everything all--

"Huwag kayo maki alam dito.." Matalim niyang pukol sa naka linya niyang mga bodyguard sa hallway at mabilis niyang nilagpasan ang mga iyon.

"Na sisiraan ka na ba? Let me go sabi!" Sigaw nito sa kanya at tinangka nitong bawiin ang kamay nito ngunit mas lalo niyang hinigpitan ang pagkaka hawak dito at binilisan ang kanyang pag hila dito.

"If I were you I'll behave dahil hindi mo ako gusto makita magalit." Babala niya dito.

"You b*tch! I'm gonna sue you kapag hindi mo ako binitawan! I said let go! Ano ba na sasaktan ako?! Aray sabi!" Sunod sunod na sigaw nito sa kanya.

At dahil sa sobrang bilis ng kanyang paglalakad niya ay bumagsak ito sa sahig ngunit hindi niya pa din ito binitawan at pa tuloy niya pa din itong hinila o ang tama bang sabihin ay kinakaladkad niya ito ngayon.

"B.. Blood..." Na mumutla na komento nito ng tumulo ang kanyang dugo na nagmumula sa pinag kabitan ng kanyang dextrose.

She's wearing a gray dress kaya kitang kita sa damit nito ang patak ng kanyang dugo.

"N.. No.. No.. p..please no.." Takot na takot na tanggi nito ng bahagya siyang na pa tigil dahil gusto niyang makita ang itsura nito.

"You said you're gonna sue me, kaya hindi naman siguro masama kung sulutin ko na.." She said at her without blinking her eyes. Pagkatapos ay hinila niya ito pa baba sa hagdan.

"T.. Tama na! Tama na! Aray! Aray! Awww!" Paki usap nito at daing sa kanya ngunit tila siya walang naririnig.

"Does it hurts?" She asked at her sarcastically habang pa tuloy itong hila hila pa baba ng hagdan.

"Damn it! Baliw ka ba?! You can't hurt me like this! Who the hell are you to do this to me?!" Naghi- histerya nitong sabi sa kanya.

"Mukhang na kukulangan ka pa.." That's all she said at hinila ito sa ikatlong hagdan pa baba.

"Ouch! You son of a b*tch! Papatayin kita kapag na ka wala ako dito!" Pagbabanta pa nito sa kanya at na laglag naman ang sapatos na suot nito habang hula hila niya ito.

"Let's do another round.." Walang emosyon niyang sabi dito at hinila ito muli pababa sa susunod na hagdan.

"H.. Hey.. T.. Tama na.. Tama na, please.. N.. Na sasaktan ako. B.. Bakit mo ba to' ginagawa? Hindi naman kita kilala.." This time ay mahinahon ang boses nito.

At ngayon ay nag mamakaawa na ito sa kanya. Her legs are full of bruises and swollen already. Marahil ay na sasaktan na ito ng sobra.

"That's the problem. You don't even know me but, you hurt me too much. You are the reason I lost my whole world. My husband and my child.." Galit na galit niyang sabi dito after she throws her back to the wall.

"I.. I don't know what you are say—

"Damn it! You crazy b*tch! Do you know what I've been through because of you?!" Hindi na niya na pigilan ang sarili na masigawan ito.

"H.. Hindi--

"Siguro nga hindi matatandaan dahil sa dami ng mga masamang bagay na ginawa mo.. But, allow me to remind you how I felt.." Naka ngiti niyang sabi dito at hinila ito muli pa baba.

"Please tama na! Tama na! I.. I'm sorry kung ano man ang na gawa ko! Please tama na!" Pagmamakaawa muli nito sa kanya habang hinihila niya ito sa hagdan.

"I like your reaction. May be, we should stop here.." She said at her after she stared her face pagkatapos ay binitawan na ito at isandal sa pader.

"From now on, I don't wanna see your face again.. At kapag nakita kita na ginugulo mo ang asawa ko at si Riley ay hindi lang 'yan ang aabutin mo.."

"Riley is my so--

"What kind of mother would hurt her son? And you should not make me repeat it twice.. dahil baka hindi mo magustuhan ang gagawin ko.. Hindi ako maka kapayag na saktan mo uli si Riley kaya umalis ka na sa buhay namin.." She warned at her while staring her intensely.

Tinangka pa siya nitong sampalin kahit na halatang na nginginig pa din ito sa ginawa niya. Hinawakan niya naman ang kamay nito pagkatapos ay sinampal niya ito.

"Aww! Do you think you can get away with this just like that?! You crazy son of a b*tch! Pagbabayaran mo ito!" Galit an galit na sigaw nito sa kanya.

Hindi naman siya nakapag pigil kaya she grabbed her collar at bahagya itong na pa angat sa sahig.

"You're not wrong. Yes, I do am crazy mentally and that's thanks to you. Salamat sa pang gugulo mo sa buhay ko. That hurts? C'mon, that's just an appetizer.." Segunda niya dito at pinandilatan pa ito habang nasa ere.

Hindi na ito nag salita pa dahil na nginginig na ito.

"You'll sue me? Be my guest. And here's my calling card baka kasi mamaya ibang tao ang idemanda mo. I'll see you in court.." Hamon niya dito bago ito tuluyang binitawan.

Kaya na pa salpak ito sa sahig habang na pa tulala.

"W.. What's happening here? Why's there blood?" Nagtatakang tanong ng isang nurse nang ma salubong sila nito sa fire exit. Na bitawan pa nito ang mga dala nitong linen sa sahig.

"What did you do to her? Ma'am, okay lang kayo?" Nag aalang tanong nito kay Leandra.

"Don't worry, it's my blood not hers. By the way, there are also some stain from this exit through 6th floor. Ah yeah.. before I forget you can charge her bill to me.. She have my calling card so, the details are there.." Paliwanag niya dito bago tuluyang umalis.

"T.. That woman.. she's crazy.." She heard Leandra says before she goes.

-----

"R.. Rence, a.. are you okay? W.. Where's she?" Nag aalalang tanong ni Rey sa kanya ng maka pasok muli sa silid.

"Y.. You're bleeding! Oh my God! What happened?" Muli nitong tanong ngunit nilagpasan niya ito at nilapitan si Riley.

"Call Nichollo!" Utos ni Rey sa kanyang mga bodyguard sa labas.

"R.. Riley, e..everything's gonna be alright. T.. The bad woman is g..gone now. So, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore.." She said to the young boy habang naka luhod dito.

"M.. Mommy will protect you.. I will never let her hurt you again, 'kay?" She said then he hugs the young boy tightly and he cried in her arms.

"I.. I'm sorry for being late.." Hingi niya ng tawad dito at hindi na pigilan ang ma pa luha na din. Naramdaman naman nila ang biglang pag yakap sa kanila ni Rey.

"I love you both. I promise Daddy will protect you and Mommy.." Rey says while hugging them.

-----

"I hope I'll never see you again here.." Biro sa kanya ni Nichollo habang pa alis na siya ng ospital.

"Yeah. I don't wanna go back here too. Because my Doctor is a bit moody.." Balik niya dito na ikina tawa din nito.

"Take care and I'll see you around.." Naka ngiti nitong sabi sa kanya.

"Jeez. The hospital's gonna get boring again without you.." Malungkot na sabi ni Eli Shah sa kanya.

"Hey, we can still see each other outside and please for all the places ay dito ko pinaka ayaw manatili. Hospital is only for sick people ano ka ba?" Saway niya dito at ito naman ang na tawa.

"Okay, let's see each other outside. Take care, Isabelle.." Naka ngiti nitong sabi sa kanya.

"That sounds good and thank you.." Naka ngiti niya din na balik dito at niyakap ito.

"N.. No, bawal ka mabinat ako na magdadala nito.." Saway sa kanya ni Rey at kinuha ang hand bag niya.

"Jeez. That was less than a kilo. You are overacting.." Saway niya dito.

"I just don't want you to get tired. Kaya ako na ang magdadala ng lahat na 'to.." Malambing nitong sabi at binuhat ang iba pa niyang gamit.

"Oh, how sweet. I didn't know you have this side.." Tukso ni Eli Shah dito.

"He really loves nagging.." Reklamo niya dito.

"Doc, you don't have to envy them. I can do that for you.." Biro ni Eli Shah dito na ikina pula nito.

"P.. Puro ka kalokohan.." Na hihiya nitong sabi dito.

"Oh, you really looks cute when you blush.." Tukso pa muli nito.

"Where's my Riley?" Tanong niya dito.

"He had tutors at this time. You can see him later." Sagot nito at tumango naman siya dito.

"Nichollo, before we disturb your loving moments magpapa alam na kami.."Biro niya dito.

"Pati ba naman ika--

"Trust me. Bagay kayo. Give it a chance para naman hindi agad pumuti ang buhok mo. And thank you for taking care of me.." Yakap niya dito at bumulong dito.

"S.. Sweetheart.. Did you just hugged him?" Nagse selos na tanong ni Rey sa kanya.

"If you'll be needing investor, let me know.." Pa habol pa niya dito at ngumiti dito.

"Rey, if you say one more word uuwi na lang ako mag isa.." Babala niya dito.

"Sabi ko nga tara na.." Pag iiba nito ng usapan at inakbayan na siya nito pa labas.

"Can you drop me to the office?" She asked at him.

"No, you're not going to the office.." Naka ngiti nitong kontra sa kanya.

"I don't think that you are in the right position to stop me.." Matalim niyang sabi dito nang sila ay nasa sasakyan na.

"I am your husband, isn't that enough?" Naka ngiti pa din nitong balik sa kanya.

"Rey, I've missed a lot of days. Rihanna can't shoulder everything. So, please drop me in the office.." She frustratedly says to him.

"Sweetheart, you don't have to act cute because you're already cute in my eyes. But, it's still a 'NO'.." Matigas pa din nitong sabi.

"If I know that you'll be this pushy I should've given you a lot of hard time.." Na iinis niyang sabi dito at kinuha nito ang kamay niya pagkatapos ay hinalikan iyon.

"Ten years was already enough hard time, Sweetheart.." Seryoso nitong sabi sa kanya.

"I think so, too.." And she just admit her defeat dahil totoo ang sinabi nito.

"For today just have some rest at bukas ka na pumasok. 'Kay?" Paki usap nito sa kanya and looking at his face right now ay mukhang hindi ito tatanggap ng 'No'.

"Do I have a choice? But, I'll listen to you if you kiss me.." Seryoso pa sana niyang sabi ngunit tinukso niya din ito noong huli.

"W.. What?" Tila hindi makpaniwalang tanong nito at pumarada sa gilid. Kitang kita niya naman ang pamumula nito.

"If you don't want to, then drive me to the off— Hindi niya na tapos ang sa sabihin dahil hinawakan nito ang magka bialng pisngi niya and he kissed her.

At na tagpuan niya ang sarili na kumapit sa batok nito. The kissed their shared was really sweet and she can't get enough of it. And he was the one who pulls out first.

"Y.. You would be in big trouble if we will not stop now.." He said frustratedly at her.

"C'mon, I want to kiss you pa. But, I think I like that trouble Rey.." Malambing pa niyang sabi dito na ikina ungol nito.

"You're killing me.." Reklamo nito sa kanya at hindi niya na pigilan na matawa.

"Fine, I'll just go to office tomorrow.. You're so, cute.." Tukso niya dito.

"Ahm.. by the way Sweetehart, do you know what day is today?" Tanong nito sa kanya.

"Tuesday?" She answered at him.

"I'm not talking about that.. It's October 21st today." He said emphasizing the date today.

"What's with today? It's not our birthday." She confusedly asked him.

"Jeez. You are really getting old.." Dissapointed na sabi nito sa kanya.

"Why? What's with today?" Kulit niya dito.

"Today is Tuesday." Pilosopo nitong sagot sa kanya. What's with today? Why the hell is he acting like this?

"But, I hope hindi mo naman nakalimutan ang date natin tonight?" Tanong nito sa kanya at ngumiti lang isya dito nang pagka tamis tamis.

"You forget it?" May kataasan na boses na tanong nito.

"O.. Of corse not! Siyempre hindi ko na kalimutan.." Mabilis niyang tanggi dito at niyakap ito.

"R.. Really? You did not?" Paninigurado nito sa kanya.

"Oo naman." Malambing niyang pagsisinungaling dito.

"And I would like to apologize in advance Sweetheart but, I can't pick you up later. I have a sudden appointme—

"If you're busy we can have dinner tomo—

"No.. No.. I am not that busy.. So, let's not cancel our date 'kay?" Segunda agad nito sa kanya.

"Oh, here we are." Naka ngiti nitong sabi sa kanya.

Sinalubong naman sila ng mga security personnel at kinuha ang kanyang mga gamit sa compartment.

"Jeez. When did my husband become so, clingy?" Malambing niyang tanong dito.

"I became like this because you always run away from me.. Baka mamaya ma takasan mo na naman ako.." Naka ngiti nitong biro sa kanya.

"I think I should give you a little token for taking care of me for the past few days.." She said with a sexy smile at he gave her a look of 'What is it?'

She removed her seatbelt and hugs him very tight pagkatapos ay hinalikan niya ito. She slowly pressed her body to him.

The kiss was not as sweet as what they shared a while ago because it was a very passionate deep kiss. Naramdaman niya naman ang pagka bigla nito kaya hindi ito agad naka tugon sa kanya.

And before he can kissed her back she already let him go.

"Ooops. I might be in big trouble, right? That's why I already let you go.." Saway niya dito at pinunasan pa ang gilid ng labi nito dahil humawa ang lipstick niya dito.

"Re—

"See you later, dear husband.." She said and gave him the cutest wink bago pa ito makapag salita. Tinangka pa siyang hilahin nito ngunit mabuti na lamang at naka seatbelt ito kaya mabilis niya itong na takasan.

"Hey, come back here! You little fox! Rence!" Tawag nito sa kanya ngunit tinawanan lang niya ito. She really can't get enough of teasing him.

-----

"What's with the date today?" She can't help but, wonder. Kanina pa niya iniisip ang sinasabi ni Woodman ngunit hindi talaga niya makuha ang sinsabi nito.

But, may be before she thinks that ay dapat mamili muna siya ng isusuot sa mga damit na kanyang nilabas ngayon.

All of her dress were in the top of her bed dahil kanina pa siya hindi makapamili ng isusuot.

"Should I wear white?" She asked at herself.

"But, being a bit sexy is what I like.." Sa wakas ay naka pili na siya ng isusuot. Their dinner is at 7:30pm so, she still have more than one hour.

She decided to wear one of her favorite dress. It was a black off shoulder fitted dress with a slit in the right side of it.

Medyo malalim iyon ng ka unti but, it's fine she can still look smart wearing it. She wears a light make up but, she decided to go on a very dark lipstick.

Itinali niya naman ng mataas ang kanyang buhok to emphasize the dress she's weearing.

Pagkatapos ay tinernuhan niya iyon ng small diamond earrings at sinuot niya ang gold necklace na bigay sa kanya ni Rey noon na may initial nila na RR.

And she can't help but, smile. After a storm here comes the rainbow na matagal na parehas nilang hinihintay.

This time nothing can go wrong dahil lahat na yata ng heartache ay parehas na nilang pinag daan ang lahat. Pakiramdam nga niya ay tila panaginip lamang ang lahat ng ito.

"T.. This is only for.. assurance.." Tila na hihiya niyang sabi sa sarili habang iniligay sa kanyang clutch ang isang piraso ng condom.

"May be, I should bring two." Dagdag pa niya at bumalik muli sa drawer upang kunin ang isa pang condom. And she giggled evilly.

"H.. Hija.." Bungad ng kanyang Nana nang lumabas siya ng kanyang silid. Mukhang kakatok pa sana ito ngunit lumabas naman na siya.

"Yes, Nana?" She asked at her.

"Ah.. kasi.. Ahm.. Dapat ibibigay ko to sa'yo noon kaya lang hindi ko alam kung paano.." Balisa na sabi nito sa kanya at inabot ang isang sobre.

"What's this?" Tanong niya dito at nang buksan niya iyon that was the same Php 10 million cheque she gave to Rey 10 years ago in LA.

Hindi niya naman alam ang magiging reaksyon niya dahil sa pagka bigla.

"Noong maaksidente ka noon ay inabot niya ito sa akin at pinabibigay niya ito sa'yo. Pasensiya ka na at ngayon ko lang na ibigay." Sabi ng matanda sa kanya.

"Hindi ko kasi alam kung paano ko ito ibibigay sa'yo noon dahil labis ang hirap na pinagdadaanan mo hanggang sa umalis ka na nga.." Dagdag pa nito.

"Thank you, Nana.. I really chose the right man, don't you think?" Sincere niyang sabi dito at pagmamalaki.

"Oo Hija, mabuti siyang bata." Sang ayon nito sa kanya at niyakap siya.

"Nana, I think I have to go. He might be waiting for me na.." Paalam niya dito.

"Mag iingat ka at enjoy, Hija.." Bilin pa nito sa kanya.

"Nana nga pala, baka hindi ako maka uwi mamaya.. Pero baka lang naman.." Biro niya dito at kinindatan ito. Tumawa lang naman ang matanda.

-----

(Sweetheart, I think I might be late a little.) Malapit na siya sa restaurant nang mag text ito.

(It's fine.. Maaga pa naman..) Reply niya dito.

(I promise. I'll be there in 15min.) Pangako nito sa kanya.

(Okay, see you..) Reply niya dito.

Ngayon ay nasa tapat na siya ng restaurant nang ma pa kunot ang kanyang noo dahil brown out yata sa restaurant dahil wala man lang ak ilaw ilaw kahit ang parking lot niyon.

"Julius, this is the right place right?" Tanong niya dito.

"Opo, Seniorita dito nga po. Kahapon naman po ng dumaan ako maliwanag dito.." Paninigurado nito sa kanya.

"I see. Siguro sa loob na lang ako maghi- hintay. Thank you and bago ko makalimutan. You don't have to pick me up later dahil Rey will be drive me home.." Bilin niya dito.

"Copy, Seniorita. Enjoy your date po." Tukso pa nito bago umalis.

Nang bumaba siya ng kotse ay may ilang sandali siyang na pa titig sa restaurant bago tuluyang humakbang. That's when the whole place slowly turns on their lights one by one.

Starting from the parking and through her path way na kinatatayuan ngayon. Sumunod naman nag liwanag ang loob ng restaurant at narinig pa niya ang tila pagsisimula ng musika sa loob.

Hindi niya na pigilan lalo ang ma pa ngiti nang ma pansin ang mga bulaklak sa paligid ng restaurant na biglang umilaw. It's all glowing light tulips and it's very romantic.

So, being late was just an alibi to surprise her. She can't believe that this toad man really had this sweet side of him.

"Good evening, beautiful lady.." Naka ngiting salubong sa kanya ni Reidd sa path way at inabot sa kanya ang isang green roses. And he gave her a sign na dumiretso lang siya at ngumiti naman siya dito.

"This way my lady.." That was Lee at inabot sa kanya nito ang isa pang green roses. Kagaya ni Reidd ay sumenyas lang ito na dumiretso siya. Na guguluhan naman niya itong sinunod.

"Aren't you too pretty, tonight?" Xerces says in the next stop while smiling. Inabutan din siya nito ng green roses.

"Too pretty, Cess.." Naka ngiting segunda ni Shine sa tabi nito at inabot ang isng piraso ng green roses sa kanya.

"Can someone tell me, what's going on?" She asked at them and they just smiled at her. Piang pa tuloy niya naman ang paglalakad niya.

"I'm happy for you.." Sincere at naka ngiting sabi sa kanya ni Cameron nang bumungad ito sa pinto ng restaurant at kagaya ng iba ay inabot sa kanya ang isang stem ng green roses.

"Damon, your line please?" Cam hissed to Damon who's next to him.

"Thank you for coming back to his life.." Damon says sincerely and smiled at her. Hinawakan nito ang kamay niya at inabot ang isang stem ng green roses.

Bahagya siyang na gulat sa sinabi at ka guwapuhan nito.

"Jeez. Don't smile like that you almost give me a heart attack.." Na tatawa niyang biro dito at naki tawa lang naman ito. And she saw how Cameron's face get sour.

"I think I should go at baka may mag selos.." Biro niya kay Cameron at kinindatan ito. Pagkatapos ay nag tungo na siya sa loob ng restaurant.

The restaurant was so, dark at tanging mga kandila na may kasamang mga bulaklak lamang ang iyong makikita sa loob. There actually no table or chairs.

Is this the right way? But, where is he?

"My friend want me to give this to you.." Sincere na sabi ni Alex sa kanya sa hagdan pagakatapos iabot ang berdeng rosas sa kanya at ngumiti pa ang napagka guwapong lalaki sa kanya.

"Sandali! Sandali!" Tawag sa kanya ni Nichollo mula sa kanyang likuran bago siya tuluyan maka layo kay Alex.

"S.. Sorry, I was late.. H.. Here." Habol nito sa kanya matapos huminto sa pag takbo. He's still wearing his doctor's gown. Inabot nito sa kanya ang isa pang stem ng green roses.

"E.. Easy.. You don't have to run.." Saway niya dito habang hinihingal pa din ito.

"You idiot! How can you be late in this kind of matter?" Narinig niyang sermon ni Vash sa kanya sa mula sa second floor ng restaurant.

"Vash, this was supposed to be a surprise. Look, she already heard us.." Reklamo ni Ten dito at hindi niya na pigilan ang matawa dahil sa mga ito.

"I just finished a critical surgery, moron!" Ganting balik nito dito at tumingala pa ito.

"Sorry, Isabelle. By the way, you look very lovely tonight.." Bawi ni Nichollo sa kanya at ngumiti ito ng pagka tamis tamis.

"Not bad. Apology granted." Hindi niya mapigilan na matawa na lang sa sinabi nito at naki tawa na din ito.

Minabuti niya naman na umakyat na ng hagdan dahil marahil doon sa second floor ito nag hihintay.

"I already came this far. Can you give me a hint?" Naka ngiti niyang sabi kay Vash at Ten. Ngumiti lang naman ang dalawa sa kanya at inabot ang tig isang green roses sa kanya.

"Sorry, gorgeous but that's not possible." That was Ten.

"Yup, he's right. So, why don't you see for yourself?" Sabi ni Vash at pinag bukas siya nito ng pinto pa tungo kay REy.

"Thanks.." iyon na lamang ang na sabi niya sa mga ito at pumasok na sa pinto.

Hindi niya naman mapigilan ang ma pa singhap ng makarating sa rooftop ng 2nd floor dahil puno lamang naman iyon ng mga bulaklak at maliliit na dangling bulb.

There are four large tables for all of them to fit to ngunit ang naka agaw ng atensyon niya ay ang lalaking naka tayo sa platform. It was Rey looking very handsome in his tuxedo at tila ito kinakabahan.

The platform are full of flowers too and it looks very beautiful in its lights. Doon niya lang na pansin ang mga kandila na tila nagsa sabi na doon ang tamang daan pa tungo dito. And she excitedly walks to him.

"Hi, handsome.. What's with this all surprise? You said you're gonna be late tonight." She asked at him after she give him a kiss to his cheeks.

"D.. Did you like it?" He nervously asked her.

"Of corse. It's very romantic. But, isn't too much for me?" She asked at him. Hinapit naman siya nito bago ito nag salita.

"There's no too much pagdating sa'yo.." Sincere nitong sabi sa kanya while looking into her eyes.

"I really missed this sweet side of you.." Yakap niya dito.

"Y.. You look nervous. Is there a problem?" Tanong niya dito nang tila nanginginig ito.

"N.. No, everything's normal.." He nervously answered.

"Huh?" Nagtataka niyang tanong dahil he sounded really weird.

—— 5 hours Ago

"Ten, how did you propose to Heather?" Bungad niya kay Ten matapos nitong sagutin ang kabilang linya.

(H.. Huh?) Na samid naman na bulalas nito.

"I'm asking you how did you propose to Heather?" Ulit niya dito.

(Ha- ha. Idiot, did you forget that she's the one who proposed to me?) Na tatawang pagpapaalala nito sa kanya.

"Oo nga pala.." Buntong hininga niyang sabi dito ng maalala iyon.

(Why are you asking?) He asked at him.

"I want to propose to Rence tonight.." Deklara niya dito.

(Wh.. What?! T.. That fast? Hindi ba ka lalabas lang niya ng ospital kanina?) Gulat na tanong nito.

"Said of the man who will rushes his wedding for only two weeks?" Balik niya dito na ikina tahimik nito.

(Ehem.. Ehem.. I can lend you my new restaurant. It will open next month so, you can use it first.. I will ask my team to make it romantic..) Bawi nito sa kanya.

"Really? Thank you, Pare.." Pagpapasalamat niya dito.

(Thank me aftet she said yes..) Biro nito sa kanya at binaba na ang linya. And the next step would be ay ang mga ka sabwat niya. So, he sent them an email one by one saying..

Dear Chaebols,

It was rare for me to email a every important personal matter to you but, please hear me out.

I wan— No, I will propose to Rence tonight in Ten- JJ's restaurant at 7.30pm so, lend me a hand.

Please come to the restaurant as early as possible especially to George who needs to cook for us again for the last time.

PS: I will not take a 'NO'.

And please bring a stem of one green roses.

FYI: If you will not come I'm gonna kill you.

Since 2005,

RR Woodman

That's what his letter says and everyone response at him. Especially, George who cursed him to death. He'll just take it as an acknowledgement.

——Time Check 6.30PM

He was still in the rest room looking at his reflection in the mirror. He wanted to look very perfect tonight.

Inilabas niya ang itim na maliit na jewerly box sa kanyang pantalon. It was 14.6 carat diamond ring na binili niya para dito and instead of white diamond he bought her a blue indigo diamond.

It represents new beginning, protection, care and strength. That are the qualities he seeks in their marriage so, it was very meaningful.

Plus the fact that she's a one hell unique woman which is beyond his imagination so, the rare color of this diamond really describes her.

Nag totoo ay an hirapan talaga siya humanap noon kaya sinadya pa niya iyon sa isang auction sa Japan.

"Rence Isabelle Legaspi, will you marry me?" He sweetly says while looking himself at the mirror. Na pa iling siya. It seems not right.

"Marry me, again.." Pracnice pa niya.

"Sweetheart, will you marry me?" This time he ask cutely.

"How about we get married?" Pa macho niyang try.

"Let's get married?" And that sounds not so, sure. Baka mamaya kapag ganoon ang pagkakatanong niya ay baka batukan lang siya nito.

"God. Paano ba ito? What should I say?" Na pa hilamos niyang tanong sa sarili.

"Hey, kanina ka pa diyan. Can I use the toilet? Malapit na sumabog ang pantog ko. Ihing ihi na ako.." Sunod sunod na katok sa kanya ni Vash.

"Jeez. Pare sa wakas.." Sabi nito ng buksan niya ang pinto.

"Why do you look like that?" Kunot noo nitong tanong ng tila hindi ma ipinta ang mukha niya.

"Big problem. I don't know what should I say.." Kinakabahan niyang sabi dito.

"Huh? What the hell? Are you having a cold feet? After all the troubles you've gave us?" Reklamo muli nito.

"It's not that.. I.. I just can't find the exact words to say and I'm really nervous Pare.." Paliwanag niya dito at pinag tawanan naman siya nito.

"Then, just think about this. It's been 10 years so ano pa tatagalin mo pa ba?" Prangka nitong tanong sa kanya at mabilis siyang umiling dito.

"Gano'n naman pala. You'll do good, Pare just be sincere and say the magic words.." Pagpapa lakas nito ng loob at ngumiti pa ito sa kanya bago tuluyang pumasok sa banyo.

——Present Time

"A.. Are you sure you're okay? Ang lamig ng kamay mo.." Nag aalala niyang tanong dito habang hawak hawak ang dalawang kamay nito.

"I'm j.. just nervous, Sweetheart.." He said at her.

"W.. Why are you nervous? M.. May hinihintay pa ba ta—

"N.. No, it's not that. It's because I want to tell you something.." He said at her and he looked straight to her eyes.

"Then, tell me.. You don't have to be that nervous.." Nag aalala niyang saway dito.

"Listen to me carefully, Rence.." Seryoso nitong sabi sa kanya.

"I l.. love the way you look straight to my eyes.. The way you grab my hand.. The way you smile.. The way you hug and kiss me.. I love everything about you.." He lovingly said to her. Na pa ngiti naman tuloy siya dito.

"And I want to woke up everyday na ikaw ang una kong nakikita.. Kung puwede nga lang.. I want to be with you 24 hours a day.." Dagdag pa nito sa kanya. Why is he saying all these?

"R.. Rey, w..what are you sa—" He cuts her before she can ask him.

"Marry me, again. This time it is for real and not just in paper. Please be my real wife and let me be your real husband too.." Deklara nito sa kanya.
