Celestine's P.O.V

"You look so good in that wedding dress..." sabi ni Emma.

"Thanks! Ikaw ang bride, you look really really pretty." I answered.

Bigla na lamang akong niyakap ni Emma.

"Thank you for choosing this wedding gown for me... You really know my type in clothes." sabi ko.

"And also, thank you because this is the wedding that I've expected!" she says at umakyat sa sofa, at tinaas ang kanyang mga kamay.

"Syempre, ako pa." pagbibiro ko.

"Btw, binigay ko sa kaibigan ni Nick ng dalawang isang invitataion." sabi ni Emma.

Huh?

"Eh sino bang kaibigan?" pagtatanong ko.

"Si Natalie." sagot niya.

"Syempre, kahit si Kurt, di rin nawawalan ng pag-asa kasi naniniwala siya na, dadating si Nicholas." sabi niya.

I smiled.

"Para na rin sayo yun, Celestine." she said and she also smiled.

I can feel tears in my eyes.

Nicholas, If only you would open your eyes, and see that everyone's waiting for you.

Dahil hindi ako nawalan ng pag-asa.

"Wag kang umiyak, masisira yang make-up mo." sabi niya.

"Nakakainis ka, Nakakagigil." pagbibiro ko habang nagpupunas ng luha.

"Syempre mabait ako." tanong niya.

Napatingin ako sa kanya.

"Oops, wag kang hindi magsasang-ayon, mabait ako. I'm the princess of this day." sabi niya.

"Oo na." I said and I laughed.

"Okay, shall we go my bride?" tanong ko.

"Wahhh ang gwapo mo! Ikaw nalang yata groom ko eh." pagbibiro ni Emma at pinatong ang kanyang braso sa aking braso.

"Wag ka nga, gugulpihin ako Kurt. Tara na." I said and we laughed.

×××

Makaraan ng ilang oras ay nakarating na rin kami sa simbahan.

Maririninig ang paghahanda ng tao, its because the bride is already here.

"Okay, mga flower girls!! pila na! daliii!" sabi ni Mrs. De los Reyes.

Sumunod ng ang mga abay, na pumila.

I can hear Emma's breathing.

"Hey, are you okay?" I asked.

"Oo naman, Its just that, I'm having mixed emotions like I'm just really nervous because I can't believe it na ikakasal na ko."

"And of course, I'm super happy because, the day arrived. The day of my marriage." she said.

"We will all miss you Celestine. Its probably hard for you because hindi na tayo magkikita ng ganon kadalas, kasi were both pretty busy, but you always, got my support, my support for the both of you." I said.

"Thank you really, Celestine." She said and we hugged together.

Nung lumabas na ko sa sasakyan, I can still see her eyes are just nervous.

Pumasok na rin ako agad sa loob to have a seat.

×××

And then, the doors were opening.

I can hear the soft playing of the piano, and the cute flower girls whose throwing their flowers beautifully.

And after that, the ring bearer, I think its the little brother of Kurt. Cute.

At sumunod naman ang mga abay.

Biglang sumagi sa isip ko nanaman si Nicholas.

Kung sana, nandito ka lang, gusto ko talagang mag-abay sa kasal nina Kurt.

Pero syempre, kahit gustong-gusto ko, hindi ko itinuloy, kasi wala ka naman.

And then, Emma and her father were walking down the aisle.

I can see both of them were just looking at each other, Kurt and Emma.

Kurt's smile is really wide, but infairness, Ang gwapo talaga ni Kurt ngayon.

Minutes passed, at sa wakas, its time to say vows.

"Emma, you know, ever since I met you, I really feel you're glowing eyes, kahit nung mga panahon na yun ay medyo hindi pa tayo nagpapansinan."

"Then, akala ko, kahit makailan na akong ligaw, kahit paulit-ulit, Its the best day to be remembered, 02-08-14, nung araw na sinagot mo ko, You know, it was never a mistake, never an accident that you'll be the one. "

"You are the one, the love of my life, my wife. I will strive just for you and our future children. I will be loyal to you, I will cherish, laugh, cry or even be angry with you. But always remember, that I'll always love you. Be at your side always, my wife."

Wow, that's really so beautiful. Napapaiyak ako. Kitang-kita naman na naiiyak na ang lahat. Sobra ang pagiiyak ng papa ni Celestine.

And of the bride, Emma, is crying too.

"Kurt, you know, I've never really felt love when I first met you." she says at nagtawanan ang lahat.

Kahit kailan talaga Emma.

"But since nung nangligaw ka sa akin, I was just taking some time, some time to think If you're the one, Then I noticed lahat ng hirap mo, sabi nga nila wag mo nang maniwala kapag sa binatang nanliligaw pa. But then I do know that," you can hear the crack in her voice.

"That finally, I've met someone like you. Someone like you that accept me for who I am."

She's starting to cry.

"And that someone is you, Kurt. My husband. To strive hard to take care of our future children, I will be loyal to you, Even in the hardest times, I'll always remember, that I'm still living in this world just for you, you are always the greatest thing in my life, my husband."

Woah, so beautiful, Its like I can feel both of their love, love whose blossoming beautifully.

"And you may kiss the bride." the pastor says.

Then they kissed.

Sayang, kahit pinicturan ko, di na rin naman lokohan kasi kasal na sila, not like ginawa nilang wallpaper yung kissing scene namin.

Namin.

After that we arrived at the cater, Wow, they're wedding is really an excitement!

After magkainan, Where in weddings, ay sasayaw ang bagong kasal, let's just say lahat.

And I happened to be the singer, Emma picked me.

Tell me
Tell me that you want me
And I’ll be your completely 
For better or for worse

Kitang-kita na masayang-masaya ang lahat sa pagsasayaw nina Kurt at Emma, and also dancing with their partners.

Emma's head is on Kurt's chest and they're swaying softly, that's so cute you guys.

‘Cause you make my heart feel like it’s summer
When the rain is pouring down
You make my whole world feel so right when it’s wrong
That’s why I know you are the one
That’s how I know you are the one

If only, I badly wanna dance too, but then.

I can't.

When we are together you make me feel
Like my mind is free
And my dreams are reachable, 

You know I never ever believed in love,
I believed one day that
you would come along and

free me

Napatingin ako sa door, and I'm in suddenly in super shock.

I saw Nicholas.

Is it him? I keep on blinking my eyes.

But then, magkamukha sila, only that guy looks handsome though.

But then, napatingin siya sa akin and I saw in his eyes that,

'Woah. You're pretty everyday'

Its him.

Yes siya nga, Oh, how badly I want to hug him.

That's how I know you are the one

Nung natapos ko na yung song, All of the people were happy to the newly wed.

And I can see Nicholas is going away.

What? Nagmadali akong bumaba sa stage at sinundan siya.

Not this time Nick, antagal kitang hinintay tas magpapakita sa akin ng saglit na panahon lamang?!

And all I can know is nagpunta siya sa garden.

"I know you're following me." His voice is now deep than before.

"Nick?" my voice stutters.

"You really look pretty Celestine, prettier than before."

"The girl that I fell in love with, and it never change,"

"I still love you."

I'm crying right now litterally.

"I'm here to explain Celestine, I'm sorry."

"After the graduation, Umalis ako kaagad kasi,"

"Kasi gusto na ni papa na lumipat kami ng Canada."

×××

*flashback*

Nicholas's P.O.V

"Ma, bakit ba agad tayo umuwi, magcecelebrate pa kami ng mga kaibigan ko eh." I said.

"Pupunta tayong Canada, Napagdesisyunan namin ng papa mo." sabi ni mama.

Nalaman ko na nagkabalikan na sina mama at papa, well, simula nung nag 1st year high school ako, di pa sila legal na hiwalay, kundi tuluyan ng lumipat si papa sa Canada.

"Ma, bakit kailangan tayong lahat? Pwede ba dito nalang ako sa Pilipinas?" pagsasagot ko.

Hindi pwede na pumunta ako ng ibang bansa, I can't leave her,

I can't leave you Celestine.

Ngunit hindi rin natupad ang sinabi ko at tuluyang bumiyahe papuntang Canada.

Napromote pala si papa sa trabaho at nagkaroon ng malaking bahay at kotse.

"Nagbago na si papa mo Nicholas."

Oo, tama si mama, nagbago na nga si papa naging mabait siya, wise and productive, at nagbobonding kasama kaming pamilya niya.

At hanggang sa Canada, ay nagkaroon ako ng trabaho bilang isang maging architect.

*end of flashback*

Celestine's P.O.V

"Hindi na ko nagpaalam, hindi ko hahayaan na maging ganon na lamang, na maging hindi masaya ang inyong pagcelebra-"

Naputol ang sinabi niya dahil niyakap ko siya.

"I've waited for this moment Nick, antagal kong hinintay ikaw." I sobbed.

"I'm sorry Celestine, akala ko kinalimutan mo na ko, I'm really sorry. I love you so much." Nicholas answered.

"I love you too." I answerwed.

"Nicholas!!!" maririnig mo ang pagsigaw ng isang boses

Ngunit biglang pagkalingon ni Nick,

Ay agad siyang nasunggaban ng suntok.

Suntok ni Emma.

"Bakit ngayon lang dumating? wahhh di mo ba alam na sobrang depressed si Celestine!" pagsisigaw ni Emma.

"Yan sige, suntukin mo pa." maririnig ang pagbulong ni Kurt.

"Aray, kakarating ko lang ganito ang madadatnan ko." sabi ni Nick sabay hawak sa pisngi.

"May dala akong mga regalo para sa inyo, Hindi na nakapunta si Natalie kasi busy siya pero may dala rin siyang regalo,"

"Nandoon sa kotse ko."

Biglang lumaki ang mga mata naming lahat.

"Wow, may kotse ka na pala ah." puri ni Emma.

"Hayaan mo nga love, may kotse rin tayo." sabi naman ni Kurt.

"Bat di nalang kaya tayo bumalik muna Emma, baka hinahanap kayo doon." sabi ko.

×××

Nagcongratulate si Nick kina Kurt at Emma at binigay ang mga regalo.

Eh ako naman regalo ko sa kanila ay Orasan.

"Bakit orasan? akala ko naman something special." pagtatanong ni Emma.

"Eh kasi everytime na magaaway kayo, wag niyong kalimutan na tumingin sa orasan na iyan, dahil marerealize niyo na nagsasayang lang kayo ng panahon sa pagsisigawan, para magbati kayo agad." sabi ko.

"Aww.." parehas na sabi ni Kurt at Emma.

Pero masayang-masaya talaga ako kina Emma and their wedding, Its a day to be remembered.

Its also a day to be remembered because,

You came back.
