so after everything that has been said and done... we're here. the sun and the moon. the final eclipse.

i stood here in front of the altar waiting for the love of my life... i can't help but smile when the door opened revealing my beautiful bride... as she made every step my heart pounded.

"anak, punasan mo yang laway mo" biro ni daddy

"ricardo! tigilan mo na nga si rj" saway naman ni mommy, "anak, isara mo na lang yang bibig mo baka pasukin ng langaw" sabay tawa ni mommy

grabe kayo sa akin. ang ganda ng mapapangasawa ko. i said, still mesmerized by her beauty

"excited na nga kami ni meann sa mga maganda at gwapong magiging apo namin" bulong ni mommy

"anak, galingan mo ha! siguraduhin mo kambal agad!" buyo pa ni daddy

"psst... daddy tumigil ka na, nandyan na ang mamanugangin natin" saway ni mommy

before she approached us, she gave nanay and tatay a hug. then she kissed the hand of my parents as i did the same to hers. finally, tatay brought her hand to me and held my shoulder

"anak, ipinagkakatiwala na namin ng nanay ang bunso namin sayo. yung mga apo ha" then tatay hugged me

hindi ko maipaliwanag ang saya ko ng mga panahong iyon. niyakap ko ang tatay at nanay

nay, tay, maraming salamat po.

"wag nyo kaming paiiyakin sa mga wedding vows nyo ha!" paalala ng nanay

i held nico's hand and kissed her forehead then led her to the altar

this is it love

i love you jay

i love you

we made our way to the altar. the ceremony was flawless, and now, it's the time for our vows

nicomaine. i met you sometime two years ago, ikaw yung proxy.  everyone laughed  i was waiting for my girlfriend tapos ikaw ang pinadala nya.

"you're welcome rj!" sigaw ni alex with a thumbs up

that moment when we ordered double vodka lime soda, i knew i had to disprove the saying of love at first sight because right then and there i knew something is different about you, about us. something good i must say. clearly, ang hirap pala kasi mula nung gabing yun na kumain ka ng french fries sa kotse ko, alam ko kelangan ko ng magfranchise ng mcdo

everyone laughed.

"tatlo french fries! tatlo agad!" sigaw naman ni je at mas lalong lumakas ang tawanan

hindi ko na siguro maisip kung paano pa kita mamahalin ng mas higit pa sa ngayon maliban sa kahapon at nung mga nagdaan pang kahapon at mga nakalipas pang kahapon. i've never felt this happy and complete knowing that tomorrow and the days after tomorrow, akin ka na. love, i will not promise you anything, but i will make sure na habang-buhay kong papatunayan sayo na tama ang desisyon mong tumakas kasama ko. mahal na mahal kita french fries...

then i moved forward to kiss your forehead.

eh ano pang isasagot ko dun? nakakainis ka talaga! uwian na po nanalo na ako!

nagtawanan muli ang lahat

bago yung vow ko, quick question muna.

go ahead

do you still remember the first time we kissed?

easy. our failed first year anniversary dinner. when you told me you're falling for me to be exact. he answered with confidence

wrong!

everybody gasped. i even saw some accussing looks.

teka. teka lang love, i know i'm inlove with you long before that night, but i never took advantage of you. kahit na tulog ka i swear!  i defended myself

she smiled. i know. i glanced at him and saw confusion written all over his face, he really does not know. but that does not mean i did not... then i smirked at him

teka, sandali i'm confused. you what, exactly?

ako nga kasi. i'm the one who took advantage of you paglilinaw ko

"ang bagal mo daw kasi brad!" kantiyaw ni kuya dean, sabay tawanan ang lahat

remember when you got drunk and jerome brought you to my house?

when i woke up with two advils on your bedside table?

that's it. i kissed you. that's also the first time i admitted i love you.

sandali love, bakit di ko matandaan?

you had way too many drinks i guess. ok lang. the important thing is, you kissed me back.

"boss we're so proud of you!!!" sigaw ni nuel

i was not able to stop myself, i pulled you close to me and gave you a sly smile

i think we've established that i'm a businessman, love

and?

i play it fair. and since you admitted taking advantage of me, prepare yourself for payback.

"bilisan na ang wedding vow oh babawi pa yung boss namin!" sigaw ni leo then our families cheered

ok na eto na. mga impatient na bisita. ahem. where was i? oh yeah my vow... jay? luwagan mo muna yung yakap.

ok na yan. naninigurado lang  then i wiggled my brows

you smiled and looked at me intently.

i am a writer. i write different kinds of stories. so technically i'm good at words. most of the time i know what to say and how how to say it... but now i find myself lost for something i'm good at. you always render me speechless, wala akong masabi. pero hindi ko man kayang isulat at sabihin ang nararamdaman ko para sayo, buong buhay kong ipapakita sayo kung gaano kita kamahal. i love you, jay. and i'll spend my lifetime showing you how much i do.

sa totoo lang, if father jeff did not clear his throat i would've lounge myself to her and kiss her senseless. buti na lang nakapagpigil pa ako.

so after our exchange of i do's and rings, father jeff announced the much awaited you may now kiss the bride part.

i slowly lifted her veil and gazed at her lovingly. i pulled her close to me and whispered, i love you and after she answered i love you i slowly leaned to kiss her. we we're kind of lost on the kiss that we forgot where we are. a few moments passed i felt a tap on my shoulder

"anak nasa simbahan pa lang tayo. mamaya nyo na ideretso." my dad whispered

"ok na guys picture na! bilisan na natin at mukhang hindi na makahintay ang groom!" my mom shouted

we both blushed

love? halata ba? i whispered

na atat ka lang? uhhmm.... oo

sorry...

wag kang mag-alala.  she moved to my ear ako din

that made me go overboard. kingina pwede bang takasan na namin ang reception? and with hushed tones while everyone took their places for the pictures

love, magbibihis ka pa di ba?

yeah...

gusto mo ba ako na magtanggal ng wedding dress mo?

hmm... basta wag mo munang guguluhin yung buhok ko ha mapapagalitan tayo ni holly

and after that ladies and gentlemen, once again the moon and the sun made another escape from the universe.

^^^^^^^

"o holly, nasan na ba sila rj at maine?" tanong ni nanay

"ah... uhhmmm... magbibihis po kasi si maine, hinihintay po siguro ni rj..??" nag-aalinlangang sagot ng wedding organizer

"ahhh! nagbibihis!" sabay tingin ng makahulugan ng nanay ni maine sa mommy ni rj

"aaahhh! ok... nagbibihis..." ngiti naman ng mommy ni rj   "oh eh balae, halika na doon at mukhang matatagalan ang pagbibihis ng bride" 

"sinabi ko naman kasi sayo pigilan mo muna yang boss mo! reception na lang oh! hindi pa ba naman makahintay! naku ang hirap pa naman gawin nung buhok ni maine" pagalit nito sa nobyo

"relax lang hon, bawal ma-stress" and then leo winked at his girlfriend

"naku balae, mukhang mapapabilis ang pagiging lola natin, halika na at ibalita natin kila teddy at ric" at nagmamadaling umalis ang mommy ni rj at nanay ni maine

"oh sabi ko naman sayo. yan ngang mga nanay at tatay nila ang mas hindi makahintay eh. hayaan mo na hon, sure naman ako maganda pa rin ang bride pagkatapos nilang MAGBIHIS" sabay ngisi ni leo sa nobya

"ewan ko nga sa inyo! ang haharot!" bulong muli ni holly "on second thought, tama ka. sige itext mo si rj"

^^^^^^

uhhmmm... jay... oh god... mmmhhhh...

they were in the middle of CHANGING HER OUTFIT for the reception when his phone started buzzing

jaayy... uuhhmmm.... i— uhhh— hhmmm.. you... i think you should answer that she managed to say while she whimpered in ecstacy with the pleasure he is giving her, CHANGING HER DRESS

mmmppphhhh... don't mind that... i'm busy... while he continued his ministrations

it—uuhhh— uhmmm... it— ohhh god, jay... it must be important

love there's nothing more important to me right now than you...

i know love... ohhh... pero  uuhhmmm... tignan mo muna... hhmmmm... uuhhmmmm... ba- uhhmm baka hinahanap na nila tayo

he grunted but did what he was told... by HIS WIFE.. .

fine... but this better be a good excuse to disturb me

she chuckled at her husband's protests, yes HER HUSBAND... impatient talaga, she thought

he grabbed his phone from the pocket of his trousers

hinahanap na ba nila tayo?

upon seeing the message sent by leo, he smirked and threw his phone like it does not have any value then kissed her senseless

uhhhmmmm.... oohhh... hhhmmmm... jaaayyy.... ano... uuhhhmmmm... what—- ooohhhhh.... wait—- uuhhmmm what did they say

bihisan daw kita....
