CHAPTER 40

Continuation

-

Sumunod na din saakin sina Mom at Dad at yung iba pang kasali. Bestman, Groomsman, kasama ang bridesmaid, flower girls, ring bearers at marami pang iba. Ramdam ko ang pagiging emosyonal nina mommy at daddy (mga magulang ni barbs) sa paglalakad. Siyempre naiintindihan ko naman ang nararamdaman nila. Ipagkakatiwala nila saakin ang anak nila at hahayaang mamuhay ng malayo sa kanila. Sa kabilang banda, ay nakikita ko si barbs, walking down the aisle at emosyonal na naglalakad. Ako naman ay parang huminto ang pagikot ng mundo ko. Ang makita si barbs na nakasuot ng damit pangkasal, papalapit ng papalapit saakin habang may hawak hawak na bulaklak. Sobrang ganda at bumagay sakanya ang suot niyang iyon. Nakatulala ako na parang nakakita ng multo.

Nang makarating sila sa kinaroroonan ko ay nagmano ako sa mga magulang niya humalik ako kay mommy(mommy ni barbs) at yumakap ako kay Daddy(daddy ni barbs) "HUWAG MONG PAPABAYAAN YANG PRENSESA NAMIN HA?" Sambit ni daddy at tinapik tapik pa ang balikat ko "INGATAN MO YAN HA?" mommy stated. I smiled and answered them, "YES MOM. YES DAD. DI KO PO PAPABAYAAN SI BARBS" dumiretso na din kami sa altar at nakinig sa pari.

"DEAR BELOVED, YOU ARE HERE TODAY TO SEAL YOUR LOVE WITH AN ETERNAL BOND BEFORE THE CHURCH. I ASSURE YOU OF THE PRAYERS OF OUR COMMUNITY THAT GOD MAY POUR HIS ABUNDANT BLESSING ON YOUR LOVE AND HELP YOU TO CARRY OUT THE DUTIES OF THE MARRIED STATE" sambit ng pari saamin

"AND YOU, DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTER MAY I ASK YOU TO HELP THEM WITH YOUR PRAYERS AND ACCEPT THEM AS A NEW COUPLE IN OUR CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY" pahabol na sambit niya para sa mga tao.

at nagsimula na nga ang marraige sacrament ceremony

"MAY I ASK YOU NOW TO ANSWER TRUTHFULLY THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS."

Sambit ng pari saamin.

"BARBARA, DID YOU CAME HERE OF YOUR OWN FREE WILL TO BIND YOURSELF FOREVER IN THE LOVE AND SERVICE OF YOUR HUSBAND?" tanong ng pari at sinagot ko naman "YES FATHER. HINDI AKO MAGSASAWANG MAGING CLOWN SA MGA ORAS NA MAINIT ANG ULO NIYA, ANG GIGISING SAKANYA AT MAGSISIMULA NG NGITI NA MAGPAPABUO NG ARAW NIYA. ANG MAGSASABI NG MGA KATAGANG "KAYA NATIN TO, AT NANDITO LANG AKO", ANG HAHAWAK NG MAHIGPIT SA KAMAY NIYA KAPAG DI NA NIYA KAYA AT PATULOY NA PUPUNAN ANG PAGMAMAHAL NA IBINIBIGAY NIYA." sagot ni barbs

"DERRICK, DID YOU COME HERE OF YOUR OWN FREE WILL TO BIND YOURSELF FOREVER IN THE LOVE AND SERVICE OF YOUR WIFE?"

"YES FATHER, IT WILL BE MY HONOR TO BE HER HUSBAND. THE MAN WHO WILL CHERISH AND LOVE HER FOR A LIFETIME, THE MAN WHO WILL BE PATIENT AND ALWAYS UNDERSTANDS HER MISTAKES, THE MAN WHO WILL INCOURAGE HER TO FIGHT FOR STRUGGLES, HER SHIELD FOR THE TRAGEDY AND I JUST WANT TO SAY, THAT ITS NOT ALL ABOUT ME, ITS ABOUT US." sagot ko sa pari.

"ARE YOU BOTH READY TO RAISE AS GOOD CHRISTIANS THE CHILDREN WHOM GOD WILL GIVE YOU?" sambit ni father.

"YES FATHER" ang sabay naming sagot ni barbs.

"YES FATHER, I DO" Sagot naman nito

"NOW GIVE THESE RINGS TO ONE ANOTHER AND SAY AFTER ME:"

nilagay ko ang singsing sa daliri ni barbs at sinambit ang "BARBARA FORTEZ, WEAR THIS RING AS A SIGN OF MY LOVE AND LOYALTY. IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER AND OF THE SON AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT."
