The Dangerous Princess: The Red-Eyed Lady

EPILOGUE

Fiona's POV

My life is a blast. My journey was like a roller coaster ride. My identity was like a very rare flower that I needed to find just to know what it really looked like.

My decisions affected many people. There were many revelations. There were many challenges. There were ups and down.

But the best thing here is when I met new friends. New family.

I know it was a very hard journey for me— for us. But the experiences we shared was priceless. The real joy is with them. My real happiness is what we have right now.

8 months had passed and here I am right now, walking towards the altar. Walking to reach the hand of my future husband. Wearing a long white gown with a bouquet of flowers in my hands and this large tummy that has been the haven of my child, I can now proudly say, "I am getting married."

After all that we've gone through, finally, we are here. Gathered to witness the union of Ash and I.

With me was Mama Althea who went down from Heaven just to witness her daughter's wedding. I looked at my friends, Sophia, Brieve, Nica, Ace and Alvin who was looking back at me, teary eyed.

Brieve is a month pregnant. She said that she was jealous of what I have right now in my tummy so they decided to make one. Matinik din 'tong si Ace e.

Al Vincent and Veronica is staying stronger. Ayaw muna nilang magkaanak dahil they want to enjoy their time together first.

While Sophia is holding her 1 month old baby. Siya pala ay naunang nabuntis kesa sa akin. Silang dalawa lamang ni Blake ang nakakaalam. They didn't told us because they thought that it was a bad timing. May mga problema pa no'n at maraming hadlang. Nangungulila pa rin kami sa presensya ni Blake, especially Sophia but we're trying to move on. We are moving on.

Pagkarating ko sa harap ni Ash na ngayo'y abot langit ang ngiti ay kinuha niya ako from my mother's arms.

"Goodluck, young lady," sabi ni mama sa akin at hinalikan ako sa pisngi.

Humarap siya kay Ash.

"Alagaan mo siya. Be a responsible husband and soon to be a father," bilin niya kay Ash at niyakap siya.

Ngumiti si Ash at tumango. "I will, tita," sabi niya.

"It's mama. You're my son-in-law after the wedding," aniya.

Ngumiti siya. "Of course, Ma."

Tumango si mama at ngumiti bago pumunta sa upuan niya.

Pumunta na kami sa harapan ng altar. Nakangiti siya sa akin habang ako ay nakatingin sa harapan.

Nagsimula na ang seremonya ngunit hindi pa rin inaalis ni Ash ang tingin niya sa akin. Naiilang na ako kaya nilingon ko siya. He's smiling like crazy.

"Stop staring and listen to the priest," sabi ko at nilingon ulit si father.

"You're gorgeous," bulong niya bigla na kinagulat ko.

Namula ang mga pisngi ko at umiling.

"Y-You also did slay," komento ko at umiwas ng tingin.

"Ehem."

Napalingon kaming dalawa kay father nang tumikhim ito.

"Marriage vows," sabi niya.

Tumango ako sa kaniya, at medyo nahiya pa dahil nahuli niya kaming nagbubulungan. Ang harot naman kasi ni Ash.

Humarap ako kay Ash, kinuha niya ang singsing at inabot ang isa kong kamay.
