Now & Forever

Reconciliation

"Good morning" bati ni Matteo sa asawa nyang tulog pa. Hinalikan nya ito at binigyan ng mainit na yakap. Matteo was about to get out of his bed and Sarah clinged on him. Matteo always wakes up first. He likes to do his routines and then cook for breakfast.

"Just one more hour, please." napangiti nalang si Matteo ng makita nya ang mukhang anghel ni Sarah. Ang ganda parin ng mukha nya kahit tulog. Sarah is a very clingy wife. She always wants to cuddle with Matteo or just hold his hands. The weather outside was very bad. Umuulan kaya siguro masarap tulog ng asawa nya.

Pinagbigyan nya ito at bumalik sa kama para yakapin ulit ang asawa nya. Sa panahon ngayon masarap kapag may kayakap ka. Parang hinihili ni Matt ang asawa nya, hindi na kasi makatulog ulit kaya hinintay nalang nyang magising si Sarah. Habang akap-akap nila ang isa't-isa maraming narealize at naisip si Matteo.

Sobra syang blessed dahil magkasama sila ngayon ni Sarah at kasal na. Everyday is a blessing lalo na at nakikita nyang masaya ang asawa kahit mayroong conflict between them and sa family ni Sarah but he's still hopeful na one day magkaayos na talaga ang lahat. Gusto lang nyang makita ang asawa na masaya yun lang ang mahalaga sa kanya.

Hindi namalayan ni Matteo na gumising na pala si Sarah at akap-akap parin nila ang isa't- isa.

"Thank you, love." sabi niya.

Nagising si Matteo.

"Gising ka na pala."

"I'm sorry kung bigla kitang pinabalik dito. Ang sarap kasi ng weather tsaka ang masarao rin kapag may kayakap ka." sabay bungisngis ni Sarah.

"Tatangi ba ako sa asawa ko eh ang sarap kaya ng mga akap mo." Dinampian nya ito ng halik sa noo.

"Love."

"Hmmm yes."

"After this quarantine, I want to visit your mom and dad. Just want to talk and I hope this time maintindihan at mapatawad nila tayo. I've been thinking about it lately and maybe it's the right time already to talk to them personally." Matteo said.

Biglang kumuwala si Sarah sa yakap at napabuntong hininga sa sinabi ni Matt.

"You're right. Naisip ko narin yan."

"Ang hirap lang ng sitwasyon natin ngayon pero sana, I hope and pray na maging okay at mag heal na lahat. Makalimutan lahat ng masasamang salita o nangyari." Sarah added.

Sa lahat ng ito si Sarah kasi ang pinaka naapektohan. At alam ni Matteo na napakahirap sa part ni Sarah na gawin lahat yun pero he knows walang ginagawang masama si Sarah. Time heal all wounds. After all, its a healing process.

"And I just missed them so much. Yung pag-aalaga nila, yakap at ngiti nila sobrang nakakamiss." she was about to cry pero pinipigilan lang nya ito.

"I know, love. I know."

"And I will try everything just to make things okay. I promise. I will never give up." Matteo hugged Sarah tight. He knows Sarah is a strong woman but she has a soft spot.

Days have passed and the couple still do basic things that couples do like cooking, doing laundries and folding them, washing the dishes, feeding the dogs and cleaning the house. They love the idea that they're very hands on sa mga ganitong bagay. They love doing household chores and just spending time together made the bond stronger.
