"We're getting married soon."
Kim and Xian proudly announced after their worship service.
Family and friends were all so happy for them.
Gerald went to Kim and hugged her tight while messing her hair.
Gerald: "Bunsooooy! Grabe ka uunahan mo pa ako magpakasal?"
Kim: "Aray naman Ge!"
He let go of her and hugged Xian.
Gerald: "Congrats bro. Pero bakit parang biglaan?"
Umakbay si Xian kay Kim.
Xian: "Ito kasi eh nagmamadali! Hahahaha!"
Kim: "Oy ang kapal mo ah. Kasi naman Ge, kailangan namin magpakasal para after ng boards fly na kami to Canada."
Gerald: "Ah. So when is the wedding?"
Xian: "Siguro a month after the boards."
Gerald: "Wow ang bilis ah. Kaya niyo?"
Xian: "Well you know naman si Kimmy. Magaling mag organize yan."
Kim: "Ge ha, ikaw ang best man namin."
Gerald: "Wow I'm honored."
Ganito ang eksenang naabutan ni Sarah. Galing kasi siya sa comfort room.
Gerald: "Sarah, you missed the big news."
Sarah: "Why? What happened?"
She turned to Kim and Xian.
Kim lifted her left hand and showed Sarah her finger.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Sarah.
Sarah: "You're not getting married, are you?"
Kim exclaimed
Kim: "I am!"
Sarah and Kim shrieked like little girls.
Sarah: "O my gosh! I'm happy for you."
Kim: "Well you should sing for us. Nabalitaan ko sa frontliners maganda daw boses mo. Sana ikaw ang kumanta for me habang naglalakad ako sa aisle. Please!!!"
Sarah: "Sure. No biggie."
Gerald: "O siya we better go ahead ha. Kasi na invite ako kina Sarah for lunch eh. Bye."

SA KOTSE NI GERALD...
Napansin niya na tulala si Sarah at nakangiti.
Nasa tapat sila ng isang park. He pulled over and squeezed her chin with his thumb and index finger.
Gerald: "Anong nginingiti-ngiti ng baby kong maganda?"
Lalong napangiti si Sarah.
Sarah: "Wala natutuwa kasi talaga ako sa weddings."
Gerald: "Ah.."
He nodded.
Gerald: "You dream of getting married someday, don't you?"
Sarah smiled sweetly.
Sarah: "It's every girl's dream, Ge.
She closed her eyes.
Sarah: "I actually have pictured it already in my mind."
Gerald: "Tell me about it."
He unconsciously brought his face close to hers.
Her eyes still closed.
Sarah: "It will be a beach wedding. I will be holding peach peonies. I will be singing while walking down the aisle."
Gerald: "And what song will you be singing?"
Sarah inhaled and started singing while keeping her eyes shut.
Sarah:
"Panalangin ko sa habang buhay,
Makapiling ka at makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko
At hindi papayag ang pusong ito na mawala ka sa'king piling mahal ko iyong dinggin..
At wala nang iba pang mas mahalaga
Sa tamis na dulot ng pag-ibig nating dalawa
Sana naman nakikinig ka
Kapag aking sinasabing minamahal kita..."
She opened her eyes and was surprised to see Gerald's face close to hers.
He gave her a smile.
Gerald: "You know what I wish?"
Sarah: "What?"
Gerald: "To be the lucky man waiting for you at the altar."
He took Sarah's right hand and kissed it.
Gerald: "You are my dream girl."
He then started drive again.
They kept on exchanging glances at each other on their way to Sarah's house.
