"I still cannot believe you are getting married!" I said almost crying.
"I know. It was like yesterday I was only a young girl and now I'm finally getting married!"
"I'm happy for you, !" I said hugging her.
"Thank you!" she said while a tear fall from her eye.
I loosed from the hug and looked at her and wiped the tear saying, "Don't cry you're gonna ruin your make-up!"
She chuckled and said, "Yeah I don't wanna look ugly on my wedding day!"
I looked at the clock and said, "It's time! Are you ready?"
She looked at herself one last look in the mirror then took a deep breath and said, "I am!"
I smiled to her and I lifted the dress from behind her so she will trip or step on her wedding gown while walking towards the bridal car. I sat beside her holding her cold hand.
I looked at her and saw she was nervous so I asked her, "Nervous?"
"A little!" she replied trying to calm herself down.
"It'll be okay. Relax!"
"I'm trying!" she replied.
I held her hand tightly and said, "Everything's gonna be fine!"
She smiled to me and said, "Thanks for everything !"
"You're welcome!" I said and I sat there still holding 's cold hand while waiting for us to arrive at the church.
I smiled to her, held her hand, and said, "Congratulations! You two are destined to be together.
Then I went out of the car and joined the rest of my friends. Then the wedding coordinator arranged us for the entourage. I stood beside . By the way, he is the best man and he looks so hot in his tuxedo. Finally, we walked together down the aisle. I saw everyone staring at us while walking. Then finally, I reached my seat and I stood beside . Then finally, the bride was about to walk the aisle. I saw smiling and crying at the same time with her parents beside her. She looks beautiful in her wedding gown. As I saw her walk that aisle, I wish I too was in my wedding gown walking down that aisle towards .

Then I looked at . He looked back at me and smiled. Then I held his hand.
Then it's 's turn. Then the priest said, "?" I can see is still nervous. She said while slipping the ring into 's finger, "Simon, wear this ring as a sign of my love and loyalty to you, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."
I looked at again and smiled. He still is holding my hand.
Then the priest continued with the ceremony.
The priest asked , "Do you take , to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to hold, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"
looked at her, held her hand and said smiling, "I do!" and smiled back.
This time, the priest asked , "Do you take , to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love and to hold, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"
looked at him, and smiled saying, "I do!" and smiled to her.
The priest continued, "With the power vested in me by the God, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride!"
Then they kissed. Then the crowd stood up and clapped. I can see and are very overjoyed. I'm so happy for her. Now I wish will propose to me and marry me soon! I so wanted to wear a gown and walk down that aisle. Everyone inside the church was very happy.
She smiled to me and said, "Thank you!"
Then I walked to and said, "Congratulations! Take good care of her!"
"I will!" and he hugged me then smiled.
Then I headed to my table. As I walk, was behind me. He whispered, "Hi beautiful!" I looked back and saw behind me. I said to him, "Hello there!"
We were about to kiss but then and the rest interrupted us shouting, "Over here!"
"Your tummy is now big! When is it due?" I asked .
"Four months and I can't wait!" replied.
"Congratulations ! You're gonna be a dad after four months!" I said excitedly to . Everyone in the table looked at me.
"Thank you !" said to me. Then he whispered something to .
I can see they were talking about something serious and they kept looking at me.
"So, has proposed to you?" asked me.
"No he hasn't!" I answered.
"What if he proposed to you will you accept it?" asked me.
"Of course!" I replied. I saw both of their faces frowned.
"So, are you guys a couple?" I asked them changing the topic.
"No. But we are still dating!" answered.
"I'm happy for you ! I really am!" I said smiling at her.
"Thanks!" she replied and smiled to me.
"Take care of her !" I said to him.
"I will!" said and bowed his head.
Then there was awkward silence among us three.
Next thing I know I heard noises among the crowd. They were patting the glasses with using utensils meaning, 'kiss'. I smiled and looked at the wedded couple and they kissed. I daydreamed that me and were in their shoes. I came back to my senses when everyone clapped.
It is dark and cold when we came out from the reception area. I was cold and he gave me his coat saying, "Here you can have mine!"
"Thanks!" I said and smiled.
"Let's go!" he said and he drove me of to a house I'm not aware of.
"Where were we and what are we doing here?" I asked curiously.
"I'll introduce you to my mom!" he said and I believed him.
"It's big! Is this her house? Does she live her alone?" I asked.
"No! She has a new husband and a son!" he said.
"Are they inside? Looks like no one's there!" I said.
"Sure they are! Come on we don't want them to keep waiting!"
"Okay." got out of the car and walked towards mine. He opened the car door for me and reached out his hand saying, "Here we go my queen!" and he smiled and helped me got out.
"Thanks," I said and smiled to him. My heart skipped a bit when I looked at the house again. I cannot believe he brought me here in his mom's house and introduce me to her. Maybe he's gonna propose to me later but first he wants me to talk to his mom. Is that what he was planning to do? I so wanted to get this over with. I'm meeting his mom for the first time. I wonder how she looked like. Will she like me? Will she want me for her son?
�Yes it�s very romantic!� I exclaimed and hugged him tightly.
He loose from the hug and he led me to the table. Then he got a bouquet of red roses and gave it to me saying, �This is for you, my princess!�
I got the flower and said, �Thank you!� and I kissed him on the lips. I am so excited and finally he�s gonna proposed to me.
Then he said, �I know you�re not hungry since we just attended the reception dinner. But maybe you would fancy some dessert?�
�Sure!� I said and smiled to him.
He reached his hand and I got a hold on it and he led me near my seat. Then he held the chair for me and he let me sit. Oh my God, he�s such a gentleman. Then he sat when suddenly a man came out from the kitchen and served as dessert. Then one surprise came out. There were musicians playing romantic songs while we eat.
Then after we eat, he stood up and went near me. He reached his hand and said, �Wanna dance?�
I smiled and nodded then reached his hand. We walked farther from the table. He held my hand and placed it on top of his shoulders, then he put his hands on my waist and we danced slowly. We stared at each other while we danced. After few moments, I placed my head on his chest and we danced more. As we danced that night I felt happy and contented. Then after sometime of dancing, he looked at me and said, �I have another surprise for you!�
�Another surprise?�
�Yeah! Come on I�ll show you!�
�Come in!� he said and I got in.
He opened the light and I saw a mannequin wearing a wedding gown. Then I saw a banner near the window with words written, �Will you marry me?� I looked at and he smiled saying, �And your answer would be?� I smiled back at him said, �Yes!�. I hugged him and we kissed passionately.
I pulled back from the kiss and said, �Are you forgetting something?� I asked him. He was clueless. I raised my hand and wiggled my ring finger. He then said, �Oh! Sorry I almost forgot!� He got a box from his pocket and opened it. He slipped the ring in my finger and I looked at it.
�It�s lovely!� I exclaimed while looking at the ring in my finger.
�Not as lovely as you!� he said sexily.
We stared at each other and next thing I know we kissed passionately on the lips. Then I pulled back and asked, �Is that my wedding gown?�
He smiled and said, �Yes, and this is our new house!�
I was surprised to hear that from him.
�You mean this is our house? OUR HOUSE?� I asked reassuring what I heard was right.
�Yes! Our love shack!� he answered.
�Oh ! This is too much! I love you!�
�I love you too!� he said and I hugged him.
Then we kissed and kissed and later throw ourselves on the bed and made love the whole night. And that night is the most romantic and unforgettable experience of my life well next to that is my wedding day.
I woke up and saw beside me still asleep. I didn�t want to wake him up so I slowly moved from the bed and got dressed. While getting dressed, I looked at and smiled. God, he is more gorgeous when he�s asleep. Then I looked around the room and saw the wedding dress. I removed it from the mannequin tried it on. After I tried it, I looked at myself in the mirror and you cannot believe what you saw. You saw yourself wearing the gown. I looked good in it. As I was about to take it off, spoke, �You look very lovely in that gown!� My heart beat faster and was surprised to hear his voice.
�Sorry I tried it on. Can�t help it!� I said looking back at him.
He stood up from the bed and walked towards me. He slowly touched my hand and said, �You are the most wonderful woman I ever met and I love you for that!� and he kissed it.
�Loving you is the greatest thing ever happened to me and I thank you for that! And he kissed me on the forehead.
�And finally, marrying you is the most wonderful thing ever happened to me. I promise you that I would love you, protect you, and cherish you all my life. I won�t let anything bad happen to you. I would give up everything including my own life just for you. And that�s how much I love you!� and he kissed me on the lips.
I pulled back, looked at him and said, �Oh that�s the sweetest thing I heard my whole life! I love you too!� I kissed him back. Then we made love again.
�You�re shaking babe! Relax!�
�I�m just tense! I hardly know your mom. I wonder if she will like me!�
�Don�t worry! She will like you!� he said and smiled to me.
Then we reached the front door. The house is quite big and I became more nervous. Then someone opened the door and a lady figure came out.
�Oh it�s you son! Welcome home!� said and hugged him. She let loose from the hug and looked at him. Then she looked at me.
�Hi mom!� he said.
�So, this is the girl you will marry?� asked him.
�Yes mom, I would like you to meet , my fianc�.� He said.
�Nice meeting you!� I said smiling.
�Call me mom! For Christ�s sake! You�ll be my son�s wife soon so you better call me mom!� said.
�Okay mom!� I said and chuckled.
�Let�s get inside it�s getting cold here!� said to both of us and we went in.
�You got a nice place!� I complimented.
�Thanks! So have you seen your new house?� asked.
�Yeah. How did you know about that?� I asked her curiously.
�Have a seat!� she said.
�Thank you!� I replied.
�, did you not tell her?� asked her son.
�Oh, mom gave the house to us as her present for our wedding.� He said to me.
�Thank you for that beautiful house!� I thanked her.
�Don�t be. I mean I�m his mother and I will do anything for him.� she answered.
Then a man came in and a young boy. They sat next to and kissed her on the cheek right in front of us. They smiled to me and so I smiled back.
�Darling, this is , �s fianc� and , I would like you to meet my husband, and that little fella over there is my son .�
�Nice to meet you !� I said shyly to him while we shook hands.
�And to you !� I smiled to the little boy. smiled back.
�Do you want to eat dinner here with us?� asked me.
�Sure.� I said.
and the rest led me to the dining area and there we eat dinner. After dinner, I went to the living room and sat on the sofa and played with and . Afterwards, said to me, �, why don�t you continue playing with upstairs while I talk to your fianc�! Can you?�
�Sure mom!� said and he left with in his arms.
Now I�m becoming nervous. Thoughts are now flying in my head and I don�t know why she wanted to talk to me. My hands became cold and I don�t know now how to act to her without beside me. Then she began to speak.
�I will mom! I�ll take care of .� I said assuring her.
�I knew you would do that.� She said to me and smiled.
Then came down from the stairs smiling at us.
�Hello lovely ladies!� he said looking at us.
�Is already asleep?� she asked him.
�Yeah he is! Mom, I�m afraid we have to go now.� replied.
�That soon? But we haven�t talk that much!� said.
�We still have to tell her parents about the coming wedding.�
�Okay. Take care!� she said to him then after hugged him. She hugged me too.
�Give my regards to your parents!� she said to me.
�I will!� I said. Then we walked towards the car and I waved goodbye to and got in. drove me to my house.
�What did you two talked about?� he asked me curiously.
�Nothing important!� I said to him.
�Tell me. I will soon be your husband, and married couples don�t hide secrets to one another. So tell me!�
�Okay. She said I should take care of you.�
�Is that it?�
�Yeah. She was suppose to say something but you came down.�
�I thought she said something bad to you.�
�What if she said something bad to me, what would you do?�
�Why do you need to know?�
�Of course I wanna know. Will you defend me?�
�Of course! I love you!�
�Even if she�s your mom?�
�Even if she�s my mom!�
I smiled to him and he did too.
�You nervous?� I asked .
�Not really. I mean I already met her so many times. But this time it�s different.�
�How is this different?�
�I�ll ask for your hand to your parents formally that�s what�s different.�
�Okay. Are you ready?�
�Yeah let�s go!� he said to me and we both got out of the car.
I knocked on the door and my mom came out.
�Good evening, Mrs. !� said formally to my mom.
�Good evening to you too, !� she said to him.
�Hi mom!� I said to my mom.
�Hi hun! Why don�t you both come in? I�ve finished preparing dinner. Why don�t you join us, young man?� mom said to him.
�Thanks mom, but we already ate.� I said to mom.
�Okay then.�
�Mom, there�s something wants to say to you and dad!� I said to her.
�Why don�t you stay there while I call your dad!�
�Okay mom!� I said and she left us in the living room.
�You tell them!� said to me.
�Why me? I thought you would tell them!�
�I can�t!�
�And why�s that?�
�Because I�m afraid! I�m afraid to tell them.�
�Don�t be. If you love me, you should have the courage to face my parents and tell them.�
�Okay. I�ll do it for you!� he said and kissed me on the lips.
Then mom came in bringing along dad.
�So?� mom said.
I elbowed .
�Mr. and Mrs. , I came here tonight to formally ask for the hand of ! I�m asking for your permission for us to get married.� said.
I looked at mom and dad and it looks like they pretty seem shocked and they were almost speechless upon hearing say those words.
�I�m impressed . You took the initiative to face us and formally asked us for our permission to marry our daughter.� Mom said smiling.
�I think you are a gentleman and I think you really love my daughter, so there�s no problem for me if you will marry my daughter.� Mom added.
�That�s okay with me as long as you will take good care of !� dad said to him.
�I will sir, I promise!� he said to them.
�Can I count on you?� mom asked him.
�Absolutely Mrs. !� he said to mom.
I saw mom looked at him strangely. I felt strange too. I wonder what�s running in her mind and why she has that expression on her face.
�If you�re gonna marry my daughter, then you call me mom and him dad, understood?�
�Absolutely mom!� he said emphasizing the word mom.
�That�s more like it!� she said and smiled to him.
Phew �.I felt relieved. I thought she�s gonna say something rude or she�s gona be mean to him. I can see also in �s face he is quite shaky.
�So when�s the big day?� dad asked.
�We�re still thinking about it. But maybe after a few months.� I answered.
�We haven�t eaten dinner yet so we�ll leave you. Are you sure you don�t want to join us?� mom asked.
�Yes mom!� I said to her and they left.
�Yeah. I thought they wouldn�t like me but I was wrong!�
�So this really is it! I�m gonna be Mrs. in a few months.�
�Yes you are Mrs. , unless you would change your mind.�
�I won�t. Have you given a thought when we�ll tie the knot?�
�Yeah. I was thinking, how about on the twenty-fifth of June? It�s our first year anniversary!�
�Okay. June twenty-fifth then!�
We kissed on the lips passionately. Then a question popped in my head.
� , I have a question.�
�What is it?�
�If the one you showed me is our new house, then what will you do with your old house?�
�I�ll sell it after we get married. I wanted the best for my wife! I love you!�
�I love you too!� and we kissed again.
Then soon he left and I went to my room.
He went to the bar and parked his car. Then he went in and saw already there drinking a beer. came near him and sat in front of him.
�Hi !�
�Hey buddy!�
�Are you alone? Where�s ?�
�He called up and said he can�t come tonight!�
�What�s the reason?�
�He�s with .�
�I see.�
�So what are you gonna say?� he said then drank another bottle of beer.
�I already proposed to !�
�And?�
�She said yes!�
�Congratulations man! I�m happy for both of you!� and flashed a fake smile.
�Thanks!�
�So when�s the big day?�
�June twenty-five!�
�Let�s make a toast!�
lifts the beer in his hand and got one and lift it up too.
�Cheers!� said.
�For your upcoming marriage!� added
And they both drank.
After sometime of drinking�.
�I have to go now. I still have work tomorrow!�
�Bye!� said sounding drunk.
�Are you gonna be okay if I left you?�
�Yes. Go away!�
left drunk. Then after some time, walked out from the bar completely drunk.
�Let me go !� I said to him.
�Why did you do this to me?�
�You�re drunk!� I said and pushed him, so he fell on the ground. He was moaning and I noticed he couldn�t get up. I don�t know what to do so my first instinct is to help him get up and so I did. I got his arm and tried my best to lift his body. Then when he got up, I slowly pulled him near me and I wrap my arms around his body so I can guide him walk inside the house. He was heavy and I was having a hard time bringing him in inside the house. But then with all my strength it took me time to get him inside the house. Then after I brought him in, I slowly dropped him in the couch. I felt exhausted afterwards. Then I got bowl of warm water and a towel. I sat beside his body and then I dipped the towel and slowly wiped his face.
While I was wiping him, my love for him sparkled again and I felt strange. I guess I still have feelings for him. I mean he became a part of my life. Maybe there still a place in my heart for him. I then stared at his face and saw how innocent and angelic his face is. Thoughts run through my mind again. I can see and feel that he still loves me. Does my love for him grow back again? Then he moaned again. So I got up and went to my room and got a clean blanket. Then I covered him with a blanket and looked at him for the last time and then went to my room. Inside my room, I still can�t sleep. I�ve tried everything to make me fall asleep but I can�t! All I can think of is and . My thoughts were fighting inside my mind and I�m trying to figure out inside my mind if I�m ready to marry or if I still have feelings for . Then sooner I fall into a deep slumber.
�?�
�Speaking, may I know who�s on the line?�
�It�s me !�
�Hey you, what�s up?�
�Have you seen ? I kept calling on his phone but it was off. I have bad news for him!�
I don�t know what to answer. I looked at the bathroom door and he was still inside.
�, are you still there?� he asked.
�Yep still here!�
�Have you seen ? Did he stop by your house?�
�No I haven�t seen him. He never stopped by. You said you have bad news for him. Would you mind telling me?�
�His house is caught on fire! I went by his house and I saw his house burned down by fire! And there were fire trucks everywhere!�
�WHAT?!?� you screamed.
Then went out of the bathroom and curiously looked at you. You looked at him and said on the phone, �I�ll call you back!� and put the phone down leaving no chance to say goodbye.
You don�t know what to say or how to react upon seeing in front of the bathroom door. You don�t know what to do so you did was just smiled to him and said, �Hey!�
�Hi!� he said shyly.
�Want some breakfast? I�ll prepare you something!�
�Sure.�
�What do you want?�
�Anything.�
�I don�t really know how to cook but I do know how to make oatmeal. Want one or you want cereal?�
�Cereal is fine with me!�
�Have a seat while I prepare you one!�
He sat in the dining room while I went to the kitchen and got two bowls and two tablespoons from the dish rack. Then I got a cereal box from the kitchen cabinet and poured some into the bowls. Then I got a carton of milk from the fridge and poured some from the bowl. Then I put back the carton of milk and the box of cereal on its proper place and got the two bowls in my hand and walked out the kitchen and into the dining room. I saw seated and looking at me while I went out of the kitchen. I smiled to him and went near him and said, �Here�s your bowl of cereal!� and handed the bowl to him.
�Thanks!� he said. When he was about to get the bowl, he accidentally held my hand and the world suddenly stopped. We were staring at each other for some time. I felt there was still a connection between us. We only came back to our senses when we heard a fake cough at our back. We both looked at the person who coughed and saw mom standing looking curiously at us. immediately took his hand away from me and became completely shy.
�Mom!� I greeted her nervously.
�Good morning, Mrs. !� greeted her too but shyly.
�Good morning, ! What are you doing here this early?� mom asked him.
He doesn�t know what to tell my mom. He was completely drank last night. Probably, he too probably was asking himself the same question. I can see mom was waiting for his reply. I can see felt awkward and confused, so I decided to spoke for him.
�His house was burned down this morning and he has nowhere to go to so I told him he can stay at our house.� I said.
�I�m so sorry to hear that! You are welcome to stay at our house for as long as you want! You�re welcome here!� mom said.
�Thanks Mrs. !� said with a forced smile on his face.
�I�ll leave you two alone, I still have to get dressed and go to my doctor�s appointment!� mom said and left us.
�Thanks!� he said.
�You�re welcome!� I said and sat next to him.
�Can I ask you something?�
�Sure!�
�How did I get here? I just woke up this morning and was surprised to see I�m in your house. What happened last night?�
�Don�t you remember anything?�
�All I remembered was last night. I was talking to and later on I became completely drunk and I don�t remember what happened next!�
�Yep you were really drunk last night!�
�Can you tell me what happened?�
�You came here last night. You were saying something to me then suddenly you fell on the floor. I dragged you inside my house so you could rest properly.�
�Thank you for your concern and I�m sorry too for last night!�
�It�s okay. You don�t have to thank me!�
�By the way, thanks for defending me to your mom!�
�No Problem!�
�That was great! How did you come up with such a story?�
�I did not make that up.�
�What do you mean?�
� called me up a while ago.�
�And?�
�He was looking for you.�
�And?�
�He told me� the bad news�..about.�
�My house burned down!�
I nodded.
�Oh my God! Why did you not tell me earlier?�
�I don�t know how to break the bad news for you. I�m sorry !� I looked down.
After a few seconds of silence, he lifted my chin, and then looked at me. He then said, �Its okay babe! I understand!�
Then I smiled to him. Then there was a complete silence inside the room. I felt like the world stopped and our eyes were locked into each other. Then out of the blue, we kissed on the lips with passion. I can feel inside my body the shiver when he touched my lips to his. Then suddenly, I realized I was kissing . I immediately pulled back and said to him, �I have to go now!� Then immediately stood up from where I was seated. I can see in his face the disappointment. I then took my car key and said to him, �Do you want me to drive you?�
He looked back at me and said, �Sure!�
He then followed me to the car. He sat next to me. I drove him to his house. On the way, there was an awkward silence inside. We never spoke to each other. We never even looked at each other. When suddenly he spoke, �I�m sorry I kissed you!�
�I�m sorry too!� Then there was silence again. Then we arrived at his house. We both were shocked to see the house was complete burned down and there were fire trucks and police cars everywhere. I saw and I felt guilty for kissing . I then looked at and said, �I�m sorry about your house!�
�It�s okay. Thanks for the ride!� he said and got out of the car.
I felt sorry for his loss. Then I watched him walked towards the fireman. Then I decided to go to and pretended nothing happened.
�Hi !� I said while approaching him.
�Hey! just got back! I�m happy at least he wasn�t hurt!� he said hugging me.
�Where is he?�
�Right over there!� he pointed �s direction. I looked at where he was pointing and saw talking to the fireman seriously.
�So what happened? How did it catch fire?�
�The policeman said it was faulty wiring.�
�Poor ! Did they recover something inside the house?�
�Nope! Not a single thing!�
�Oh!�
Then came over to us.
�Are you okay?� asked him with a concern tone in his voice.
�Yeah I am! But too bad not a single thing was recovered!�
�I�m sorry!� said and tapped his shoulder.
�Are you sure you�re gonna be okay?� I asked him.
�Yep I am. But I need a new place to stay!� he answered with mournful tone.
�You can stay at my house!� offered him.
�Are you sure you want me to stay at yours?�
�Of course you are my best friend!�
�Thanks!� he answered with a smile on his face.
I smiled to him too!
Then the rest of the group arrived and comforted . I spent most of the time in my office and tried to get and off my mind for at least one day. Then I went home.
�Thanks for letting me stay here!� said.
�It�s okay with me!�
�So what are your plans after your marriage? She will live here?�
�No. Mom bought us a house and that�s where we were staying.�
�And what will happen to this house?�
�I�ll sell it! Interesting, why do you ask?�
�Nothing! I was just curious! That�s all!�
�Okay. I was just curious, maybe you want to buy this house?�
�You want me to?�
�Of course, but it�s still up to you if you want this. Do you want to buy it?�
�Sure I�ll buy it!�
�Okay then!� said and handed a beer to .
�Can I ask you something? But don�t get mad!� asked .
�Sure! Anything!�
�Where were you last night after I left you?�
�I was drunk and pulled a girl!�
�And where exactly is your car?�
�Oh! I left it in the bar! You know I was drunk and the girl insisted to use her car instead!�
�And where did you both went?�
�To a motel nearby!�
�And what did you both do?�
�We kissed then�.You know what we did!�
Then and had a few laughs�..
�Okay then! Bye!� said and waved goodbye. Then left.
�I miss you too! Did I miss dinner?�
�No, you�re just in time!�
Then I led him to the dining room. And he sat next to me. Then suddenly mom called my name from the kitchen. I looked at him and said, �Mom�s calling me! Be right back!� Then I stood up and went to the kitchen.
