Ace didn't expect him to get married now.
Just like what he asked, a Garden Wedding he hoped for, all with a white theme because he wanted Callie's both of them to stay clean.
Grandma Isay was also there, because she was the one who gave him the courage to speak up about what he felt.
Callie's colleagues at work were also there, and her bestfriend who Idolized me.
His smile widened when he saw Callie wearing a full white wedding dress.
A Filipino music started playing.
¶Sabi nila, balang araw, darating
Ang iyong tanging hinihiling
At noong dumating ang aking panalangin
Ay hindi na maikubli
Ang pag-asang nahanap ko sa 'yong mga mata
At ang takot kong sakali mang ika'y mawawala
At ngayon, nandiyan ka na
'Di mapaliwanag ang nadarama
Handa ako sa walang hanggan
'Di paaasahin, 'di ka sasaktan
Mula noon hanggang ngayon
Ikaw at ako¶
He never expected a woman that can make his heart beat fast, perhaps if Callie and him didn't meet.
The truth will not come out either.
He quickly wiped the tears falling from his eyes, he couldn’t resist it and bite his lips.
¶At sa wakas ay nahanap ko na rin
Ang aking tanging hinihiling
Pangako sa 'yo na ika'y uunahin
At hindi naitatanggi
Ang tadhanang nahanap ko sa 'yong pagmamahal
Ang dudulot sa pag-ibig natin na magtatagal¶
Callie also smiled as she approached Ace, Grandma Isay was right, Ace was the man she would not let go of no matter what, even though she knew it was too hard for both of them on everything that happened..
and finally she stood in front of him, the man she loved.
"Callie." Ace said.
Her smile widened.
"Now I know there is nothing who would let go my hands."
"Promise, you will not be alone anymore. I will be your handmaid. In happiness or in sorrowful days. " Ace said as he get Callie’s hands.
¶At ngayon, nandiyan ka na
'Di mapaliwanag ang nadarama
Handa ako sa walang hanggan
'Di paaasahin, 'di ka sasaktan
Mula noon hanggang ngayon
Ikaw at ako
At ngayon, nandito na
Palaging hahawakan iyong mga kamay
'Di ka na mag-iisa
Sa hirap at ginhawa ay iibigin ka
Mula noon hanggang ngayon
Mula ngayon hanggang dulo
Ikaw at ako¶
And now, it's here
They both came to the altar, they both smiled and now they are sure that their promise to each other is eternal romance.
When Ace looked at the priest, he suddenly smiled.
He finally found the right girl and looked at Callie.
That night's girl, and the woman who helped him in Paris.
The woman he watched crying Camille's funeral day.
Is the woman who will be with him for life.
"I Love you, Callie Yoon." He whispered and smiled again at the Priest.
"The best proof of love is trust.”
Well, if you don't trust each other you don't really love.
And this is a lesson, that no matter what you have to be honest with the person you love, because the time will come when you will prove your loyalty to one another.
The End.
Thank you for patiently reading.🥰
