So it all began with a shabby and sloppy walk. I was all dressed up normal as a pure and simple visayan girl from the land of Mindanao. Right beside me is my man, dressed up all normal too; jeans and shirt but all brought a look so austere and flawless... In the eyes of nobody but me.
I was half-blinded and began falling, he brought me in a never-been-there-since-day-one place. A place I somehow then find special and breathtaking.
"open it", he says as i stroll forward beneath a vintage royal-like door. It was then that I realized that this place was a church, my eyes began wandering everywhere. A rainbow-colored paint, the fountain beneath the altar, the huge cross of Christ that brings beauty and solemnity over the place. In there was a sculptured images of Christ too that then marks an awe in my face. "I've never been in this place", i told him calmly, still amazed. He stealthily looks at me, smiled and then said "that is why i brought you here. Do you like it?", he asks. "i love it here!", i said with excitement. He leaned closer to me making me feel like kissing him, before so, he lifted me in an elevated floor for me to take a sit. His hands slipped over my waist then up to my neck, face, and landed in my hands"This is the perfect time and place to tell you how much I love you Kate Pauline Galagnara and soon to be... Juliada", I remained silent as he said those words waiting for him to continue. "Kate, will you promised me one thing?", he asks. "anything...". "Kita ra? Og kita na?" , his voice flourished as he asks in our own language. I smiled then said "of-course. kita ra og kita na" , i answer him aimlessly baring a lower tone. " i love you, today, tomorrow-" i cut him off before he was about to finish.-- I kissed him passionately and leaned even more closer to him now-- and together saying "always and forever..", all of the air must have been sucked out of me as i stop and stared, for i found myself not breathing, gazing at this handsome being that someday I would love to spend my forever with.
I was half-awake and half-dreaming when the alarm clock shout out. The sun's says sinked through my half-open window and tilted brightness through my two-storey hay. I let out a shaky breath and stood still as death. I let my mind wander backwards at my dreams, I wasn't at all certain, but i told myself; i know it was real, and it would come to happen soon.
I breath in and out and continue blissfully to ponder and dwell with my beautiful nightmare.
