After All

The wedding

When Markus came into her life, he filled the feeling of being alone, he filled Ana's personality.

That's when she started to love Markus. She loved him then, loved the look in his eyes, the laughter in his voice and she loved him for the following days since then.

They are parked outside the Mansion of the Delgados. It is more modern style than their Mansion because Ana's daddy has an old school style.

He was nervous about their reaction to him.

"What if they are mad at me or don't like me?"

He held her cold hand.

"What won't they like, you're pretty, smart, sweet and kind, I might even be scared."

He frowned. "Why?"

"Because I have two handsome brothers, you might change your mind."

She loved the way he made her laugh. She loved his thoughtfulness.

When they entered Markus' mansion, they were immediately greeted by his sister.

"Sister.", Markus called.

"Hey! You're here, Hello dear, you must be Ana. I'm Camilla Markus older sister, so Markus's story won't run out for you, you're really pretty, Come! They're in the dining room. And Markus' sister is already pulling Ana.

When they were in the dining room.. "Welcome, welcome" Markus' Father greeted, "Iha, come here sit here next to Markus." His mother opened up, just like Markus said, he has two other brothers who immediately joined hands.

"Relax okay." Markus whispered to him

"Iha, Thank you for joining us tonight. I've been pestering this Markus for a long time to let us know you." Markus' Mother said

"Mom, you know that Markus never brought a girl here." His sister will tease him

"Sister." Markus is Sita

"By the way, we have already talked to your father, since your marriage plan has already been mentioned."

Ana suddenly said.."I'm sorry." He drank water and "Have you talked to daddy yet?"

"Yes, Iha! Your daddy and I have known each other for a long time. That's why when Markus immediately told me that he was going to marry a Suarez and Alejandro's son, I immediately went to see your daddy."

"When is the wedding date? Markus' sister Camilla asked

"Next month, sister." Markus answered

"Markus, next month I need to call my friend who is an organizer to help us."

Ana just smiled. That's how many and happy the family is. Growing up, because there are only two of them from her daddy. Ana has never been to a diner like this, it's fun

,Talking,Laughing that's why Markus grew up in this environment. Ana's heart is happy that Markus' family is open to welcome her.After dinner, Ana and Markus went to the garden.

"Thank you, Marcus."

"For what?"

"For making me always happy."

"That's all. I'm the one who needs to thank you."

"For?"

"For letting me, Have you." Markus kissed Ana's forehead at the same time.

When Camilla suddenly arrived with her two children.

"Uncle, want to play, please."

"Okay, okay" and Markus went to play with the kids and Ana was left with Camilla

"What do you feel?" Camilla asked

"About San?"

"You know when I was about to get married I was very scared."

"Are you afraid?"

"Maybe it won't work, maybe I'm not ready yet, but when I walked to the altar, I saw at the end of the altar that my life was there, that's why we have two blessings."

"Markus is very smart, I'm afraid I might not be able to repay everything he does to me. He makes me feel the I'm very special, He always makes me laugh."

"Markus, everyone looks at him like a Player but honestly, his the kindness and sweetest person I've ever known, I remember before we could buy toys but only one toy each and I like the two dolls, you know he did, He said to mom and dad that he can buy it for me, he is selfless, do you know the truth of what I am telling you that he has only introduced you as a woman, apart from feeling that he is his girlfriend, Samantha."

"Even if you don't tell him, I can see it in his eyes."

"That's why I know he's sure of you, I can only say don't let him go because, Nyan won't let you go."

The happy night is over, Ana has also said goodbye to Markus' family, Markus will deliver it

"Markus?"

"Yes, love?"

"Mahal?"

"I've been thinking for a long time what to call you, because I love you so much, love."

"It's you, don't be like that when you're excited."

"So, yes love?"

"Love."

"Say it again."

"Love "

"Yes, love?"

"Who is Samantha?"

"Who said Ate?"

"He didn't mention that apart from me, Samantha was the only girl you brought to your house that he met."

"Love, Correction, Samantha is just my childhood friend, nothing special."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Hmmm."

"I only love you."

"Okay, let's take me first."

"l***l?"

"Yes?"

"We can go to my condo first."

"Why?"

"Maybe a reward?"

"Stop it, we're getting married next month, just wait, maybe if daddy finds out, we won't be able to get married yet."

Markus just laughed and kissed Ana's hand.

"I can wait forever, love."

They are all busy awaiting the wedding of Ana and Markus. Everyone is ready in just a few days until they get married.

"Love, guest what. I have a meeting today and I'm here at your favorite restaurant. After my meeting I'll come see you later, you want me to get you something?" Markus said to his fiance on the phone

"Tempura, love uhhhmm, can I just come see you later after your meeting, I can't decide." answered Ana

"Better yet, didn't you say your driver isn't there, I'll just pick you up and then we'll come back here and I'll just reserve our table."

"What? It's such a hassle for you, I can take a taxi."

"No, you're just going to have a hard time, just wait for me, my meeting is quick, get ready then I'll pick you up after this, Ok! Love You."

She loved the way this man treated her. She felt her freedom. They didn't need to hide because her father was in favor of Markus.

On one occasion after she was measuring a wedding gown, they decided to have lunch outside before Markus took her to their house. Ana was talking about her dream destination and she stopped when she saw the young man just staring at her. , he smiled at her in a way that made her feel warm all over.

"Markus, are you listening?"

"You're just the most beautiful." And he touched the girl's cheek.

"Thank you for agreeing to be mine." Kissed Ana's hand at the same time

Ana couldn't hide what she was feeling in her heart, so she immediately covered Markus' eyes with her hand so that the young man couldn't see her blushing cheeks with excitement.

"Seriously, Ana, You're a very beautiful person inside and out, I'm the luckiest man in the world because in just a few days you'll be Mrs. Delgado, You're mine."

They were both about to get married but one day Ana was in a coffee shop while waiting for Markus. A woman came up to her and introduced herself as Samantha.

"You must be Ana, I'm Samantha Markus' ex-girlfriend." And he sat down in front of Ana and Ana was about to speak but Samantha started talking

"Just for a moment, remember when you marry Markus, I will take everything from him, he is only mine." She immediately stood up and Ana couldn't even speak to that girl because of the shock. It wasn't until a few minutes later that Markus arrived.

"Love, are you ok! You look pale."

"Maybe it's just tired, can you take me home?".

Ana went home and immediately called Markus's sister.

"You were summoned, is there something wrong?"

"Camilla, a while ago someone approached me and said she was a woman named Samantha."

"What did she do to you, what did she say, I will tell Markus."

"Nothing, don't worry Camilla, I'm fine."

"Don't listen to her that woman was obsessed with Markus."

"Okay thank you."

Before that, Ana didn't even think about what happened because of the excitement of getting closer to her wedding. Ana's aunt came from New York, because Ana had just announced that she was going to marry ,her aunt in just two days. He was ready to help her. But what he came across was not a forced bride to be but an In Love girl who was in love.

"Ana, are you sure, you're going to get married, we will going to run away from your dictator father right now." Offer it to the nephew.

"No, auntie, I love Markus." The girl answered

"Ana, that's the same thing you told me when you answered Kevin, but this time it's different, you're getting married there's no going back." His aunt's explanation.

"Auntie, you're the only one I've been able to tell since mommy disappeared, you're the one who stood up for my mommy, don't worry I love him and I know he loves me too, I know it sounds silly but these past six months we've been together and fixing the marriage in that short time, he made me feel the love I've been looking for for a long time, And I know he won't leave me and hurt me, So please trust me." He hugged the worried aunt at the same time.

The old woman sighed and asked what her niece said. There was nothing she could do because of her love for her nephew, she would just support her where she would be happy because this is what she promised to her sister who passed away.

One day before the wedding, all the guests checked in at a five star hotel where the wedding of Ana and Markus will be held. Their wedding was really grand and you could say it was the wedding of the year. It was prepared by their family because they both come from rich families. But before everything, Markus talked to Ana thoroughly.

"Love, we're getting married in just three days, after our wedding we'll go to the honeymoon gift from Camilla."

"Yes, I'm nervous and excited."

"Me too, but I would like to go home after the honeymoon, let's go to my condo in Makati , we won't depend on our parents anymore, I promise, just be a little patient when my business deals are successful, I can give you everything you want, just trust me." But Ana was quiet and thinking.

At six in the morning before everyone wakes up and they are all busy with wedding arrangements, Ana comes out and goes to Markus' room with her gift for her fiancé. Because of their conversation one night he found out that Markus still lacked the capital to start the business venture he wanted to enter. She couldn't answer him because she was shy about getting married and that was the size of his sacrifice for Ana. Ana also heard the dealings with bank loans and with investors who do not believe in his proposals.

So this is Ana's wedding gift, she knows that Markus will not accept Ana's daddy's help first. So Ana decided to get her savings in three banks worth a hundred million first from the savings left by her mother for her. She also sent home to her aunt the titles of the real estate property who were named after her that were left first to his grandparents on his mother's side and his jewelry from his late mother.

She knows that what she is giving Markus as a gift will help a lot, she is not sure if Markus will accept it or not but it is for their future because of Markus' sacrifice this is the only thing she can do after all they are getting married in a few hours will be helped, especially and they will no longer depend on their parents. They will no longer rely on the luxurious life they are used to. They will start a new life together as husband and wife.

If you calculate it, it looks like if you add Markus's savings to this, they will be able to start the business venture that Markus will enter.
