A sorrowful night (Sorrowful Series #1)

Prologue

Prologue

The calm weather satisfies me. I looked up at the sky and hugged myself.

For all those years that I'm suffering from depression, now I can say that I'm already free from the pain. Akala ko habang buhay kong dadanasin ang lungkot at sakit pero akala ko lang pala 'yon. People around me, who loves me, became a companion. Hindi nila ako iniwan sa oras na kailangan ko sila, may umaalis pero may dumadating din. Akala ko kasi pag-iniwan ka, ayaw na agad sa'yo o may mali sa'yo. Minsan pala kaya iniiwan, kase may talagang taong nakalaan.

I smiled a bit.

I stayed for the moment at the beach, still looking up at the sky when someone hugs me from behind.

"Hm, kanina ka pa hinihintay ng mga anak natin." He said. I chuckled when he buried his face in my neck, I tilted my head slightly to give him more access.

"Sabi ko alagaan mo muna 'diba? Inasar mo na naman siguro." I said. He planted wet kisses on my shoulder up to my neck.

"Eh, dali na patulugin mo na agad sila tapos pa-isa ako." Kumalas ako sa yakap n'ya at mabilis na kinurot sa tagiliran.

"Ouch!" umiktad ito sa sakit ng kurot ko.

"Tulog? Alas-kwatro pa lang ng hapon, tulog?! Tigilan mo 'ko sa ka-manyakan mo pati mga anak mo dinadamay mo. Tigil." Nakanguso itong tumingin sa'kin. Naawa naman ako nang mag-pout s'ya sa'kin, kelan ko ba tinangihan 'to sa bagay na 'yon?

I cupped his cheeks and kissed him.

"Okay, sige mamaya." I said smiling big on him. Bigla naman umaliwalas ang mukha n'ya. Grabe, hindi na nagbago 'tong lalaking 'to, ang manyak manyak pa din.

Tinitigan ko s'ya at hinalikan ulit. He is the same man I met at the bar 12 years ago and I'm happy being with him together with our beloved children.

Inaya na n'ya ako pumasok sa vacation house nila dito sa Batangas. We are walking while holding each other's hands and talking about nonsense things.

Being together with someone you truly love is such a blessing from Him. He makes you contended with your loved ones. He never fails to make you happy, just trust Him with all your heart.

And now, with my husband, I'm always ready to be with him for the rest of our life.
