My First Romance 1 (Jacob Sullivan story)

Chapter 14

Monday Julia and I are at the coffee shop part time namin. Jacob stopped me from going part time but I asked him to leave when we get married.

I'm at the cashier now because one of our workmate is on leave kaya ako ang nilagay sa isang cahera. I saw someone come inside and sit at an empty table, I was a little surprised because it was celine who came in with a model friend of hers. She stood up and came to me. As she approaches my place, you can see in her eyes the narrowing of how she stares at me. Kinabahan ako, baka may gagawin tong di kaaya aya sa akin kaya inihanda ko na ang sarili ko.

"This is where the soon-to-be Mrs Sullivan works? how cheap." Panliliit niya sa akin. Pero hindi ko siya pinatulan. I smiled at her because that's my job,.

"Hi mam, what's your order?" I'm still smiling at her even though she looks angry with me.

"Stay away from jacob!" my eyes widened. I wonder why she is messing around here, doesn't she know that what she's doing is ruining her image that she should take care of in front of the public.

"Ma'am, let's talk with just the two of us, is that okay?" lalo siyang nainis sa sinabi ko. One of our co-workers came with a coffee frappe. Celine took the coffee frappe and threw it in my face. I closed my eyes, I calmed down for a moment because I didn't want to fight, especially in public. Huminga akong malalim at tinitigan siya. Kita kung nang gigigil parin sa akin.

"Don't you know how to control your bad behavior Celine?"I keep calm. She approached me, I became alert to what she could do to me.

"Do you think jacob's grandfather will accept you?"She laughed out loud, walang pakialam sa paligid niya.

"Let's see how much Jacob loves you. Did you know that everything Jacob will inherit will come from to his grandfather? What if one day his grandfather takes back everything he has now because of you? Can you see the one you love falling because of you? Let's see." ngisi niya sa akin. Napatulala ako sa sinabi niya, I know for myself that it can happen, when his grandfather finds out that jacob wants to marry me, he will surely be angry and can take back everything that jacob inherited from his grandfather. Naguluhan ako, sumakit ang ulo ko. Naluluha ako sa mga pinarealize ni celine sa akin. What will I do?

"Baks." tawag ni julia. Tinignan ko siya,. We were in the locker room and I changed my clothes because my body was sticky from what celine threw on my face.

"Ayos ka lang ba? Isumbong mo kaya kay jacob ung baliw na yun." umiling ako, I don't want it to get worse the situation.

"Wag muna baks, pag umulit saka ko ipapaalam kay jacob, ayokong mag alala pa siya sa akin." paliwanag ko.

When Julia and I left the coffee shop, Jacob was already outside waiting for me. I smiled as if nothing had happened earlier. He got out of the car and hugged me, he looked at julia and the two just said hi hello. Hindi na sumabay si julia sa amin dahil may lakad daw sila ni Doc Jayden. Parang may something sa dalawa?

When Jacob and I got into his car, he immediately kissed me on the lips. Intense and passionate.

"How is my soon to be Mrs. Sullivan? Everything okay?"hinimas ang aking mukha, at hinalikan sa labi nang mabilis. I smiled at him. "Okay naman, it's a bit tiring but it's fun. You? How is your day today?" niyakap ko siya gusto kung mag kwento sa kanya pero, ayokong gumulo lalo ang sitwasyon. It's for sure, Jacob will be angry with Celine and then his grandfather will find out. Magagalit lalo sa akin ang lolo niya. He will scare me again,. Nasa daan na kami nang may tumatawag sa aking phone. I let go of Jacob's hand and looked to see who was calling. Tita mia calling

"Who's that?" tanong ni jacob. "Si tita." pinakita ko ang screen nang phone ko, tumango lang siya.

"Hello tita."

"Nat, asan ka? Pauwi ka na ba?" tanong ni tita.

"Opo tita pauwi na kmi ni jacob."

"Sige may bisita tayo, hintayin ka namin dito."napaisip ako kung sinu ang bisita.

"What happened baby.?"nag aalalang tanong ni jacob.

"Wala naman may bisita daw sa bahay si tita." sagot ko. Napansin kung iginilid ni jacob ang sasakyan at huminto. Nagtaka ako.

"Come here. Sit on my lap baby."Hila niya sa akin na pinagtataka ko. Niyakap ako nang mahigpit at hinalikan sa leeg.

"Do you have a problem? Are you hiding something from me?" tinignan ko siya, seryoso ang mukha niya. What he said made me nervous? Does he know anything?

"I'm not hiding anything Jacob, I'm fine. why?" kinakabahan kung tanong sa kanya.

"You try to be happy in front of me but I can see the sadness in your eyes baby. Tell me, what happened today?" I buried my face in his chest and closed my eyes.

"Ok nga lang ako. Wag nang makulit please."kinagat ko ang aking labi. I felt him take a deep breath and kiss me on the head and hug me tightly.

"I want you to know, no matter what your problem is, it's also my problem, I want us to be one not only in our hearts but also in the challenges of our lives. I love you so much baby.. Do you know that you are the only girl who drives me crazy like this." titig na titig siya sa akin, napalunok ako. Napaluha ako sa sinabi niya. Mahal na mahal ko din ang taong to.

"I love you too.. Mahal na mahal kita. No matter what happens, remember this, my heart only knows you. My heart will only beat for you." hindi ko na napigilang umiyak.. Hinawakan niya ang magkabilaang pisngi ko.

"Let's get married baby please." nagulat ako sa sinabi niya.

"Seryoso ka ba?"

"Yes, Let's get married now, I just want to make sure you can't be far away from me." napaiyak ako sa sinabi niya. Tumango ako.

He started the engine. I do not know where we are going. Who are we going to? Jacob stopped at a boutique. We bought a white dress that I will wear later, just a simple dress but very beautiful. While I was getting dressed, he was talking to his friends. When I came out, he smiled and greeted me with a hug.

"Are you ready my beautiful wife?" kinindatan ako. Kumabog ang dibdib ko..

"I'm ready, my handsome husband."kinindatan ko din siya.

Sa isang hotel kami nagpunta. When we arrived,sunod sunod na ring nagdatingan ang mga friends niya. Nagulat ako dumating din si tita mia at julia.

"Baks, congrats!"niyakap ako nang mahigpit ni bruha.

"Tita."niyakap ako ni tita.

"Basta yung mga bilin ko sayo wag mong kalilimutan." Tumango ako at niyakap si tita. "Opo tita." naalala ko ung bisita ni tita. "Tita sinong bisita niyo pala kanina."tinignan ako, at tumingin kay jacob na nakikipag usap sa mga friends niya.

"Hinahanap ka nang kapatid mo sa ama."nanlaki ang mata ko, may kapatid pala ako sa ama? Biglang natuwa ang puso ko. Hindi ko na natanong uli si tita dahil lumapit na si jacob sa amin. Magsisimula na ang seremonya.. Mabilis lang natapos dahil kilala naman ni jacob ang nagkasal sa amin,.

"Jacob, do you take Natalie to be your wedded wife, to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, and forsaking all others, be faithful only to her, for as long as you both shall live?"-judge

"I do." titig na titig sa akin, kita ko ang saya sa kanyang mukha.

"Natalie, do you take Jacob to be your wedded husband to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health and forsaking all others, be faithful only to him so long as you both shall live?"-judge

"I do."tinitigan ko din siya nang buong pagmamahal.

“In the sight of God and these witnesses, I now pronounce you husband and wife! You may now kiss jacob your bride!”-judge

He held both of my cheeks and swallowed hard. He kissed me passionately and eagerly on my lips. I also returned a passionate kiss.

"I love you so much baby. I promise to never lose our spark and to always do the little things to make you happy.” his eyes were red as if he was going to cry at any moment.

"I will always love you no matter what. I love you too baby.." sabi ko hindi ako iiyak e, pero hindi ko napigilan. Hindi maputol putol ang aking luha.

Hinalikan ulit ako nang madiin sa labi.

"One down man. Who's next?" sabi ni Benedick Sarmiento. Nagtawanan sila. Nakatingin sila sa akin. Niyakap ako ni jacob. "Relax baby, be ready later."bulong niya sa akin.

"Dude. Congrats!" Nicholas Matthias Johnson.

"Takot na takot mawalan dude,"Larry Castro. He tapped jacob on the arm.

"We're happy with your decision dude, we're just here always for you."Manuel Agustin.
