Memories from the night he proposed to me flooded my mind as I sipped on my now second bottle of scotch. He proposed to me without a ring. I can still clearly remember the reason why he proposed to me, unplanned. I still memorize the exact words he told me that night, how he stared into my eyes full of love as he was saying them. Natawa ako habang inaalala ang mga ‘yon. I pressed my head on the marble countertop and started laughing hard… so hard that tears started to form in my eyes. In my head, I can see the handful of memories we spend together. Unti-unti, ang pagtawa ko ay nauwi sa pag-iyak hanggang sa tumindi iyon at naging paghagulgol habang isa-isang nagre-replay ang mga alaalang ‘yon sa utak ko. Why did we end up like this? Inangat ko ulit ang ulo at lumagok sa bote ng alak
