Lie To Me

Chapter 61: 60

Our wedding day came. It was simple like it was planned; a simple garden wedding but the feelings I

am feeling right now is beyond I could explain.

"I'm getting married," I said, looking at my own reflection from the vanity mirror were I was being styled.

Reysa nodded and wiped her tears away. "I'm so happy for you, girl. I know how long you have waited

for this," she said.

I reached for her hand and squeezed it. "Thank you for always being at my side," I said, tears are

aiming to fall from my eyes too.

But then, we were cut off by a very dramatic clearing of throat from our back. There, Hanzel was

standing.

"You two are so emotional," he said.

I rolled my eyes and said, "It's normal because we are pregnant!"

"Ingit ka lang kasi 'di ka pa rin pinapakasalan ni Eli," Reysa said.

Hanz scoffed because of that and Reysa an I both laughed from that.

"Aren't you happy for me?" I asked.

"Of course, I'm happy for you. I'm happy that you are very happy now. But please, stop crying." He

said.

I nodded. "Thank you for being a good friend to me too, Hanz. And don't worry, you are still my best

friend," I said.

He rolled his eyes. "Tell that to your ex-boyfriend who will also be your cousin after your wedding," he

answered.

Until now, Hanz still couldn't get over that thing; Russell claiming me as his best friend. And until now,

he still have some angst against Russell, for Hanz, Russell will always be that ex-boyfriend he is

thankful I didn't end with.

I'm near to believing that Russell is right, that Hanz is a farmer; only that he plant grudges.

"You are getting married now. I can't still believe that my baby has turned into a very strong woman."

My dad said.

I smiled at him and wiped my tears away. We even stopped in the middle of walking in aisle. And I can

see how alarmed Elijah was, I just turned and smiled to him, assuring him that everything is fine. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

I looked at my parents, who are walking me in aisle to the man of my prayers.

"I'm so happy, Ma, Pa. I never felt this happiness until Elijah came to my life. He made me the

happiest," I told them.

My mom held my hand and squeezed it. "This is what we prayed for you, honey. We prayed that you

meet someone who will love you and make you the happiest always. And we are grateful that our

prayers were heard. We couldn't ask anything anymore, we just want happiness for you," mama said.

I nodded and smiled at the both. "Thank you, Ma, Pa. For always having my back, for not giving up on

me and understanding me in my most difficult form." I told them.

They both shook their head. "Just live happily, hija. Always prioritize your happiness, okay?"

I nodded. "He's my happiness," I said.

Elijah, he is everything to me and I know I am to him to. And for us both, our child will be the bestest

gift we are receiving.

I can't wait to start our own family.
