Chapter 39: Sacrifice everything X Ceremony
"He will give everything!" Sabrina announced. She laugh like crazy and I can't understand why she's doing this all to us.
"You know what Lorence, you're lucky!" She sigh and step near me. I'm trembling because I saw her holding a knife.
"Sab? W-what are you planning to do?" I stuttered. I'm really scared right now.
"He is faithful and truly love you. You're really lucky Lorence." Did she take a drug? She's creepy. She's behind me now! Terrifying that I didn't know and I can't see what she's up to do.
"I love him since then, he was my first love. I do everything to get his attention yet I still can't. I can't even try to have him just for one day. He always refuse, he is always busy and when you came I have nothing more and guess what he is willing to give me all of his wealth just to save you. Is that insane? He is insane. No! I'm--" she's crying now.
"I'm sorry!" I just don't know what else to say.
"No! I'm sorry Lorence. I'm really sorry!" The tie on my wrist loosen...she cutted it.
"I'm sorry because I'm selfish. I only wanted him to love me though I know that it's impossible. I'm really sorry. Go now Lorence! Take care of him, okay?" My tears fall down on my cheeks. Why I can't afford seeing her crying? It feels like my heart is getting ripped.
"Tell him I'm sorry, okay? Tell him that I want him to be my friend again. Take care of him for me Lorence. I'm really sorry! You're lucky to have him, you're really lucky!" She utter, crying while sitting at the floor. I wipe my tears and bend infront of her.
"Thank you!" I hugged her, I can't hate her because I know the feeling, her feelings. I understand her so much.
"Please tell him not to hate me, okay?" She whispered, sobbing. I have to go now. Raze is waiting, I bet he is worried right now.
"I'll go now Sab. I will tell him, don't worry!" I said and wipe my tears before I turn around. I left her crying, weak and hurt.
I grab my phone and call Raze.
"Hello?"
"Love? Love where are you? Fuck! I can't forgive myself if something happens to you!"
"I'm safe now love!" My tears flow again. You're right Sabrina, I'm lucky to have him and I'm aware of that since then. I'm thankful to have a chance to love Raze and felt his love also.
"Where are you? I'm glad you're safe! Attorney, please cancel the property transfer." I heard him.
"I'm here at..." I look around.
"I'm here at the boundary of zone 1B and zone C, at the abandoned building.
Thanks God for giving him to me, someone who can give up everything for me.
"Okay love, don't end the call. Okay? I want to hear you safe!"
"Take care love, drive carefully. No need to rush because I'm just here, waiting for you." I waited for 20 minutes then...
"Shitt, love. I'm really sorry. Are you okay now? I'm really sorry, I wasn't there for you earlier." He hugged me tight.
He is very worried, he even check everything. If I have bruises or what. He is overacting but I love him. I really do. We left the place, hoping that no one will disturb us again.
"Love, she said she wants to be friends with you and she's hoping that you'll forgive her." He just shut in silence, trying to put his attention to the stirring wheel.
"Love, please forgive her. Okay? I guarantee you her change and sincerity."
"I'm not sure love, she scare me so much!"
We arrived at home and everyone was very happy that I'm safe. The next day we have a trip at Japan not just for a wedding pictorial yet also for a family trip. We had fun there, I feel like the days were unstoppable. We didn't throw a bachelor and bachelorette party because we just don't like it, we have a simple gathering of family and friends instead.
I want to see Raze now. I'm at my house while he is at the mansion because they said the couple won't stay together before their wedding. I don't know why but it drives me some excitement.
"Hija, you're beautiful on your wedding gown!" Mom told me.
"Thanks mom!" I turn around infront of the mirror. I have this elegant gown...I'll be soon his Mrs. Coleman.
"Hija, I'm very happy for you!" Dad uttered, he said happy but he sounds sad.
"Dad, thank you so much. Don't worry, you're still my king. I love you dad, I love you mom!" I said and give them a hug. I'm really thankful.
"The bride is already here!" I heard. There's a lot of camera outside the church and now they're capturing me and the guests are already waiting.
"She's the bride of the billionaire" I heard from a group of photographer.
The prelude started ended, it was the instrumental music of marry your daughter and beautiful in white. Now it's time for our parents to have their seats and after that I saw Raze's entrance, he is handsome...as always!
The bridesmaids now walk for their professional. It's my turn next and I'm very nervous so I took a deep breath. For my entrance I never expect that Raze would personally sang the song while I'm walking in the aisle. Gush! My heart! It seems like going to explode because of the beat.
"We'll do it all
Everything
On our own" Yes! I want to do everything with you and to the family we're going to build.
"We don't need
Anything
Or anyone" I highly need you love. I won't give up on you.
"If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?" I'll do everything for you. I'll take the risk and I won't give up on you.
Everything seems in slow motion. I can see how crowded the big church was and I saw how our guest smile like congratulating me.
"I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel" Me too, I go speechless because of you but my heart didn't fail to say how much I love you.
"Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough" they're enough love, I want to hear them more often because it's like a song that my heart loves to listen.
"If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?"
"Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life"
"Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads"
"I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own"
"If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?"
"Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life"
"All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see"
"I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all"
"If I lay here Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?"
I look at his eyes. It's saying how much he loves me now. I'm very lucky to have him.
"Dear friends and family, we are gathered here today to witness and celebrate the union of Pryce Raze Coleman and Lorence Catherine Celo in marriage. Through their time together, they have come to realize that their personal dreams, hopes and goals are more attainable and more meaningful through the combined effort and mutual support provided in love, commitment and family, and so they have decided to live together as husband and wife." It was a warm welcome.
" I tell you this everyday but what a better day to repeat it than today. You are the love of my life. You are my best friend, you are my lover, you are my inspiration. You make me everyday better and you make me better. I promise to love you unconditionally through thick and thin, in sickness and in health. I promise to accomplish one of the greatest streaks any human could ever wish to pursue- to tell you I love you every single day for the rest of our lives (which by my calculations should be around 36,500 more consecutive days if we live to be 130 years old) I promise that as we adventure through the rest of our lives together. I'll always be by your side loving you, cheering you and celebrating with you. I'll always put you first and give you my absolute best for the rest of my day." I cried and laugh at the same time while listening to his vow.
His dad is crying and my parents too, I know they're happy for us.
"I love you!" He mouth.
He was teary eyed. I just smile.
"I love you because you are happy, adventurous and strong. I love you because you love your family, friends and anyone around you just as fiercely as I love mine. Also, I love that your family has become mine my family has become yours. You are my best friend and I'm happy that we are on the same team. You are the love of my life and you make me happier that I could have ever imagined and more loved that I ever thought was possible. You make me unbelievably proud and I promise that I will make
you proud as your wife. I vow to listen to you and learn from you. I vow to laugh with you and cry with you. I vow to value our differences just as much as our common ground. I vow to put all my effort into strengthening our marriage and giving you the best version of Lorence. Raze, in good days or bad days, rain or shine. I'll love you forever. I'm so lucky you're mine."
I thought I can't say that because I'm very nervous, I was an introvert and I'm not use to speak infront of the crowd. I was relieved that successfuly I did it. I'm very happy.
We exchange the rings then they light the unity candle. Everything was done so smooth, the words of advice, priestly blessing and proclamation.
"You may now kiss the bride" the priest announced the Raze lift my bridal mantle and there... our lips sweetly touch with the pure love.
"Congratulations to our newly wed Mr. And Mrs. Coleman." After the recessional we proceed to pictorial. Family, friends and all. His fans were very happy for us and still willing to support until the end.
"Finally, I can call you wife now." He whispered
"I still want to call you Mr. Ungentleman!" I chuckle.
"Then, I guess Chump is still better!" He fired back.
Fate was done playing us but I know there's still a challenge coming. Since from the start I'm ready, ready to fight for him... for life.
We hear a sound of glass and silverware before a chant. "Kiss"
I just smile while looking at Raze and he is too.
"I love you!" He mouth before he give me a peck.
Everything is secured, my future with this man and the life of our children someday.
"I'm very happy because my heart only belongs to you" I hugged him.
The next day, we had our flight using one of his private plane to Paris, we're going to have our honeymoon there.
Months later~
"Waaahhh"
"Waaahhh!"
"Love, you okay?"
"Yeah!" It's when I know that I'm in this capricious desire stage and I'm pregnant.
"Love, I want ramen!"
"Huh? We don't have the stocks"
"I want rameeenn~"
"It's already 1am love."
"But I want ramen"
"Shhh! Shhh! I'll go now. Don't worry!" He said and change. He is cutely wearing his sleepwear.
"I'll go now, wait here. Okay?"
"Okay love, take care. I love you!" I said and get some peanuts. I love it.
I open the TV and watch on national geographic.
Raze arrived exactly 1:30 am.
"Here love!"
"Waaah!"
The scent of the ramen makes me feel like vomiting. Eww!
I'm craving for it earlier yet now... I don't like it.
"I-I don't like that now love"
"What? I wake the store owner up just to cook for you love."
"I just don't like it now. You can eat that love. I'm sorry."
"It's fine, what do you want now? I'll cook it for you!" He sat beside me after putting the ramen at the side table.
He is stroking my hair gently and smiling infront of me like he stored a lot of patience for me.
"Can you cook steak and fried chicken for me? Please!"
"Yes beautiful, I'll cook for you. Just stay here and watch TV." He pat my head and stood, heading now to our kitchen... just inside our room. I end up sleeping that moment while he was cooking for me yet, the next day he was up first and already prepare some healthy food for me though we have a servants. Thanks God for a husband like him.
"Love?" I call him. I need him.
"Yes? What can I do to my baby?"
"Oh? You're done taking a bath!" He added.
"Love I want to wear your shirt, can I?"
"Sure love"
"Can you choose one for me?"
"Sure, come here!" He held my hand and we head at the closet.
"You want this?"
"No!"
"This?" He is pointing his gray v-neck t-shirt.
"No!"
"This one?" It's his sweatshirt.
"Hmmm, no!"
"How about this?"
"Ah! No!"
"Then what? You want to share with my shirt I'm wearing?"
"I'd love to but I want this!"
"You said you want my shirt!" He complained and laugh.
"Eh? I want this!" I pout.
"Okay! You can wear that!" He smile and pinch my cheeks.
"Hmmmm, it smells good!" I inhaled and hugged it before I wear it.
"You looks good on my suit" he laughed while looking at me. I'm wearing his inside long sleeves and business suit that paired with his PJ's. This is the suit he wear at our first met. Yieeee, I love it.
"I love you so much" he uttered and bent down to kiss my tummy, it's huge and round now like a beach ball.
"See you soon buddy!" He said.
___
"Ahhhhhhh" I'm very sweaty now.
"Push it one more, it's about to go out." The doctor said.
I feel the pain but as I hear my baby crying, the pain was replaced by happiness.
"Love, you did it. You did it. Yes! I'm a dad now!" He yell happily while I just smile, I felt tired and sleepy.
~~~
"Bro, I know that if you're here, you'll be so proud of me. I'm a father now." We're at his brother's graveyard. We bring our son.
He is Ryle Cyriel Coleman.
"Baby, say uncle."
"Cle!" Ryle followed not completely so we laugh at him as well as proud.
Actually, we're surprised that he learns quickly. He is just 11 months old yet he knows how to say some words. We even hear him say mama and Dada without teaching him. He's kind of peculiar.
For now, I'm truly happy. I have an awesome husband and I can't wish for more. I'm very happy to have him, he is like my fantasy... I thought I can't have him yet fate turns everything to reality and bring him back to me.
Dear Lorence,
I still want you at our second life, don't you know that? I won't be tired to stay with you, to laugh with you, to do adventure with you, to cry with you, to face the challenges with you...I won't because you're the source of my strength. I want to grow older with you. I love you! K3U my love, forever!
My dearest, Raze!
I never thought that our path will cross and if the circles will repeat turning, I want to experience life again with you. I love you so much love. Until death do us part.

If you wait for the perfect moment when all is safe and assured, it may never arrive. Mountains will not be climbed, races won, or lasting happiness achieved.
In order to have great happiness you have to have great pain and unhappiness - otherwise how would you know when you're happy?
Our time here is magic! It's the only space you have to realize whatever it is that is beautiful, whatever is true, whatever is great, whatever is potential, whatever is rare, whatever is unique, in. It's the only space.
The end, it was just our thought. We don't know that end means it's the new start. For Raze and Lorence, they have that great and unique story and like everyone of us, we have our own story too, story that may remind us if we play a song.
Deep inside us, everything lives, with our imagination... nothing is impossible. Keep sailing and reach your destination. Don't forget that you're the driver of your own car, your journey so if you turn, choose the right way and be happy.
