Huminto ang sasakyan ni Kent sa harap ng isang malaking mall makalipas ang halos dalawampung minuto ng tahimik na biyahe. Dahan-dahang umusad ang kotse sa drop-off area bago tuluyang tumigil. Sa labas ng windshield ay kumikislap ang malalaking LED billboards ng mall, naglalaro ang iba’t ibang kulay ng ilaw sa salamin ng kotse.

Pagbukas ni Mae ng pinto ay agad siyang sinalubong ng malamig na hangin mula sa bukas na entrance ng mall. Humalo sa hangin ang amoy ng bagong lutong popcorn, matamis na

    The city was the same.That was the first thing Kent noticed as they stood at the edge of the sidewalk, the late afternoon sun spilling across the busy street in soft gold. Cars passed in a steady rhythm, people moved in hurried lines, and the familiar noise of Manila filled the air like it had never learned how to rest.Everything looked unchanged.But Kent wasn’t the same man who once ran through these streets with nothing but panic and a phone full of unanswered calls.Now, his hand was steady as it held Mae’s.And on the other hand, their daughter’s small fingers curled tightly around his, swinging lightly as she hummed to herself, completely unaware that this place once meant loss, fear, and almost-giving-up for her father.Mae followed his gaze.“You’re quiet,” she said softly.Kent blinked once, as if the present had just caught up to him. His grip on her hand tightened slightly, not out of fear, but out of something quieter. Something sure.“Thinking lang,” he answered.Mae ti

    Kent kissed her again, slower this time, deeper, like he was trying to pour every unsaid thing into it.Mae answered him without hesitation, her hands sliding up to his shoulders, then around his neck, holding him close as if distance itself had become unbearable. The warmth between them grew with every second, with every touch, with every quiet breath shared in the small space between their lips.There was nothing rushed about it. No desperation. No stolen moments. No fear of being interrupted.For the first time, they had all the time in the world.Kent’s hand rested gently at her waist, his fingers tracing slow circles against the fabric of her dress, while Mae leaned closer, feeling the steady beat of his heart beneath her fingertips. It was strange how something so simple, standing here, kissing him without fear—could feel more intimate than anything else.She pulled back only enough to breathe, her forehead resting against his.“I still can’t believe this is real,” she whispered

    For a long moment, neither of them moved. The room was quiet except for the soft sound of the wind brushing against the glass balcony doors and the distant hum of the city far below. Somewhere outside, the lake stretched wide and still beneath the fading afternoon light, calm and endless, as if the world itself had decided to slow down for them.Golden sunlight slipped through the thin curtains, painting warm lines across the floor, across the bed, and across the white walls of the room that suddenly felt too intimate and too quiet at the same time.Mae stood in front of Kent, close enough to feel the warmth of his body and the steady rhythm of his breathing. For the first time in what felt like forever, there was nothing urgent waiting for them. No secrets. No fear. No one is trying to separate them. No need to explain. No need to run. Just silence. Just peace.It felt strange. Almost unfamiliar. Like happiness was something fragile she had to hold carefully, afraid it might disappea

    The honeymoon happened three days after the wedding. Not immediately.Because apparently, according to Lola, “Hindi puwedeng umalis agad ang bagong kasal. Kailangan munang pakainin ang buong barangay na feeling ninong at ninang.”And according to Vanessa, “Honestly, valid yang naisip mo, Lola. Free food heals emotional damage.”So for three full days, Mae and Kent smiled through endless congratulations, entertained relatives they had never met before, accepted envelopes with suspiciously aggressive blessings, and listened to far too many stories that started with, “Noong bata pa si Kent…”By the third day, Mae was ready to escape.And Kent looked like he was one unsolicited marriage advice away from disappearing into the ocean.Which was exactly why, early that morning, they finally left.Just the two of them.Well, almost.Because leaving their daughter behind for the first time felt far more difficult than either of them expected.Mae stood near the doorway of Lola’s house, staring

    Five months after giving birth, the wedding finally happened.It was held on a quiet afternoon beneath a soft golden sky, where the sunlight seemed warmer and gentler than usual, as if even the day itself understood how important this moment was. There was no grand ballroom, no luxurious hotel, and no extravagant decorations meant to impress people who had never truly been part of their story.There were no crystal chandeliers. No endless guest lists. No forced smiles for strangers. Just family and close friends. Just the people who stayed. And somehow, that made everything far more beautiful.After everything they had been through, the fear, the running, the silence, the pain, the island, the tears, the healing, it felt right that their wedding would be simple.Not because their love was small but because it was real.Every part of it had been fought for. Every part of it had survived. And now, they are finally here.Mae stood quietly in front of the mirror, staring at her reflection

    A few months later, everything felt like it had slowed down… and yet, somehow, time still slipped through Mae’s fingers like water she couldn’t hold.Her body had changed in small, quiet ways she was still getting used to. The way she moved more carefully now. The way her hand always instinctively rested over her stomach even when she wasn’t thinking about it. The way Kent never let her walk too far without checking on her first, as if the world outside had suddenly become something he no longer trusted.And now, everything has led to this moment.The hospital room was bright but calm, washed in soft afternoon light that filtered through the blinds and painted gentle lines across the white sheets. The air smelled faintly of antiseptic and fresh linens, but it didn’t feel cold anymore. It felt, still. Like the world outside had been told to wait.Mae lay back against the bed, her hair damp against her forehead, her skin flushed from exhaustion. Her breathing was uneven, still catching

    Natigilan si Mae, hindi niya alam kung anong dapat niyang i-react sa inakto ni Kent. Kahit ilang beses niyang sabihin sa sarili niya na dapat masanay na siya sa mga inaakto nito ay parang naninibago pa rin talaga siya. Tulad ngayon, isang ngiti at palambing lang nito ay nanginginig na agad ang mga

    Napatigil si Mae nang maramdaman niyang hindi pa rin inaalis ni Kent ang kamay nito sa ilalim ng palda niya. Parang biglang uminit ang buong katawan niya kahit malamig ang aircon sa loob ng sinehan. Mahina ang ilaw at tanging liwanag lang mula sa screen ang paminsa
