Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 18

Steven:

This is it! I am getting married today. Ok not really getting married

but today's very important to me. Today, i profess my love to antonia.

I'll also tell her about my previous scheme to own her land. I want to

remove all the fake between us and make everything real. I can feel it

in my guts that she feels something for me but i am so damn nervous

about how she'll feel if she know about my scheme

. I am afraid, she'll

leave me but i cant continue lying to her. I'll fight for her till my

last breathe. I also suspect that she's pregnant. After last night's

fiasco, i cant continue denying it. Antonia woke me by 1:00am this

morning crying for ice-cream. I tried to persuade her to wait till the

sun rose but she just cried more. I had to drag my jet-lagged body off

the bed and take her out to look for ice-cream. It had turned into a

date. After buying ice-cream from 24-hours mall, we walked hand in

hand to the eifel tower and boarded the elevator which took us to the

top floor. The view up there was so breathtaking. I saw antonia's eyes

twinkling in wonder and i was so damn proud to have been the one that

made her that happy. I still remember how she felt resting on my chest

with my arms caressing her stomach

. I hope my suspicions are correct

and antonia married me because she is pregnant with our child. This

would make me so happy. I can already imagine how handsome or pretty

our child would be. I hope He/she takes after their mother.

We're supposed to be at the church i rented for the afternoon in

about three hours. Antonia is still sleeping and i don't wake her up.

My phone pings and i sigh. I know it's surely my father. He has been

Congratulating me for supposedly doing the right thing by marrying

antonia so i can get the land for him. He sent me five texts

yesterday, all of them commending me for being like him. He has no

idea that i intend to protect the land from him. The phone pings again

and i reluctantly pick it up. Just like i thought, there's a text from

my dad but there's also a text from my private investigator. I click

on the message.

According to my research, Eight years ago antonia was in a coma for

months after she was hit by a truck while trying to save a woman of

about 40 years. I have emailed the records to you.

My heart leap as i read the message over and over again. I knew it!

Yes! Yes! Yes!. I am so excited right now. I don't think i can wait

till this afternoon for the wedding, to profess my feelings. I feel

like my heart is going to burst out with excess excitement and love

for antonia. I have to do it now!.I jump into the bathroom for a

shower and i even whistle while showering. After i finish getting

ready, i tap antonia and thankfully, she wakes up.

"why are you dressed so early?" she asks then yawn and i grin at her.

"i have to show you something. Come on, go get ready"

"what about the wedding?"

"we will be back in an hour max."i say and when she takes alot of time

to stand up, i pick her off the bed and carry her on my shoulders

carefully to avoid hurting our baby. Just incase. She squeals out of

surprise and her hands land on my ass.

"what do you think you're doing?" i ask her as i start walking to the bathroom.

"I'm holding on to you, so i won't fall"she answers giggling.

"you just love my ass, don't you?"

"i cant help it" she punctuates this with a squeeze of my ass and i

laugh so hard. I so want this for the rest of my life.

Toni:

"where are we going?" i ask Steven for the seventh time since we left

the hotel. We have been driving for awhile.

"be patient, we will be there soon" he says then take my hand in his

and place it on his lap as he drives. These past few days have been

the best days of my life. I think Steven cares about me now and i hope

he accepts our baby when i tell him about it today. I snap out of my

thoughts when i feel Steven kiss my knuckles. He seems so excited. I

wonder why. I hope its because of our wedding and i hope that my

suspicion is right that he has fallen for me. I hope today goes

well,for me and my child's sake. My hand goes to my stomach at this

thought and i caress it.

"antonia" Steven says and i turn to face him.

"are you okay? Or is there something you have to tell me?"he says and

his eyes momentarily goes to my stomach. My eyes bulge. Does he know?

Well, this is my opportunity. I have to tell him now. I clear my

throat and turn my body to face him.

"Steven, i am um"

"you're what?"

"um I'm--" my phone rings in my hand, interrupting me.

"hello" i say as i answer.

"you can't get married to Steven." the voice says and the line goes

dead. I frown at my phone. The voice was muffled like something,

probably a cloth was used to disguise the voice but it seems like a

woman's voice.

"are you okay?" Steven asks

"yes, i am"

"good, because we are here" he says and jumps out of the car excitedly

to open the door for me. I slip out of the car and my eyes crinkle at

the sight before me.

"what's this?" i ask as i walk towards the wall in front of me,

covered with writings in different languages.

"this is the wall of love. You see this writings, they all mean i love

you in different languages" he says and i swallow forcefully.

. Where is

he going with this?. Steven moves closer to me until his chest is

pressed to my back, his hands on my stomach.

"there was this girl i met eight years ago at a hospital, we bonded

for just the few minutes we talked. I even gave her my bracelet for

luck and for years i couldn't stop thinking about this girl. Few weeks

ago, i met this girl and she makes my heart leap. She makes me smiles

and i want her to be mine forever. You see these red dots scattered

across this wall, it signifies my broken heart and i hope you can put

them back together" my eyes cloud with tears as he speaks. Could this

be true?. Is he the little boy i have been crushing on for years?.

Wow! I cant believe, i am in love with the adult version of my teenage

crush. I look at him and whisper his name.

"Steven"He smiles at me and I on his knees.

"I love you so much antonia. And i'll say it in as much languages that

I can. Te amo,saranghae, to amo, se agapo,mahal kita, and since we are

in Paris,je t'aime" I start crying and he kisses my stomach.

"I love our baby too" he says and I gasp.

"You knew?"

"I suspected and you just confirmed it love." I drag him to his feet

and kiss his breathe away.

Is this their happily ever after?
