ASHLY POV
I woke up when someone was touching my hair.
I immediately raised my head "Dad? You are awake! Are okay now? Do you felt pain somewhere in your body? Huh? Let me call the nurs--"
"Come back here. I am okay." Dad said. He just woke up, so his voice was still weak and he still didn't have much strength.
"I heard you cried in my dreams. What's wrong?"
I look down "I did really cried. Kaiden and Ibroke up..."
He hold my hand "Why? Is he the one who ask break up?"
I shook my head "No, It was me."
"Why did you do that? You waste you 4 years and a half relationship..."
"I am not there to take care of him when he needs me. That makes me feels so bad. What should I do, dad? I put my face in his stomach while crying hard
"Get back at him."
I raise my head and look at him "But.."
"I know you love him but break-up isn't the solution for long distance relationships. He can go to visit you here instead or you could go back to the Philippines once or twice in a month."
I felt bad... and guilty.. and regret.
"But what could I do? I already ask for break up."
"Then go and win him back."
"But how about you dad?" I look at him
"I am already fine, I can call somebody if I need help for something. All you have to do is to win him back."
I am still hesitating.
"Don't be a stone-head."
"No, I must call your secretary to look after you. I can't be reassured to leave you here alone." I said as I fiddled with my phone. I book 3 tickets, one for me; flight from LA to Philippines, one for my father's bodyguard and one for his secretary; flight from Philippines to LA.
"My flight is next day after your secretary and bodyguard arrived her--"
"Then use it to enjoy the scenery here at L.A. You need a break."
I nodded and followed him. The next day, his secretary and bodyguard arrived, I bought the house near the hospital so that the two could stay there if my dad was already discharge. I also told them what they should do while I was away.
Then I went for a vacation just for 1 day. I was monitoring Dad's condition on time and the doctor said that his condition was improving.
"Thank God."
I have been staying at the hospital this past 2 months and I didn't even went out for a walk. There park looks good. Benches and Colorful light balb and you can see many more.
The air is also cold here in LA so I always wore a sweater.
This is such a romantic place for dates.
"Omg! Is it snowing??" I said excitedly as there were little white one and looks like from crushed ice falling from the sky. I haven't seen snow yet, because the Philippines is close to the equator so it's rare to snow there.
It's like I'm a child playing in the snow and catching it. I can already see the breath coming out of my mouth because of the cold.
"Its cold. Fvck, I didn't check the weather forecast."
I was even surprised when someone put a thick scarf around my neck, but when I looked at the person, it was as if time had stopped and it was as if the only thing I could hear was my loud heartbeat.
He smiled "Don't get cold."
"W-what are you doing here?" I stuttered to say.
"Didn't I tell you I'll come here for you?" He hold my both hands and look at me. His eyes also became emotional "Ash, I don't want to break up. I can't live without you. Please don't break my heart."
I was like a stump unable to speak due to shocked.
I slowly took the ticket out of my bag and showed it to him. I smiled when he saw look at me
"I was planning to go back to the Philippines tomorrow to win you back... but here you are."
He immediately hugged me and we turned around, when he puts down on the ground again he kissed me on the lips very gentle and full of love.
"Let's get married." He whispered
-----
"ASHLY DELA CRUZ do you take Kaiden Bautusta as your lawfully wedding husband?"
I smiled "I do."
"Kaiden Bautista do you tak--"
"I do."
I laughed, the priest hadn't even finished what he was going to say when Kaiden replied, he seems really excited to get married. A month after Dad fully recovered, we just got back and everybody was very busy preparing and now, its our wedding day!
"You may now kiss the bride." The priest said
He take off my veil and then we shared our first kiss as husband and wife...
"I want twin." He whispers
I laughed and beat him lightly. I know that I will be happy with him. With the person who used to be my mortal enemy, who used to be my bestfriend's boyfriend but now, he is already my husband.
