"You're Still The One"

When I first saw you, I saw love
And the first time you touched me, I felt love
And after all this time
You're still the one I love
Mm, yeah

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong

POV: RALPH

I am now here in front of the altar watching the most beautiful woman walking at the isle. She's wearing simple white gown but stunning like a princess. As she's getting near, my eyes can't stop anymore the tears of joy that is about to fall. Promise Guevarra is the only girl I am willing to chase and no one else. She is irreplaceable and will always be the one I'll treasure.

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight

Tinapik ako ni Vince sa balikat noong makita n'ya ang pagpatak ng aking mga luha.

"Congratulations agad." Sabi n'ya. He is my very bestfriend and now my best man. Inaalalayan naman ni Abi si Promise as she walks on the isle because of her long back gown. Abi is her bridesmaid. Ang mga ninong at ninang namin ay halos member ng Wings Mafia Org. kabilang na nga roon ang tatay ni Grey na isa sa sponsors, si Tito Gordon katabi ang daddy ko at daddy ni Promise. Ang mommy ko naman at mommy ni Promise ay masayang nagkukuwentuhan habang pinanood si Promise na naglalakad. Hindi sila kagaya ng ibang magulang na umiiyak sa halip ay masaya pa.

"Bilisan n'yo Ralph at Promise ha? Matatanda na kami." Sabi ni Mommy.

"Kahit kambal na, isang babae at lalaki." Sabi naman ng mommy ni Promise na napalakas kaya rinig ang hagikhikan sa loob ng simbahan.

"Mommy!" Paninita ni Promise at nag-peace sign naman ang mommy n'ya na tumatawa.

Nakarating si Promise sa harapan ko at napansin na naiyak na rin ito.

Ain't nothing better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missing

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong

"Hey...Huwag ka muna umiyak papangit ka sa picture gusto mo?"

"Ikaw rin naman umiyak, tingnan mo nga iyang mata mo?" Sagot naman ni Promise.

Sabay na kaming humarap sa altar at nakinig sa seremonya ni father.

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
You're still the one
