nuestra señora de guia
we attended another wedding (of a friend) last week. it was inchang and allan's wedding. and it was an emotional one. we didnt get to see her march the aisle. we were late, as usual. but everyone said that most of them were crying. oh well... it was held in malate church, which according to the priest, is a shrine for mama mary, nuestra senora de guia. reception is at nearby rosas garden hotel.
during the traditional church pictorial, tita cora (inchang's mom) was crying. at the reception, she didnt want to give her speech, afraid that she might lose herself (for the nth time). but upon the prodding of inchang, she managed to give a brief speech in between sobs.
in each guest's table, there was a chosen representative who'd give a simple wish/speech for the couple (that's new for me). and there were 2 who gave tearful speeches. and both were friends of inchang. you get where im driving at? to put this in simple words, as what allan's friend has said: " kung ako rin ang nanay ni cynthia, at ikaw ang mapapangasawa ng anak ko, iiyak din ako, allan!" it was meant to be ajoke, but we all know that its true.
i didnt tell this to cynthia, but i told our friends, hinde ako boto ke allan. i feel that cynthia deserves a better man. but if cynthia feels and thinks that allan is that man for her, then all i can do is support her and wish her the best. goodluck!
i didnt write this or say this to break them apart or to discourage them. and if allan gets to read this, who cares? care bears? if he gets to read this, i hope he proves me wrong. i do wish he proves us all wrong.
nuff said.
