ako i was giving not so subtle hints about the ring that i wanted.. i had a very specific ring design in mid.. princess cut, white gold setting, little diamonds around the band like an infinity ring.. very classy yet super blingy. hahahah
kaso what he gave me was a custom made solitaire cut, yellow gold band with a very unique swishy shape. at first i was very disappointed coz that wasn't the ring the i imagined i would get. Hindi ko pinaramdam sa kanya, i made it look that was really happy about everything. well, happy naman talaga ko not because of the ring but beacuse he proposed to me. hahahaha
pero as the night went by, he took my hand and titigan nya yung ring. sabe nya: "nagtatako ko sayo, baket hindi mo tinatanong kung baket yan ang binigay ko sayo."
so i said, "baket nga ba?" with a hint of alam-mo-naman-kung-ano-gusto-ko-tas-ito-binigay-mo-tse! look. Lol
he said: "pinagawa ko yang design na yan specially for you. ayoko kasi ng may kapareho ka. nakita mo yang style ng band? alon yan. kasi alam ko na kahit ang gulo gulo na ng mundo, basta nasa beach ka, sa dagat, gumagaan loob mo and nakakalimutan mo problems mo. dahil din sa dagat, kaya naging tayo, dahil parehong pareho tayong taong tubig. pinaka favorite mo pa at inaabangan mo yung sunset sa beach. gusto ko lang na kapag tinitingnan mo yan, na maremind ka about sa dagat and sa sunset, kaya gold yan, kasi "golden sunset". and the diamond, kaya yan bilog, kasi, ang bilog walang simula walang end. parang tayo we didnt know where we started, kaya wala rin end. na hopefully, pag tingnan mo yan and naremind ka about dun sa favorite place mo, gagaan din and makakalimutan mo problems mo wherever you go."
Syempre hindi yan yung exact words, hindi ko naman makakabisado yun, pero thats basically how he explained it. hahaah
So from then on, i never took it off, i thought it was the most precious thing in the world kasi a lot of thought was put into it. we had my wedding ring specifically made to follow the pattern of the band so i can wear it both comfortably all the time.
hindi man super malaki, i know it was definitely more than he could afford. (kinalkal ko gamit nya and i found the receipt. hahahahah)
so there. don't feel bad that you didn't get what you want. kasi minsan, what you didnt want, ends up being a gaziliion times better than what you've always wanted.
