That Doctor Is Mine

We worship You, we glorify You ”

The voice of the Parish Choir sounds like a singing angels. The combined voice of soprano, tenor, alto and bass is very nice. Then there is the nice piano too. A mother is playing.

“Praise GOD!

Praise be to God in the highest!

Praise GOD!

We thank You

To Your great glory

Lord God, King of heaven

God the Father is omnipotent

Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son

Lord God, Lamb of God

Son of the Father

Praise GOD!

Praise be to God in the highest!

Praise GOD!”

While watching the choir, I couldn”t help but stare at a girl. She’s wearing a white uniform of a sister. He looks a year younger than me, or maybe two years. Do not know. She’s so beautiful, her face looks like an angel’s. Her nose is piercing, her mouth is small. And with every opening of her mouth is also very beautiful. She’s so absorb glorifying the God’s name. And I should be ashamed to myself because I’m checking out a young nun!

And then suddenly all the choir stopped. And the beautiful woman I had been staring at sang alone. She sang like an angel. Her notes are high, her level is sharp and her level is obviously soprano.

“You who take away the sins of the world

Have mercy on us, have mercy

You who take away the sins of the world

Accept our request

You who are seated at the right hand of the Father ”

All throughout the woman singing, she was accompanied by a strong heartbeat. I was so absorbed by her voice, by the gentleness of her face, angelic eyes and everything about her are fascinating.

After her solo, the whole choir accompanied her again.

“Praise GOD!

Praise be to God in the highest!

Praise GOD!

Because You alone are the Holy and the Most High

You alone, O Jesus Christ, are the Lord

With the Holy Ghost

To the greatness of God the Father, Amen!

Praise GOD!

Praise be to God in the highest!

Praise be to God in the highest!

Praise GOD!”

I don’t know what’s gotten into me because I picked up my phone and I took a picture of her …

“Hi, ma!” I watch my wife hug mama. We visited mama and Niela on our house in Alabang.

Although Avah is pregnant, she still continues modeling. But that temporarily stopped when her baby bump got bigger. She’s nine months pregnant now. This month is her due and it’s scary because I might not be by her side if that ever happens.

“As expected! I just finished cooking dinner. Are you going to stay for tonight?” mom said and questioned excitedly.

“Yes. We will sleep here tonight.” Avah replied. I approached him and supported him to his feet. She’s wearing a maternity dress. It will be the second time we will sleep in my old room. The first time we spend the night was when we’re still not married and when mom first met Avah. When she was just pregnant with baby Angelo. That night was one of the most memorable night in my life. A sweet and sour memories.

“Avah! Are you joining us tonight?” Dad Nicholas asked. He was from the kitchen, he was Daniela’s assistant in setting up the dining table.

“Yes, pa.” Avah have a sweet and loving smile on her lips when she answered dad. They exchanged kisses on the cheeks while my father and I shared a manly hug.

We all went to the dining area. Before eating, mom led the prayer for the meal. We all held each other’s hand and then we shut our eyes closed. I hold Avah’s hand sweetly and gently.

“In the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.” mom blessed the food and then says, “buon appetito”

I filled Avah’s pantry with food. She looks at me as if she’s trying to say that she can’t afford to consume all of that. “For our baby girl.” I told her and she just shrugged.

Yes. We will have a princess soon. And I can’t wait to see her. I can imagine how small her hands were against mine. How short her fingers are, how beautiful our second angel will be.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

After our dinner we went to my old room. I switched the light on ad then I took my tie off.

“How old are you here?” Avah asked as she looked at my portrait hanging on the wall.

“Sixteen.” I told her.

“Oh. 15 years ago. You’re so young on that picture.”

“I still look young even though I’m 31, right?” I smiled.

“Of course. In my eyes you were just 16. But it’s only in my eyes, I don’t know what others think.” Avah chuckled. Then he walked around the room. She went to my mini book shelves. My book is purely related to medics so she might not find it interesting. Avah’s interests are really different. She is so hooked and bibles and I am always looking for medical books.

At the bottom of the shelves is a drawer. Avah opened.

“I thought you didn’t even have a bible.” She remarked after seeing and picking up my Old Testament Bible that was just hidden in that drawer. I approached her and hugged her from behind. I rubbed her big baby bump and feel comfortable so close to her. Feel contented in life.

My wife scanned the thick bible and when she opened it, a picture had fallen. Avah bent over to pick it up and she was shocked at what she saw.

“What is that?” I asked him.

Avah looked up from the photograph that she was holding up to my face then back to the picture.

“This is me! When I was 14 years old! H-how …?” I approached him again and took the picture.

Even me, I was surprise to see resemblance on the 14 and 29 years old Avah. I turned the photograph and I found my own note there.

My note says:

The most beautiful nun I ever saw …

How could I forgotten ?! Avah was the young sister I saw singing in church that day 15 years ago! It happened so long so maybe I don”t remember. I raised my head and held her eyes.

“It was really you …” I said in my lowest tone. “You were singing that day like an angel. I was in the crowd of Christians and I thought you are so beautiful and angelic so I steal a picture. But … I wasn’t really expecting that all this time, ikaw pala yung my first crush. ” I admitted because I have no secret to keep.

Avah could not speak. We’ve been together for a long time … trials and time have really strengthened us.

“In God’s will … you met me again.” Avah mumbled. She step closer and then she hugged me tight.

“So I guess it’s true that we meet our soulmates at 16. We are just too young to realize who.” I muttered lovingly as I keep her inside on my arms. “You we’re just 14 and I’m 16. Only God knew that you will be Doctor Sebastian’s nun wife.”

A throaty chuckle escaped my mouth. Avah moved slightly away from me and she mumbled, “you got yourself a jackpot because you married the most beautiful nun you ever saw.” She mimicked my note about her picture.

“And you are lucky to marry the hottest doctor in town.” I replied and we both laughed at our bragging to each other. “I love you Avah, and baby Angelo and our coming princess.”

“I love you too. You and our babies are the greatest gift from God.” Her voice was full of love.

And discovering that we are meant for each other, we locked our lips together.

I am Doctor Davien B. Sebastian, and I’m proud to say to the whole world that I have a nun wife.

-THE END-
