Beach house - Part 1

On our way, we bought lunch and some sweets and gifts for the neighborhood kids. I put a nicely wrapped gift on her lap.

"What is it?"

"Open it and see" I eyed her.

"You want me to open it now?"

"Hmm.."

She shook the box to find out what is inside of it. But couldn't figure it out without opening it. At last, she opened it.

As we were already at the beach house entrance, I stopped the car and watched her eyes filling in with excitement.

"WOW!!"

"Do you like it" She looked like a kid who got a new toy.

"Hmmm..."

"Wear it tonight, we'll have candlelight dinner."

The gift I gave her was a light yellow, puff sleeve dress, with a midi-length skirt with a ruffle neckline, with a matching hair accessory.

"Did your mother chose it?"

"What do you think... I chose it myself." I said pinching her nose and getting out of the car.

We went in and as promised Ted had arranged everything. The home is also cleaned and some fruits are also kept in the pantry.

"You go and get changed, I'll set the table for lunch," I told her, and I started to set the table.

"Ok.. You might have to heat them up a bit." She said while going to the bedroom.

I went to my room and quickly changed into a knee-length shorts and a loose white t-shirt.

While setting the table I made some fresh orange juice, because she loves it so much.

"Did you put your rose body mist? " I asked her as the whole pantry smelled with the scent.

"Yes." She said while sitting in for lunch.

"Have some orange juice first," I said pouring her a glass.

"So what are you planning to do?" She asked whole eating.

"Hmm..... let's watch some movies and later we'll get ready to go on our date."

"HUH!!!"

"You have to wear the dress I got you," I said looking at her.

"So you planned everything thing, Mr.?"

"Every second, to be frank."

"Hmm"

"For two whole days, you are staying strictly with me."

She looked at me as if I have said something out of this world. I gave her a kiss on her forehead to wake her up.

"Let's wash these up together." We took the dishes and cleaned them up. While she washed I wiped. I jokingly played with her and splashed water on her. Making her hair wet and the water droplets shined because of the sunlight. I put my hands around her waist and got her close to me. It feels so comfortable when I buried my face in her hair.

"HI, aren't we going to watch the movies?" She asked me.

"Be silent, I just want to wait a few minutes holding you. So shhhh..."

I just cannot imagine, how I spent the past few days without her. But I have to endure it for a few more months. A small step at a time.

We arranged the living room floor with a mat, a couple of cushions, snacks, and drinks for our movie watch.

"I have a surprise for you"

"What is it?" she asked as we settled to watch the movie.

"I got your favorite drama series, you even listen to the music and songs of it twenty-four seven.."

"OHHH!!! let's watch it I love it...."

She had been watching Chinese dramas recently and she had been talking about "Crush (2021)" a story about a blind person and a radio presenter. I have to admit, I also fell in love with the drama and the songs and music so mesmerizing.

We started watching the drama series. She was really glued to the screen. I held her close to my chest and went on playing with her hair. We were about midway I felt her turn to my side. When I looked she has curled into my warmth. I set the Crush Soundtracks to be played on repeat and kissed her deeply before I cuddled her tight and took a nap with her.

After an hour I wake up and let her sleep. I had ordered a company to arrange the candlelight dinner on the beach. I asked them to prepare everything quietly as this was special. They effortlessly created magic and the food will be sent at around seven with a butler.

"My Moon, wake up." I stroke her cheek coaxing her to get up.

"Hmmm.." she murmured.

"We have to get ready to go on a date, remember?"

"Yes...."

"Then get up and get ready, I will only give you fifteen minutes. Wear the dress I bought you" I left after she woke up with a kiss.

I got ready in black trousers and a black shirt. I patiently waited for her to come out of the room. In a few minutes, I heard a door opening. When I turned there she was standing with her hair parted sideways with a studded accessory on one side to hold the hair in place.

I held my breath as I gave her my hand and held her, and I accompanied her to the beach. No wonder she looks so beautiful in a simple dress. The timing was just right. The sun was going down at the horizon. The view was breathtaking. We walked for a while, till dinner was ready. I snapped a few photos of her.

Her side profile was the best shot every time. I think today is the best day I captured her really nicely in my photos. I took most of these photos when she never noticed me doing it.

"Dear come and check these out".

"What did you take?" she came and sit beside me.

"I found a new model"

"Where? I don't see anyone else except us and the butler" I laughed at her.

"The model is just a kiss away" and I kissed her.

We walked back to our dinner table, dipping our feet in the waves that hit the beach.

"Black suits you better," she said suddenly.

I looked at her, but she was looking at the horizon when she said it. I hugged her and held her close as we went back.

The butler had prepared the food just in time and he was waiting to serve us. The food was well cooked and very delicious. I was happy to see her having a second helping of the food as it is the first time I saw her doing it.
