Chapter 46

  “I didn’t.”

  She pinched him furtively to which she just laughed off.

  “I love you,” he declared wholeheartedly and planted soft kisses on her temple.

  “Say it once more.”

  He chuckled and looked at her as if no woman would get closer to her caliber

  “I am glad that it is you, love. I don’t think I will be this happy if it’s not you I will be spending the rest of my life with.”

  “You are fluttering me.”

  “I am not.”

  “I love you more, much and always.”

  The song ended, but another one played again. She glanced at them as she rests her head on the crook of his neck. She was so consumed by the feather-like feeling that she has forgotten that they are there, too. Silently watching her finally becoming a woman.

  “What did they say about it, about us?”

  “They’re so happy that they couldn’t say a thing.”

  She giggled and hugged him tightly. ‘So comforting,’ she thought.
