Chapter 27 YOU WILL NOT ASK ANYTHING?

He started the car and left the restaurant parking lot. Adrian was still there.

John and Mary Ann already left because the man needs to drop Mary Ann home. But, there has been a sudden change of plan. Mary Ann isn't going home but John will be taking him in his place.

The house is two - storey. It's not small and not big either. It's just a simple house.

The house fence is made of flowering plants. On the right side, there is a garage while on the left before you enter the house is a lawn going to the back side of the house.

The house has three bedrooms on the second floor and a big living room.

The house is clean. The dining room is next to the living room. There's a door next to it when you enter, it will be the kitchen.

Once you open the kitchen door, on its right side is another door going to the backyard.

Mary Ann opened it and was surprised when she saw that's there's a vegetable garden.

There's a tomato tree, okra, water spinach, sweet potato and a lot of plants that can grow in the backyard.

Mary Ann was amazed at what she had seen. In a luxurious residence, she found a little vegetable garden. "Who planted them?" She turned her eyes to John who was standing behind her.

John looked so shy.

"No, don't tell me. I won't believe it!" Mary Ann said while smiling at him.

John nodded.

"Yes, it's me who planted them all." He said proudly.

"Wow. Seriously?"

"Yes, pretty serious."

"How did you do it?Oh, what I mean is, despite your busy schedule you still have the time to take care of them." Mary Ann said while still shocked, knowing that John is the one who planted the vegetables.

John laughed.

"Yes, of course. I still have time for this kind of thing. This is relaxing. Every weekend I am spending my time in the garden. When I flew to Canada, I asked my assistant to water them for me so they wouldn't dry and die. Well, as well as cleaning the house for me, so as you notice, it smells good even if I haven't been here for a long time." He smiled at her," But if I am here, I do everything from the house and in this garden."

"Wow" Mary Ann uttered and her eyes went round. She couldn't believe that John could do all those things he mentioned and on top of that, John loves to plant. Her gaze turned to the flowers outside that serve as a fence of the house. "No, it can't be."

"What?" John said and frowned. "What's wrong?"

"Don't tell me you also planted those flowers?"

John smiled from ear to ear. "What if I say yes?" He responded and his smile was with so much pride.

"I cannot believe this!" Mary Ann doesn't know what to think about the man in front of her. In her delight, she couldn't help but hug him. Finally, she admitted to herself that she admires this man. This man who loves plants and flowers. "Oh, Yes. I love you, Mr. John Lopez."

John's eyebrows raise but they aren't drawn together. His jaw dropped because of what he heard.

God, did Mary Ann just say she loves him?

John was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that from Mary Ann.

No, what he means is. He has been waiting for so long to hear those words from her but he just didn't expect to hear this soon.

He declared his love for her but he never pressured the woman. He proved to her that he is willing to wait.

Because of her, he learned one lesson about love, true love waits patiently without asking anything in return.

His heart is full of happiness.

John finally recovered from shock.

He pushed Mary Ann slightly to distance himself from her and he stared at her, " I am sorry but what did you say?" He heard but he just wanted to confirm because he must have made a mistake.

Mary Ann made her sweetest smile.

"John, yes, you heard it right." She said while nodding to confirm what she said.

It is as if John's world stopped.

He hugged Mary Ann tightly when his brain finally processed what the woman said. " Baby, I love you more. " John is already on the verge of tears. "I didn't expect to hear this from you as early as now but like what I have said before I am willing to wait even if it will take forever." John's tears are already flowing. "I am sorry if I am being too emotional. I promise that you will never regret accepting my love. I will do everything to make you happy. I will help you remember the happy memories instead of your past. A past that is full of bitterness because of being all alone."

Mary Ann lifted up her head and looked at John. She is frowning. What did the man mean on the last line that he said? Is John aware of her past? But, how?

John noticed that Mary was staring at him so he also looked at her.

Slowly, his lips are already down to hers.

Their lips closed and their eyes closed as they felt each other. They almost ran out of breath when their lips apart.

They felt the past had been ignited.

John carried Mary Ann in his arms -- one arm under her legs and the other supporting her back. Just like how a groom carries his bride.

They went inside the house and went straight to the staircase heading to his room.

Mary Ann held the door knobs and pushed the door to open.

John slowly lay her down on his bed.

Looking at the angelic face of his girlfriend, "Babe, you will never regret it this time. Don't worry, I will be gentle."

Again, he slowly put down his lips on her. Their tongues meet and move as if they are like swords.

Mary Ann closed her eyes and accepted the possibility that something will happen between the two of them. She felt an unfamiliar sensation.

They are alone and John is a man. When she asked him earlier to take her to his place, Mary Ann put this in her mind.

Mary Ann is excited because this time she is surrendering herself to the man that she could see. The man that will give her the chance to experience again being a woman for a man.

They danced to the music only they could hear. At first, Mary Ann hesisted in each move but was finally able to get the rhythm.

John hands traveled in Mary Ann's body. The woman arch in each touch.

She felt electrified. She doesn't have a fever but she feels like she's burning hot.

John kissed Mary Ann and his lips went down until he found her breast. He suck each one after the other just like a hungry baby.

Mary Ann doesn't know what to think. It is as if she is losing her sanity because of the sensation she is feeling right now.

John seems to be aware which part he should go to make her go crazy. To make her beg for more.

"John… Ah…. Mmm.. " Mary Ann moaned every seconds. She didn't imagine love making would this be intense.

John's lip went down and down and down and finally stop between her thighs.

John holds both her cheeks below. She could hear a thud down below. His tongue enters her. It played well. It goes in and out. She feels like she is about to explode.

She couldn't help herself and she pulled John's hair.

"J--ohn…" She said running out of breath. "Ahhh… ah…" Moan after the other.

John position on top of her and began to thrust himself inside her. He slowly moved and the thrusted faster and faster until they both reached their climax.

John and Mary Ann didn't know what time they fell asleep. Mary Ann felt so tired. She couldn't remember how many times they had sex. She looked at the time and it's already six'o o'clock in the evening.

The man beside her is still sleeping while hugging her. Their bodies were both naked under the blanket.

John felt a movement. It's Mary Ann. He slowly opened his eyes and then smiled when he saw Mary Ann's face.

"So, this is the feeling of waking up beside the person you love." He said inside his mind. He will surely have beautiful mornings with Mary Ann.

"Hi," He said with a sweet smile. How long have you been awake? Are you already hungry? What do you have for dinner? I will cook for you." He said one after the other.

"Anything else that you would like to ask aside from that?" Mary Ann is still looking at him.
