I abandoned my car and crossed the road in a jiff. I hurriedly stepped into the cinema, worried that I might miss her. She could be in any of the rooms watching a movie, and if she were, I would have to wait for two hours for her to come out of there. My eyes skimmed the whole floor and finally rested on her back. She was facing the board, nibbling on her index finger, pondering whether she should or shouldn’t watch a movie. Which movie? I couldn’t care less. As long as I get to talk to her and get to know her, it’ll be enough for me.

“Should I or shouldn’t I?” she mused.

“Whatever it is, I think you should,” I answered from right behind her. Then she slowly turned around to face me.

Her long and wavy brunette locks swayed as she pivoted. For that moment, my breath caught in my throat as my blue eyes locked with her hazel ones; sparks erupted in me.

“You think I should?” she asked, looking straight into my eyes.

“Wholeheartedly,” I replied softly.

“Which would you prefer?” she continued.

“Whichever your heart desires,” I bantered, eyes glinting.

“Hmm… Have you watched The Martian before?” she spoke again in her husky tone.

“Nope,” I smirked.

“Do you want a gist of it? I won’t tell if you hate spoilers,” she smiled.

For a moment, I was rooted to the spot by her carefree and beguiling smile. Man, I am hooked. Totally and unconditionally hooked.


My Curvy Italian Queen

Anakin always has a way of bringing out the pink tinge to my skin. He revelled in his feat, taking great pleasure in making me blush profusely, as a big smile was plastered on his vibrant face. He stood up and pulled me up to him and held me very tightly to his body, as if he was afraid I would disappear again. I love this man so much, and I feel so loved by him.


“Amidala Regina Bellini, you’ve just made Anakin Leroy Carville an absolutely happy man. It truly is a pleasure meeting you, my lady,” Miguel said with a slight bow.


“Ah…so his full name is Anakin Leroy Carville. I thought for a moment, you lied to me about your name,” I squinted at Kin.


“I had made a promise to you that I would never lie to you, Ami, and I’m a man of my word,” Kin uttered softly.


“I am so happy for you, Anakin. You got a great gal here,” Mrs Mullen said with a broad smile.


“Thank you, Mrs Mullen, but I am just a simple person,” I told her truthfully.
