Chapter 7 - Making Memories

Green Marine park

It sure was refreshing to be out on this sunny yet cool breezy day, I always wanted a day out like this, free from worrying about my patients and spending my whole day and sometimes night in the hospital's operating room, it was getting suffocating for me and I wanted to run away but I couldn't, one time it was my dream to be a doctor, to help people in need, to do good deeds, now that I'm finally doing all this I feel enough. Now I wanted to live my life the way I wanted, the way Theo wanted but I can't just give up what I have now, right?

"Mommy come here!" Theo shouted from distance and as I turned around I saw him strolling around the Ice Cream cart joyfully and I couldn't help but smile watching him as he do that, halfway towards him and Theo ran to me, took my hand and started running ahead and I behind him, he sure os an impatient when it's come to food or specifically Ice cream, he loves eating them, he can eat hundreds of Ice cream in a single day, but I cant allow that.

Last night, Theo and I had planned everything out, and we laid out a flowery sheet on the green grass, a basket of food on the side with lots of snacks and cupcakes and the rose flower that Theo had bought specially for me, and we sat on each side of it, and one more thing, we had the best view with all the arrangements, facing the riverside of the park and it was just the perfect way to start the day.

"Mommy look!" He exclaimed loudly and I laugh as he shoot the water bubbles on my face, he had now attacked me with several balls of bubbles which made me close my eyes, I felt the coolness of water as it hit my face again and again and I got up from the sheet and walked towards Theo to make him stop but it was difficult to do so as he ran away everytime I tried to get the hold of him, finally giving up I walked back to our arranged place and I noticed Theo had stopped too, he must be confused about what am I doing? No, he must be thinking I got mad at him. As I got there, bend down on the sheet and took the bubble blower in hand "Mommy sorry" I heard him right behind me, poor baby unaware of what is going to happen and I turned around and shoot! A big bubble landed on his small face and burst out leaving tiny droplets of water on his face "Sorry" I mouthed as he looked at me with puppy face, "Bring on" and the bubble game starts, "whoever gives up first, will owe the another person whatever they ask" I spoke the conditions "Okay" Theo nodded his head twice and I was getting attacked, again.

Already half past 7 and here we're, in the long awaited Theo's favourite "Amusement Park" and I wondered how big amd crowded it was, I had my mouth wide open in horror, I was really not a social butterfly so I did not liked the crowd, I was too horrified to even see them, have to go through them was totally a nightmare.

"Mommy let's try that ride" Theo pointed at some thing, I followed his pointed hand and... what? Is he for real? "Are you sure, you want to ride that?" I asked to make sure "Yes Mommy" he again "Why you scared?" Added and gave a cheeky smile, "Baby, I think you forgot but this ride is nothing for your Mommy" I returned that cheeky smile back to him.

And here is that ride, a rollercoaster. We sat side by side all geared up, and Theo looked nervous but as he noticed I'm watching him he suddenly pulled out a brave face and smirked at me, don't worry baby all the braveness will be going down in a bit, giving him a final thumbs up to each other, the ride starts. It felt surreal for real.

"Come on Theo, we're 8-7 on this" completing all the rides we counted all the wins and fails of each other, and again he was being himself, a small child just the way I like "No, it 8-8, we tie" he lied and he knows it too, "Fine then no one owes anyone anything now" I added "Deal is down" he nodded as he gave me a smile, I couldn't be mad at him, never, and I pulled his both chubby cheeks, he's so cute when his cheeks puffs out everytime he smiles.

As we walk and talk in the Amusement past with sausages in our hands, my eyes caught something and I thought "Theo come" taking Theo's right hand into my left hand I walked into that direction.

"Photobooth!" Once inside it and Theo cheered up happily, "You see baby, we're going to make lot's of memories together" Theo nodded in happiness and entered one specific booth and I followed him inside, inserting some coins into the machine and we're ready for the first picture, Click!

Savannah's House

I watched him as he slept soundlessly with a pout on his lips, I ran my hands through his hair for him to sleep even more comfortably, I thought about our day out as I do so, a happy smile crept on my lips, today indeed was one of the bestest day with Theo, we wanted to do many more things but we were short of time so returned back home, Theo was tired too, the whole way home he was fast asleep in the car. As I recalled all the things again and again, my eyes caught something on Theo's bedside table, extending my right arm I took that bought it closer to my eyes and here it was, the photo of us, which we took in the photobooth, him giving his usually peace sign and I a heart on his right cheek, smile on our faces. I wanted nothing else, but us together happily living our life. I'm blessed to have him. We're blessed to have each other. Nothing comes in between. Nothing.
