Chapter 18 - 18. The Epitome of Handsomeness… (1/2)

The next morning in City S….

Veronica stretched out her hand towards the right side of herself, to hug Reuben, but she couldn't feel the sturdy yet soft body. When she felt the coldness, she opened her eyes and found out that the other side of the bed was already empty. She walked towards the bathroom and seeing that he was also not there, instead of finding him, she took a bath and got freshen up.

After donning herself in a robe, she came out and dried her hair. She then found some casual work clothes in the wardrobe and got ready for her office.

Veronica was still on stairs when she smelled something really good. She hurriedly went inside the kitchen and noticed her man there.

Reuben was wearing a white round neck t-shirt with black pants. His hair was disheveled and wet, as he neither dried nor combed his hair after shower. This muscular man was stir frying some vegetables and meat right then with full focus. He was just like 'the epitome of handsomeness'.

Veronica was in daze viewing the man's profile and couldn't utter a single word. Her mind went berserk thinking how these muscled arms hold her tightly in his arms and the feeling of being in his arms is so blissful that she never wanted to get out of it.

”Are you done staring at me, baby?” Reuben asked when he felt someone's sharp gaze on him. Without looking he could tell that the person was none other than his beloved girlfriend.

The sudden voice made Veronica to return back from her dazed state. She walked towards him and tiptoed to give him a kiss on the cheek as she avoided his question and said, ”Good morning baby.”

Reuben turned his head towards her and gave a quick peck on her lips and replied, ”Morning love. Our breakfast is almost ready, so that my beautiful girlfriend can eat soon.” He then turned off the oven.

”Woah!! So many dishes…. I missed your cooking so much darling.” She said, salivating over the dishes.

Reuben laughed at his girl's comment as he hooked his arm around her waist and kissed her lips. He can't get enough of her luscious lips, even if he continued kissing her the whole day.

Veronica broke out from the kiss and she said, ”Go and get ready quickly. I'll arrange the table.”
