Chapter 215 - Marvellous Serenity... (1/2)
Veronica already fell asleep in the car as soon as she placed her head on the headrest of the car...
She was already very much stressed over the recent circ.u.mstances and now that today she got to know the biggest truth about Alonzo and Alex being twins, with the extra shocking reality of Alex of Alex being no more in the world, was really hard to believe. All these was too much informations for her to take in single day..
So Reuben decided to do something special to make her mind relax..
He noticed the time in his watch and saw that it's just 10:15 pm.. So he had enough time to take Veronica to the place where she would find herself very happy..
Holding her hand that was resting on her lap, Reuben caressed it and kissed her palm before muttering, ”I'll not let any sadness hover in your life Ica. I'll always try to keep you happy and jolly..”
After a long drive of almost one hour, Reuben stopped the car and shook Veronica very lightly by her shoulders..
”Ica.. Darling.. We've already reached here. Please get up now baby..” Reuben mumbled in a very low yet sweet voice..
Veronica opened her eyes slowly and looked at Reuben with a confused gaze.
Reuben chuckled seeing her expression and asked, ”Why are you looking at me like that, baby??”
Blinking her eyes to let go off her sleepiness and yawning slightly, Veronica said in a hoarse voice, ”Usually, if I'm sleeping in the car, you would not wake me up but rather pick me in your arms without disturbing me and enter our room before laying me on the bed.. Then why is today the sudden exceptional movement?”
Reuben grinned at her and said, ”Because today we're not in any position of me picking you up and laying you on the bed..”
”What do you mean?” Veronica asked with her furrowed eyebrows, being extremely puzzled.
”Just look at outside honey..” Reuben whispered to her in a very low voice.
Veronica turned her face around to see outside of the window and as soon as her eyes fell on the scenery of that place, her facial expression changed from confusion to pure astonishment..
”Why are we here now Bennie?” Veronica asked still looking outside the window with shining pupils..
Reuben didn't say anything in reply. He just came out of the car and moved towards Veronica before opening her side of the door.
Bending down a little, he unbuckled her seatbelt and stared at her lovingly who was looking back at him with completely questioning gaze..
He smiled at her before taking few strands of her hair in his finger and then tucked it behind her ear before giving a gentle kiss on her forehead.
