Chapter 431 - Only yours for lifetime... (1/2)

”So it's the last date night of us as a girlfriend and boyfriend, right? After all, from tomorrow on we're going to be married and I'll be known as your wife, Mrs. Veronica Reuben Smith..” Veronica muttered in a low voice but enough to be heard by her beloved.

Reuben nodded his head and replied, ”Yes darling, from tomorrow onwards , you'll be my wife, Mrs. Smith. And I'm your husband, only yours for lifetime.”

Veronica smiled at him and said playfully, ”So what are we waiting for? Let's start eating to celebrate the last day of our bachelorhood.”

Chuckling at her, Reuben nodded and served her food.

He was about to serve his own food in a different plate when Veronica interrupted him, ”Don't Bennie. Let's share it today for the last time as an unmarried couple..”

Reuben nodded his head smilingly as both of them had their dinner peacefully, feeding each other while having some talks.

----

After the dinner was done, they started walking through the garden hand in hand, feeling the low breeze caressing their faces.

They were completely silent as if they were trying to savour the last bit of their time before entering into the married life.

Few minutes later, the alarm of Reuben's phone rang up which broke the silent yet comfortable silence between them.

”What happened Bennie? Why did you set an alarm?” Veronica asked confusedly.

Reuben cheekily smiled at her and without replying, he just kneeled down on the ground holding Veronica's hands.

Veronica stared at him in puzzlement and asked, ”Bennie, what are you doing?”

”Nothing much Ica. Just celebrating the very special day of our life.” Reuben replied beamingly.

Veronica too gave him a bright smile, already guessing what was about to come and as expected Reuben took out something from his pocket.

”Love.. As I've already said it to you countless of times that you're the bestest thing which ever happened to me. I love you so much that I can not even think of leaving without you for a single second...

You're my sunshine, my moonlight, my everything. You lighten up my life with your beautiful smile. I have always been in love with you, maybe from the time I've first saw you in diapers.” Reuben joked at the last sentence making her too laugh with him.

Chuckling at her, he again started to speak, ”Honestly, I was very much afraid to tell you about my actual feelings at first.

But when I finally got courage to profess my love to you, that day changed the purpose of my whole life. You accepted my love wholeheartedly, making me the happiest man of the world...

Thereafter, started the journey of our love life. We became so much accustomed to each other that we became completely inseparable. Like this, five years have already passed without us knowing...

And these five years are the best days of our lives. Thanks Ica for choosing me over everyone and being with me always. I love you baby.”

Tears started to drop from her eyes but her eyes was filled with love for the man who had own her heart.

Reuben got up from the ground and wiped off her tears from her cheeks.
