Chapter 110 - Best Wishes (1/2)
I prayed in my mind that the surprise gift won't backfire on me. Stella was looking at those earrings with such amusement. Those pretty eyes were gleaming like the starts.
” Of course I love them..... ... but how did you..... ” Finally she spoke. Hearing her words made me feel relieved.
” Telepathy.” I replied with a smirk. The answer did not satisfy her. She made a ' are you kidding me? ' face.
” Jeez! I was just there.” I revealed the truth while rolling my eyes. There no point in acting all high and mighty.
” Oh! That's why you asked me that time if I got anything else.”
” Bingo!” I took those earrings from her hand, ” I'll put them on you.” When I was done I took a glance at my wife. She looks so gorgeous. The earrings matches her perfectly.
Oh god! Is she really my wife?
” Thanks.” A smile plastered on her red painted lips. I wish I can kiss her right now but her lipstick will be messed up. Can't let her beauty be tarnished by my indecent behaviour. Let's wait till we return from the dinner.
” Of course honey. Anything for you. But in future, if you ever like something don't think twice. Just get it. Okay?” She was embracing me tightly. Her slender arms were ticklish yet so comfortable. I felt like teasing her.
” Although it doesn't apply for a new husband.” I deliberately addressed the word ' Husband ' as a ' Thing ' which triggered her.
God! She looks adorable when she's mad. In fact she's pouting at me.
Stella slaps my shoulder as I laugh hard on the floor. Honestly I'm laughing at my own sarcastic remark. Seems like I can be sneaky if I want. Never knew I had this side of me hidden inside the depth of my aloofness.
All these years, I was just a plain, boring guy.
But now my life is filled with so many colours. Everything is so bright and beautiful. Even such activities like teasing and fighting seems to be enjoyable with her.
We arrived at the place where we were supposed to meet our friends. They were already there waiting for us. As we spotted them on the table, we went to there.
” Congratulations guys!” I shook my hand with Luke then we hugged each other.
” Thanks bro.”
” Here take it.” I handed him the gift. Luke's eyes were widen up with shock.
” Aww! You really got a present for me? You could have just gave me some ċȯndȯms.” Yes my friend, that was my first choice. Regina and Stella laughed. Stella already handed out the present to Regina.
” See! I told you!” Pointing at Luke, I told my wife.
” I'm gonna open it.” Luke unwraps the gift and takes out the sunglasses. His eyes were focused on it. The excitement is visible in his eyes, in his face. I knew that my choice was right.
” Remember when we went to the beach and you lost your sunglasses in the middle of the ocean? You really liked them so, I got the same ones.”
” Dude..... that's...” He was lost, completely speechless.
” And it was actually last the gift from your grandpa.” The incident happened a long time ago. When Luke lost those sunglasses he was really upset. But since he is the type of guy who doesn't dwell in the past, he forgot about it.
Although I have a feeling that he will be thrilled to see the same model of sunglasses again. The store I visited they had some vintage models. Luckily my eyes fell upon it.
” I can't believe you remember all this. I'm so touched! Come here! Gimme a hug.” He threw his body on me while sitting on his chair. It was extremely awkward.
