78 Chapter 78. Flashback - 1 (1/2)

Andrew laughed at the amazed expression on her face. Her eyes wide and twinkling, as she seen the most amazing thing in this world.

Her mouth was slightly agape in awe for the unique object. Her fingers were slightly hesitant to even touch the precious object.

Aeinshia slowly rubbed her index finger on the stone and felt it. It was a but rough, but her finger was gliding smoothly on it. She slowly traced the whole stone, still amazed by the sparkles emitting from inside it.

She then, turned her head to her father, with big eyes, pleading. Andrew nodded immediately and Aeinshia gave him a blinding smile and took the small stone into her small hands. Holding it with utmost care.

She put the stone on her right palm and cupped it a bit, afraid it would fall. She then, started tracing the stone again, with the finger of her left hand. Now, her eyes were shining brightly seeing the object with her.

”Your mother said, you will be like this.” Andrew suddenly spoke, making Aeinshia jump up in her place a little. She blinked her eyes rapidly, trying to get her heart beat to calm down a little.

”You surprised me, Father.” Aienshia breathed out. Her palm was tightly closed, when she was startled and she slowly opened her tight palm to see the stone was still safe and was shining brightly as before.

She sighed in relief and spoke ”Thank the heavens, you are safe.” She spoke to the stone in her hand and looked at it, smiling.

( Man, you are so cute Aeinshia. I can't stop myself from falling for you) ~ author

She liked it. There was no doubt in that.

Then, she realized what her father said. ”Mother?” she thought and turned to face Andrew, and to her surprise, he was also, looking at the bright stone placed in her hands. ”What about mother, Father?” She asked, her voice quiet and filled with pure confusion.

”We went to Cosmos lake, when you were still in your mother's womb. Your mother was so adamant on going to the river that day.” Andrew chuckled lightly, reminiscing the memory. He had a far away look in his eyes. It seemed like he was reliving the memory once again.

”She wanted me to accompany her to the river. It was hard for her to even tarvel for a short distance, as she was almost nearing the birth. Still, she wanted to go to the river.” Andrew shifted a bit, making himself comfortable.

Aeinshia understood that this story was going to be long. So, she too, shifted and made herself comfortable on the large and soft bed.

”Ah...This so beautiful, isn't it?” Beatrice looked towards her left and looked at her husband, who was walking alongside with her on the banks of lake Cosmos.

”Yes, my love. Its so beautiful like you.” Andrew replied cheekily to his wife, who was walking slowly with her hand wrapped on his arm, tightly.
