"Yeah! Now, I'd like to know why you didn't tell that you would co back today?" asked Kevin gently. He turned her around to face him and then looked her straight in the eyes. It had been almost a month since he last saw her. He found that she had changed a bit. He now could see a more mature and enchanting woman as compared to the cute girl who left so ti ago.
"To give you a big surprise, of course! Do you like it?" She quickly avoided his gaze after saying those. She couldn't help but feel shy with the intimacy that suddenly seed to occupy the place.
"You want the truth? I am more scared than surprised! You really should have called in advance. I could have picked you up at the airport," said Kevin with great affection. He reached out to wipe the beads of sweat off her forehead then pinched her rosy cheeks softly.
"I know how busy you are with your work. Besides, I'm very much capable of coming back on my own. You see, I am ho safe and sound!" Leena replied while smiling shyly. With his big warm hands still resting on her waist, she felt a kind of nervous excitent that made her muscles stiff.
"How is your thesis then? Did you get it completed and passed?" asked Kevin worriedly. He feared that she had to go back to school again since she said previously that it would still be so ti before she finished her thesis.
"Yes! It is all completed. Congratulate , Kevin. And I think I deserve a gift!" declared Leena with her eyes flashing with pride.She was actually thinking about the beautiful necklace she saw in his suitcase not long ago and was trying to remind him of it. She wanted to know whether it was for her or not desperately.
"You have my earnest and warst congratulations. As for the gift, well...I will give you my heart, okay?" answered Kevin teasingly. He said those words on purpose to see whether she would still push him away.
"No way! It is not a gift at all!" Leena's face began to burn like mad after what he said. She was clever enough to read between the lines and knew that it was, in fact, his invitation to do sothing unspeakable.
"Are you sure
im. She was even looking at him provocatively.
"Well...you can say that again. If that is the case, I suggest that you keep a close eye on to make sure that no one lures away," answered Kevin before taking a sip from his soup. His face was bright. He had never had soup since Leena went abroad. He really couldn't afford the ti to make soup for himself. Plus, life beca pretty dull when he was alone at ho thus, he was in no mood for als and would always grab a bite after work.
"Easy. And just so you know, I will even give you elaborate dowries when you leave ." Leena said with a grimace while pushing his favourite dishes towards him. She was acting like a good wife.
"Why dowries?" Kevin looked up at her in confusion. Shouldn't she try hard to win him back?
"Why not? I have been feeding you and taking good care of you, treating you like my child, if not husband. Though you are an ungrateful one all these years, I should not break the convenance. Just take it as my blessings for you two." Seeing Kevin's face darken at her words, Leena smiled slyly.
"You little rascal. Why not just say that you are planning to kick out of the house? Besides, may I remind you that we have been married for less than six months, so don't make it sound like you have taken care of for years." Kevin shook his head. The truth just sunk in, and he really could do nothing with her crazy ideas.
