Eliza's POV
Sitting on this couch is much more comfortable than in bed. Did he become mushy? He is clinging too much."Aren't you hungry? "I asked him."i ordered food " he said, playing with my fingers. What is he doing? "Claire, before we start a relationship, you need to know about me" i said seriously. "I don't care who you are. You are so perfect " he said. Hearing those words my heart lingered a sharp pain. I looked away .. He took his phone and reserved a room at the same hotel. My room number is 402 and he got 406."Is that necessary? " i asked him. "Yes, it is. Didn't i told you not to refuse me? You won't even consult doctors or take medicine " he said in a most caring tone. "How do you know i won't consult doctors or take medicine?" I asked in a way of suspicion. From the way he is taking care of me eventhough i refuse him everytime, he seem to know everything about me. What i need, what i like, what i don't like, what i am longing for,what health issues i have, what my problems are, what i am comfortable with and what i am not. How come he know all about this? He looked at me and a teasing smile appeared on his face."I know everything about you" he said then kissed my forehead. I pursed my lips to block the smile escaping my lips. He smiled wide and a little laugh escaped his mouth that shouted he is over the moon" Eliza, you're blushing " he said. How did i developed feelings for him? How did he made my heart skip a beat?He hugged me, happiness twinkling his eyes and smile. He is looking handsome than before.I never knew i had emotions.
My doorbell rang probably food delivery. He kissed me again and ran towards the door. I smiled at his reactions.
I took 2 plates and cutleries for us. I put them on the table and waited for him.He came with food. My eyes widened as i saw the number of covers in his hands. Is anyone else coming? "Eliza, it's all your favourites" he said. He put the covers at the table and looked at me. He is caring me too much. I hugged him and he hugged me back. "I love you, Claire" i whispered. He jumped holding me close and suddenly kissed me. The whole world melted around us, leaving only the two of us. He deepened it evenmore them pulled from the kiss. We both smiled at each other. While eating he was always talking about our marriage which make me feel better with his intensions. He already planned the venue and the food for the guest. He even planned our honeymoon. Silly. He makes me laugh and blush at the same time. I didn't even work.The more happier we are an the more love grow inside my heart for him, The more i fear. The demands i saved, the wall i built for my emotions are all vanished. Is this a regret or a fear? Fear of losing him or fear to be hurt again?"Eliza " i was startled when he called my name. I even dropped the fork in shock. His lips no longer hold a smile. "Wh.. What's wrong.... do you....do you need anything?" I was sweating and stuttering in each sentence. He take a few breaths to calm himself from crying. He is about cry. "Eliza, what's wrong with you? Tell me what you wanna say. Don't cry please " he said. Was i crying. I quickly wiped my tears. "Not now" i said. Let's talk about it later. "I said. He wiped my tears. I finished food then stood. I wash the plates and he was helping me. He was glancing at me everytime but i avoided to look at him. Not now."I should move from here today"i said calmly."I am coming with you" he said and i nodded. I can't stop him.
"Can i see your design?" He asked. "Sure" i said then showed my designs laptop. "How is it?" I asked. "It is really beautiful " he said, still not taking his eyes from the pictures. "Eliza, let's play a game" he said and shook me. "What game?"i asked."Tell me what are your favourites and i will tell mine" he said. "Is that a game?" I asked."No but let's say it at the same time. Let's see how familiar we are"he said and i nodded. We both sat on the couch. "Colour " he said. "1...2...3.." We both counted first then
"Black " - me
"White " -him
"Fruit" i said. "1..2..3.."
"Mango" -him
"Apple" - me
The game go on but weren't same at anywhere except when it came. "Mom or Dad" he asked "1..2.. 3.." This time it was only him who counted.
"Both " he shouted in joy.
I was silent. "Eliza, why didn't you say?" He asked like a kid. He really didn't realize."Who should i say? " i asked him in a soft tone. "Mom or dad or like i said b..." He stopped and his smile faded. I looked at him in a helpless look. I faked a smile and said "None" then i changed the subject. "It's already late let's go" i said then took my bags."Can we go? " i asked still faking my smile.He suddenly hugged me tightly which made me stunned at that moment. "I am sorry Eliza. I am sorry" he said and cried. I stroked his hair and whispered "It's totally fine. Don't bother". He hugged evenmore tighter and cried.
