1095words
I smile at her concern sometimes she acts as same as my mother.
I am wearing a long sleeveless dress with a light silk shawl because it suddenly gets windy here. The sun shines brightly as we walk out, I feel so happy walking in the huge space, breathing fresh air, and surrounded by beautiful nature.
We reach our destination and Miss Celine starts to place our food basket and then the guards come over to set our table and chairs, I sit on the chair for a while as I and Miss Celine enjoy a fruit tea.
Yeah, who has thought I would ever change my coffee into fruit tea.
I grin at myself and after we finish our drink, I force Miss Celine to explore the mountain, she was reluctant but I am able to convince her. Miss Celine takes a pony ride that I desperately wanted to take, but I am forbidden because of my pregnancy, and Miss Celine enjoys it heartily.
Seems like she is also caged in a mansion like me.
We are two prisoners enjoying our freedom.
When the sun starts to set only then we both walk back to our suite and then after having dinner, I fall into a deep and calm slumber.

On the third day, we didn't leave the suite as Miss Celine informed me about Ann's arrival and I waited for her patiently in my suit. Ann arrives in the afternoon and we both have lunch together, she looks happy and satisfied as she looks at my happy face.
"So, it seems this trip is doing good to you." Ann smiles satisfied and I thank her politely, "Thank you for this trip, Ann"
Seriously, I had thought that this trip would be another prison for me but no thankfully it's going very well for me until now.
"You need to stay happy and calm, enjoy your time here, Tess. I will keep visiting you, dear." She tells me and I nod my head obediently.
"So, Ann did you see meet any film actor?" I ask Ann, curiously.
She is here to attend a film festival and I am sure there would be many actors attending it, has she met anyone yet?
Ann gives me a huge smile and then she starts telling me about her interactions with a few actors and I listen intently to her.
I spent a good time with Ann. Ann has always been good company, Ann leaves after dinner and I crawl into my bed as soon as she leaves my stomach is full and my heart is happy and calm as I fall into sleep pretty quickly.

It's my 10th day in Aspen, I have become more healthy and lively here that's what Miss Celine thinks and keeps telling me. I don't see much difference but one thing I know is I am calm and happy here.
I touch my growing belly and somewhere in my heart I feel restless because of my husband's absence, this could be a good vacation if my husband also joined me but Alas, I can't force anything.
And neither he has made any move.
Well, let's just keep the things in a way they are. I am not in the mood to entangle anything and ruin my precious peace.
Today I am Miss Celine visited a beautiful flower market here in Aspen, It has lots of varieties of flowers and they are so adorable I wanted to buy them all but then Miss Celine's face told me that I can't and I buy a few bouquets.
Rose, Lily, blue Orchid, Tulips, and, Freesia.
I grin all the way back as I keep the bouquets in my lap as if I have won some lottery and Miss Celine keeps looking at me in amusement.
"I never knew you like the flowers that much." She says.
"I didn't know myself." I grin at her like a fool and she laughs.
As we enter the suite, I start to keep the flowers in vases but I have only two vases, I call the room service and ask for more vases.
It takes some time to come as I decide to take a bath and Miss Celine goes back to her room. We already had our dinner so now we are getting ready for bed.
I dry my hair and feeling that room service people have forgotten to bring my vases I decided to sleep. I was supposed to fall into a deep sleep when there was a knock on my door. I groan and then get up with a dull face.
KNOCK… KNOCK… KNOCK
I opened the door and then froze because the person standing at the door wasn't a person from the room service but my husband.
"Hubby?" I gasp.
"You still remember you have one husband." He says angrily and then walks past me while pushing a small suitcase behind him.
I blink multiple times and then rub my eyes nicely, I hope I am not dreaming at all.
"Tessy…" He calls my name and it breaks my illusion, I close the door hurriedly and then walk toward him.
"Why… Why you're here?" I ask him and he frowns unhappily.
"You are supposed to greet your husband, first." He says angrily as he folds his arms over his chest and looks at me intently.
I stay blank for a moment as to what to say to him and then finally I open my mouth, "Hello."
"Hello?" He looks amused and then scoffs.
I raise my brows at him confused and then suddenly he pulls me to him and seals my lips, I am not able to react to it as it happened so suddenly, and when finally I get my senses back he has already pulled away with a huge grin.
"This is the way you should greet your husband." His face lights up with joy and then he bends to open his suitcase, he takes out his clothes and then turns to me, "Where is the washroom?"
I point towards the washroom door and he nods his head announcing, "I am going for a shower."
BOOM
And there he disappears from my sight leaving me all bewildered, shocked, and pleasantly surprised.
