Chapter 171 RELIVED THE PAST
1698words
My morning starts with my wife's beautiful face in my view.
I noticed that she has become more beautiful now, her face keeps glowing even when she is asleep.
Is this because of the change of surrounding or it's the effect of her pregnancy?
I peck her face teasing her and she moves in her sleep, "Morning, Tessy." I whisper with a smile and she slowly opens her eyes while yawning, "Morning, Hubby."
I couldn't help but kiss her deeply, already aroused by her sweetness but then straining myself I pull away from her.
If we do the s*x then we are surely going to miss the places I am intending to make her visit with me, today.
I order breakfast and then head to the washroom.
Absent-mindedly, I reveal to her that my visit is not in the knowledge of Ann and this would be a secret visit.
I just wanted her to be cautious around Ann but didn't realize that by revealing this I have added to her worries.
"What if Ann comes here? Then?" She says in worry.
Oh, my dear Tessy.
"Tessy, stop worrying, I am here for a few days, let's spend those days without any worry, ok." I hold her shoulder to calm her anxious heart and then squeeze her shoulders assuringly.
"But, Ann…" She still doesn't calm down as I peck her lips to stop her from being more anxious.
"Let's forget about everyone and have some fun." I tell her excitedly and she looks at me puzzled, "Fun?"
"Quickly get dressed, after breakfast, I am taking you out." I tell her and she looks at me blankly and then I urge her to get ready, "Tessy, go."
I get ready in formal clothes, jeans, and a tee, while Tessa wears a sleeveless dress showing lots of her skin but then she covers her body with a scarf making me pleased.
Good Girl.
After breakfast, Tessa stares at the connecting door where Miss Celine was staying and that reminds me of her medicine as I quickly take them out from my suitcase and then hand her. "Here."
"Where is Miss Celine?" She asks.
"I have booked her another room, she is staying there," I tell her and she nods her head in acknowledgment.
Later, I took her out in the Audi that I had booked for us. She looks happy while looking around the city and the summer breeze makes her hair bounce beautifully making her a diva. That is the reason why I have chosen an open-roof car for the outing.
I take her to the Ghost Themed Museum where my father used to bring me. I was so thrilled to relive the childhood memories that I completely forgot that Tessa would get uncomfortable with my choice of Museum and it also reminds me about the time when she got a nightmare by watching a horror movie with me.
That night, we had slept together, I had embraced her in my arms and it was the best feeling I could ever get in my life. I won't mind keeping her on my hold tonight, but what if it affects our baby?
I look at her with anxious eyes but she looks extremely calm, which amuses me and we continue walking inside the Museum without a single word of refusal or protest coming out of her mouth.
But once we get inside and begin our tour, she yells after every two minutes and I couldn't help but smirk while holding my best to stifle my laughter.
She looks adorable and my heart too feels thrilled by the first experience of reliving my past with her.
After that, I take her to visit the festival market every year during Festive time. There is a very huge market set by multiple buyers who bring antique stuff from all over the world.
I and Tessa buy multiple things there that we don't think were necessary but still would love to buy.
I keep all the things in the trunk wondering where I am going to hide them??
After the festive market, I take her to a fine restaurant for dinner. No diet has been followed. We order whatever we want. Tessa has two large scoops of ice cream. Maybe the summer heat is hitting her a lot.
But, she looks extremely happy and my heart feels more relaxed when I see her happier with me, and around the people.
She doesn't know that all these three places are a part of my life and then remembering another important place, I decided to take her there also.
After dinner, my pumpkin was full and she slept in the car while I drove to the destination that is close to my heart.
I don't remember the route correctly as I set the GPS and after driving for a while, my phone rings.
RING … RING … RING …
I park the car at the side and then pick up the call. It's Ann.
"Yeah, Ann."
"Andrew, I have been very bored here, would you be able to join me for the closing dinner of the seminar." She requests and my gaze falls on my sleepy wife beside me.
Thankfully, she is deeply asleep.
"Yeah, sure, Ann. I'll meet you at the closing dinner," I say and she responds in a cheerful voice.
"Great, I'll be waiting for you here, then."
I bid her goodbye and then stare at my wife's sleepy peaceful face, two more days only and then I am going to leave at any cost. I don't know how she will react when I leave, she must be disheartened and disappointed too in me.
But… Not now.
I shake away all the negative thoughts as I again start to drive, reaching my destination.
I park the car at the lake where my father would always bring me. I used to get bored while attending functions with him and then he would bring me and mom here to cheer me up. Very few people know about the existence of small fishes in the lake.
They hide pretty well deep inside the water and won't come up until you sprinkle their food.
I embrace Tessa in my arms while remembering all the childhood time I had spent here. My parent's laugh echoes in the background and caressing Tessa's hair I seem to get lost in the past.
She groaned in her sleep and finally, I decided to wake her up, we need to go back to the resort too. Her body shouldn't get more tired.
"Tessy…" I shake her arm lightly and Tessa opens her eyes slowly, she looks surprised to see the dark sky above us. "Where are we?" She asks.
"Get up, I want to show you something." I pull her up and then lead her towards the lake. She looks around with a blank face. She has no idea where we are and why we are here.
I pull out my phone and open the flashlight, the water looks clean and purified. Then, I take out some fish food and I start sprinkling it, and soon as I had expected a large number of small fish gathers together, and once the food finishes they vanish in an instant.
Astonishing as always.
I grin and keep sprinkling the food and they keep following. I completely forget that I am here to show this to Tessa as I start to play by myself living my childhood again.
"How do you know about this place?" Tessa asks in curiosity.
"This, my father would bring me here whenever I get bored," I tell her.
"Have you visited Aspen before?" She asks.
Definitely, how would I know about this place, Tessy?
"Yes, lots of time with Dad… He used to attend the film festival and now thankfully Ann has taken the responsibility for it." I tell her in relief.
I am not a social person, I hate crowded gatherings but I have to bear a dinner function with Ann just for the sake of Tessa. After all, I need to convince Ann to give Tessa back to me.
To let us live normally as husband and wife.
"Why didn't you attend the event?" Tessa asks another stupid question.
"If I had attended it then how would I be able to come here?" I reveal with a grin.
We stayed at the lake for some time and then I drove back to the resort.
It was late when we finally entered our room and I immediately handed her the medicines.
They are necessary.
Tessa starts to strip her clothes in front of me, she looks tired and then crawls into the bed naked. I gulp nervously, I had already controlled myself yesterday but tonight.
Tonight, I won't be able to control my lust especially when she has just striped Infront of me showing her perfect curves.
"I thought you weren't here for sex." Tessa teases me when I envelop her body with my warmth and start placing wet kisses on her neck.
"If my wife strips like this, how am I able to ignore her beauty?" I reply with a grin, and she starts to giggle at my coquettish words.
I turn her to me, staring at her clear face, I compliment her, "You have become more beautiful."
She stops giggling as soon as she notes the deep desire in my eyes for her.
Oh Tessy, how long I had suffered for your soft touch, my sweet wife.
I explore her body gently, taking my time to devour each part of her. I could tell the peace you get after a long-suffering is something that you can't describe in words but feel it fully to the core.
I am happy, peaceful, and blessed.
Have I ever thought in my whole life that one woman, only one woman would be able to change all the perspectives of my life one day?
It would give me all the joy and peace I had been yearning for.
It would give me the strength to speak up and stand for myself.
This one woman would be enough for my whole life?
