Angela's POV

"Erish, you never asked me how I fell in love with you?" I'm still hugging him and resting my head on his bare chest. We both were in completely comfortable positions. From this position I can hear his fast heart beat perfectly.

I guessed my question made him smile but his eyes lost their spark for a moment and I captured it. He again widely smiled towards me. However, it's not as wide as before. Am I thinking wrongly? I shake my thoughts the next second.

As I watch him ready to speak.

"I think in our first meeting…" He teasingly answered but my mouth opened wide with amazement.

I immediately raised my head and broke our hugs.

"Ohh! Come on Erish! We were children at that time, how can I fall in love with you? When I don't even know about love at that age?" I pouted my lips and glared at him. I mean we were children. And it's not a movie, where children fall in love.

    Angela's POV"Erish, Where are we going?" I stopped on my way. As he held my hand and went towards the home entrance direction."It's a surprise. I already told you." Erish smiled."But I can't wait long. Why don't you tell me?" I pouted my lips and asked him with an angry tone. I'm trying many tricks to make him utter the words but he is so stubborn and didn't answer me. "Baby, don't be like that…""You will know," He again repeated the same words no matter what I asked, with his same sexy wink. I don't realize but his wink almost caught my gasped reaction every single damn time and he chuckled.However, this sexy action never let me stop asking him again."But I want to know right now!" I shouted like a child in front of him. While my arms crossed around my chest like stubborn. I'm honestly too curious to know, what the surprise is. "Baby…""Please! It's not going to take long!" I can hear his coaxing voice which makes me want to chuckle but I stop myself from doing that."Alright

However, I just chuckled and didn't pull down my hands from her eyes which I wrapped around her. "Baby, this is the last time, I promise!" I said with coaxing words which made her lips pouting. The cute pout which I wanted to take bites with my lips.'What a silly thought!' I just exclaimed in my mind. But this is her fault to be this cute all the time around me. But deep down I want her to stay like this. Stay like a child. Stay always happy and smile beautifully. I want to be the reason for her smile. She slowly walked step by step while I was just beside her giving her direction. "Erish, I can't wait anymore!" She exclaimed and I laughed. "Trust me! It's just a few steps…" I informed her and she nodded while giving me one of the beautiful smiles. I don't know how to explain what she did to me in just a few days.
