Waking up in the beautiful morning of California is definitely the most amazing view that the citizens of the city can say. For Melinda and her family, on a Wednesday, is definitely a non-stop trailer. Ever since last week, the schedule of mama Louisa and Howard has become busier than they could ever imagine and on top of that, mama Louisa had to cook for the family so to help her mother nowadays, was Melinda. Since she has been watching her mother prepared a special meal for the family, it was that time to stand it up and prepare a meal too. So arriving home with a happy mood yesterday, she decided to do make chicken potato with yellow rice and salad. After cutting and tempering the chicken, she washed the rice with running water, and prepared a separate pot with water, oil and salt.

While she was still by the kitchen with her uniform on, the busy parents were arriving, showing that they are exhausted and tired. The first person to admire what he saw, was her father and he said, "Well good afternoon, my dear Melly, how are you?" Still chopping tomato, onion, green peas and sliced carrot into a bowl, Melinda said, "Hi, dear Daddy, I am doing good thanks, just preparing some food for you guys, knowing that you guys are exhausted and tired. Speaking of work how was work today?" Going directly to the bathroom, Mama Louisa answered her, saying, "Yes, my dear, our day was busier than ever. We have received many clients with different cases and we could communicate and give them certain medication for that specific diagnose. So right now, we are hungry and tired." Still talking and telling them stories, she continued her cooking while she was on her uniform. After 30 minutes of checking and preparing the salad, she excused herself and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

After that special moment of intimacy between Mel and me by the truck yesterday, I came home with a big smile and could not stop thinking how sweet and soft her lips were, I was so divine with that! Then right after, the smile she gave me and giving me the energy to do it again, it was so attractive. Greeted by mother and daddy and the twins, my mother asked, "Well someone looks really happy and when I mean happy, I am referring how you are always delighted when you leave the house and come home from school. Oh! I know who is making my son smile! Is it our dear Melinda, son?" Smiling and giving the obvious smirk, I said, "Yes dear mother, it is Melinda. It is just something about her that makes me want to know her more. I asked her out again, but this time, during our project to the Museum, just us two!" Seeing how I was smiling much more widely than ever done for someone, my daddy said, "Ah son, this gal has got you in a special spell and inside it; your feelings go flying and becomes alive. I know that feeling. Tell me something, how did you think I meet your mother? I fell in love with her spirit, her friendship and stunning beauty until today. She is more beautiful every day and the more I am with her, the more I recall that moment I laid eyes on her." Hearing my father say that about my mother, I immediately pictured myself with Melinda right now, holding her and touching her cheeks and so many more.

"The best thing that happened to me today, dad was that I kissed her and that instantly feeling rushed through me, like it finally happened. All the thoughts of wanting to wait until the right time and became proof. That I am truly in love with her and she is the one for me." I am not sure if I was the only one that noticed something weird after saying that, but then, all eyes were on me, as if my mother, father and Jake were looking at me. Thinking they were going to shout or something, they actually came to me and hugged me. The first thing my brother said after the huge silence, was, "Do not break her heart and love and respect her in everything. Be her best friend and now that you have kissed her, do not take a further step than that! You know what I mean!"

After a successful supper that I have prepared for the family, my mother and I decided to wash the dishes. As she was cleaning and I was rinsing and drying them, mother noticed that I was smiling so she asked, "Okay, missy, something happened and you are not saying anything. It  authored all over your face and your smile is blushing hard! Spit it out!" Looking at me super serious in a joking manner, I said, "The reason I am happy is because of that one and one date he has suggested to me and said I can give him a answer when I am ready to give out, whenever, which i said yes. Another thing is... Mike kissed me today and amazed on how it felt like. I guess Mom, what I am trying to say is I am falling in love with him. He is so special and important to me." When I said that, mother just looked at me and told me to be careful and  should not rush into things, okay, like the way you people have been friends since you have started, try to maintain that level on where you stand. Then she added, "You know what is funny, I like the boy too whenever he is around and how is helping us by dropping you and your brother. I like that side of him. In addition, on how he looks at you is so hard to  look away. He makes it very obvious!" We ended our conversation just on laughing about Mike on how he first introduced until now. 

Love is something beautiful between our favorite couple, right. Cannot wait it is in store for them!
