CAELUM

CHAPTER 15

SEHUN'S POV:

As today is a day off for me, I plan to spend it with Zyanya. I've been continuously modelling for top brands which is a lot tiring. Flashing lights, clicking sounds, makeup, posing and many more. Others are busy and Jongin is off for his shoot for Gucci. I smile seeing Zyanya wiping her hair and dressed up in a more casual way. She is ethereal and that can't be denied. But the best part is she is understanding as well.  Slowly getting up from the bed and I make my way towards her without making a sound. I hug her from behind and rest my arms on her shoulder. *Why does she look so beautiful in wet hair*.

I hug her waist and rest my head on her shoulder. "I love you". "I love you too". I smile. She pouts. "Why is my princess pouting hmm". "You said we are going somewhere but you still didn't tell me the name of the place". I chuckle. "Impatient much". "Yes, very much". I turn her around in my arms. "It's a surprise baby". She sulks. I kiss her gently on her forehead. "You're too cute when you sulk". "Whatever". I lift her and put her on the bed. She doesn't look at me. "I've got something for you". Her eyes sparkle in excitement. "What's it". I peck her lips. "This". She smiles "I can never be mad or sulk Infront of you right?".

I pull her up and place a sweet kiss on her lips. "Absolutely right". She giggles and I smile. "I'll wear my heels and then we can go alright?". "Alright". She wore her heels and the next moment she is in my arms. No magic involved. I lift her up in my arms. "Why do you always carry me ". "Cuz, I want to". I take her to my car, make her sit inside and fasten her seatbelt. Getting inside the car and fastening my seatbelt, I hold her hand while the other hand handles the steering. And we are off to our mini-date.

I take her to a beachside as she always wanted to watch the sunrise and sunset while sitting on the beach. Always being inside the papers, eyes stuck to the computer screen and mind running around dimensions of room and colours, she does need and also deserves a break. I hope she likes this small surprise". *I'll make your everyday nothing but a happy dream*

NAOMI'S POV:

It's 3:00 pm. As the head and the top-tier directors will be attending, so I'm a bit nervous about it. I fidget with my fingers when Baekhyun comes and holds my hand calming me down. "You nervous". "Yeah, I don't know how will I present it". Our hands intertwine and his thumb caresses the top of my hand. "I understand. Don't worry, you'll do great." I scoff "Easy for you to say Baekhyun, whether you prepare or not you rock it". He looks down and sighs.  I feel bad. "I didn't mean to hurt you or be that rude". "Yeah sure, you didn't".

I sense the sarcasm in his words. Gosh, my mouth. I want to sew it so bad that it doesn't open. "Baek, I really mean it, I didn't mean to be rude". "Just stop it please. Doesn't matter Naomi, the meeting starts in 1 hr. and I'll go check the arrangements for the meeting". He gets up but doesn't leave his grip. Was I that rude? "Where are the files". "O-on the table". He takes and holds them." I'm sorry". "It's not needed Naomi. Sorry's are precious and what you said is true. it's easy for me".

Looking down and sniffling quietly, I suddenly left out an audible sob. Quickly wiping my tears, I try to remove my hand from his grip instead I get pulled into a warm embrace. I couldn't control my tears and they flow. He tightens the hug and caresses my hair. I literally am soaking his shirt from my tears. He cups my face in his hands "Naomi why are you crying, are you hurt, did something happen". "I-I-I didn't mean to hurt you Baekhyun, I really didn't. I'm sorry". He gently wipes my tear strained face. "You really thought you hurt me hmm". I nod looking down. Lifting my chin up gently he smiles.

"I wasn't hurt in any way Naomi; I was just messing around with you". He says while wiping the remaining tears. "If not hurt then you're mad at me". He chuckles softly and hugs me. "I'm neither mad nor hurt, alright, now stop crying hmm". His voice calms me down slowly. "By the way, I saw a pretty ghost ". "Huh, a pretty ghost". "Yeah, and you know who's that". "I don't know". "I'll show". He takes his phone. "Look at the camera". I look at the camera screen and my eyes go wide. Dang the eyeliner is all smudged. NOOOOOOOO.

"Well, she is pretty though, I should have married her instead". I hit him playfully. He laughs and holds his arm as if it's hurt. "Ouch, that hurt". "Sure, it did... Who stops you from marrying her". "There is someone who I adore a lot. I can't leave her and that person is you". I smile "Too much". He chuckles and I start laughing softly. "Go wash your face". "I stained your shirt right". "That's not a problem at all. I know how to cover it". He winks and I smile softly. "Come directly to the meeting room alright". "Alright". "And yeah, you'll do awesome, trust me". "Thanks, and I trust you". He pinches my cheek and leaves the room. *What do I do with him*.

Our meeting goes on and I become confident when he smiles with confidence. Explaining all the reports, reviews and designs, we didn't know how the time passed and it's 7:00 pm. The designs captured everyone's interest and liking. Baekhyun leads them out of the meeting room and I arrange all the designs and files when I hear claps. I look up and find Baekhyun in all smiles and also proudness visible on his face. "You were worried for no reason Naomi, see how good you did". "Hmm, Thanks to you". "You're welcome, so should we go". I smile "Yeah". Another memory added to our books of memories.

CHAPTER 15 published. Ah ha..... Sehun... what's going on your mind boy? *wink wink*. Anyways keeping my questions aside, what do you guys think that he'll do rather than watching sunrise and sunset. Let me know in the comments. Also, I love reading your comments. Thanks for them. Hope you're enjoying the ff and hope you enjoyed reading this chap as well. Hehe

I updated this chapter early enough because it's Diwali here. It's a grand festival here in India. This is a festival of lights as it symbolises the inner light that protects from darkness to spread. The actual meaning of Deepawali is a row of clay lights. Just like Dusshera, it also is celebrated as it symbolises the victory of good over evil.

Usually crackers light up the sky on the day of Diwali or even a few days before Diwali. But it's s small request to my readers. If you're from any part of India, please don't burst crackers or burst a minimum amount of them as not everyone is fine with crackers. Animals, birds, small creatures residing on this Earth should not be exposed to the harmful toxins or air that crackers release every time we burn it.

As it's a festival of light, let everyone enjoy it. Including our surroundings. Let's not bring darkness into their lives on the day of lights. Let's be responsible and celebrate a happy and safe Diwali. Let's be considerate for all of them and enjoy this beautiful occasion by spreading smiles and lights into the lives around us. Let's celebrate a green and eco-friendly Diwali.

Having said that, please do take care of yourself and do not indulge in any mischief whatsoever as it's Diwali. Be a responsible person and make sure to take care of your surroundings. Do stay hydrated and eat a lot of tasty delicacies. If you're having holidays, give your body some good rest that it deserves. Not only Indian readers but to all the readers of this book regardless of which country you belong to.

I'll be taking my leave now. That's it for today. Will meet you all on Saturday. This is your author signing off for today.

With love,

Nikki :))))
