I turned my kitchen into some hotel kitchen preparing the welcoming feast for Adrian. Yesterday he was proved innocent and I want his welcoming party to be perfect. Though they didn’t let me do anything stressful but I could plan it. Right? I had invited Mr and Mrs Anderson, Emilia and her boyfriend because he had helped a lot in the case investigation, Emma and Aaron and Julie too because if not for her we would have lost the case. And lastly I had also invited Lauren.
“Martha are you done with the chicken seasoning”
“Yes darling I have done it. In fact it is now being baked”
I nodded and checked the girl who was called to help Martha in the kitchen. She was appointed to made dessert and she was best in her work. Chicken Parmesan Casserole, Chicken Tamale pie, BBQ chicken stuffed sweet potatoes meatloaves, garlic bread and baked Ravioli. For dessert we had chiffon pie and what not. It would take a whole day to list the dishes.You know what Adrian said looking at all these dishes_
“Baby don’t you think it is too much”
He had a nervous expression put on which made me laugh.“No baby. It is enough for the dinner tonight”
He nodded still abstruse with all the feast. But I know what I am doing this is to celebrate his return. And also the fact that Larissa is finally behind the bars for all the wrongs she did to her own kids and their loved ones.I checked everything for thousandth time before going upstairs to get ready for the night. Adrian was already done showering but he was walking around in towel making me gulp nervously. His body looked so good that I used a physical power to push myself to bathroom. I took a good bath and the wrapped myself in towel and my hair in another towel before coming out.
I couldn’t hide the disappointment when I saw Adrian all dressed up but I pushed it aside and began to blow dry my hair and put on makeup. When I was done I took out the rose gold satin dress and put it on. Adrian was matching his tie with my dress while his suit was black with white button down.
“Shall we”
He asked putting forward the crook of his elbow. I smiled and linked my arm with his and we both walked downstairs, where our family had gathered.“Hello everyone”
They all greeted me and pulled Adrian for hugs one by one. They all expressed their joy on his return. Mr and Mrs Anderson had brought gifts for Adora which were too cute. We all settled on the dining table to start the dinner. We all made a toast for this new start and started dinner. Everyone else was enjoying the wine while I was stuck with water and fruit juices. Though not complaining.The dinner was so good with jokes, laughter, good memories and joy. Everyone had smiles which reached their eyes and I couldn’t help but smile more. Emma then dd that couple dance thing. Music was played, lights were dimmed and everyone paired for dance. Though Julie didn’t have a partner she was not sad and I could share one dance. She danced with Adrian for one dance when I rested me sore feet. And Adrian complained whole night for dancing with her to which I gave him cold shoulder.
And guys this was the first time I saw Mr and Mrs Anderson so carefree and laughing freely, like they had no care of the world. They looked like a happy couple with one big happy family. Today I noticed how close they are to Aaron like their own son. I smiled fondly at their happy faces and slightly caressed my bump where Adora was having her own small party.
“I love you”
Adrian whispered in my ear from behind. I turned around and mumbled the same to him before pulling his lips in a kiss. His soft lips melted against mine moving in a perfect harmony. I licked his lips tasting him like it is my first time. His hands landed on my bump and I pulled him closer.“Guys get a room”
Aaron yelled making us break apart. I blushed at the audience while Adrian just smirked at them. They all laughed at us and then involved in their own activities. This family moment was best and I can’t help but fall in love with them a little more. The night soon grew old and they all retired to their homes leaving Adrian and I alone. We freshened up ad laid on bed on our sides facing each other.
