They both somehow finished the 2 layers of the lunchbox. Oscar brought two boxes because he wanted to feed them both to Victoria. But in the end, he had to eat one. Still, he was glad he brought. If they eat from one, it would be too less for Victoria. That's what he thought.
Oscar gave her water and later drank it too. Now only 3 minutes remained. Victoria thought they were done with but Oscar suddenly took out something else. It was cold coffee.
" This is cold coffee. You must be tired after this all. I know you like it. Drink it as you greet the guests and make sure to take a rest if you feel weak. Promise me, okay?!"
Oscar had become very particular about her health. He was always worried about her health. Even though she recovered, he treated her like a porcelain doll. Skipping food was a big no for him. He wouldn't let her be careless about it. It was all because of that incident. It was a trauma for him. For all the time she was unconscious, he wouldn't even want to recall that memory. That was a really bad memory for him.
Victoria held his face in her palms and replied while gazing at him lovingly.
" I promise. Don't worry. I won't leave you again." Saying that she kissed him on the forehead. Then she looked at him for a while and kissed his right eye. Oscar's eyes blinked. And before he knew it, she kissed him on the lips. It was very gentle. It was like she was showing him how she felt at that moment.
They were so engrossed in their own world that they forget everything. All they felt from each other was their love. And then, when they felt inseparable, a sudden knock shook them awake.
" Sis! Brother-in-law! Come out quick or you'll be caught!"
Victoria was stunned as she pulled herself apart. Oscar was also surprised. They took three seconds to understand what just happened. In a somewhat confused state, they got up.
Victoria walked to the door. Oscar felt like stopping her but knew they didn't have any option. Victoria was just about to turn the doorknob when she suddenly turned around and run to hug him. Oscar quickly cached her in his arms. He tightly held her in his arms.
They stayed like that for five minutes and it took them all their self-control to pull apart. Victoria went away without looking back because she knew she won't be able to leave if she looked at him.
Oscar kept gazing at her until she was out of his sight. He was already missing her. They both knew they had a week that's will keep them apart. It was a beautiful pain to wait for this week but they were willing. Just to give each other the best of all.
Victoria met up with Mike. As they walked back, Victoria smiled warmly at him and said.
" Thanks, Brother."
Mike grinned and said.
" Hehe! That's what I am here for. But it's only this once!"
Asahi arrived on the first flight. He instantly hugged Oscar and sincerely congratulated him. He knew that Oscar always missed something and he was lost or sad. But now seeing Oscar being with the vibe of a groom, he was happy. He wanted to be there for his friend's most important day.
Asahi had neck-length hair and a fair complexion. His hair was straight and it suited him perfectly. He was a brunette with hazel-coloured eyes. He was quite handsome. He had that oriental vibes in him. As he studied abroad for a few years, he was good at English and mixed up easily.
Oscar also met with Levi. Alice just greeted him but didn't say much. They congratulated him. Oscar warmly invited them. They had a lot to catch up on. Oscar also wanted to ask him what he was up to but they were busy at the moment.
He also met with his foreign friends. He travelled before and made some friends. He invited them all.
By a strange coincidence, both of them had no grandparents. Neither paternal nor maternal.
Just like that, it was the time for the last flight. Most of the other guests left for the hotel while some were in the process.
Victoria's family sat down tiredly as they waited for the last flight to arrive. It was the same situation on Oscar's side. But the youngsters made sure to let their parents eat and take a rest occasionally. The parents also cooperated because none of them wanted to faint on such a pleasant occasion. Moreover, Mike and Oscar occasionally brought fruit juices for everyone. So that they can drink while in the midst of this all.
" Mom and Dad, please don't overexert yourselves. You are the most important people to me. I don't want my parents to fall sick and not enjoy my wedding. Please take care of yourselves." Victoria told them as she sat.
" Yeah, we know. Don't worry. We'll always be there for you." Wick smiled warmly and said.
" Yes. And you also take care. You look quite tired yourself."
" Yes, Mom."
Just then, Mike sat down and sighed tiredly. Victoria looked at him and felt warm in her heart. She grabbed the cold mango juice and gave it to him.
" Here drink this."
Mike instantly gulped down half of it.
" Thank you, Sis! Gosh! My legs are killings me. Even though it's fun, I just realised how tiring it's to get married. I am reconsidering marrying!" He joked.
" Do you want to die?" Wick scolded. Victoria and Sia laughed. They were just relaxing. However, in the middle of this all, Victoria kept looking at the entrance with a bit sad face.
On the other side, Oscar also made sure his parents were well-rested. He also made them eat. Everyone was very tired after the long day. It was almost Six pm and the last flight would arrive anytime soon. He kept peaking at Victoria. When he noticed her sad gaze, he was worried and wanted to ask what was going on. He excused himself and called her.
