Still don't know my name

Chapter 19

LINA

My dream is now opened, holy hell. Chucky's is now fully functional. I baked some dishes in the morning before the opening, Rosie is already placed behind the counter and I will be going there soon, but first let me recover from this big fiasco I just did. I kissed Zee in front of dozens of people. She is blushing and bit embarrassed. God, I get it, I am too. I am not at all content with PDA. But for Zee anything. She want to win against her parents, so be it.

I approached Bran and Jacque; they are with Liam and Sophia.

"So, what do you guys think?" I asked.

Jacque enveloped me in a bear hug and kissed my forehead and said, "I always knew Lina, baking is your passion and now this Wow, I am in awe."

"This just feels so surreal, but seeing you and Zee happy, I am happy too." Bran said.

"Thank you both of you, it means a lot." I spoke.

"Congratulations." Liam and Sophia both spoke in unison. I nodded a thankyou and slipped behind the counter. I heard the bell on the front door chimed when I saw two boys from our college itself approaching the counter.

"Congratulations, this looks amazing." One of the boys said.

"Thank you, what would you like?" I asked.

"Can I have a cappuccino and a lemon tard muffin." First boy said.

"And for me just an expresso." Second one said.

"Coming right up." I asked Rosie to prepare the coffee and I packed my first order. It still feels dream to me. I glanced at the audience and they are grinning like maniacs. Ahh, I love them all.

I served the first order and took a deep breath. They sat on one of the booths and enjoyed their delish goods, one of the boys moaned. After 10 minutes, they approached the counter and said, "That muffin was JUST WOW, oh my god how did you prepared that. Can I have the recipe or something. Never mind I can't nail that perfection in this lifetime. You've got yourself a regular and that coffee was delicious. My heart is gratified, I feel floating to the cloud 9.

Zee cheered from the corner and I started grinning. She chuckled and blew a kiss my way, that small but such an affectionate gesture melt my heart.

We reached home after seven, I closed the bakery and bid goodbye to Rosie, and my dad and Zee's parents. Bran and everyone already left around noon but Zee and our parents insisted on staying on my first day. The first day was a success dare I say. More and more college students rushing in and damn the baked goods were the hot sale topic in the neighbourhood. Everyone loved each and every of my creation.

As we reached our room, I grabbed Zee's arm and hugged her, "Thank you for today, it was amazing." I spoke.

"I didn't do anything; it was all you. You were amazing out there; my jaw fell on the floor, baby. All I wanted to do was, spread your legs on the counter and eat you out." She chuckled.

"Gosh, sweet bean you are horny all the time." I teased. She blushed and hugged me tight; I loosen the grip and looked her in her green trails and asked.

"Where is my gift?"

"It is in my phone, wait a sec, there, hot mess." This is a new nick name and I absolutely love it. I blushed lightly and nodded, she chuckled and withdrew her phone from her pocket and connected the Bluetooth and pulled me with her to dance. I haven't heard of this song and how can this be my gift?

"What is it, Zee?" I asked.

She looks nervous and shy, I tipped her chin and stared her in her eyes and kissed the tip of her nose, "Sweet bean."

"This is the song; I wrote for you. I know I am not a great songwriter but it is all the feeling I poured in some lines on the day I realized I love you so fucking much, it hurts. It hurts so bad, all I want is you, all the fucking time." She spoke.

I kissed her lips fiercely, pouring my soul in her body, how the hell I got this beautiful creature with me. I don't deserve her.

The song is so sweet and soft, it melted me. The lyrics are so pure, I want my Zee to know, I love her immensely too. I kissed her lips and rested my head near her neck and inhaled her scent.

'Everything I ever wanted, it was right in front of me,

I drew the courage, kissed your lips, it sealed you with me.'

I backed up from her when the song ended, my eyes are blurry with tears in them.

"It is the most thoughtful gift I have ever received, such a personal touch to it, it makes me want to drown in the deep sea and never come back." Zee wiped a tear from my eyes and kissed where the tears dropped.

"No, honey. You don't get to drown, it's boring, let's dance." She unplugged her phone, putting on the vinyl of OUR SONG and we are drowning in the beats. This is my home, right in her arms, swaying our hips to our song and drifting to sweet hereafter.

Next few weeks were crazily busy, waking up before the sun and then going to the café, yeah, I am more calling it a café. Cause the coffee is as much popular as baked goods at Chucky's. I need to bake all the items before seven and reach college. I become so tired by eight, all I want to do is sleep.

As Zee is graduated, she always tries to accompany me in the morning, as she loves to watch me while I bake. This heavy schedule making me tired, so exhausted, at home all I want to do is snuggle to Zee and sleep. As Zee don't need to go to college and she has completed her therapy treatment, she is singing. She is singing beautifully. I still help composing some songs, but mostly she choose Taylor Swift's song. I am so proud of her, it's like my dreams are coming true with double force. My love of music and my love of baking. Zee has performed, some of her pieces at café and people went bonkers over it. Some of the indie producers and composers, and songwriters picked up on Zee to sing their songs, when one of the videos I took of her at the café went viral and people couldn't stop celebrating her.

I reached home after an exhausting day at café and when I opened the door to our room, Zee is sitting on the bed, with a keyboard and writing pad pillared all over. She is making her concentration face, where her tongue is popped out and a deep furrow in her brows. I love her concentration face. I moved further, when he noticed me approaching, he smiled a warm smile, my legs started shaking. I kissed his forehead and attacked him with my tongue, I slid the keyboard on the floor and stacked the papers on the nightstand and dropped my bag on the floor with the keyboard.

"You smell of strawberries, I fucking love strawberries. I want to eat you, baby." Zee said.

"Don't bother, I am going to eat you tonight, I am famished." I chuckled and spread her legs wide.

We spend the whole day in our bed, lazily and making love, smelling like sex.

During the month of September, it is almost a year since me and Zee got together and this month is made more special when Zee got the biggest gig of all time. She is asked to join a popular band as lead singer as their singer left due to health troubles. After so many therapy sessions, Zee still has a little trouble when it comes to group, she just need a little assurance that no matter what, I am still going to be there for her.

"Sweet bean, are you okay? Isn't it great that Sexy Bridge gave you opportunity to join their band. They could have chosen literally anyone but no they chose you, because you are the best, you are the most amazing singer with sugary voice. I may sound bias or something but it is true. I love you and I know you will rock their band." I encouraged.

"You always try to encourage me, sweetheart. I love you more, so much more. Yes, I think I can do it, I made so much progress past few months, I don't get much anxious as I used to get. So, this might be progress. I talk to Dr Styles whenever I feel down, so there it is sorted.
