31 - She Makes Her Cry

"P'Ling, where are you going?" Orm snakes her arm around my waist and makes me lie down next to her again. I shrug my shoulders while blinking confusedly as I say, "To make your breakfast, baby."

"No, I don't want to eat salad again."

I laugh at her cuteness as I tap her nose. "What do you want, then? Just tell me."

She smiles affectionately as she buries her head in my chest, wanting me to hug her fully. "I want you, Lingling Kwong."

"Baby, you need to have breakfast, though." I let her settle in my arms as she clung to me like a koala.

"But I want to be next to you."

"Come with me, then."

"But I'm still sleepy. I don't want to move." Chuckling nonstop at her cuteness, I then release her so I can slip away from our bed. As expected, she instantly makes a whining sound but stops when she sees me crouching down beside the bed. "Hop on then, baby. I'd give you a piggyback ride."

"For real?" I never see her waking up this fast as she looks at me with those excited big doe eyes."Yes, baby. I need to do a workout anyway."

Watching her being this happy although she is not a morning person brings a smile to my face as I carry her while she does the cooking. "P'Ling, if you're tired you can put me down, okay?"

"I'm alright, Nong, thank you. You said that for the nth time already." She then giggles and kisses my cheek with the tip of her nose. "I'm just worried about my girlfriend."

Orm proceeds to crack the eggs as she makes a huge omelette for both of us. "P'Ling..."

"Hmm?"

"Do you still love me?" Here we go again.

"Nong..." We stare at each other and her eyes scream that she demands an answer. "I love you always, Nong Orm. I love you the most, you know that, right?"

Mixing the egg yolk, Orm replies in her small voice. "Of course I know, Tee rak. It's just me being a weirdo. Always wonder, always overthinking."

"That's why my brand name is based on you, Nong Orm." I cannot reach her face so I kiss her neck instead. This sweet gesture seems to make her more fond of me.

"How about this? I'd always tell you 'I love you' before sleep and after we wake up. You know I can only say things that I meant, Nong. I want to do that so you can always feel assured of my love for you."

She squeezes her face at the crook of my neck to muffle her scream. I know she is smitten by that. And I am proud, of course. Good job, Ling.

"I love you a thousand times more, P'Ling!"

"And I love you more than this universe, Nong Orm!"

Our cheesy exchange makes our sound of laughter grow even bigger as our puppies surrounding us start to bark excitedly.

"P'Ling, why are you separating the cheese?"

"Nong Orm..." I look at her with an 'Are you serious' expression.

"Yes?" She looks back at me with confusion.

I start to pout as I unconsciously say this in a baby voice, "Why can't Nong Orm remember?"

The panic is evident in her eyes as she can see I am starting to sulk right now. "Wait, P'Ling! Of course, I remember!" She hugs my waist and kisses the side of my head. "You don't like cheese!"

Too late, I am already starting to wail as our puppy Lolo jumps onto my lap and starts to lick my arm to comfort me. "Baby Ling, don't sulk, okay?" Orm takes Lolo and puts it beside her face so they are both looking at me with puppy eyes. "We all love you here, I'm sorry, baby Ling."
