"Amyra"
His deep voice reached me and slowly, I turned around. My eyes locked with his. His gaze was sharp yet warm, a perfect balance of confidence and intrigue.
"Are you really okay with this marriage?" He asked. I looked at him for a while, thinking whether to tell him or not. I closed my eyes before saying, "I am doing this only for my parents'happiness. If they are happy, then I am. After whatever happened to me, Love no longer holds meaning for me—I’ve lost all faith in it."
His brows furrowed. "Would you mind explaining that?" He asked in a polite tone. "I mean, I won't be able to give you the love you want or the love you deserve." I answered. He smiled as he said, "I don't know whether I deserve your love or not but, I will dedicate every part of myself to making you feel cherished. From now on until the rest of our lives, my heart is yours, and I will hold nothing back."
A wave of warmth washed over me, as his words made my heart flutter. My eyes softened, as unshed tears gathered in them. He came closer, the space between us vanishing until we were on the verge of touching.
His gaze holds mine, as I lost into them. With a soft tug, he pulled a strand of my hair and tucked it behind my ear, his touch sending a shiver down my spine as he slowly said "I love you, Amyra."
My heart skipped a beat as I wasn't ready for this. Did I hear it right? I kept staring at him as if trying to find the answer for an unspoken question. "You don't have to tell me anything right now, baby. Take your time. I will be waiting for you." Smiling, he kissed my forehead. A soft warmth spreads through me, like a quiet reassurance settling deep in my chest. I felt safe. Cherished. Held in a way that words can’t quite capture.He then, smiled as he slowly stepped back and went back inside the house, leaving me restless.
Wait. Did he just call me baby!?
