The hotel team took our luggages as soon as we landed from the helicopter. And we got into a buggy a that would lead us to the hotel.
Hamdan apparently had sudden change of mood and arranged for our honeymoon to be at Seychelles.

The reason being he did not want anyone at the palace to follow us around. But there were just few people including Uncle Saeed. He mentioned there were 6 other security from the Zabeel Palace. Hamdan didn't like being followed everywhere. I mean who would. And this guy had way too many people around as long as he was alive. I thought by now he would have been used to all this. He asked the buggy driver to stop the buggy and offered us to walk till the resort reception.

He just said this, "Given a choice. Freedom is something I will always choose. Even if I find it in the silliest of the things. That's why I married you."

My confused face amused him. I was being trained to have poker face when needed and I wasn't really going any where near it. In fact I was getting worse.

He ran a thumb across my cheek,"you find happiness and love in little things and you don't give a damn what others think of you when you enjoy it. That is freedom. At least for me. And it's been rare in my case. So I hold these kind of people close to me."

"but everyone is like that in my family, friends or whoever I've seen!", I answer still a little confused.

He puts his arm around my shoulder pulling me closer to him. As he kisses my head. I bask in the essence of him. Ocean breeze, slightly woody and lingering musk scent. Immediately it calms me down.

" Oh my dear sweet innocent wife! Not everyone is that way. Maybe you are lucky or Allah blessed you with such people. Or what I believe is that you always see best and good in everyone. Unfortunately people aren't that way.", he takes a deep breath and gazes ahead as we walk.

Confused as to why the sudden change of mood," why would you say that?! Everyone enjoys little things even silly things... Even snotty asses. Everyone is vulnerable. Aren't they!?", I answer but more like a question to myself.

He turns to me and stares with an inscrutable expression for a moment. He smiles the same warm smile he has specifically for me." you say that because you got to live the life my parents struggled to give their children."

"huh?", I didn't want that to come out loud and sound like some bone head. Immediately realizing what he meant.

An Ordinary blending in the background life.

I gasp lightly, whilst he just smiles at me. "Remember Aairah, I come with baggages. My life comes with baggages. You will see things you won't like. You will have to do things you don't like.... But do remember this... You have me... You have nothing to be afraid of... Even yourself."

My chest filled with love for him and my eyes welled up a little," we will be stupid, we be silly, we will be childish, we will love each other no matter what. "

" together. "

I rise on my tiptoes," until the very end. "

I seal this by planting a kiss on his lips. As always Firm, warm, gentle and full of love. But something else was added to this... This time it was hope. Hope for a life filled with love.

We had gotten to a point so fast that it seemed unreal. We didn't have to say those clichéd 3 words. We just had to look at each other and feel it. And that was amazing. People usually felt this much ahead in a relationship. But this felt different and special.

OK people... I will annoy you all till every one of you comments.... So far how was it? How is the relationship developing... Fast medium slow too slow etc. Let me know.... Right here. 😚😝 Comment.
