"I hope you like it, roses suits you very well," says the woman, cautiously and swiftly placed a kiss on the girl's cheek closer to the lips.
The girl wanted to scream in happiness, she wants to shout that the woman beside her was heirs. Her urge to tell it to everyone but the complication is blocking their way to freedom they hoped-for, her reliance is much more bigger than her scepticism.
"I like it, I love it," she uttered and delicately traced the firm yet soft petals of a flowers.
After taking the delicious foods, everyone gathered at the pool area of their house as her friends asked for to band to play on her birthday. Cocktails, wine and different kinds of alcoholic beverages were served by the hired waiters and waitresses.
The lead singer of the band chose the song lowkey to sing it. They exchanged a knowing look and smile afterwards. Margaret and Catherine saw it and they squealed silently as the two secret lovers were being passionately cute.
The night was full of fun until the very last part of celebration. The girl thanked every guests and bid them a good night as the evening was getting deeper.
Irene asked Alona if she could bring the girl to her house as she has a present for her. She didn't let the other older woman to be suspicious about them. Not now, and she doesn't know when.
As soon as the girl opened the woman's house door, she saw the table with candlelight on top across the sala through the pool area. Her mouth slightly swung in surprise.
"You did all of this?" asked the girl turning at the woman and saw her smiling.
"I asked my organizer to take care all of this while we were in your house, do you like it?" says the woman as she put her hand on the girl's back and the other was on her pocket.
"It's beautiful, I love it..thank you," she almost whispered causing the woman to smile.
The woman took a matte small box and opened it, "is that for me?" the girl asked.
"Uh- huh, let me wear it to you," she took the ring with a jewel on top.
"It's a promise ring, and I want you to keep it no matter what happen in our future," whispered the woman and caressed her hand.
"You're full of surprises tonight, thank you for all of these. I do appreciate it, really." she says almost in tears.
"All for you, my love," says the woman and embraced the girl's small body.
They talked about random stuffs while eating and drinking at the pool area. The cold and silent night made it more romantic for the two lovers.
The woman couldn't remove her stare at the girl beside her. She gulped when she realized what's running on her mind. Their feet were relaxingly soaking at the crystal pool water.
"It's quite cold, what if we swim tonight? It'll ease our nerves.." suggested the girl and met ger gaze. Her face was already reddish cause of the alcohol she drunk.
"We might catch a cold, so no," says the woman.
"It'll be fun, let's go," before the woman could protest the girl already jumped in the water making a small splash. Irene playfully rolled her eyes.
The girl swam start from where she is standing and went at the other side of the pool, "see, it isn't that cold," she smirk.
"Get back here," says the woman and took a sip on her wine, ignoring the strange feeling in her chest. She thought that maybe it was just an effect of mixed alcohol she'd take.
