The beginning of forever

43 - Something is wrong

Becky beamed back at me, her eyes filled with affection. "Hey, you know I've got nothing to hide from you," she replied, her tone soft and reassuring, before leaning in to steal a quick kiss.

Surprised by her sudden sweetness, I couldn't help but return the affection, savoring the moment. As we parted, I found myself pulling her back for another kiss, unable to resist the magnetic pull between us. It was a brief but passionate exchange, leaving us both breathless and grinning like fools.

When we finally pulled away, Becky giggled, her laughter like music to my ears. "Phew! That was something... well... breathtaking," she teased, her eyes twinkling mischievously, and I couldn't help but laugh along with her, feeling lighter than air.

Lost in the moment, I wrapped my arms around Becky, pulling her close as we continued to laugh together. It felt like nothing else in the world mattered in that instant—just the two of us, wrapped up in our own little bubble of happiness.

As we strolled through the mall, hand in hand, I couldn't shake the feeling of gratitude for having Becky by my side. Despite the ups and downs, her unwavering love and support were a constant source of strength for me.

"Hey, you hungry?" I asked, breaking the comfortable silence between us. "I could really go for some ice cream right about now."

Becky's eyes lit up at the mention of ice cream, and she nodded enthusiastically. "Oh, absolutely! Let's go find the nearest ice cream store," she replied, her excitement contagious.

Becky's POV

As I indulged in my ice cream, I felt Freen's gaze fixated on me. It's a familiar sensation—I've come to recognize it even before I open my eyes in the morning, especially when she wakes up before me, and it always brings a smile to me.

I lifted my gaze to her and I was right she's staring at me. "Do I have an ice cream on my face?" I asked her as I took some tissue from the side.

"Ugh! No.. Nothing" she said startled with my question.

"Hmmm then why were you staring at me. Do you find me beautiful, baby?" I winked at my wife to tease her.

She chuckled, "I always find you beautiful my love! That and..." she took a pause and I just gesture for her to continue.

"That and I was thinking...about what Billy said. Babe what he said was actually true, he can give you a child." She looked at me, her expression serious

"Maybe if you have married him over me, it would be easier to have kids" Freen explained

My spoon hovered midway to my mouth, her words hanging heavy in the air. "Wait, hold on a second," I interjected, trying to wrap my head around what she was saying. "Are you seriously considering his words?"

Before she could answer, I jumped in. "Listen, first I really.... really... appreciate that you could now talk your thoughts to me, but I want you to listen. And listen very carefully" I emphasized

"He may have the penis to impregnate any woman, but Billy is not you, no one is. And you, my dear wife is the only one best suited for me." I declared

Freen's expression softened as she listened to my words, her eyes meeting mine with a mixture of relief and gratitude.

"Is... is that what you told him?" Freen asked with an awkward smile.

I chuckled, finding her reaction adorable. "Nope, not exactly," I replied, enjoying the opportunity to tease her. "I told him I'd consider it... you know, that he can give me a day or two so I could pack my things and leave you."
