Hello!! I'm back after a week. Sorry for the late update everyone. Don't know if you'll like this chapter but I really hope you do!❤️

"Wake up,"
"Baby wake up," you stretched your body and your eyes fluttered open.
"5 more minutes," you hugged Joshua and mumbled into his neck.
You hugged his bare body, feeling comfortable being in his arms.
You moved slightly and Joshua winced because you brushed against his shoulder.
"Ow," you opened your eyes when he yelped and saw a bruise on his left shoulder.
"What is this?" Your fingers slowly touch the bruise.
"You did this last night," he pecks your nose and you tried to remember what actually happens when you did, you blushed.
"Right," you can't meet his gaze and you are very embarrassed.
"Why is your face red?" He started laughing at you.
"Nothing,"
"You're embarrassed with me? Come on it's not our first time," he cupped your cheeks and smirks at you.
"I know, but last night was different,"
It's true. You and Joshua never did something like that and you're too embarrassed to look at him.
It was silence for a few seconds and you were just staring blankly at Joshua's chest, still feeling embarrassed.
"Babe," you hummed and look up at Joshua's face. He paused before continuing.
"Let's go on a short holiday," you quirked your eyebrow.
You gave yourself a thought and nodded.
"Sure, why not, also Sophea's big enough to travel," you agreed to him and his face was hesitant to reply.
"No, I mean just-the both of us?"
"That's sudden," you frowned why he didn't want to bring Sophea.
"Please, I miss spending time with you alone,"
He pouts trying to make you agree.
You drew circles on his chest and look up to him.
"But who will take care of her?" He takes your hand and kissed it.
"I already called your mom and she didn't mind watching her for a few days,"
"Please baby," you were hesitant to agree but you can't say no to pouting Joshua.
"Okay fine,"
He smiled and immediately sit up and want to get off the bed.
"Where are you going?" He smiled.
"Packing, come on our flight is in 5 hours," your eyes widened when he laughed.
"You're joking right?" You smiled knowing he's lying to you.
He bends over to you and whispered into your ear.
"I wish I am. Pack some sexy clothes for me okay?"

"You could've told me 1 hour before the flight," you said to Joshua who's beside you driving to your mom's house to drop Sophea.
"I should've done that, it will be interesting to see you how you'll get panic," he laughed and pinched your cheeks.
"Do that and I won't sleep in your room for a month," you dared him.
"Can you even last for a night without me beside you?" He raised his eyebrows and smirks.
"I lasted two years," you mumbled not loud enough for him to hear.
"What was that?" you shook your head.
"Nothing,"
"Fine, I'm sorry, I wanted to make it a surprise for you," he grabs your hand and intertwined it with his.
Your lips formed a thin smile.
"Look, she knows that we're leaving her," you look at Sophea who's holding you tight with her small hands and her head resting on your chest.
"She's sleepy huh?" Joshua pinched her cheeks lightly.
"We wake her up too early than usual, of course, she is," you pulled her away a little bit so you can see her better.
"Mommy won't go too long, be good okay?" You kissed her head.
After a few minutes, you arrived at your parent's house and Joshua parked the car.
Joshua takes Sophea from your arms and you grabbed her things from the backseat.
Her hands tried to reach out for Joshua's face and he leaned forward so she can hold him.
"Mamama," she babbles and pouted while looking at him.
"That's right, mommy and daddy are going away for a while, don't make it hard for grandma okay sweetheart," she then rested her face on Joshua's shoulders and yawned.
"We might come back with a little sister or brother for you," Joshua whispered but enough for you to hear.
"Joshua!" He chuckled before both of you get out of the car and walked to the front door.
Your mom opened the door and smiled seeing your presence. She took Sophea from Joshua's arms who's on her way to drift off to sleep.
"Sorry for the sudden trouble mom," you said to her apologizing.
"It's okay, you both have fun, I'll enjoy my time with her," she pats Sophea's back and you handed her the bag of things that you've packed for your daughter.
"Okay see you soon," you hugged your mom and kissed her cheeks.
"Surprise me with another grandchild maybe?" She winks at Joshua.
"Mom!" You groaned and both of them chuckled.
"You got it, mom!" He gave your mom a high five and you smacked Joshua's arms.
"Don't agree to that,"
You then look at Sophea again and kissed her cheeks.
"See you later baby,"
When you both started walking to the car, you heard Sophea crying. You saw her crying in your mother's arms, with her hand trying to reach for you.
Your mom waved goodbye and went inside the house with Sophea still crying.
Feeling heavy, you both got into the car and Joshua started to drive to the airport.
"Are you okay?" Joshua's voice cuts your thoughts and you nodded.
"It's sad seeing her crying like that, should I call mom to ask whether she has stopped crying or not?" Your hand started looking for your phone but Joshua stops you.
"Babe everything is fine, relax, this is our time together," his right-hand hold yours while he focuses on driving.
"You're right, this is our time together," you agreed and eyes focused on the road.

"The air feels so clean!" You inhaled the fresh air while looking at the breathtaking view from the balcony.
Joshua hugs your waist from the back and gave you a kiss on your cheeks.
"Do you like it?"
"Like it? I love it," you turned your body facing him and wrapped your arms around his neck.
"Can't believe you managed to drag me all the way to New Zealand," you chuckled.
"I want to make it a surprise,"
"Well, I admit the surprise worked," you leaned forward and give him a deep kiss.
"I'll make sure you will remember this trip forever," he said to you while smiling.
"Being with you anywhere is enough," you whispered back.
