Flower on the ash

We all reached Alex's villa. Mr.Wilson had called his driver to pick up us from the bus stand. Today was really an exciting yet tiring day. I wanted to go home and sleep but Mrs.Wilson requested me to come with them so I couldn't reject her.

" Go and relax a bit. I'll make the dinner." Mrs.Wilson said when we reached home heading towards the kitchen.

" Let me help you." I insisted and followed her.

" No no. Today's dinner is specially for my dear daughter-in-law. I can't let you help me." Mrs.Wilson said and send me out of the kitchen.

" Alex come and accompany Anna." Mrs.Wilson said loud enough for Alex to hear sitting in the drawing room. He came into the kitchen and walked towards me and Mrs.Wilson engaged herself with work.

" What do you want to do?" Alex asked me.

" Anything you like." I said in a normal tone. He leaned towards me and whispered in my ear.

" Never say anything you like. There are a lot of things I would like to do to you which you had never even thought of." he said and my cheeks turned deep red in colour. I was looking down on the floor. He pulled back and smirked.

" Let me show you this villa." he said taking my hand in his and making me realize that even I have visited here twice but never saw the whole house. He walked casually like he said nothing just a moment ago. We walked upstairs and turned towards right. The first room was the one where I stayed when I first came to his villa. He skipped the next three rooms and I concluded that they were all guestrooms. When we arrived infront of the fourth room Alex took out a key from his pocket and opened it.

" Why have you locked it?" I asked him. None of the other rooms were locked.

" Because the person going to live here hasn't arrived yet." he said and swung the door open.

" Our child." he said and I turned back to look at him wide eyed. I think he would love his child very dearly. It's giving me a hope that he will refuse the proposal of marrying Sophia but I don't know if my hope will come true or not. He shows a lot of care and support to me and I know he is gonna love this child unconditionally and for a mere second a picture of me, Alex and this child suddenly popped up in my mind living happily like a family. But I shook my head to erase all these thoughts.

I looked around the room. It was almost empty except some carton.

" We will choose the decoration design when we will know the child's gender." he said. I walked towards the carton. There were children's toys in them. I smiled brightly looking at them.

" Come let's see the other rooms also." he said and I nodded. I walked out taking a last look at the room. He locked the room again and started to show me other rooms. At last we were in the balcony. It was very spacious.

" Come sit." he said and guided me to a couch in there. We both sat on it and Alex put his hand on my shoulder. I looked at him.

" Look at the sky." he said and I slowly turned my gaze away from his eyes to the night sky. The stars were twinkling in the sky and in the middle of them was the bright full moon. The scene was incredibly beautiful and romantic. The most appealing scene to look at with the person you like and a baby of you and your husband in your belly feels like a complete heaven. I wish that I could live like this for the rest of my life without any problems and worries.

" Alex Anna. Don't sleep here. Come, the dinner is ready." Mrs.Wilson's voice startled me and I opened my eyes quickly.

" We weren't sleeping. We were just relaxing." Alex said to his mom lifting his head from mine. I didn't even realize that we were almost hugging each other but his hug felt so warm and relaxing.

" Ok. Come now." she said and walked away.

" Let's go." Alex said standing up and forwarding his hand I smiled and accepted his hand and also stood up. We both walked down to the hall into the dinning room. We all took our seats. I sat beside Alex and Mr.Wilson sat on the head seat.

Mrs.Wilson walked into the room with dishes in her hands. She put the dish on the middle of the table. I don't know why but I was sweating and feeling nauseous. Mrs.Wilson opened the lid and the sudden smell of fish made me scrunch my nose.
