One last time

A night before the wedding.

Standing in the backyard, Silvia was thinking about how things were gonna change starting tomorrow. Tomorrow she would be leaving her house and move in with Kevin as his wife. 

Thinking about staying with Kevin under the roof all by herself made her feel giddy and strange at the same time.

As Silvia was busy in her own thoughts, Uncle Thomas placed his hand on her shoulder and said," Look at you standing outside without wearing any warm clothes. You are so careless how are you going to take care of your husband and you new house?" 

Leaning against him, Silvia chuckled and said," Now look at you scolding me. I am leaving tomorrow and-"

Cutting her off, uncle Thomas said," You are just shifting to a new place but this will always be your first house. Your room and your things are always going to remain in the same place. You can come over whenever you want. If you don't like Kevin and you want to come back, the door of this house will always be open for you. Did you understand?"

Silvia nodded her head and said," Yes."

" I can't believe my princess is leaving tomorrow." Uncle Thomas said.

Silvia laughed and said," Weren't you the one who wanted me to marry Kevin? You were all happy and laughing when I agreed to marry him."

" Yes I was because Kevin is a very nice boy. I know he will keep my princess happy." Uncle Thomas said.

" Dad you don't have to worry because Kevin's place is very close by and I'll definitely drop by every now and then." Silvia said.

" Hmm you better show your face after every alternate day otherwise I will come to your place and drag you back home to have dinner with me." Uncle Thomas said.

Silvia sighed and said," Don't worry about that."

....:

Next day.

" Okay so this bag has all your cosmetics and other things that you need and this bag has all your clothes and this one-"

" Mom." Silvia said before giving Aunt Lily a hug.

Aunt lily who was trying really very hard not to cry couldn't stop her tears anymore," Oh my baby."

" I'll miss you." Silvia said.

Patting her back, Aunt Lily said," I'll miss you too. This house is going to be so lifeless without you."

Just then Janet entered the room and said," Ah you guys how to hug each other without me?"

" Group hug." Silvia said.

" God Sil I'll miss you." Janet said.

Silvia chuckled and said," I am leaving the country or something like that. We can meet whenever we want to."

After hugging each other for quite sometime, Silvia asked," Where is Steve?"

" He is inside his room." Janet said.

" I'll go meet him." Silvia said.

....

Steve's room.

After entering the room, Silvia leaned against the door and asked," So you are not gonna see me off?"

Steve rolled his eyes and said," What's with seeing you off? You are just going away leaving us alone."

" Oh is it." Silvia said.

Steve nodded his head and said," Yes it is like that and its good that you are leaving. Now I can hijack everything. The entire pizza, leftover cake, Mom's delicious brownies and-"

Walking towards him, Silvia chuckled and asked," Mr Steve are you crying?"

" No I am not." Steve said.

" Aww my little brother is going to miss me." Silvia said before giving him a tight hug.

" And don't worry I'll always come here and fight with you for the cake and pizzas and Mom's delicious brownies. I am just moving out. I'll drop by every now and then." Silvia said.

" I'll miss you Sil." Steve said.

" Hmm I'll miss you too." 

Just then Janet entered the room and said," Sil Kevin's here."

Letting Steve go, Silvia said," Now come and see me off."

...

Downstairs.

When Silvia arrived downstairs, Kevin and uncle Thomas were talking to each other while Aunt Lily was rushing here and there.

When Kevin saw Silvia, he gave a sweet smile.

" There she is." Uncle Thomas said.

Getting up from his seat, Kevin asked," Where are your bags?"

" I'll go get them." Silvia said.

" Uh you stay here. I'll get them." Kevin said before rushing upstairs.

" He is such a gentleman." Janet said.

After placing Silvia's luggage inside the car, Kevin entered the house again.

" It's getting late. You both should leave." Uncle Thomas said.

" Yeah we have to go the marriage bureau first." Kevin said.

Hugging her family for one last time, Silvia left along with Kevin.

Before leaving, Kevin hugged uncle Thomas and said," I'll send the car in the evening and don't worry about her." 

Patting his back, Uncle Thomas nodded his head.

....

Inside the car.

Passing Silvia a tissue box, Kevin said," Here."

" Thanks." Silvia said.

" You can always come and meet them and if you want we can stay with them during weekends or you can come and stay here when I am not there." Kevin said.

Silvia nodded her head and said," Hmm I know. Do you always keep tissues in your car?"

Kevin shook his head and said," No. I bought them yesterday. Well I thought you will need them so-"

Silvia smiled and said," Thanks."

Scratching his forehead, Kevin said," I-I also bought pizza for you. It's in the back seat. I thought it will help you cheer up."

Silvia chuckled when she saw a pizza box at the back seat.

Pointing towards it, Silvia asked," Is that a wedding gift?"

Kevin shook his head and said," God no I am not that cheap. This is just a token of Thankyou for getting married to me."

Opening the pizza box, Silvia said," Well this is the tastiest Thankyou that I have ever received."
