Chapter 51 IT’S A SHORT JOURNEY
- Kiara POV
- Holding my smartphone in my hands, a fulfilled smile dash across my face then lingered on my lips. Staring at the profound admiration etched on his face on the screen was affecting my heart to simmer with great pleasure. These past few weeks had been the best days of my life thus far. Alexander had brought nothing but happiness into my life. I feel so glad to have someone as him as my man. This particular snapshot was taken on the day we both visited an aquarium. It was a big vivarium with different aquatic plants and animals. I was lost staring at it when Alexander came to stand beside me. “It's one of the biggest aquatic collections in Europe. It has over five hundred species of fish and contains over two million liters of water” He explained but I only upwards the vivarium and smiled, seeing different beautiful sea creatures. “It's so enthralling” I muttered, but I presumed he heard my words clearly, “Being with you is more enthralling” I blushed, and to cover how reddened I've become, I quickly gave him my phone and gave him my best pose. He laughed and then started to take some pictures.
- We walked around the aquarium and each time, I stopped to take some pictures. Suddenly, he pulled me closer to him and took some selfies. Some ladies passed by and waved at him, he waved back but only to receive a painful smack on his hand. “It's just an ordinary wave, Kiara” He exclaimed, rubbing his hand. I eyed him severally, “You're supposed to ignore the wave, not the other way round” He then suppressed his lips in a tight line, darting his gaze to somewhere else. “That shark looks like you” I sneered, pointing to a shark. “And that dolphin reminds me of someone” He slammed back, earning a glare from me. He chortled, “What? I didn't say it looks like Kiara, did I?” I sneered relentlessly this time then called out, “Dogfish” He slammed back again, "Remora” I sighed, “Let me be the bigger person and end this” I said proudly then added “Catfish” He just chuckled then pulled me to himself again. Furthermore, I stiffened, of course, I understand what he was trying to do with the way his lips were approaching my face little by little. “Alex, we are…” My words were stopped by his lips on mine. One second was all it took for me to return the kiss, passionately. Applause came from the few people that were there, but we didn't stop. I can never get enough of him.
