“Now you tell me, how was your trip? I know you always love beaches. I am sure you will have a wonderful time.”
“It was nice, “Eva replied with a smile. Michael noticed how the smile didn’t reach her eyes. He knew her daughter very well, so it’s easy for him to conclude that something is bothering his daughter.
Soon they all get seated for dinner all the time. Stephen kept his silence and Eva just gave the answer to the questions in yes or no.
“Eva, tomorrow morning the designer will be here with your dress that you have worn in the evening for the reception party, so try it and tell her if any alteration is required. “
Eva gave a nod in agreement. After finishing the dinner, Eva and Stephen left for their room.
Rose remarked, “Why are they not looking pleased together? Did something happen between them?” pleased
“You are worrying unnecessary. This trip must wear them out. They will be fine after taking some rest.” William commented
Rose then asked Michael, "You understand nothing. What do you think, Michael? Don’t you notice their dull faces?
“I did, but I think they must have had an argument. After all, Eva is just like her mother. You know your dear friend was fighting with me on the last day of our honeymoon. That too, for a silly reason.”
“What reason?” Rose inquired
“Actually, she somehow lost her matching footwear and blamed me for losing it.
Trust me, Eva must have followed in her mother’s footsteps. As far as I know, Stephen is a mature man; he will do nothing to hurt her. Didn’t you notice his face? Poor man just tasted the perks of being married."
William and Michael shared a laugh at this, whereas Rose just shook her head.
“No, I don’t agree. Eva is a naïve and sweet girl, but my son is a very demanding man. I am sure he must have done something wrong
Should I scold him?”
“Rose sweetheart, they are now husbands, and I don’t think it’s appropriate to meddle in their matters. Let them learn to sort out their issues; give them some privacy. Ok “
Rose sighed and left for her room, whereas William dropped Michael in his room and had left for his bedroom.
In Stephen’s bedroom
Stephen quickly changed into his nightwear and left for the attached balcony to make some important calls. Eva also changed into her nightdress, which was a Mickey Mouse-printed loose t-shirt and lower
When Eva arrived in the room, she found Stephen standing near the bed doing something on the phone. Listening to the door sound, he gazes at her
“I was waiting for you.”
Eva got nervous at his words. She held her t-shirt in a soft grip. Stephen was quick to note her discomfort, so he added,
“I mean waiting to ask you which side you will prefer.”
“Hmm. “ Eva gave a confused look at him.
“On which side you would like to sleep, left or right?”
“I am fine with both. “
"Ok, then I will take the left; is it ok for you?”
“Hmm “
“Good night, Eva."
“Good.. Night."
