Through the Wings of Timeless Love - Chapter 60:A Night to Remember
One of the hotel crew knocked on the door and gave to Seb the hair dryer requested.
She was still immobile and forcibly closed her eyes so he turned off some of the lights. They somehow need to move closer to the mirror but she does not like to see his face out of shame so he gently and smilingly carried her on the chair nearby the outlet, with her eyes still closed bearing some outstanding shame.
” Shh…everything’s be alright now, the security force are done with us, probably they’re getting back to their post now. I mean, it had been hours then. I’m sure they won’t come back.”
They both laughed again as she continuously covered her face. He then started the hair drying and enjoyed doing it for her, so silent recalling in his mind everything he saw from the transparent bathroom, breathlessly watching her, though it did not take that long since she really avoided his tantalizing eyes and to be further dead of it. But wherever his thoughts may go, however the thought of Banli hinders everything and back to her, switching on and off in his memory.
” I’m very sorry…”
” For what?” Seb asked
” For being tactless. I honestly did not know about it. Don’t attempt to talk back. My embarrassment has not subsided yet and its killing me whenever I recall it.”
” But…w…why you shouted when I took a bath and you saw me. I just set aside my pride to make it fair. At first, I was thinking of covering the wall but in the middle of my thought was, it seems unfair that it’s only my wife who would have that sole…embarrassing experience.”
” I…saw you too…it’s popping in my mind…again and again.” Karla honestly admitted.
” It’s an accident. We didn’t plan all these, right? Look at me now…shh…haha…your hair is ready for sleep, I’ll take you there in your bed and I’ll stay on the floor, there are still extra towels that I can make use of.”
” Noooooo! darling no! don’t stay away from me. If you stay away, you might steal a stare at me while I fall asleep. You sleep on the edge and face the same direction then I’ll stay behind you so that you can’t see my face. That eventually made me to file a leave tomorrow too. Hmm…she cried again.”
” My goodness…my untouched wife is really killing me softly and gently.” He thought.
” Darling, don’t worry, as long as my prowess as angel sticks with me, still, I will be very obedient to my mission…hmm, though what is worst with them was giving back my memories. ” Seb asked smilingly reassure her.
” At the balcony, let’s face there. Hmm, I am just very curious, several times you ran and use water and shower when you blushed, why is that?”
” Okay, did your parents know that you’re sleeping with a handsome guy right now? Haha, kidding, but back to your question, yeah, hmm…it’s just that, you make my heart fluster and…it beautifully threatens me, yes.” Then he smiled at her.
She pinched his waist as he almost shouted but she covered his mouth and was afraid that the censor might capture a loud noise again. Only laughter is exempted for the alarm.
” The night was getting colder and the curtains they’re watching kept on swaying so gracefully then she spoke.
” Camille kissed you early today and announced in front of us that she’ll make you her boyfriend. How is that.”
” Don’t believe on her, she’s just too disappointed with her life while you are the most valuable woman I’ve ever found in my whole life through different time and space. You’re even my wife, so calm down, ignore her.”
” Hmm…what will I do now. I’m so embarrassed, in whatsoever topic I’d like to share but the ending is, can’t forget their bathroom here, it’s so weird.”
” Whatever you think….the conclusion is…you’ve got a perfect shape, everything…” Seb whispered.
Then she slapped his back so lightly enough to make him laugh again.
” Hahaha! this is really a great night to remember. Hmm what do you want to do so that we can forget the embarrassment. Let’s drink the wine?”
” No, we can’t. I send it back to the security team. I’m afraid if you’ll get drunk you’ll keep laughing at me.
” Hmm…okay….so let’s just sleep now or what, we can stroll on the streets, which one.”
” I don’t know, all I wanted to do now is to hide behind you, it’s comforting me already.”
” I understand. Keep embracing me…just disregard my heartbeats, I actually have died already after I saw you in the bathroom.”
” There you are again, umm! ” She pinched him once more and he suddenly faced her and caught her eyes illuminating out of the silhouette of dancing lights coming from the moonlight, passing through the curtains. But he jumped out of the bed bringing his pillows and blanket.
” I’ll stay here on the floor. I’m sorry darling, please…understand. You’re in danger, please. Leave me here alone and I will just be silent tonight. Goodnight. Just call me if there’s a problem.
It made her frantically afraid and silent while watching the stars from a distant far where the nimbus clouds started to swallow the bluish skies. The curtains swaying still entertained her sight seeing, dragging her droopy eyes to forget the embarrassment and fell asleep.
On the other hand Seb felt that her dozy sighs had been sealed by silence thus he slowly walked toward the bathroom and tricked the transparent walls to have floral and leafy decorations; hovering the entire sorts and corners. After all, he sat down and switched on the light inside the bathroom and could still freshly see her underneath the shower, though literally, there’s nothing visible outside, not even any traces of lights, nor a single lit to pass through or shadows can. It was seriously motif by strongly colored flowers and jungle leaves.
“Tomorrow, you would never be awkward inside this bathroom, with all those embellishments clinging on the wall, I think you’ll love them. You have to enjoy your bathing and we’ll go somewhere else afterwards .” Then he turned off the light, proceeded to the balcony and closed the windows at 9:00pm.”
At 1 o’clock in the morning she woke up and turned on the lights. Seb felt her steps, walking slowly but he pretended like sleeping. He has heard her appreciating the beautiful designs.
” Wow…this is how this hotel must design their bathrooms, you did it brilliantly.” She whispered to herself.
” Ah, haha…I know the hotels won’t do it…this room is for couples enjoying honeymoon. My poor wife…she’s maybe the first woman who destroyed the architect’s blueprint of this room, where I stand as accomplice.” Seb was smiling in his thought.
After carefully touching the glass matted with etched-type carving with emblems of almost true-to-life leaves and flowers, she was amazed of their protrusion and iconic artworks.
” Where did he portray these realism concept wonderfully plastered here, hmm. My husband made this aesthetic view in here. This is more than Php 12,500, I guess it’s more than Php 50,000. Amazing!” Karla whispered to herself and mesmerized by the designs.
” Hmm, thank you, darling. How could I return to sleep when you’re moving my heart too much.” Seb thought while listening at her.
