At the end of work, David and Ella went to the parking lot.
"What do you want to eat today?" David asked while he was fastening his seat belt.
"We buy ingredients and cook at home, okay?" Ella said.
"Of course. But you don't need to cook because your leg wound hasn't completely healed yet. I will be the cook."
She quickly nodded. They go to the supermarket to buy a few ingredients needed for the menu of meals. Then they returned to their house.
"Wait for me in the living room, I'll cook right away," David said while he took off his coat.
Ella sat down on the sofa and turned on the television.
David went into the kitchen, put on his apron, took the ingredients from his bag, and put them on the table. First, he cut the onion.
Ella watched TV for a while, she got bored, so she turned it off. She looked into the kitchen and saw him chopping onions.
Ella went to the kitchen, stood at the door, and stared at him. David was focused on what he was doing, so he didn't notice Ella was staring at him.
Ella was silent, letting him focus on cooking. It is often said that a man is most attractive when he cooks. This saying is very true. Her heart skipped a beat as she looked at him.
David wore a blue shirt and an apron over it. He cuts the ingredients expertly. She feels he is like a professional chef. She can't forget on her birthday he cooks noodles for her. And she felt it was the best bowl of noodles.
Suddenly, David looked up and saw Ella. "You hungry?" He asked while still cutting the ingredients with his hand. This time, he cut the beef.
Ella smiled, unconsciously replying. "No. I love watching you cook. That's when I felt you were great."
David couldn't help but smile. He noticed that his heart was trembling, and his fingers were too. He almost cut his finger. He tried to calm himself before continuing to cook.
Ella sat down on the wooden chair and continued to watch David.
After more than thirty minutes, David put all the dishes on the table. Today's menu includes French fries, salad nicoise, and Steak Tartare.
Ella looked at the dishes on the table and scoffed. "Delicious and delicious."
David was pleased with today's meal. He's confident she'll love it. The two of them ate together, happy and warm.
After the meal, David washed the dishes. Ella sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting for him.
A few minutes passed, and she felt sleepy, so she closed her eyes.
After David cleaned up the mess in the kitchen, he wiped his hands on a towel and walked out into the living room. He saw his wife fast asleep.
He walked over to her and sat down. He reached out and stroked her chubby cheeks. He couldn't help but place a kiss on her cheek.
Ella felt something soft touch her cheek, so she woke up, seeing David's smile. Ella sat up.
He hugged Ella in his arms. Moments later, David released her from his embrace. He cupped her face, kissed her forehead, eyes, nose, and finally her lips.
Ella didn't resist, she closed her eyes and returned his kiss. Her heart at this moment suddenly beats with gentle happy beats.
Outside the window, were thin white petals wet with night dew.
David's arms around her waist tightened, and he kissed her hair lightly, whispering in her ear. "I love you so much."
"I love you too," Ella replied.
David is like a fire, a burning flame, can't feel the heat around him, if you approach him, you will hurt yourself.
That's right, loving him is painful. But, she accepts her pain to get his love.
They kissed each other until they felt suffocated. They let go, giving each other a short space to breathe.
"Do you want to watch a movie?" David suddenly suggested.
"Yes."
"Which movie do you like the most?"
Ella thought for a moment. "I love you."
"Okay." David took the 'Truly Love You' CD from the cupboard. He turned off the living room light and turned on the yellow table lamp.
David hugged her while pressing the remote control. They stared at the TV screen. The spreading yellow light makes Ella seem lost in the love story in the movie, and at the same time, also lost in the warm atmosphere with only her and him.
Watching the male and female lead couple passionately kiss on screen, Ella tilted her head, glancing at David. She remembered David's sweet kisses.
"What are you looking at?" David curled his lips, giving her a meaningful look. He lifted her head and said. "You want to kiss again?"
Ella's face flushed red, she avoided his hot gaze. She felt his lips get closer and closer to hers.
After a while, his tongue began to invade the inside of her mouth.
David wrapped his left arm around her waist while his right was placed behind her head. He hugged her tightly.
Ella put her arm around his neck. She felt a burning sensation in her heart. She felt an electric current running through her body and into her heart. She loves the feeling of being kissed by the man she loves.
The kiss lasted a few minutes. David carried her to the bedroom. He put her on the bed and lay beside her. He kissed her soft body before sleeping. Ella liked the way he kissed her gently, not as violently, as passionately as last time.
In his arms, she looked up, he was closing his eyes, fast asleep. Ella gently brought her cold body close to his. Her face was placed in front of his chest, and she listened to the strong, steady heartbeat, his breath gently blowing through her hair, his body also had a special scent.
She closed her eyes, she felt like she was in a flower garden with bright, warm sunlight. Soon after, she fell asleep.
The next day, after Ella wakes up, she doesn't find David beside her. She rubbed her aching forehead and walked out of the bedroom. She discovered that there was a glass of juice on the table, the ice in the glass had almost melted, leaving only a few thin ice cubes, floating above. Next to the glass of juice is a sweet buttercream cake, the green color of the avocado highlights the few roses at the top, so beautiful that one can't wait to eat it.
