The Unforseen

Sizani's P.O.V

"Why are the lights off?" I said as Nandi parked the car.

Nandi looked at me and shrugged, "I don't know."

I grabbed my things from the backseat and got out of the car.

Nandi stepped out of the car as well and followed me to the house.

"Do you think something happened to him?" I asked her.

"Something like what?"

"I don't know." I shrugged.

"Maybe he went out." She said as we stepped on the porch.

My anxiety had reached his peak.

Where would he possibly go this late?

I was worried that maybe somebody had broken into the house and harmed him.

I took out the house keys from my handbag and unlocked the door.

"Michael?" I opened the door and stepped inside.

Oh my goodness!

Roses petals and candles were laid down on the floor. They made a pathway leading into the house.

The lights were dimly lit, and smooth rnb music was playing in the background.

"Michael?" I called out to him.

I felt like crying.

"I'm in the dining room." He said.

I went over to where he was, and Nandi followed close behind.

"Hey, love." He said as I stepped into the dining room.

He was carrying a bouquet of flowers.

Red roses, to be precise.

My favorite.

"What's going on, Michael?" I asked him.

He walked towards me and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Welcome home, baby." He said, completely ignoring my question.

"Michael." I muttered on a verge of tears.

"These are for you."He handed me the bouquet.

"For real?" I said as I smelled them.

He chuckled, "Yes."

Michael kissed my forehead and then pulled out a chair for me.

"Thank you." I said once again as I took a seat.

"You guys are so cute." Nandi said while taking a video of us.

Michael and I chuckled.

"Shall I bring starters?" Nandi asked.

"Yes, please." Michael said as he took a seat.

Third Person's P.O.V

Michael grabbed Sizani's hands and gave both of them a light kiss.

"You're beautiful." He said.

Sizani broke into a smile and giggled.

She could never get tired of hearing Michael's compliments.

"I know I say that way too many times, but that's only because it's true. You are truly a beautiful woman, Sizani. Both inside and outside." He said.

"Are you trying to make me cry?" Her eyes began to tear up.

He lightly chuckled, "Only if they're tears of joys."

Nandi walked in, carrying two plates. She gently placed them on the table.
