If you were falling, then I will catch you

Bobby and I are just moved to our new house in Liverpool and we’re busy to manage our stuff, arranging and decorating some rooms, et cetera. I climbed onto the top shelves to put some of my books on it when the chair is suddenly moves and almost make me fall backward when pair of strong hands catches me right before I fall.

“Be careful, love. You almost got me a heart attack.” His lips twitched to a grin.

“Well, you’ll catch me, right?” I put my hands around his shoulder as I saw a sweat dripped from his forehead. “You’re working too hard,” and wiped it with the tip of my sweatshirt.

“So do you.” He leaned to kiss me.

You need a light, I’d find a match

We’re having a short vacation at October when he took me to spend some days in one of villa at Alphen Mountains. It was also our second wedding anniversary.

He went out to order some food and drink to our dinner when suddenly the lights go out.

“Bobby?” I called his name, feel the urge of fear when I can see nothing but darkness surrounding the place. I can’t move a feet because I’m too scared. I had a phobia with darkness even since I was little, I could even blacked out if anyone didn’t find me soon in the dark. “Bobby, could you hear me? Please?” I started to cry.

It was like five minutes when I was surrounded with the darkness which for me felt like forever when I heard footsteps and a voice calling my name. “I’m coming, I’m coming.” I heard his calm voice and then I feel his arms around my body. “I’m here with you, everything is alright.” He repeated those words over and over again with his calm voice as trying to ease my panic. I can feel his lips pressed gently on my forehead.

He helped me to stand, still didn’t release his arm around me when we passed the dark room, he managed to find a match and candles which supposed to be used to our candle light dinner. He lit all the candles so the room wasn’t dark anymore.

“It’s alright now,” he still hold me tight, wipe my tears and never leave my side until the light turn on.

‘Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am

“Good morning, love.” He stepped inside our room, trey on the hands as I can smell strawberry jams on the toast and vanilla milk.

I was still lie on my bed with blanket covered half of my body. I was came home so late last night because of my job and too tired to wake up early morning like i usually do.

I yawned when I try to sit on my bed. “You make me breakfast? That’s very nice of you.” I said and kissed him good morning.

“I know you were tired. So here, drink your milk.”  He said, grabbed a glass of milk and hand it to me.

I drank up till the last bit like i wasn’t even drink for long time, left a white spark over my lips which he wiped it forward with his thumb.

“You know, it’s the best milk I ever drink, what’s the ingredients?” I asked after drank it.

His lips curled down before smiled. “Maybe made by all my love for you.” His cheesy answered made us looking into each other before burst to laugh.

If you are chilly, here take my sweater

We go shopping to buy our Christmas gif at one of shopping center in Liverpool when suddenly the snow is falling from grey sky above. I was started to shivering cause I didn’t wear any scarf or gloves this day. I was so reckless.
