Chapter 58: Chapter 58
Epilogue
I rested deeply as I walked towards the palace garden.
I meet a few because of Mommy's guests because there is an event being held for my birthday.
But I’m not in the mood to have fun.
I sat on a bench when I arrived at the garden.
I was amazed at the sky.
The beauty of the shining stars.
Where is Anna now?
Is she one of the stars that I keep on staring at everytime I feel sad and lonely?
"Anna"
I whispered.
"Vander"
I grew up when I heard someone whisper.
Suddenly the whole garden lit up.
There are flying pixies.
The flowers are twinkling and the plants are glowing.
I don't know but my heartbeat suddenly quickened.
I don’t know but I’m afraid to look back to wherever that voice came from.
I was still out of breath when I heard someone giggle.
Gradually tears streamed from my eyes and then I slowly turned to where the voice came from.
I was almost holding my breath when I saw who it was.
"Anna"
I was shocked by the harvest.
Am I just dreaming?
Why is Anna here?
Why is she standing in front of me?
Smiling so brightly and beautifully?
She's wearing an off-shoulder purple dress and a gladiator sandals.
he still has a flower crown and he is wearing the necklace I gave him before.
She smiled at me.
She's smiling at the same she's crying.
But that doesn't detract from her beauty.
"Happy Birthday"
He said then slowly walked towards me.
and he stopped when we were facing each other.
"Why are you crying baby Vanvan? Are you sad? Isn't it your birthday?"
He then reached for both my cheeks and wiped away the tears that were still flowing.
He hugged me.
"I'm sorry..i'm sorry if i just got back. I'm sorry if I let you wait too long. I'm sorry Van. "
He said as he hugged me. I removed his hug from me.
"Are you alive?"
I can't believe my question.
and he nodded so I couldn't stop myself from hugging him again.
"I thought I had lost you already Anna. I thought I would never see you again. I thought I would never touch you or even hug you again. I thought you left me. I thought we would never be together again."
My voice growled as I said that.
"I'm also Van, I thought I wouldn't be able to be with you anymore. It's a good thing I was given a second chance to live again."
He answered me.
"Why are you acting there? You looked like you were about to cry when I appeared here."
He says.
"I miss you already. It's been five years since I saw you."
I answered and I heard him laugh.
"Have you been miserable Van? Are you blaming yourself for what happened to me hmm?"
He said softly.
"You shouldn't have done it Anna.don't do that again even if my life is at stake. Don't you dare to sacrifice your self for others. "
It shook and then I looked up.
He stroked my face. He smiled at me.
"I love you."
He said so I smiled back at him too.
"I love you too my Anna. Don't leave me again ah? Maybe I'll go crazy forever."
It made me laugh.
"You've been a mad Van, ever since."
I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Crazy mad at me."
He said this and then I was shocked so I laughed.
"Happy birthday, I don't have a gift tomorrow."
I shook my head.
"You're more than enough Anna."
He snorted and shook his head.
"No, I should have a gift. I missed your five birthdays."
He said so I laughed.
"Me too."
I answered but he just smiled at me.
"Fine, this is it first."
He said then squatted down and applied our lips.
I smiled and then looked at Anna's very humble face.
She’s still beautiful even five years later.
he was about to leave when I suddenly pulled him closer to me and touched his face and reapplied our lips.
And I felt a tear fell from my eyes.
I even laughed in my mind as if it had become stiff and was surprised when I moved my lips.
I tightened my grip on him even more when he kissed me back as well.
Best birthday ever.
Anna is back.
The woman I love the most and the woman I will marry and the woman who will be the mother of my children.
"Anna, are you still a twin?"
I laughed when he suddenly hit me.
"Why do you want twins? You can have one first and then your one? It's hard to give birth to Evander Shawn so stop me."
He said but I regretted him.
"Nah, I'll do my best to be a twin."
He hit me again.
"You're a twin there and we're not even married yet. I'll leave you there."
I took his hand and hugged him.
"Fine, just get married before the twins. I don't want you to be like Mommy who gave birth on the day she and Papa got married."
I heard him laugh.
"But the twins can also come first."
Anna said then kissed me again.
THE END....
