Chapter 69: Chapter 69
Traizle
"I missed you."
"I was not able to sleep well after our fight."
"I was not able to sleep as well. There was a time when I wanted to go to our room to punch you." I answered.
"That would be hell, wife," he replied. "I planned to recuperate to make peace with you. I do not want to prolong our fight any longer." he added.
"You can recuperate now." I answered.
"Really?" He asked back. "How?" He added eagerly.
I turned to the stage and pointed it out.
"You want me to sing on that stage?" He was surprised.
"I won't let you pay for your bill only. Singing on the stage can't be bought with your money—wait, I still had to clarify this topic with you." I told him.
"What is it?" He asked back.
"Please don't boast about your money before me," I answered. "I honestly feel so offended every time you shove your money."
"I did not know that you were offended by that. I am so sorry about that. All I have is money, which I can only offer. I will promise not to do that anymore."
I pointed at the stage again.
"Go now, apology accepted after singing." I told him.
He fished out his phone and handed it to me.
"Take a video of me, and I need to see what my performance looks like after." he said, standing up to go to the stage.
Does he know how to sing?
I will know when he sings later.
I opened his phone and saw my picture as his wallpaper while I was working. Maybe he took one without me noticing it.
People started to crowd the place. I can also hear them talking about Zarsuelo, why he is here, and why he will sing.
Zarsuelo is still talking to the people on stage, the drummer and the guitarist.
"Uhm, Hi! I am Zarsuelo. I am here to perform a song for my wife." he said.
The crowd whooped with excitement.
I can feel the heat of my cheeks as well. This thing can make any girl feel happy and loved.
"Oh, I need to take a video of him." I told myself.
Back to your senses, Traizle. Zarsuelo asked you for a favor, which is to take a video of him performing.
"Hi, wife. Honestly, I did not expect to do this here and tonight. I thought I would be spending the night alone again in our room. Take my song as my apology. I will promise to show you a better version of myself from now on. I love you!" Zarsuelo added.
Why is he so cheesy?
How can I answer him back now?
Since the people are crowding the place already, I can't answer either. I am going to tell him my answer later.
He started singing.
Even though many people are watching him sing, it feels like only two of us are in this place, looking at each other.
I think he can give me those finer things already.
The song ended with the people shouting for more.
After hearing him sing a few stanzas, I couldn't help but be speechless with his song.
I felt the love he wanted to show me.
After a few years of waiting for me, I didn't know that this was how I impacted his life.
How can I be so blessed?
I didn't know he saw me as a woman who would be his wife someday.
"Wife, how's my performance?" Zarsuelo's voice brought me back to my senses.
I ended the video as well.
Hmp. How can this man be so talented? What are his flaws, aside from his love of eating sweets?
"We should go out now." I told him, and I held his wrist so that we could go out.
I was surprised to find out we would get crowded. How can this man attract too many people with just his voice?
"Matthew." I called him when we got far from the restaurant.
Hearing me calling his first name made him smile already.
Small things can make him happy as well.
"Why, wife?" he asked.
"Thank you." I told him.
"For what? For the song?" He asked. "It's a small thing, wife. That is not a big deal." he added.
I smiled. "This is the first time I felt the love of a man I love. It feels like I am on cloud nine. How can you be so attractive even while singing? You didn't also tell me that you could sing," I told him. "I think there is a lot of information about you that I don't know about. From now on, I will promise to make more effort. Thank you for waiting for me."
He suddenly hugged me.
"I love you. I love you!" He answered.
"Oh? I think that's her." we heard a voice.
We saw a couple looking at us. "Oh, it's you?" A girl said.
"You are the girl I bumped into a while ago... and you were the man last night, right?" I asked, stuttering.
The man smiled. "Ah, yeah. We are okay now. So, I told her about you too. I didn't know you guys had already met," he answered.
I pointed my boyfriend. "Ahh, he is the man I talked about last night too. We are okay now as well,"I explained. "I am happy that you guys are okay now." I added.
"Thank you, we are happy for both of you. I didn't know he was the man you are talking about." he laughed.
"We should drink someday, on me." Matthew commented.
"It would be our pleasure to drink with you, Matthew." the man replied.
"We should go now so you can continue your evening date." they added before leaving.
"We should ditch our activities tomorrow and just date the whole day," Matthew suddenly said. "We lost a lot of time with our small cute fight. Dating the whole day tomorrow will recuperate for those days. I want to go to a different place without working and have a family trip. Let's bring your family next time. I want to experience a family trip with my new family, and I want you and the boys to experience this kind of trip." he added.
I nodded. "I am sure they will like having a family trip. We have been planning this kind of trip before. How about your grandparents?" I asked back.
"We will start our family outing next year. I will let them tour by themselves for now. Next year, it will be ours," he answered.
"Sure. I am looking forward to that."
