It took me a while to fell asleep. I was really anxious about our date. I kept on thinking how it will turn out. Will I be good enough to entertain her ? Or the opposite?

Who knows? Maybe I will just be myself like I always have. There's nothing to be afraid of. As long I offer her food she will be fine.

My day started in a very splendid way. When my eyes opened, the first thing I saw, was Stella's sleeping face. I crooked my head a little to gaze at her. Within a few minutes later, her eyes opened and they met with mine.

" Good morning." I greeted her softly.

" Morning." With a sleepy voice she replied back. It was like a whisper, a very mild tone which was not pitchy or loud.

We got up to freshen ourselves. I let Stella to use the bathroom first. After she was done bathing and brushing her teeth I went next. When I got out from the bathroom, she was not in the room. I wore a plain shirt with a denim jeans. They were hanging on my ankle. I wore a pair of sneakers and went to downstairs.

Stella was waiting for me at the dining table along with the foods. They were served on the table. I took my seat and we started to eat our breakfast. Stella was also dressed already. She wore a loose spaghetti strap dress with a V neck which had a floral print. The dress made her slender arms exposed. They were looking cute. Her long black hair was down. It was simple but elegant.

I decided to took my red Mercedes-Benz with it's roof opened. It was a sunny day, the weather was charming as well. That's why it was a great opportunity to enjoy the nature's beautiful scenery. We wore our sunglasses to prevent our eyes from the lightning beams of sun rays.

" Where are we going?" Stella asked me as she turned her gaze at me.

" Hmm, I wonder." I tried to dodge her question.

" Don't be like that. We have been driving for half an hour already."

" Thanks." As she got out from the car, her eyes began to roam around all over that place to see the area. " A church?"

" Yup. Let's go inside." I replied back her question calmly. Holding her hand, I escorted her inside the church.

" Why are we here? And it's kinda empty here." This is a rundown church. People don't usually come here. Besides it located far from the main city.

" This Church is located inside the forest area. So, people don't come here in fact many of them don't know it exists."

" Oh then what are doing here?"

" To repeat our vows."

" What?" She looked at me with a surprised expression. " You serious?" Her surprise was converted into embarrassment. She was blushing like a red rose.

I had asked John to find a church for me which will have less crowd, no crowd will be even better. I never had the chance to propose her since our wedding was arranged by our parents. So, I thought I should at least repeat our vows, wholeheartedly, one more time. Which is why I took her to this place.

The priest was not present there but who cares anyway. I just want to take a pledge in front of god that I will protect and cherish this girl, standing with me, for the rest of my life.

" I won't make it too long or dramatic. Ever since I started to love you, my life was changed. I see my life in a different way and right now I can't imagine my life without you, Stella. You're like the most important part of it. I just want to promise you that I will love you forever and support you in every step of your life as long I keep on breathing."

I wonder what she is feeling or thinking right now. Was it too much? Maybe it was. The suspense was killing me. I want to hear what she says. She was just standing there looking at me blankly like an idiot.

" I-I'm sorry... I-I'm kinda lost. I don't know where to start from." She let out a soft chuckle. " I'm really bad at expressing my feelings so I want you to know that you are in my heart and soul. Sometimes I may not show you that I'm bothered by your actions but I do get hurt. And the funny thing is, every time I get hurt, you always come back to mend my heart. As if you get hurt when you see me hurt."

She was trying to say those words which she had kept to herself for a long time. I stayed silent waiting for her to speak again.

" I'm so happy.... I really am right now. I'm happy that we didn't had to go on separate ways. Even though I know you for a few months, I felt this weird type of connection when ever I was with you. I tried to deny them thinking it's all just my imagination, an illusion, a sweet dream, a delusion of my mind. But I gotta admit, I was in love with you. I want you to be with me for the rest of my life Theo."

" Say that again." I told her pouting.

" Which one?"

" That 'you love me'" With a smirk I replied back sarcastically.

" I love you." Stella gave me her heartwarming smile and man that was enough to make me fall in love with her again.

We embraced our bodies and touched our lips, locking them together in a joint. My mind felt like it was being purified from all the sins I have done. The peaceful sensation was making me so calm.

Followed by the church, we left that place and went to our next destination. Stella is a type of girl who would enjoy the simplest things. Which is why I took her to eat burger in a diner. Our lunch time was spent there, eating fried, unhygienic, unhealthy food. It's fine as long I won't do it again. I just have to go to gym and burn my extra calories which I just gained now.

After the lunch we went to see a movie. The movie was fine. It ended around 6 pm which was still not the time for dinner. We roamed around some places, talking with each other. I can talk about anything when I'm with Stella. The time went away like this and I took her to a local pub.

It was not that crowded. I have heard that their food is good. My office stuffs have mentioned it some times as they had came here for dinner after their work.
