Semua Bab Evie, Darling: Bab 11 - Bab 20

"Her laugh was love at first sight to the blind man in the dark cave."   Alvaro gently set his wife down on one of the chairs on the dining room, appreciating the hearty breakfast that he prepared for her. He told the cook and the maids to take the week off, wanting Genevieve for himself. The food in the table made his stomach grown with hunger. The cook he had prepares plenty for the three meals of the day. But this morning, seeing the simple yet mouthwatering creation of his wife, he had a feeling that the cook would have to find another place to work at. Nobody's eating his dishes anytime soon. Not unless his wife is not around. Genevieve observed Alvaro as he stared at the food, waiting for him to sit down at the other side of the table so they could eat. But to her surprise, he sat down beside her instead. Her head tilted to the side. Her Mama Emilia said that when dining with someone, you si

"I want to hold you in my arms. Close enough to make you feel what you do to my heart. I want to take your hand and walk you through my dreams, just to show you how much you mean to me." "Have you thought of a name yet, amor?" [Love] Alvaro asked, his eyes watching Genevieve as she pets both the dogs by their ears. They were preparing for bed now, but somehow, Genevieve managed to convince him to let the dogs inside their room. They were trained to stay outside, by their doghouse and the garage, but his little wife wanted them to sleep with her in the room.Nice. He had competition with the two dogs now.

"In your arms, I am home." "Food is ready, querida." [Darling] Alvaro spoke as his Evie walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. He was the first to shower after their play time at the yard, his wife insisted that she takes care of the dogs before she takes care of herself.He didn't appreciate it one bit, but what can he do?"Wow." she spoke, amazement in her eyes as she surveyed the food in the table. It was almost lunch, so Alvaro decided to cook brunch.The satisfaction he felt when Genevieve saw the food was worth the challenge of cooking food for who knows how long. It's been a long time since he last held a knife.Her eyes were still wide with amazement when he neared her, urging her to take a seat so they could start eating. He noticed the other day that Evie's body was a bit on the petite side, and he wanted to make sure that she was healthy.He was determined to add a f

"Close your eyes and picture the sun. That's what it felt like to love her; warmth." "Evie, meet our help around the house." Alvaro said, his hand behind his wife's lower back. The other was held out to introduce his house employees. "Marina is the housekeeper. She cleans all over the place. Marina makes sure that everything is in place and everything is neat. She's been in our family since I was little. Lucy is the other help, Marina's daughter."Edward is the cook, but you can call him Ed. He's in charge of everything in the kitchen, he'll be the one handling our food. If you or I are too busy to cook, anyway.” 

"Other things may change us, but we start and end with family." Genevieve got used to Alvaro working as the days passed. It was easy as she kept herself busy. In the morning, she wakes up next to Alvaro. Sometimes she wakes up first, sometimes he does. If she awoke first, she prepares his breakfast and packed lunch for his office. She didn't want him always eating food from the outside.Home-made meals are always the best.And in the evening, she waits for him by the living area and greets him with a kiss on the cheek. As he does.The couple swoon at each other at
