SARAS'S POV

 

I got up at night time but my stomach was telling me to put some fuel in it.

 

Room lights were dim and the temperature was pleasant but Sean wasn’t around anywhere.

 

Getting down from my bed somehow my legs padded towards the window and I saw so many twinkling lights far away from our home.

 

That reminds me Christmas is coming.

 

I remember how I used to celebrate every year with Nathan and Sam. They both have never let me feel I am alone but how much they have tired somehow somewhere I have felt something is missing. 

 

Something has been left behind.

 

But what? I don’t know.

 

But this year I want to celebrate Christmas with Sean.

 

I will go to Australia to finish everything and some back on Christmas to surprise him.

 

The mare of thought of this idea thrilled me over and I smiled ear to ear.

 

‘I have to get some gifts as well for him. But what?’ I thought while keeping my finger on my chin.

 

My stomach again growled and told me to feed him so I left that thought to decide later and went to the washroom to freshen up and then feed myself something and look for Sean as well. 

 

I don’t know whether he has eaten anything or not.

 

I went down towards the kitchen. Lights were dim in the entire house but enough for me to know where to go.

 

I believe staff must be sleeping in their quarters. I hope I will find something in the fridge to eat or else with one hand things will be very difficult for me to make.

 

But luckily there was a bowl of Pasta waiting for me and it felt like they were calling me, asking me to eat them. All... lol

          

I instantly warmed it up some and without any delay, I sat on the breakfast stool and started relishing them, and once I was done I kept the bowl in a sink and decided to look for Sean.

 

‘Such a meaning you are. First, you satisfy your hunger and then you are thinking about Sean’ my mind mocked.

 

‘Well, I believe self-healing comes first. Call me selfish, I don't care.’ I reply to my mind shrugging my shoulders.

 

But again I am not mean so I again warmed up some more for him and padded towards his study where I assumed I could find him and I was right.

 

While knocking slowly I peeked in and saw a reading light was on and some files were open on the table. 

A body was launching on the chair with glasses on and a slightly open mouth was giving me an indication of a person sleeping.

 

I padded towards him and small snoring sounds were prominent in the room. My bunny slippers made some sounds while I was walking towards him.

 

Keeping the bowl on the table I give proper attention to anything but an innocent face.

 

I so wanted to click the picture of him but sadly I had forgotten my phone in my room but my intelligent mind worked fast and I looked for his phone and to my luck, I was on the table and without wasting any time I clicked a few pictures before he got up or changed his position.

 

I Bit my lips while clicking the picture of his open mouth and glasses hanging on his nose.

 

But then I somehow felt bad. I know how much work pressure he has. It is not easy to take care of such a big company.

 

Keeping the phone back to the table I tried to take his glasses off but to my disappointment, this small moment broke his sleep.

 

“Hey” Closing his mouth he spoke in a groggy voice.

 

“Hi,” I said while taking a seat on the table and running my fingers in his hair.

 

“When did you come?” He said take my hand in his.

 

“Just now. Sorry, I woke you up.” I said in a low voice.

 

“Oh no don’t worry about that.” He said while nuzzling my hand.

 

I wonder sometimes, why he has an obsession with nuzzling. Sometimes hair, some time crock of my neck and now hand.

 

“Why are you up at this time?” He asked with closed eyes.

 

“I don't know, I guess I was hungry.”I pout saying this and giggle.

 

Chuckling he said, “Let's feed you something then.” Saying he looked up.

 

“No, I just ate and brought some for you too,” I said showing the bowl I got for him.

 

He looked at the bowl and then looked at me smiling “That’s so thoughtful of you wify.” He kissed my hand.

 

“But why did you get up,” I asked while taking a bowl in my hand.

 

“I got an important call and then I couldn’t sleep so..” I couldn't let him complete and said “So you started working hmm?” I gave him a fake glare while taking spoonful pasta in a fork I asked.

 

Taking in mouthful pasta he nodded in agreement.

 

“You need to slow down Sean or else you will get sick trust me,” I said I was worried.

 

“Don’t worry nothing will happen to my darling. Now feed me I am really hungry.” He changed the subject smarty and hence I did not want to starch it either so I just shook my head in disappointment.

  

I fed him the whole bowl looking at his beautiful face and he ate peacefully giving me an idea of how hungry he was.

 

“Why didn’t you eat when you were up for a long time?” I asked feeding him the last spoonful of pasta.

 

“I forgot.” He shrugged his shoulders.

 

I again shook my head but stayed mum.

 

“Are you done with your work or still some pending?” I asked while keeping the bowl to the side and gave a glass of water that was lying on the table.

 

“No babe I am almost done. Let's go.” Saying he kept the glass back after taking a few sips and got up from the chair.
