Thea's tears fell continuously as she whispered, "I can't hear it…"
She heard it of course but she felt it was only a dream. She was afraid that everything was just a dream that she did not dare to make a movement out of fear that she would soon wake up.
Jeru's lips curved upward as he held Thea's shoulders to make her stand up so he could properly hold and kiss her face.
He looked at her eyes closely as he wiped her tears. "Hon… I said I love you. I'm sorry that I confessed later than you, because I was not confident enough. But then, I didn't want to have any regrets in the future so I decided to tell you what I truly feel. I LOVE YOU." Jeru said it loud and clear and his words penetrated deep in her heart.
Thea's face crumpled as she cried that made Jeru grin. "What's this… Stop crying. And here I was expecting my wife to be screaming out loud with joy…" Jeru commented with a smile as he continued to wipe those tears of Thea that kept on flowing.
