After finishing the cup of tea, Selina felt much better. Since her mind was much clearer than before, she asked Jason another question. Staring at him with curious eyes, she patted the empty spot by her side on the bed.
Climbing obediently to the space next to her and waited for her to speak. As she leaned her head on his arm and hugged his arm, she asked. "How did you know to ask about the packaging colors and length of the sanitary pads earlier? Most guys don't even know what pads are until they read the description of it."
He chuckled, "When you have a girlfriend, you need to learn about these minor details. What if one day you run out of it and need me to get it for you? I can't go cluelessly into a store and ask the staff for a random brand. So, I researched about the brands and observed the ones you buy when we go grocery shopping."
"Oh? Ahh, I suddenly feel so blissful to have such a caring and loving man in my life. What should I do? You even study these minor things for me." She rubbed her cheeks against his arm, enjoying how spoiled her husband allows her to act when they are together.
Pulling his wife in his arms, he planted a kiss on her forehead. "If I don't treat you well, who would I do my studying for? But, I don't want you to suddenly feel blissful. I want you to feel blissful every day with me. So, I will work even harder. Our marriage is too rushed. When everything is over, I will give you a proper wedding and honeymoon."
"You know I don't care much about the ceremonies. Having everyone we love attend the party is enough. Just like last night's party." She looked up to meet his doting smile.
Adjusting their position in bed, he parted his legs and let her occupy the space between it. With his arms hugging around her from behind, he leaned his chin onto her shoulder. "I know you could care less about gifts, ceremonies and many many things because you like being simple. But, it is exactly because I know how you are that makes me want to give you the entire world. Though, it is physically impossible, I want to give you everything that is mine."
Tilting her head sideways, she whispered into his ear. "Silly, then all I ever need is you. As long as you are mine then I will have the world already. Because you are my world. I don't need the grandest wedding nor the most prestigious guests as our witness. The only thing I care about is you being my one and only husband."
Staring into his wife's determined gaze and sweet blossoming smile, he couldn't help but devour her luscious lips. Her words were sweeter than honey, and they haven't eaten breakfast yet! His kisses were gentle as if he was cherishing each second their lips collided against one another. He let his lips slowly separate from hers and then capture the sweet taste again.
In the middle of their playful kisses, Jason's alarm rung into their ears. Like the rooster cheering energetically at a certain time of the morning, the alarm brought the couple back to reality. All it took him was one-second for his finger to reach over and press the stop button to pause the alarm.
As soon as he rotated his head back to his wife's direction, he found his chin caught by her naughty fingers. As her index finger slid up and down his throat in a seductive manner, he heard her sugarcoated voice persuade him to get ready for work.
"Jason, it's time for you to get ready for work." She teased.
"I can take off work for today. You're not feeling well." Cracking his head for the best excuse to stay home with her, he thought this idea would do the trick. Unfortunately, this was not the first day he had met Selina. He knew she wouldn't fall for his trick this time.
"These are menstrual cramps. The only things that help relieve the pain are jujube tea, hot-water bottle, sleep and more tea. Without medication, I can still deal with the pain. I don't need you to accompany for the day." She strictly forbids him from taking off from work for this reason.
"But we're newlyweds. How could I leave my wife the very next morning? My in-laws would kill me faster than your butchers knife chopping through a chicken's neck!" He could've sworn he saw the spark from the corner of her eyes when he mentioned the butchers knife and chicken on a cutting board.
"What's faster? You get ready for work or a phone call to our parents?" She took out her cellphone and was scrolling down her contact list for her mother-in-law's number. Since she knew what her mother and father would say if she called them about him ditching work for her sake, she decided to dial Julia's number instead.
Grabbing a clean towel from the drawer, Jason rushed to the bathroom and peeked out of the bathroom. "Don't forget to tell my parents and in-laws about morning greetings from me too! I need to work hard to feed my wife! I'll make this up to you during our honeymoon! Haha, suddenly, I remember the stacks of documents waiting for me on my desk! I should call Aaron right after my shower!"
Right after he stepped into the shower and water started to splatter against the floor, Selina's lips curled upwards. She looked at the black screen on her phone with a mischievous look on her face. 'Ehehe, I wouldn't interrupt them this early~'
Meanwhile, in the Clover's residence, Jason and Selina's parents were having a joyful conversation about plans for the couple's honeymoon trip. Although this was a matter between them, they still couldn't help but get ahead of them.
As much as Michael and Celinda enjoyed eavesdropping silently on the side, the peaceful mood in the room was soon shattered to pieces. Michael received a call from Alfred about an important update from his side.
"I found Katrina." Alfred said.
Michael hated to break the excitement in the room, but this was more important than discussing about honeymoon. "Alfred found Katrina and brought her back to the underground area where Shirley and Justin's gang are located. Let's go."
Immediately upon hearing his message, everyone's expression changed a full one hundred and eighty degrees. With a solemn expression on their faces, they grabbed their necessities and walked out together.
On their way to the underground cell, Michael sent Selina the address to have her meet them there.
