Chapter 61: Surprise!
My eyes lit up with curiosity as an anticipated look hung on my face.
"Another one?" I asked as an expectant smile fell on my face, a hint of excitement laced my voice. "What is it this time?"
"Just close your eyes first," he repeated, his eyes gleaming with amusement and the same excitement that was already brewing within me. "You will find out soon."
With the smile still lingering on my lips, I let my eyes flutter shut as my heart raced in my chest and my mind buzzed with thoughts. What could it be this time? I wonder why he would surprise me out of nowhere... but I guess I can’t be complaining.
"Put your hands out," he said and I obliged, extending my arms as his voice jolted me back to reality.
My hands remained in the air for a while until I felt him place something on my palms. It was light, almost weighing nothing. I immediately knew what it was even with my eyes still shut, it was paper, a piece of paper. I opened my eyes and sure enough, my gaze flickered down and I found myself staring at a plain piece of sealed envelope.
I looked back up to meet his dark eyes that were swimming with excitement and anticipation. "Open it," he said with a smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
"You are being suspicious, what’s in this envelope?" I eyed it with caution in my eyes.
A low chuckle left his lips. "There’s nothing suspicious about it, just open it and you will know."
