Chapter 537: All Yours
"Ouch!" Cali cried out in pain after she pinched herself on the arm. She was not dreaming but was wide awake and everything was a reality! The voice she heard was real and that meant... She realized what it meant and hastily turned around and cupped Rui’s face in her palms, who was smiling widely at her.
"Where had you gone?!" she burst as tears started to fall from her eyes.
Rui wiped her cheeks and whispered, "I’m back... Please stop crying, Cali. It breaks my heart seeing you cry like this..."
Cali pounced at him and murmured, sobbing, "I’m sorry. I will never do that again. Please don’t leave me ever again like this."
They stayed there, stilled, hugging each other for some time, and Rui’s heart was filled with unexplainable joy. He was feeling too happy. How long did he dream of hugging his wife like this with her consent? And now it has come to reality.
He could feel her emotions with her tight hug as if she was scared to lose him. He inwardly chuckled at how he did not follow his own timeline and rushed to her. He was almost dying with the thought of waiting for a few days and finally, he could not take it any longer, so he ran back to her, ignoring the decision taken by himself to stay away from her for a few days to let her realize and sort out her feelings in his absence.
After some time, Rui pulled Cali to sit on the couch. He was still cuddling her while there was only silence between them.
Cali felt so comfortable in Rui’s arms as if this was her home that she had been waiting forever since! She was so happy that he came back soon because she thought he would be gone for too long because of what she did.
"Are you mad at me?" she suddenly asked.
