Can You Mend My Broken Heart?-Chapter 545: The tales of Venice - 3

His hands were now running all around her body. His hands raced to have a feel of the softness of her skin paving a way through that sweater which he had pulled up from her waist. Her milky skin was burning hot under the touch of his digits, and she leaned closer in want for more. They had forgotten how to breathe, they had forgotten that they were hungry. It was pure l.u.s.t that lingered in their eyes, which in fact were shut tight. The sense of touch was taking over them!

As his hands rode up, it was when she m.o.a.ned that he realized that he had gone overboard.

He immediately detaches himself from her, but that takes the resolve of a mountain to do so. His hands were placed on her shoulder, and he was gasping for air, his eyes clenched tight.

"Why would you do that?" she asked a bit surprised with the sudden detachment. Her lips half pouting in longing.

"Because... because I am hungry. Like starving!" saying that he kissed deeply on her forehead. His lips still moist from their kiss before.

Anger, discontent was written all over her face, but she decided to shut it out because she knew that he was doing it for own good, because slowly she could feel her lower stomach giving her jolts.ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

"What happened?" he asked seeing her expression change within seconds.

"I might need a change of... you know!" she said and looked away.

"Take your time," he said and ran his fingers through her hair before she rushed towards the bathroom, and he moved towards the side table to chug on water.

A couple of minutes later when she came out of the bathroom, he helped her wear the jacket that he had picked up for her earlier and then interlocked his fingers around hers and asked,

"Shall we?"

Akira nodded, and they left the room, out into the streets. They could have had breakfast in the hotel itself, but Raymond knew that Akira was more of a small breakfast place kind of a person. SO they take a walk around the Rialto Bridge and soon they see a small breakfast place - Farini and Akira beamed.

"Let's try that!"

"Sure!" he said, and they crossed the road and reached the small breakfast shop on the other side. It was nothing fancy but a small bakery shop with breakfast options.

The first thing that Akira noticed on the menu was colourful bruschetta.

"OMG just look at their topping options!" she beamed and out of excitement she ordered three flavours- Spinach and eggs, Guacamole mess and the traditional tomato and cheese option.

"Too much?" she asked as she saw Raymond looking at her all amused.

He just shook his head and ordered a set English breakfast for himself and added a cup of coffee for himself and hot milk for her.

After the waitress left, she looked at Raymond, the man who never missed taking care of her even for a second and asked,

"You really love me right? Like madly?"

"Is that even a question?" he asked and held her hands in his and then said, "It's called as stating the obvious."

But she didn't reply anything and just kept looking into his eyes. The cool sea breeze started ruffling through her hair, and she looked simply beautiful. He kept looking at her and a sudden thought hit him, and he smiled, turning his face to the side a bit.

"What? What's making you smile?" she asked curiously and her curiosity was obvious as she pulled his palms too in her direction along with her question.

"I was just thinking, how beautiful, innocent and charming our daughter would be, if we have one. She would be like a younger version of you and God I would..."

But his words stopped when he saw a shell shocked expression on her face and suddenly he could see her eyes stinging.

"What? Did I go overboard? Do you not want to have kids? If not then I am perfectly fine with that too. I am sorry, if I spoiled your mood."

But tears kept tricking down her face soon after.

"Akira! I am sorry!"

"Please! Don't say sorry and ruin it for me. I want whatever you said. Even more than that. Just that I never knew if you wanted the same. Our lives had been nothing but a roller coaster ride, so I could never ask you what you had in your mind."

"What do you mean Akira?"

"I want to have a family with you Raymond. Make babies with you. Have a large farmhouse where I can see my kids run and play all day long. I want to have a Sunday brunch where the whole family comes together. I want to plan my life with you, grow old with you, bring a life into this world with you. Something that would be ours and only ours!"

Had it been any other man, he would have been worried about his wife crying in public, about the scene that was being made, but not Raymond.

"Gosh Akira!"

Raymond said and brought her hands closer to his lips and kissed them.

"You don't know how happy you have made me right now."

Akira smiled amidst her tears, and he slowly got up and used his napkin to wipe them away from her face.

Then with a candid smile on her face, she asked,

"Don't tell me you have a name already if you have a daughter!"

Raymond lowered his head a bit, trying to hide his embarrassment.

"You do, don't you?" she asked. Her curious eyes following his lowered gaze.

"Well... actually during the time, I mean just after I gained consciousness but I just couldn't be with you, there was one night when I dreamed about us, I saw us together with a baby girl."

"How was she like?"

"Beyond cuteness. A replica of you."

"Did she have a name? What did we call her?"𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

"Caroline!"

"Don't look at me like that Morpheous! Please!"

Her quivering lips begged, but her ignited breath flamed nothing but sinful desires in him.

"Ask me anything tonight Caroline, but don't ask me to stay away from you." Echoed his raspy voice that made her close her eyes as he cupped her chin tenderly. His smoldering amber eyes were fixated on her lips, aching to touch her softness for just a fleeting second.

But the moment he leaned closer, something got etched on the wall next to her in a hue of yellow and vermilion.

Taking a step back, he cursed.

"You!"

"You need to stay away from me!"

And she saw his amber eyes burn with a flicker of blue!
