We drove to an underwater-themed restaurant. One could see a mermaid the moment they entered the restaurant. The visual effects were extraordinary.
Since we had made a reservation prior, the waiter took us to our private room.
The inside of the private room also felt like the ocean. The place sparkled and there was many beautiful fish in the glass on both sides. We admired them while we waited for the other two.
Some time passed before the two arrived, late. They put all the bags, large and small, in their hands on the table. "We got all these for you."
Looking at the things on the table, I was surprised. I took out sexy-looking pajamas from one of the bags. "Cindy, did you choose this?"
She nodded as if it was but a certainty. "Yes, there should always be a little bit of fun between husband and wife, otherwise things will get boring."
I pursed my lips and put the pajamas back. "Unfortunately, I'm pregnant so I can't wear this."
"It's alright. You can wait till after you give birth." Cindy was in high spirits when she spoke. It seemed that her vacation with Zedd had gone well.
Theo took down the bags and put them on the chair to the side. He then turned to them. "You guys called us the moment you came back. I suppose you have something good to announce?"
"Yes, yes. You two look so happy, is something good coming?" I echoed Theo's words.
Cindy rarely blushed. She glanced at Zedd shyly. "Why don’t you tell them."
She looked like a shy bride.
Zedd nodded. He looked at us with a smile of fulfillment on his face. "I proposed to Cindy, and she said yes."
Theo and I looked at each other, then laughed at the same time. "Congratulations, your wish has finally been fulfilled."
