A Lifetime With You by Athrhteera

Chapter 104 Alena

It was my first day of going back to work and I felt really excited I had woken up early to prepare breakfast for both Matteo and I which he seemed to be surprised about because it had been awhile since I had the opportunity to prepare his breakfast. I was finally feeling like myself again after awhile and it was great

Matteo also woke up early today but that wasn't a surprise, he had always woken up early for work. However, he decided to wake up thirty minutes early than usual. "Good morning, baby." He said, leaning in to kiss my check.

My cheeks began to heat up at the feeling of his soft lips against my skin. I smiled at my dear husband before I grabbed a few slices of bread and a scoop of scrambled eggs for him; they smelt delicious and I could feel my stomach grumbling in hunger. "Morning. Would you like a coffee?" I asked, heading to the coffee machine.

"That would be nice. Thank you,"

It didn't take me long to pour him a cup of coffee before handing it over. Instead of taking the cup of coffee and having a sip, he grabbed onto my hand which caused me to move forward towards him. Our bodies were now inches apart until he decided to pick me up and let me sit on his lap.

Luckily enough, I didn't spill the cup of coffee when he had grabbed my hand.

Matteo had slowly placed the coffee down on the kitchen island as he continued to look at me, a smile never leaving his face. It had brought a smile to my own face as well but also a frown because I was a little bit confused at how happy he seemed this morning. "Are you okay?" I asked, wrapping both of my arms around his neck.

He nodded, "I'm good. Why?"

""You're a bit different this morning. That's why I asked,"

"I'm feeling a little bit energetic."

""Why is that?"

"I don't want to jinx it but I feel like our lives are back to normal. I missed our old routines," he replied as he remained smiling, eyeing my every features.

When I first met Matteo, I was always self-conscious whenever he stared at me. At that time, I knew a perfect man like him could never find me attractive even though I had always received compliments about my features but as time passed by, I loved it whenever he stared at me.

He was staring because he admired my beauty. He wasn't judging my imperfections.

I smiled at him, "I missed it, too."

"Nknow you're going to be really busy with work after this and I won't bother you when things are hectic but this time, it's going to be slightly different. We're going to focus on you and the baby more, okay?"

Losing Marco was always going to be a lesson for me because we both knew it was a mistake we never wanted to repeat. I was
