"Sweetie, close your eyes."

The moment Andre saw Mia emerge from the office door, he was stunned.

"Mia, are you here for me?"

"Aw, just close your eyes, would ya?" Mia cooed.

Andre hung up the phone as a doting smile appeared on his face. He did as she said and closed his eyes.

Mia brought the bouquet of roses she had been hiding to her chest. She stepped forward, tiptoed, and planted a light kiss on Andre's face.

The kiss was gentle and quick, like a feather brushing across a calm lake, but it left behind ripples that didn't fade quickly.

Andre's throat bobbed as he slowly opened his eyes.

What greeted him was a vibrant bouquet of roses, their color more intoxicating than wine, their fragrance seeping into his heart.

Behind the roses stood his Mia.

Mia was smiling, looking even more beautiful than the flowers she held.

She had left Andre speechless again.

Andre had been through all sorts of storms and faced them with calmness. It was only after getting married that he realized there were still many things that caught him off guard, and they all had to do with his wife, Mia. A bouquet was set before him, a gift from his Mia.

"Sweetie, I bet you've never received roses before. Here, these are for you." Mia handed the flowers to Andre.

When Andre took the flowers, his palm felt a sudden warmth.

He, a man, had actually received a bouquet of roses from his wife, Mia.

With one hand holding the flowers and the other around Mia's waist, Andre leaned down, close to Mia's cheek, and asked, "The romantic date you mentioned this afternoon, was it with me?" "Isn't this a surprise for you?"

Mia hooked her arms around Andre's neck, looking into his shining eyes as she answered.

Andre's throat bobbed again, "Close your eyes."

Mia obediently closed her eyes, and the next thing she felt was the warmth on her lips.
