My One And Only

“There were only two plates… the kitchen has only limited appliances. ”

Tinsley commented, sitting beside Madison as they opened up the food boxes.

“No worry, Tinsley and I will eat from the same plate… come sit here with me.”

Kian was quick to speak out, tapping his lap for his wife to come and sit on.

Tinsley was well aware of her husband’s mischievousness. So she very gracefully declined his offer.

“I can share with Madison too. ”

“And I do not mind at all… two sisters sharing food… not at all. ”

Madison promptly replied right after Tinsley and Kian at that moment wanted this unwelcomed guest to be kicked out from their humble dwelling.

Tinsley handed him his plate with a vegetable sandwich and beacon. He gave a longing look to his wife and Tinsley knew better to be swayed in by that look.

Madison and she ate from the same plate. Anna Maria had made her favourite sandwich and she was glad to have that old woman still in her life.

All of them ate the food in silence. Throughout of it, Kian’s eyes were plastered on Tinsley’s face and action.

She felt so self-conscious under the scrutiny of his deep gazes. Madison could smell the sexual tension and speed up her eating before hell broke loose right before her innocent eyes.

“Thank you for the food. Give my love to Anna Maria. I miss her dearly and can’t wait for her visit.”

Tinsley said as Madison got ready to leave. She pulled her in for a warm hug.

“I will. She misses you too, worries about you all the time.”

Madison whispered, hugging Tinsley still. She was so happy to finally see her happy and with someone who deeply cared about her.

“I m so happy for you. Take care… you both.”

Madison cheerfully remarked, holding Tinsley’s hands and then leaving right after. Kian closed the door only to watch his wife weeping, standing still, looking down at the floor.

“Hey… hey… what’s wrong?? Why are you crying?? Do you miss her already??”

Kian bombarded her with a train of questions, holding her chin up to make her look at him.

Tinsley shook her head in negative. She was not crying because she was upset… she was but for she was at her happiest, she had ever been in her whole life.

“I m not sad…”, she said, rubbing her tears off with the back of her hand.

” I have never been this happier… getting to know that there are real people who care about me… you, Madison and Anna Maria.”

Her words broke his heart. She was so vulnerable that she never had someone to care about her.

He cupped her face in between his hands, pulling her more close to him than ever.

“I care about you… deeply, madly and crazily. ”

She grinned, listening to him. He caressed her hair with one hand and rubbing her cheeks smoothly with the other one.

“I will always be there for you, Tinsley.”

“I know. ”

She was quick to speak up. It was something she knew in her heart… that he would always be there for her.

Even though he was not present in her life after he left, his memories were there for her to hold onto, giving her hope one day… one day that he could come back for her.

And how strangely he did too. He showed up in that moment of her life when she had no one… no one at all to give her the protection and care only he could give.

And here, they stood today, married and holding each other, staring into each other soul through their eyes.

All of a sudden, his face transformed to a serious, remorse look and that made Tinsley come to her alert mode right away.

“What is wrong??”

She questioned, looking concerned.

Kian was guilty of not treating her right the other night. He remembered the hurtful words he blurted out to her put of sadness of losing his empire.

He had no idea how she could still gaze at him so lovingly, adoring his presence. After all that cruel words, he spoke out, accusing her of his words.

“I… I.. uhh… m sorry for the things I said to you the other night…”

The moment he started, Tinsley’s face turned sore, having reminded him of that awful night back.

“You must know I meant none of them… none at all.”

He quickly inserted, fearing that she might leave him. It was like a sudden hit as if she would leave him right away and the thought was unbearable to him… he was too used to her having around him.

Having her close… it only felt natural then. It was very quick to feel like that but it was something he had not felt before.

The feeling of fear… afraid… afraid to lose her… that she might one day chose to leave him once she saw and knew him… who he really was.

Tinsley replied meekly. She knew he did not mean any of them. He was drunk and grieving his loss.

“And that you must know… I will do it all over again… lose everything just to have you here… with me, in my arms.”

His words made her heart melt. It was her Kian… the one she fell in love before who spoke his heart, never holding back unlike the present one, who always held back onto his heart.

But she knew that with time, slowly and slowly, he would open up to her again just like the old times.

Oh!! How she missed those days back. Only if she could go back to them but she was glad too… be here with him.

“And I do not doubt that one bit.”

Her reply made his lips curve in for a smile. He rarely smiled but whenever he did… it was a sight to behold.

He pulled her in for a hug and she rested her head against his chest mumbling a faint, “I love you!”.

Although her heart cried for not hearing him say it back to her but she was content for the moment.
