Chapter 7: THE GIFT
Chapter 7: THE GIFT
Sarah was stunned. She grabbed her phone and went over to her window. Charles was outside,
standing in the middle of a burning heart-shaped firework. He saw her in the window and shouted,
"Sarah, I love you! Happy birthday!"
As it all began to sink in, Sarah realized that she couldn't possibly feel sorry for herself for both her
sister and her lover had remembered her birthday and cared for her. Clearly, Charles had just wanted
to give her a surprise. Suddenly, she began to cry. Hearing her cries down the phone, Sophia asked,
"What's the matter with you? Why are you crying?"
She quickly explained what was going on to Sophia and told her she would call her back later. Once
she had hung up the phone, she ran downstairs to greet Charles.
Charles smiled and opened his arms, waiting for Sarah's embrace.
Then when Sarah ran into his arms, he immediately picked her up, spun her around, and kissed her.
The burning fireworks were so beautiful, illuminating the dark night and reflecting their romantic love.
They stood in the heart-shaped fireworks and kissed so passionately that they forgot there were people
passing by them.
At this point, Sarah was so moved that her heart felt as though it was going to fly out of her chest.
Therefore, when Charles hugged and kissed her, she couldn't help but hug him as tightly as she could.
At that moment, no part of her resisted the contact between man and woman, only wanting to
experience this happy moment fully.
After a long time, Charles loosened her, breathed softly with his forehead against hers, and asked, "Are
you happy?"
Sarah sighed, looked at him deeply, and nodded.
Then Charles asked, "Are you moved?"
Sarah nodded again with tears trickling down her cheeks. She couldn't remember a time when she had
felt this happy before. It is a happy thing when there is someone who cares about you and does
beautiful things for you.
Charles gently wiped her tears and asked softly, "Sarah, do you really love me? How much do you love
me?"
Sarah looked at him intensely. She didn't know quite what to say, but hugged him tightly and said,
"Charles, I care about you. I really care about you."
She didn't know how to express her thoughts, just repeating that sentence again and again. She loved
him with all her heart, but she had no confidence that a man like him would treat her with such love and
care. Thus, her love was full of fear. But tonight, after seeing all he had done for her, she began to
convince herself that perhaps that was all unnecessary.
Charles looked into her eyes and said, "You always doubt my sincerity, but tonight, have you truly felt
my love?"
Sarah finally nodded and hugged him tightly, "Charles, thank you."
Charles smiled happily.
They hugged until all the fireworks had burned out. Noticing how many people had stopped watching
them, Sarah felt shy and nuzzled into Charles. Chuckling, Charles said, "Aren't you going to ask me to
come upstairs?"
Sarah quickly grabbed his hand to take him upstairs, but Charles said, "Wait a minute." Then, he went
back to his car and retrieved a big cake and a bunch of flowers.
Sarah shyly took the flowers and sniffed them. Then, they took each other's hands and went upstairs
together. Sarah was so shy as if she was a high school student who was secretly dating her crush. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
When they got back into Sarah's home, Charles took out another big bag of things. He handed a paper
bag to her and said, "I have spent a long time choosing this, and I've finally picked this one for you.
Hurry, see if it fits you or not."
Sarah took the bag and found a beautiful dress inside it, made of a divine silky material. She looked at
Charles doubtfully. He smiled, "Hurry, try it on. Let me see if it looks beautiful on you."
Sarah took the dress and went into her room. But the moment that she opened the bag, she hesitated
because the skirt was, in fact, a suspender skirt. She looked at it for a while, then went to try it on. As
expected, her chest was half exposed. Looking at herself in the mirror, she saw how glamorous she
was in this sexy red dress.
