Chapter 626: RE-CREATING THE MEMORIES II

When Stefan got out of the shower and saw his wife, he changed his mind. He didn’t want her to wear the same clothes anymore. Last time, she wasn’t his girl yet but he already felt irritated when people eyed her. He took another set of clothes and gave it to her.

“I’m going to change to this?” Cayenne questioned, befuddled with his actions now that she was all dressed up and ready to go.

“It’s better to go there with matching outfits. They’ll know you are mine with one look.” Stefan countered, grinning happily with his idea.

Cayenne just made an ‘oh’ sound and followed his instruction. She could only smile helpless at her husband who ignores the word possessive. You would probably see his name next to that word if you open your dictionaries.

Just like last year, they visited Rosalia’s Garden. They took pictures together before leaving to see the adventure park where they had horseback riding. This time, instead of riding a horse, they just walked while following the trails. They weren’t in a hurry, just enjoying their quality time with the nature as their witness. From time to time, people riding horses will slow down and greet them, just the basic sign of respect when they see someone on the trail.

When they reached the peak, they saw someone resting on the same rock where Cayenne sat last time. A horse was also tied to a tree, giving the animal some rest.

“Yo! Do you want to rest here, too?” the young woman asked when she saw them.

.....

“It’s fine. We’re not very tired.”

“You walked quite some distance.” she replied.

“Yeah. It’s been a while since I hiked that much. It feels good.”

“Husband and wife?”

“Yes.” Stefan answered the question cheerfully. “Can we borrow your horse for a while? Five minutes should be enough. I can pay you as well.”

“It’s fine. I’m here for the view.”

The woman watched Stefan untie her horse and help Cayenne get on top of it. He pulled the horse to a certain spot and took a picture of her. She thought Cayenne was beautiful and also took a picture of the couple with Stefan aiming his camera to his wife.

Another thing she noticed was the four people wearing civilian outfits not far from them. When Cayenne and Stefan stopped, those four people stopped as well. They don’t seem to be dangerous but you can never really tell. Even the most innocent-looking children can commit crime.

Stefan finished taking Cayenne’s pictures and decided to take photos of themselves. He wanted to have selfies with her.

‘Aren’t they sweet?’ The woman thought while taking photos of the couple. There was a sad smile on her face but she was genuinely happy for them.

“Thank you for allowing us to use your horse.” Cayenne said when Stefan went to tie the horse again to a tree.

“No big deal. Also, I took few shots of you and your husband, do you want to have a copy?”

“Really? Yes, I’d love to.”

“Can I upload them as well?”

“I need to ask my husband for that.” Cayenne said while opening her phone to receive the pictures from the woman. She didn’t get her name but they acted rather close for strangers. It wasn’t really bad and Cayenne was fine with it. “What’s your name, by the way?”

“I’m Elia.”

“I’m Cayenne and my husband is Stefan.”

“Hmm. I think I heard your name from somewhere.”

Cayenne just chuckled and didn’t say anything about herself. She didn’t want the woman to think that she was bragging for being Stefan’s wife. “You are not from the country?”

“Nope. I came here for vacation.”

“I see. I hope you enjoy your stay.”

“I’m having fun so far.”

“What are you ladies talking about?” Stefan asked when he approached them. He took a peek on Cayenne’s phone and saw some pictures that he didn’t take. Also, he didn’t use her phone when taking pictures earlier so, he concluded that it was the woman who secretly took them earlier and sent it to his wife. “You have good photography skills.” he commented upon seeing the photos.

“It’s because the subjects look good.”

“I appreciate the compliment.” Stefan replied smugly which made Cayenne roll her eyes at him.

“Her name is Elia. Oh, she’s asking permission if she can upload the pictures on her account.” Cayenne introduced and recounted the conversation to her husband.

“That’s fine. I won’t lose anything with just that.”

They talked for quite some time but Elia could no longer keep her thoughts regarding the four people who were watching them. She was worried for the couple who seemed to be followed.

“I...uh...do you perhaps know those people?” Elia asked in whisper, hoping that the four men won’t hear the words she asked. She looked really suspicious of them.

Stefan looked back and found the guards standing few meters from them. He explained his relationship with those people which greatly embarrassed Elia but Cayenne only laughed it off saying it was fine. They didn’t want to put her on a difficult position after mistaking the bodyguards for some dangerous people.

After few more minutes, Elia bid her farewell and got on her horse to continue her trip. Cayenne and Stefan slowly walked again, pausing from time to time to check the pictures he took, giggling between themselves and kissing when he likes to. Cayenne didn’t complain at all and she already lost count of the number of kisses she received from this trip alone.

When they got back to the resting area of the adventure park, they saw the horse that Elia used earlier but she was no longer around. Obviously, she left right after she finished her trip.

While resting, Stefan intertwined his fingers with Cayenne while his other hand kept on scrolling his phone. “Hon, do you want something to drink or eat?” he asked even though he wasn’t really looking at her.

“Nope. I want to eat lots of food during dinner so, I won’t eat anything until later. How about you? Do you want me to get you something?”

“No. Just stay here with me. Also, what do you want for dinner? We can drop by the supermarket to buy more ingredients.”

“I’m craving for seafood.”

“Craving?” Stefan stopped scrolling with horrified gaze but then he remembered something. “You’re having your period.”

“Am I not allowed to eat seafood just because I’m on my period?”

“No, don’t use the word crave when you have your period. That’s scared me for a moment.”

Cayenne didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this point. ‘Just how much do you fear me being pregnant?’ she thought with her heads shaking in disbelief. Since, she knew he was thinking about it for her own good, she just dropped thinking about it. There’s no point when her husband won’t cooperate with the baby making process. ‘The condom’s fault.’ Cayenne thought, shifting the blame to something else instead of her husband.
