Chapter 362: More Than Enough
Ram looked at himself in the mirror and exhaled loudly. Today, he would bring Chelsy to a movie and will be meeting her after a few days since she was busy with school and suddenly felt unwell too, and he didn't want to disturb her in her rest.
So they just talked on the phone during those days. He actually asked Chelsy about the things she wanted to do, and she ended up sending him a long to do list of hers through text message.
He chuckled alone, recalling how she jotted down so many things in a minute and sent over…
"How come I never thought to make such a list as well?" he murmured out of curiosity since it seemed so fun doing it, but then he smiled because he realised he was so content with what he had already, that the only thing that was actually on his list was to become a grandfather.
But then that list was already granted too, so there was nothing more to ask for...
His mind then went back to Chelsy. He did not even think of the possibility of a new love to knock on his door. But he was glad that he was experiencing this kind of feeling once more in his life.
He somehow felt he was back to his younger days, experiencing the same tingling feeling of being in love when he was with Chelsy.
He was treating Chelsy as an unexpected blessing from above. And he was hopeful that this time he would succeed and would not end up in a total failure at love like how he failed with Clarie.
"Stop thinking like that Ram… It did not end up in complete failure because you were granted with two beautiful, filial and adorable children…" he scolded himself with a smile.
He quickly looked at his wristwatch, then left the room so he won't be late in picking up Chelsy.
He passed by butler Dan who sniffed him and sincerely commented, "Sir, did you bath in your perfume?"
Ram quickly sniffed himself and murmured, "Did I spray too much?"
Butler Dan nodded, so Ram quickly walked back to his room to change his shirt while he instructed, "Wait for me there!"
He went out again and asked butler Dan, "Still smell too much?"
Butler Dan shook his head and gave him a thumbs up sign.
"Thanks…" Senior Sy commented as he rushed down to the exit door.
Butler Dan chuckled. His boss rarely put on a man's cologne, and now he did it too much. He was glad to see his boss in a blooming mood after all those years because his boss deserved this dash of happiness in his life.
Meanwhile, Chelsy kept looking at the clock. She was so excited that she got ready and started waiting for Ram early.
Ram was going to pick her up and take her out for a movie, a movie date, she could not help but feel the butterflies inside her stomach in chaos.
This feeling was nothing new though… She was always like that whenever Ram was with her or when she was waiting for him, just like now.
Senior Sy soon arrived in her apartment and they left to stroll inside the biggest mall in the capital city.
While they were strolling, Chelsy could no longer take the tiny bit of distance between them and the constant brushing of their hands was almost making her crazy, so she took the initiative of grabbing Senior Sy's hand and calming her heart down.
"By the way, Liam did so well in slamming those reporters that day." Chelsy commented to make a conversation and besides, she wanted to applaud how great Ram's son was.
"Yeah. Everyone is scared of that brat and I hope whoever is responsible for this will soon learn some lesson and would never again mess with him and his wife. He is furious and would make sure the one responsible will get his own doom." Senior Sy proudly responded.
He was shocked and nervous when that scandal hit the news headlines, but seeing how his family got together and handled everything so smoothly, he felt at ease.
He also went and met Ana to make sure that Zhao's group was doing fine and his in-law informed him that Miley assisted her all the way and dealt with the reporters who landed at their office to create trouble, so Ram felt so proud of his three children including Jorge who always had been a son to him.
"He is your son, so it's expected of him to be great since he has a great father." Chelsy silently commented.
"By the way, how's your stomach?" he asked because they were not able to go out for the past few days because Chelsy suddenly had a stomach ache as well.
He wanted to take her to the hospital but Chelsy refused, saying it was just nothing but normal to her and she had already taken her medicine.
"You still look pale though… If you're not comfortable with me accompanying you to hospital. then I will ask Miley to go with you," Senior Sy commented.
Chelsy leaned on his shoulders and whispered, "I'm usually pale. I have used a lighter lipstick shade today, so it probably enhances it.
Stop worrying about me, because I'm already fine, really… This is nothing. I just need to take my medicine and I will feel better in three to five days."
Senior SY was not convinced, so he decided that later he would ask Miley to handle Chelsy's health checkup since his daughter had the gift of convincing people in her own ways.
"Ahh, this feels so good. Walking with you hand in hand like this," Chelsy whispered.
She was not aware that Ram's heart was drumming hard in his chest. He inhaled and exhaled to calm the rapid beating of his heart. There were people walking around the mall, but Ram felt like they were the only ones there.
"Which movie do you want to watch?" he asked because the name of the movie was not mentioned in her list.
"I love romance, but I'm flexible. I like to watch everything so let's go to whatever you will pick." Chelsy responded.
Senior Sy noticed Chelsy was walking too slowly, but then he too preferred it because they were holding hands and she was hugging his arm.
He wondered if he could hug her inside the cinema. He was too old-fashioned, and hence he was hesitating to make the first move.
He was actually glad Chelsy was making it easy for him because whenever she initiated, he was able to gather the courage to reciprocate.
"Ram…" Chelsy whispered when they were almost near the cinema's entrance.
"Yes?" Ram asked.
Chelsy hesitated and said softly, "I love you…"
Ram's face turned deep red. He was taken aback with her candid words in the open space or probably because he was too old-fashioned so he was too surprised.
Then he heard her chuckle and say, "Don't stress yourself. I can feel you are tense. You don't need to reply back to me whenever I say those words to you. For me, staying like this with me is more than enough."
