Chapter 119 - All of me

" Exactly, we are here to celebrate so let's do that." Rocky said.

" Mr Jones, Mrs Jones please make yourself comfortable." Uncle Herpi said.

Dragging uncle Herpi to a corner, uncle Thomas said," Herpi they? How? Silvia-"

" Thomas relax okay? Silvia is safe." Uncle Herpi said.

" What if they know?" Uncle Thomas asked.

" I don't think so they know. Maybe it's just a coincidence okay? So don't panic." Uncle Herpi trier his best to calm his friend down.

" They don't know you right?" Uncle Herpi asked.

" I never met them back then." Uncle Thomas said.

" Then what are you worrying about? Just relax and enjoy." Uncle Herpi said.

….

" Did you get it?" Kevin asked.

Chris nodded his head and said," Yes I did but I won't give it to you unless you say 'Chris is great and handsome' three times."

Rocky chuckled and said," Hey we used to do this all the time when we were young."

Chris grinned and said," I know right. So Kevin you have five minutes otherwise you won't get your thing."

Taking out his phone, Kevin scrolled down a bit and said," Okay fine, you don't have to give me that thing. I can do what I want to do some other day but what will happen if I show Martha this photograph saying that you did all kinds of lewd things with this girl when she wasn't around." 

Chris frowned and said," Hey that isn't true. I was totally drunk and you people made that woman take advantage of me but I pushed her away and-"

" Well, Martha doesn't know that." Kevin said.

" You-"

" Now you have five minutes to give me that box otherwise-"

" You are such a bully Kevin." Chris said before taking out a red velvet box from his pocket and shoving it in Kevin's hand.

Placing the box inside his pocket, Kevin patted Chris' shoulder and said," I guess I have to keep the photo to tame you from time to time mate."

" Hey Kev, what are you planning to do?" Rocky asked.

" Something special for my beautiful wife." Kevin said.

" Oho lover boy is on fire today." Rocky said.

" Hmm, let's talk about the Jones now. I am a hundred percent sure that they are related to sister-in-law someway." Chris said.

" Let's not talk about that for now." Kevin said. Though he was curious too but he didn't want to think about it today and spoil the moment.

When Kevin saw Silvia looking at him, he excused himself and started walking towards her.

Wrapping his arms around her waist, Kevin asked," What happened?"

"Martha was saying that you booked this entire banquet hall for the night." Silvia said.

" It's your birthday honey stop thinking about other things and enjoy." Kevin said.

Silvia sighed and said," But it wasn't necessary. A small get-together at home would work too and-"

" If you don't stop talking, I'll kiss you." Kevin said.

Pushing him away, Silvia said," There are so many people here."

" Aren't they just friends and family? So what are you shy about?" Kevin asked before inching closer.

Smacking his arm, Silvia said," Kev behave." 

Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, Kevin said," I have something for you."

" Another gift?" Silvia asked.

Kevin chuckled and said," You can say that."

" Hey Kev, Sil come here." Rocky shouted who was already sitting on the table along with others.

" Come let's go." Kevin said before grabbing her hand and walking towards the table.

…..

As soon as Kevin and Silvia sat down, the waiter brought wine for everyone.

After serving the wine when the waiter left, Kevin got up and said," I would like to raise a toast to my beloved wife."

Turning towards Silvia, Kevin smiled and said," I wanted to tell you this for a really long time but I was waiting for the right opportunity and time and then came your birthday."

After taking a deep breath, Kevin said," Everyone in this room knows about the complicated circumstances in which we got married. I know when you married me, you did not have high-well I guess you had absolutely no hope from me or this marriage."

Silvia chuckled and said," It's not like that."

Kevin sighed and said," You don't have to lie darling. Like it's understandable because we did not have any romantic encounters, we did not go on romantic dates before getting married, no romantic gifts and to top all that up, I didn't even give me a wedding. Everything was so chaotic and messy when we started this relationship but everything is so different now." before grabbing her hand and stepping out.

Holding both her hands, Kevin smiled and said," After staying with you and being with you, I have realised that marrying you was the best decision I have ever made in my life Silvia. You are one of the cutest and sweetest person I have ever met and I am glad that I met you."

Pausing for a while, he continued," You brought light in my life and made me realise how beautiful life can be when you have someone by your side whom you are willing to spend your entire life with. I was a lost person when you married me Silvia and look at me now. You helped me change for good."

Kevin then chuckled and said," You might be wondering why I am saying all this right? That also in front of so many people." Pausing for a while, he continued," I am saying all of this in front of them because I want everyone to know how I feel for you and how much you mean to me." 

Intertwining their hands together, Kevin said," When I married you, I never thought that I would ever have feelings for you Silvia. I never thought that a day would come when I would not be able to live without missing you even for a single day."

Everyone gasped when Kevin got down on his knees and said," Leaving everything that has happened in the past and leaving all the bad memories behind and after spending the most beautiful time in my entire life with you Mrs Austin, I can proudly and confidently say that I have fallen for you so deep that there is no way I can come back or erase the strong feelings that I have for you in my heart. In my life, starting from the day I married you, it has been just you and nobody else and it will forever be only you. You are and will forever be the only woman that owns all of me and my heart."
