My recent days

My recent days have been filled with so much love, warmth and security. WE spent the weekend prior to my birthday in Bintan. The weather was not really helping much as it was raining most of the time. So we spent most of our time indoors watching tv, going for spa treatments, enjoying meals at the restaurant and simply taking walks around the resort and by the beach. We simply enjoyed each other's company. The time was so sweet. Somehow, it seems sweeter than the past. Or put it another way, our love for each other seems to be getting sweeter with every passing day now.

Often, I saw smiles on his face as he makes fun of me every now and then. I used to mind the fact that he often crack jokes on me. Now, it does not seem to matter anymore so long as I see the smile on his face.

I wanted to have dinner at Kelong and he went along. He finally had to try eating the crabs using his own hands. It was fun observing him as he clumsily tried to get the flesh out of the many pieces of shells. Still, I pampered him by giving him the pieces of crab which did not need so much working on. We had a wonderful dinner. The food was great. The setting was great: a table by the water with the sea breeeze blowing the entire time.

The pace of life was slow and relaxed. I brought my notes but did not managed to look at them much as I was trying to take in the moments as much as I can.

We talked and chatted about our future together: our new place, our plans to have children, our plans to move abroad.

I totally enjoyed my time with him in Bintan and we took really nice pictures. Nice in the sense that I can see myself smiling radiantly.

Finally, someone who loves me, cares for me, gives me warmth, understands me, protects me and shows me that I am not unwanted or invisible.
