Chapter 61
He looked at Jane's lovely face, as she peacefully slept, her face was placed against his chest, with her hands on his shoulders, a position she always loves to sleep in. He used his finger to remove a stray hair from her face, as her hair bonnet should be lying somewhere around the room, not that it could have still remained on her head, especially not with the type of lovemaking they had last night.
Jane stirred a little, making Rayford have a clearer view of her full breast. This was his wife in all her glory, and he loves every bit of what he sees, a view that he would never get tired to behold for the rest of his life.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Jane slowly opened her eyes.
"You are a beautiful sight to behold by beautiful wife"
"awww.. okay, now I'm blushing" she smiled at him.
"You should my love" Rayford kissed her on her forehead, and then gently separated her body from his, so he could stand up, making Jane grumble.
"Where are you going? It's too early to be out of bed" she complained, making Rayford laugh as he strolled across the room. They were already back from their honey, but they still basked in the honeymoon euphoria.
Jane propped her head on her left hand, as she stared at her husband who walked butt naked around their bedroom, something she wished, she had the boldness to do.
Rayford walked back to the bed, holding a small box wrapped with a ribbon, and handed it over to Jane.
"What is it?" she asked with curiosity.
"You would have to open it, to find out" he said smiling.
Jane opened the box, and found a car key in it. "Is this what I'm thinking it is?"
"Yes it is, I know you can't drive yet, so Solomon will have to be taking you around, until you have fully learnt how to drive"
"oh Rayford, thank you so much" Jane hugged him.
"You are welcome"
"I can't wait to see it" Jane screamed gleefully.
"Then don't, let's go see it"
As Jane stood up, she gathered the duvet with her, using it to wrap around herself, so she could look for something to put on. Something Rayford has been telling her to stop doing, but she has refused. So this time around, he quickly grabbed the duvet from her, making Jane yelp in embarrassment, as she was left with nothing to cover herself.
" Rayford…. what did you do that for?"
Rayford slowly stood up from the bed, and walked over to where she was, and took her hand. Jane who looked like she could kill him with her stare, reluctantly gave him her hand, as he led her to the large mirror in their bedroom.
Rayford stood behind Jane, and placed his hands on her shoulders as they stood facing the mirror together, Jane tried looking away, but Rayford turned her face back to the mirror.
"Baby, please look at the mirror"
Jane stared at her own reflection in the mirror.
"I want you to look at your body, and see how beautiful it is, baby you have a body to die for. And it hurts me, when I see you trying to cover it up whenever I'm around, simply because you are ashamed, or don't feel confident enough about it. Why would you be ashamed of a body as beautiful as yours?"
"I'm not ashamed of my body, I am just being…." Jane couldn't finish her statement, for she knew Rayford was right, she wasn't proud of her body, she has never been once known to be comfortable in her own skin. Something Rayford has been preaching about, since they got engaged. He was able to recently convince her, to stop rushing to have her clothes back on, immediately they just finished having s*x.
"You remember that morning in the kitchen, when you walked to where I was cooking, and took off what you are putting on, and we made love in the kitchen?" Rayford whispered into her ears, reminding her of the day, she had suggested they get married.
"Yes, I do" Up until this day, Jane still can't explain, what it was that got into her that day.
"I considered that very hot and sexy, I love that part of you Jane, I love every inch of you, and wouldn't want you hiding any of it from me please. You are beautifully and wonderfully made, so, you should feel confident in your body, and should walk with confidence too, because you are my woman, and I love you"
As Rayford spoke, Jane stared at herself in the mirror, taking in every inch of her body. She stood there believing every of Rayford's word about her body being beautiful, and she felt every negative thought, and word, Mr. Okafor had said to her about her body not being beautiful enough, disappeared. Rayford is her husband, and she believes every word he is saying regarding her body. She truly has a body to die for.
"Baby, you are crying, what is it? Is it because of what I said? I'm sorry I...."
Jane turned around, and hugged him. "Thank you so much Rayford"
"Ehh, what is going on?" Rayford asked, still confused at why she was crying, and thanking him.
Jane pulled out from the hug, and kissed him, slowly and passionately. Rayford could feel her pouring herself out to him, it was as if something had been unlocked within her, and whatever it was, Rayford was the one who had the keys.
Jane took Rayford's hands, and drew him towards the bed, and when they got to it, she slowly pushed him unto it.
Rayford obliged every of her move, with a smile on his face. Whoever this his new wife has become, he was definitely liking.
Rayford carried his wife's limp body into the bathroom, where they showered together, after which they dressed up, and went downstairs to see the car he had bought her.
