Next morning Sarah woke up early. She slept the whole night in Anthony's arms. She smiled at his sleeping look and thought to herself " I promise you Anthony that I will fill your life with tons of love. I will shower you with all the love you deserve , baby. I love you." She kissed his lips softly and got down from the bed.
"What special should I make for you baby?" she murmured to herself while checking the groceries available in the kitchen. "Should I make him a heavy or a light breakfast?" Sarah wondered and then finally decided to make a fusion breakfast.
She prepared various items , which probably was more than enough for two people. After an hour Anthony came down fully dressed formally and looked with his eyes wide open at the breakfast buffet that was laid on the dining table.
Eggs Benedict with Hollandaise Sauce , Eggs Baked in Tomatoes, Bacon, Egg and Cheese Muffins, French Toast Sticks, meat and cheese pies, Cinnamon-Roll Pancakes and Anthony's favorite vanilla coffee latte , was waiting to be savored. "Have you prepared all this to feed entire Boston?" Anthony asked amused. Eggs Benedict was his favorite and he got started with it. Unable to eat more , he asked Sarah " Can you please pack the rest? Max will go insane to have a feast on this. Besides he keep's complaining about his wife's culinary......" Anthony's sentence was cut by the ring of the door bell. " Who had come at this time ?" Anthony asked curiously .
"Someone you know" Sarah replied as she rushed to open the door.
"I smell delicious" came Max's voice. Looking at a surprised open mouthed Anthony , Max continued " What? Sarah is my friend too. Not only you are entitled to ravish this delicious breakfast. " He sat down without being formal and started stuffing his plate with each of all the dishes.
"I asked him and Rihana to come for breakfast " Sarah said looking at the confused Anthony.
"Hey Max, where is Rihana by the way?Max, Maaaxxxx." she yelled as Max was engrossed eating, completely ignoring rest of the world.
" Yum , Sarah, you are love," Max finally managed to say something . "Leave Rihana, she was still sleeping when I left. Besides seeing this wonderful buffet she might get complex. You know how she is. The jealous kind. Yet I love that woman."
Anthony smirked and looked at Rihana who got confused at Max's words.
"Oh" is what Sarah said confused at whether to talk more about Rihana or just allow Max to eat to his heart's content.
" Well, tea or coffee?" Sarah asked Max
"Definitely tea ,man. I liked my morning to start with a great cup of tea, something which is rare in my life nowadays." ." Max replied munching on a muffin.
Laughing and shaking her head at Max's one liners, Sarah went to the kitchen to make him tea.
As soon as Sarah disappeared Max whispered to Anthony "See my advice is working for both of us. You got the best wife and I get bonus like today's breakfast."
Anthony rolled his eyes. "Its a pity I cant get rid of you." Anthony joked.
Max grabbed a pie from Anthony's plate and immediately stuffed it in his mouth. "Sorry man, this pie is too good for you to have."
Anthony kicked Max mentally and cursed him. "No doubt Rihana avoided coming . How can she live with a pig like you, I wonder?" he mocked Max.
Looking at their childishness, Sarah felt happy and satisfied that finally she had been able to make Anthony smile.
She joined them and was shocked to see that the food was almost over.
"Sorry Sarah. This is what happens when you invite a poor, hungry man over food." Max apologized to her making a puppy face.
Sarah laughed out loud . "You are such a drama queen, Max."
Seeing Sarah happy, Anthony felt little light. " I want you to be happy , Sarah" he thought.
Soon both Max and Anthony left for office, in their respective cars. With a great breakfast both felt pumped up as if they were ready to take over the world.
By 4 p.m. Sarah was waiting outside the airport for her sister, Bianca to arrive. Finally after 20 minutes of waiting Sarah saw her sister coming out in a baby pink Hoodie and black leather skinny pants paired with black ankle boots. She had highlighted her hair in flaming red and was looking absolutely stunning.
Smiling at her Sarah thought "My little sister has really grown big and stylish".
Seeing Sarah, Bianca ran to hug her. "Oh Sarah, my i***t sister, you came to pick me up. Just my luck."
"What to do , my sister managed to grow up but it seems she lost her mind long ago " Sarah joked .
Handing her luggage to Sarah, both the sisters proceeded to the parking joking and pulling each others legs.
After half an hour of driving, they reached home. Looking at their house , Bianca's jaw dropped. She was dumbstruck looking at their beautiful home and the serene garden.
"Are you sure, you are not checking me in some resort? This is too good to be true." Bianca asked as they walked through the garden.
When she walked inside, Bianca's mouth opened widely as she inhaled the view of beautiful interiors.
"Right now am so jealous of you Sarah. Can I live here permanently?" Bianca pleaded making a baby face.
"No." Sarah replied thinking about the chaos Bianca would create.
"So mean you are Sarah. I hate you." Bianca pouted at her sister.
Settling in one of the guest room, which was designed in Victorian decors, Bianca freshened up and toured the house and the garden.
She settled on the swing inside the gazebo still in awe at the beautiful scenery around her. "Perks of being an architect couple" she thought.
Sarah brought coffee and handmade cookies on a tray, and settled on a chair beside Bianca.
Both sisters chatted about old times, when they heard Anthony's car drive in. All of a sudden , Sarah stood up in alarm and rushed back inside.
"What happened to this girl? Is she afraid of her husband or what? Nahh, Sarah is not the person to be afraid of anyone" Bianca thought confused at Sarah's reaction.
"Hey brother-in-law. How are you? You look in perfect shape." Bianca hugged and greeted Anthony as he walked through the garden.
Taken aback by such warmness Anthony spoke "Am good. How are you and how is your mom?"
"Mom's busy and me finally free from her jurisdiction," Bianca laughed.
Together they both went in , while Sarah was busy preparing dinner. Looking at her sister and husband bonding, Sarah felt relieved.
While having dinner, Anthony asked Bianca "So, what's your plan? For how long you are going to be at Boston? I heard you want to pursue tourism?"
Bianca answered cheerfully " I don't know about Boston, but if in my hand I would rather hijack your house then to move to any other place. Yup I want to pursue tourism."
Sarah gave a light smile and silently had her food.
After wishing Sarah and Anthony goodnight, Bianca crashed into the guestroom and soon fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
When Sarah came to their bedroom, Anthony was working on the laptop. She sat on the bed hesitating to speak.
Anthony noticed her uneasiness and asked , his eyes still on his laptop screen " You want to say anything?"
Sighing Sarah replied " Yes. Don't mind Bianca's nature. She is just an immature girl." Pausing for a second she asked "I hope you didn't mind her staying with us?"
"Hmm, no." is what Anthony replied. But Sarah didn't buy his words.
She felt Anthony wasn't much happy about her sister's stay.
Having nothing to say, Sarah laid on her side of the bed and felt asleep soon as she too was tired from the day's work.
The first person you remember after you wake up and the last person you think about before sleeping is the core of your universe. That’s where the heart is.
