Allyce laughed at the smug look in his eyes: “It’s just a night out, it’s not like it’s a secret, why are you so secretive?
However, Severo suddenly squared his shoulders and said: “I don’t want anyone to disturb us”.
Allyce’s gaze faded, her heart fluttered slightly and she replied softly, “Hmm”.
Severo loved her approving look, cupped her chin and gave her a peck on the lips, as if that wasn’t enough, and drew her back into his arms.
Allyce struggled a bit: “Well … someone …”
The two were in first class, and although the other passengers were sitting in their seats and could not see what they were doing, it was a communal occasion.
Severus didn’t listen to what she had to say, and with a single push of his arm, he had her firmly in his embrace, his broad body almost covering her entire body.
But it’s good to see that Severo still knows how to stop and doesn’t mess around on the plane.
When she pulled away from his lips, as if to express her displeasure, she also nibbled lightly on his lips.
His breathing had become a little unsteady and he whispered in her ear, “It’s not convenient”.
Allyce patted his arm with some irritation, but was immediately caught by Severo, who put his hand to his lips and kissed it, “Next time, it would be better to have a private plane ride, just the two of us, to do whatever we want.”
Allyce’s eyes widened and she said in a suppressed voice: “Let him go!
Earlier I had thought Severo had been too tired for a while and needed rest, but now that I saw how oiled he was, he couldn’t be tired.
As if he hadn’t heard, he continued: “I meant what I said, what do you think?
“I think your brain needs cleaning, there’s too much dirty stuff in there!” Allyce finished with a grunt and turned her head to the side.
Severo looked at the pale side of his face and reached up to fix his long hair.
She used to have curly hair and this year she hasn’t been to the hairdresser much to take care of it, just a few trims. Her hair is still long, but it has gradually regained its natural softness and smoothness.
With her long, naturally straight and sleek hair, she looks even more docile.
Severo found it hard to remember what it was like when he faced him.
Only, whatever it was, it was his favourite.
He looked at her and his eyes misted up a little.
…
After a five-hour flight, the two arrived at their destination.
Severo booked the hotel in advance but brought nothing with him.
It says it’s a hotel, but it’s not.
The island is not a popular tourist spot, with very little development, a small population and not many tourists, and the hotels, although there are some, are not good.
As an island, its inhabitants are mainly fishermen.
The island is also a treasure trove of fruit trees, with fish in the shallows and a pleasant climate.
And the place Severo had booked to stay was a bit of a surprise for Allyce.
Surprisingly, this is a residential property on the seafront.
The residence is a two-storey building, which does not look very luxurious, but from the flowers and finely manicured trees outside the courtyard walls you can see that it is very cosy.
“I had already checked out those hotels and there was nothing special about them and the atmosphere was mediocre, so I overlooked this guy’s house and thought you might like it, so I contacted them”.
Severo stood next to her and spoke up to explain: “I didn’t expect it, they actually said yes, like…”.
“Mmm.” Allyce nodded, liking it.
“Mr. Severo!”
The owners of the house soon came out, a very friendly elderly couple.
What Allyce found a little surprising was that the elderly couple, with their exotic faces, also spoke English.
“You’re from Z too?” Allyce was a little surprised to be abroad. There was always a bit more of an affinity when you met Z people.
“Yes, we are from Z. When Mr. Severo contacted us, apart from the fact that he was more sincere, we said yes, considering that you are also from Z. What a beautiful pair of wallflowers, and this is your wife?”
It is the old woman who speaks, her hair is white but her eyes are light and she seems agile.
Severo spoke: “This is my wife”.
“Grandma, you can call me Allyce. “The old woman seemed very kind and Allyce liked her.
The old woman squinted at Allyce before saying in rapid succession, “Yes, yes! That’s good.
He then pulled Allyce inside, “Come inside with me, you must be tired and hungry after such a long flight, I have prepared food for you, after you eat, go have a bath and get a good rest, then ah, we’ll go fishing …”
The old woman is not only bright-eyed, but also walks very well and speaks quickly, sounding a lot of words like a firecracker.
Allyce smiled grimly; this old lady must have been a thunderbolt when she was young.
She walked a little before patting her head and turning her head to Severo who followed her, “Severo ah, follow my old man to get something, it’s clothes and toiletries for you …”
“Pfft …” Allyce laughed with little affection.
Severo?
I have never heard anyone call Severo that before.
He looked back at Severo and found him motionless with a slightly confused look on his face.
Allyce followed him and shouted, “Severo, go and get the stuff”.
Severo’s eyes narrowed and he moved his lips, saying wordlessly: call him husband.
Allyce lifted her chin, growled at him and followed the old woman.
…
The old woman is getting older and, although she is still in good spirits, all her senses are still deteriorating, and the scrambled eggs are either bland or salty.
But both Allyce and Severo said nothing and ate it all up quietly.
After eating, Severo added: “It tastes good, thank you grandmother”.
Allyce was a little surprised, she had rarely seen Severo so well behaved.
It was back in the room when Allyce asked him, “Do you like your mother-in-law very much?”.
Severo didn’t say a word, a brainstorm of ideas to tidy up that he had brought back from his previous visit to the old woman’s house.
All of this was prepared with the help of two older people I had asked before arriving.
He said he asked the two older people to help him get ready, but he actually found a clothing shop on the island, contacted it, bought it and asked them to deliver it to his house.
It was a moment before Severo said, “They’re fine.
The tone was flat, but Allyce could hear the deep affection in his voice.
It is a rare moment to see Severo so excited.
Allyce came up and hugged him from behind: “We can come back more often if you want, I like it here too.
However, the words went unanswered from Severo.
“I’m talking to you.
“Hmm.”
