Again, the Qiandra was glued to the sight of the garden that was their destination. They were indeed heading to the park, after that Qiandra agreed to continue their steps and left the luxurious living room earlier. Qiandra again could not say a word as she looked at the garden before her.
The park is not too broad, but there is a fish pond with a fountain in the middle and equipped with a mini waterfall on the edge. So that the splashing sound of water was clearly heard filling the air in the park. A small gazebo is also in the middle of the park which is again equipped with a table and luxurious pads with soft velvet as the seat.
All the flowers that adorn the garden are the favorite flowers of the Qiandra. Starting from the white roses that adorn the edges of the garden, there are also orchids that are even fairly rare near the gazebo. Various colorful mini flowers also decorate along the path that divides the park.
The ground in the garden was covered by green grass that looked quite thick yet so neat.
And what makes Qiandra really surprised is a collection of mini bonsai made in such a way that it forms a love with the name Qiandra in the middle. Qiandra gaped and immediately covered her mouth with both hands, upon seeing all of that.
“Daniel ...” desis Qiandra lost another word.
“I'm sorry, Qi, this is all I can do to meet the model of your dream garden, hopefully you are not disappointed” Daniel said with a hopeful face.
“Daniel, this ..., this is amazing, me, me, me, jeez I don't know what to say” said the true Qiandra confused by all that a Daniel had prepared for her. The woman could only stare in awe at the state of the park that had indeed been the garden of her dreams all along.
Daniel only smiled with satisfaction when he saw the woman he loved so much that he was amazed by the garden he saw today. Daniel had indeed prepared all this even he specifically brought in architects to make this park in accordance with the drawings that Qiandra had seen.
Qiandra slowly entered the beautiful garden, even she reflexively opened her footwear and started to step barefoot. Qiandra stepped slowly, passing every map that became a path in the beautiful park. He enjoyed the fresh air that blew by carrying various fragrant aromas of flower flowers from the garden.
Daniel just followed the steps of Qiandra, he was so happy to see Qiandra being able to enjoy the garden. A happy smile continuously adorned the handsome face of the blue-eyed man. Daniel felt even more satisfied, as Qiandra even took off her footwear as she stepped into the park. Daniel knew that such a Qiandra meant that the woman was really enjoying the state of the garden.
The park for Qiandra is a second favorite place after the beach, Qiandra always felt like she could relax while in both places. Qiandra stepped slowly towards the gazebo in the middle of the park. Then Qiandra sat in the gazebo while watching the various orchids that were blooming and spread a distinctive aroma that so calmed the heart of Qiandra.
Daniel followed Qiandra and sat down beside the woman, he did not comment anything. Daniel let Qiandra enjoy everything in the park. For the man to see Qiandra like that alone had made him happy.
Qiandra finally turned around and looked at Daniel closely, “Daniel, tell me honestly, how can you do all this for me while you know you can't necessarily get me” Qiandra asked.
Daniel smiled, “Qi, I told you, I will not care if you can be mine or not, because for me, being able to fulfill all your dreams is a happiness and satisfaction for me. Especially when I see you so enjoy all this and very satisfied, I already feel very happy” replied Daniel.
“But Daniel, all this is too much, it must be very expensive. I can't accept any of this, it's too, too precious for me” Qiandra said hesitantly.
“This is of no value compared to you, Qi, you are so precious to me. You know, ever since I met you, my only goal in life was to have you and make you happy. Even though you never cared about me, I was happy enough to only be by your side” said Daniel gently.
“But Daniel, this ...” Qiandra has not had time to finish the word he said. Daniel arrived to stand up and rest in front of Qiandra, making the woman jerk, “Dan ..” exclaimed Qiandra almost stood so surprised by Daniel's attitude.
“Qi, I just want to prove how much I love you, even if you never care about me. Therefore please, give me this opportunity in this little time to make yourself happy. At least, if one day I really can no longer get close to you, I have good memories when with you” said Daniel.
“Daniel ...” Qiandra grabbed the man's hand and grasped it tightly. “I'm sorry, I'm sorry I couldn't live up to your expectations, if I could make and force my heart to love you, then I've been doing it for a long time. So please, don't keep torturing yourself and myself in the hope that it won't come true” Qiandra said gently.
“Qi, look me in the eye, and tell me that there is absolutely no hope for me to get your heart. Say it honestly with your heart without thinking about anything else out there” Daniel said in a voice full of pleas.
Daniel returned the Qiandra's grasp tightly, the male's eyes locking onto the two beads of the beautiful woman's eyes. Qiandra sighed for a moment, “I'm sorry, Daniel, I don't want to give you false hope. I could have pretended to accept your love, but I couldn't, because I knew it would hurt you even more if you knew it one day. I really don't want to hurt you any more. My inability to accept your love alone has made me feel so guilty to you” Qiandra said with great earnestness.
Qiandra looked directly at Daniel's two beads, and without hesitation she answered the man's question. Qiandra really wished Daniel would accept all of her words and stop expecting him. Because Qiandra did feel very guilty for all the suffering that Daniel had felt all this time for expecting himself.
“Then what should I do, Qi, you know it is not an easy thing to kill a taste that has been growing in the heart for many years. What should I do, Qi, I really love you and want to make you happy. You know everything I do, from good things to criminals like this I travel just to have you”, said Daniel with sadness.
“I, I don't know what else to do, Daniel, or can you think of me as your brother, love me as your brother. You also know that I have no one in this world, so will you be my brother” asked Qiandra. The idea of being Daniel's younger brother flashed through the woman's mind as Daniel asked her what to do.
“No, Qi, I can't, I can't just be a brother to you” sis Daniel. “Because you still have sister” he continued in heart.
“But, Daniel ....” said the word Qiandra was cut because Daniel arrived standing up.
Qiandra was slightly astonished by Daniel's attitude, yet she couldn't argue either. The air in the park was indeed getting colder because the day began to turn into night. And Qiandra was also slightly shivering as indeed the clothes she was wearing were slightly exposed.
“Hmmm, alright” Qiandra said in the end.
Daniel extended his hand to Qiandra, albeit with some hesitation. However, it turned out that Qiandra this time received the man's helping hand. Daniel felt quite happy, he clasped Qiandra's cold hand. “I'm sorry, Qi, it took you too long outside until it got cold like this” he told the woman.
“Don't worry about me, Daniel, you know I've been through much more extreme circumstances than this” Qiandra said as she patted Daniel's hand with a sweet smile on the man.
However, Daniel's steps suddenly came to a halt, he turned around and faced towards Qiandra. Daniel pulled the woman's body until it hit the chest of his field. Daniel immediately grabbed onto the woman's body tightly making Qiandra completely shocked.
“Daniel ...” pekik Qiandra.
“Please, Qi, let me hold you for a minute” whispered Daniel in a voice full of supplication.
Qiandra took a breath for a moment, finally she let the man hug her body without returning Daniel's embrace. Daniel kissed the head of the Qiandra, and inhaled the fragrant scent of the woman's hair. The aroma that has become opium for a Daniel, which is able to make Daniel calm and feel peaceful.
Just for a moment, as he said, Daniel was only briefly hugging Qiandra. The next few moments in had already let go of her embrace gently.
“I'm sorry, Qi, and thank you for giving me a chance” Daniel said gently.
Qiandra did not know what to say, all of that was so fast for her. I don't know, when I was in Daniel's arms, Qiandra could feel such a soothing warmth. And as Daniel let go of his embrace, Qiandra involuntarily felt heavy. However, Qiandra remained silent and resigned as Daniel clasped his hand again and led him back into the villa.
“Gosh, why can I feel so peaceful in Daniel's arms, such a warm feeling. Jeez, Qi, sober, aware, you are not a single woman anymore” hiss Qiandra in her heart.
When he arrived at the edge of the park, Daniel suddenly released his hand from the hands of Qiandra. Qiandra was quite surprised, yet she was even more stunned when she saw Daniel take his footwear. Gently the man grabbed Qiandra's foot and put on the woman's footwear.
“Daniel ...” his Qiandra is completely wrong with all Daniel's actions.
Daniel did not say a word, he simply smiled at Qiandra. After putting up the Qiandra footwear, Daniel stood up again and grabbed Qiandra's hand and held her again. They stepped in silence as if immersed in their own thoughts and feelings.
When they were back in the luxurious living room that was so admired by Qiandra, Daniel opened his voice. “Qi, for dinner, do you want dinner in the room, or just outside” asked Daniel still in a soft voice.
“Hmmm, can we eat in the dining room only” asked Qiandra doubtfully, “I've been cold enough if I have to eat outside again. But if in the room continue I also feel bored” he said trying to give an excuse.
Daniel smiled again, “Alright, Qi, wherever you want, I will have the waiter prepare our dinner in the dining room” said Daniel.
Daniel pressed the intercom near the luxurious sofa they were sitting on at the time, “Prepare dinner in the dining room” he exclaimed at the maid in the villa.
As Daniel looked back at Qiandra, he saw the woman already standing up and walking towards a buffet cabinet that was in the room. Qiandra was again glued when she saw the photo on top of the buffet. All the photos were photos of him that even Qiandra himself had forgotten when and where.
“This ...” Qiandra did not know what to say to Daniel who was walking towards her.
“This is all your pictures I took, Qi, so these are all your pictures taken from the direction I was standing. And all of these photos have their own history to me, a history that was engraved beautifully during our two togetherness. Well, even though only I enjoy all the togetherness, but all that is enough to make me happy” said Daniel.
“Gosh, how can I not know at all if you ever take a photo of me” exclaimed Qiandra was amazed by everything Daniel did.
“Hmmmm, of course you don't know, Qi, because indeed you never paid attention to me. You are always serious and want to do everything perfectly, so you often do not care about the circumstances around you. But me, there is not one small thing that does not concern me if it concerns you” Daniel said.
Qiandra could only hear Daniel's words, and again she felt guilty. Qiandra had indeed never cared too much about the surroundings, she only wanted to work perfectly. So that Qiandra always ignored the surrounding situation, Qiandra did not want to care about anything people said about her. At that time, all that was on Qiandra's mind was how he could make a lot of money to meet all the needs of the Charles family.
“I'm sorry, ...”ucap Qiandra on Daniel. But the man only smiled at Qiandra, he had never bothered about such a thing. Because Daniel has enjoyed enough and feels happy because he can capture every woman's best moment while with him.
