DELAYED GIFT'S

AUTHOR POV

"What is this envelope?"

The A4-sized chocolate envelope was shaken with a back and forth motion because Nadine was curious about the contents.

Adrian said, "You open it yourself!"

Nadine then immediately tore off the top of the envelope that was glued with adhesive. After opening, his hand was inserted to grab the contents inside.

"Tickets to Switzerland?" Nadine looked at it carefully to be sure. Afraid that he might see it wrong.

"Hm." Adrian answered with a deheman. "We and our family are going on holiday there. Only four. Me, you, Kian, and Kai.

"For what, all of a sudden?" on the other hand Nadine was happy, but on the one hand she was also confused why she was suddenly invited to go on vacation to Switzerland. It's beyond his reasoning.

"nothing. I just want to get you three there. Yes, although in fact this is one way to realize the desire that was delayed," replied Adrian again.

"What kind of delayed desire does that mean?" Nadine is increasingly interested in hearing her husband's story.

He closed his seat. Easing the distance between each other. The woman looked at her husband seriously as if implying her immense curiosity.

Adrian explained, "I have a plan, h+1 after Christmas, I intend to take you to Switzerland. I was thinking, it would be exciting if you gave birth there. I had permission from the doctor here. You are allowed to board the plane even if you are pregnant."

Nadine was silent. Glancing at Adrian, then his gaze refocused on the sheets of paper he was holding.

"Seriously? How could I not know?" Nadine chuckles in disbelief. "Why didn't you ever say the same to me? We've never had this conversation."

"It's just a wildest dream. But over time I took it seriously. I was really obsessed at the time. Principle I, whether or not, Kian and Kai must be born in Switzerland at any cost." said Adrian full of confidence.

"I managed to maintain a visa secretly so as not to be caught by you. I also prepare health insurance as a guarantee so that you can give birth abroad. Finally, I even booked a room to the hospital in Switzerland and consulted with an expert doctor there who handles your delivery later," he said at length.

"Wow, I'm just speechless right now..." Nadine did not expect that her husband was up to the totality of doing everything.

"Maybe it sounds a little bit overwhelming. But that's the truth and I won't be ashamed. Unfortunately, my expectations are not in line with reality. Not even 9 months, you have to give birth faster than the initial time stipulation."

Adrian chuckles if he remembers his silly behavior, while his hands outstretched to give a gentle swipe on Nadine's cheek. "But that's okay, I'm happy either way. For me, the most important thing is that you and the twins survived. My feelings are calm and relieved enough,"

"When the Christmas holidays and the new year yesterday, we will not go anywhere because we focus on recovering you and the twins. So I think, our time has finally come. To go on a vacation as a whole pack." continued Adrian again.

A sweet smile broke out on Nadine's lips. He thought, how can Adrian always say that he is not the type of romantic man but acts like this.

"I do really appreciate for everything what you've done. But the kids are still little, baby.we can't take them there now."

"The twins were born prematurely. The doctor advised them not to travel anywhere first. Because their immune condition is different from other children today."

Nadine actually hates to destroy Adrian's plan that has been carefully prepared from far away. But conditions are not possible.

Adrian embraces Nadine's shoulder and strokes her arm. "I know Nad, so it's not going now. Should wait about 3-4 months ahead."

"Yes, why are the tickets booked in advance if the departure is still long?" there's just this Adrian, Nadine thought.

"Intentionally, so that it can be prepared. You know I'm super busy. So anything it should be prepared from now on."

"You are different from the men out there, always have unique thoughts," Nadine said. "But by the way, you really fell for a vacation by using a commercial plane. You have your own private jet, don't want to use it?"

"It's okay sometimes, a vacation like a civilian?" chirps Adrian. "No bodyguards, no helpers, no babysitters, just four of us."

Nadine hooked her hand on Adrian's arm and rested her head on her husband's shoulder. "I had no problem getting on a commercial plane. Instead I like the idea of such an intimate holiday, just us and the kids. You must also be the message First Class ticket, so it is equally comfortable. I wonder what the reason is!"

"The continued use of private aircraft is not environmentally friendly and can trigger climate change and global warming."

"Well, why is it so serious about your talk?" Nadine pinches soft sixpack Adrian belly.

"It's not strange, it's actually so. If we travel on a commercial plane, count us in terms of climate protection" Adrian said.

"Yes.yes.yes, whatever you want, I follow!" Nadine was made resigned to the thought of Adrian. "What is that to say? What a gift, isn't it?" Nadine pointed at the small wooden carved box above the nightstand.

Adrian immediately picked it up because the box was right next to him. "Yes, this is also a gift. Just open it!" his orders.

After opening Nadine found the box contained two keys with infinity hangers.

"What key is this?" Nadine groped the little key while analyzing it deeply.

"I just bought a resort and a beach house" replied Adrian lightly.

"WHATTT?!!!" nadine's eyes were wide. "Is this for real? You're joking..."

"I'm not. You can see the letters are in the drawer."

All over Nadine was limp," Wasting a lot of money on you!"

"There is no term to waste money. That's good for our children's future investments."

This is the part that Nadine likes the most from Adrian. Always make decisions unilaterally. Never asked him to discuss. Indeed, the money belongs to Adrian, but occasionally Nadine also wants to be involved.

"Where do you buy the property?" asked Nadine lazily. He still regrets Adrian's own attitude.

"If the beach house is in Ibiza. For the resort I bought in the Grindelwald countryside."

Nadine gawks in disbelief. Her jaw dropped down to hear the husband's statement. Does Ibiza exist in Spain? And what does Grindelwald mean in Switzerland? Nadine just wanted to faint. His brain felt full thinking about all this.

Owekkk.

Owekkk.

The sound of sobs crying baby who roared his daydream.

Tokks.tok..

The sound of their bedroom door being knocked from outside. Followed by the sound of crying sounds that sounded so clear.

Chequek..

"I'm sorry to interrupt Madam's time, it's a constant crying. Sinta and I could not calm them down. I've already given bottled milk, but it seems they don't want to, Nya." said Aunt Magda.

"Yes it's nothing Bi, here love me. Maybe they'll drink right from the source." Nadine stretched out her hand to hold the little guy.

Assisted by Adrian who followed behind, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder to shoulder Kian's tiny body and Kai who was immediately taken into the room.

"Thank you Bi, Sinta, for taking care of Kian and Kai while I'm not around."

"Together Madam, we'll excuse you." Aunt Magda and Sinta bowed respectfully then resigned themselves.

Nadine now shifted her focus to the baby. Maybe next time, he will try to talk again to Adrian about the resort and beach house.
