Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

She was doing fine earlier on the carousel, but she came questioning him as soon as she came down.

"What do you mean?"

Pouting, Mashauva retorted, "You said I'll always be a kid to you."

"Yeah, what about it?" Bruno didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he didn't get what she was upset about.

"Have you forgotten what you promised me?"

"Huh?"

She thought they needed to discuss the matter, but she was too self-conscious to be direct about it; she was rather young after all. Besides, she grew up an innocent girl; even after she understood what love was, she was still extremely abashed and inexperienced.

Hence, she only stared at Bruno, not speaking.

"What is it? Tell me."

With that, he poked her forehead. "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Frustrated, she looked up at him and said, "Since you've forgotten about it, there's no point for me to say anything, is there?"

After speaking, she turned to run away, but Bruno grabbed her by her hand.

"What do you mean there's no point? And what did I forget? Didn't I already do what I promised?"

Bruno paused at that and lowered his voice.

"I'm still single even now. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're the one who said I can't find a girlfriend until you're an adult, no?"

His words got her stumped for a second.

It seemed to have been so. She had thought Rosalie was Bruno's girlfriend, so she made him promise not to find a girlfriend at least until she was an adult, thinking it was only fair to her so. She had to admit, he was right.

"Hmm?" Bruno asked again, seeing that she wasn't speaking.

Only then did she nod awkwardly.

"So what do you mean by I've forgotten our promise? Care to explain? Hmm?"

After a long silence, Mashauva raised her head and said, "Earlier, you said I'll always be a kid to you. Does that mean I'll never have the chance with you?"

Who would like a kid?

Who wouldn't, of course, but it definitely wouldn't be that kind of affection. That was what she was upset about.

"That's it?"

"What do you mean that's it? Isn't that enough?"

"So you're saying I can't spoil you like a child?" Feeling helpless, he reached out, wanting to ruffle her hair, but as soon as he placed his hand on her head, he realized she had her hair done. He would mess it up if he ruffled, so he only ran his hand down, gently tugging on a strand.

"And who said you don't have a chance?"

Mashauva's eyes lit up, hearing that. Just as she wanted to say something, he had already grabbed her hand, taking her away, "C'mon, let's go on another ride."

At that, she wrinkled her nose and couldn't help biting her lower lip.

She couldn't understand what Bruno was trying to do. He was asking her, yet he wouldn't let her answer.

"What do you want to go on next?"

Mashauva looked around but found nothing that piqued her interest. However, he had said he would accompany her for the entire day. After some deliberation, her words were already at the tip of her tongue when Bruno beat her to it.

"Shall we ride the Ferris wheel?"

Blood drained from her face at that, and she reflexively wanted to shake her head.

"C'mon, I'll go get the tickets."

Bruno went to buy the tickets without her consent once more. She stood rooted to the spot, somewhat helpless as she sat the whole ride alone, in desolation.

It was already a challenge for her to come to the amusement park, let alone go on the Ferris wheel.

Besides, Bruno would definitely not join her. She'd have to sit the ride alone...

As she let her imaginations ran wild, Bruno had returned with two tickets in his hands.

HA!-.

H

C mon.

She was rather surprised to see him holding two tickets.

"You're riding the Ferris wheel with me?"

"Can't I?"

Mashauva shook her head. "Of course you can. I just didn't expect you would."

"There are a lot of children on the carousel; it's not convenient for me to join in, but the Ferris wheel is different. We can both sit in it. C'mon, let's line up."

Now that Bruno was joining her, she thought she didn't feel so disturbed anymore.

At least she didn't have to watch the person she liked being with someone else while she sat on the ride alone this time.

After they got their tickets checked, they got on the Ferris wheel.

There were adults accompanying children to ride on the Ferris whee too, but more couples than that. The people in line before and after them happened to be young couples. en.swhovels.net

After getting on the Ferris wheel, Mashauva sat down nervously. Bruno noticed that her hands were sweating, and a tinge of pity flashed across his eyes. He gripped her hand a little tighter and pretended to ask inadvertently.

"Nervous?"

"N-Not really."

She wasn't actually nervous. The first time she rode the ride alone, she sat in it foolishly and left after it was over.

As the Ferris wheel slowly rose, Bruno took his phone out to ease her nerves. "Do you want to take a picture? Why don't I take some of you?" Mashauva nodded, "Okay."

With that, Bruno snapped some pictures for her. She looked distracted; unsatisfied with how they turned out, she asked for them to be deleted and reshot. Then she suggested, "Bruno, why don't we take a picture together?"

"Okay."

Mashauva took out her phone and suggested, "Use mine."

She then opened a trending camera app. It was said that the filters inside could automatically make anyone look even better. She only downloaded it after being recommended but had never used it.

What better time than then to give it a try?

Seeing that she opened a pink app, Bruno narrowed his eyes, "What's this?"

"Um, it's a camera app."

Mashauva turned on a filter and chose some clip art. With that, a pair of cute cat headphones and whiskers appeared on their faces on the screen.

They instantly looked adorable and lively.

"Oh, so this is how it is," Mashauva exclaimed. It wasn't just her; Bruno was also surprised.

"Quite cute."

They then took a wefie before moving on to other filters. They ended up taking quite a few pictures.

Before they knew it, the Ferris wheel had risen to its peak.

Bruno's gaze darkened at that, suddenly telling Mashauva.

"Do you want to know what will happen if you close your eyes when the Ferris wheel reaches its peak?"

Stumped, she turned to him only to hear him say, "Close your eyes."

His gaze at that moment was brighter than the stars at night, his voice, deep and alluring, tugging at her heartstrings. To that, she closed her eyes obediently.
