Another Day

During the holiday season, Christmas specifically, it can be hard to be away from family and friends.

#AnotherDay

They welcomed the New Year in their living room
enjoying their love and watching the fireworks in the sky. It
was snowing and the view from the sixth floor toward the
trees on the streets was breathtaking. The firs and the
houses were like white minions that looked tired from the
weight of the snow on their branches and roofs.
“Happy new year,” Linda shouted.
“Happy new year, Mrs. Hanton,” he said and kissed
her lips.
“Thank you for the best winter holidays of my life,
Mr. Hanton,” she whispered and became emotional. Tears
of happiness and relief ran down her cheeks. She finally
felt serenity. Limitless love had blanketed her heart and the
cold feelings had left far away.
“You’re welcome, baby. Although I have to admit
it’s my pleasure and it’s my goal to make every single day
of our life better till we reach perfection.”
Stephen meant his words; he was determined to
offer his soul to see her eyes glowing.
“I wish all the people in the world were as happy as
I am right now. This is definitely the best day,” she said.
“I thought your best day was when you married
me,” Stephen said as Linda laughed and put her fingers on
his head, pulling his hair away from his big eyes.
“You are right; it’s the second best day of my life.
The best day was when I was born.”
Stephen was sure he was not going to win; she was
able to think of the best answer to make him freeze. Of
course, that was one of her biggest assets, something extra
that increased the respect of a charming personality.
“I think this is not the best dialogue we could have
during the first moments of a new year,” he said and smiled
while his forehead touched hers.
