Chapter - 2

Luna: Did you make them?

Matteo: Yes I did. Do you like it?

Luna: It's perfect. You're an awesome cook.

Matteo: I really appreciate it.

Luna: No worries.

A few moments later, the silence was beginning to become awkward so he thought of breaking it by surprising her.

Matteo: Hey Luna?

Luna: Yes?

Matteo: I have a surprise for you. Close your eyes.

Luna: Okay.

As soon as she closed her eyes, he pulled out a set of her favourite books.

Matteo: 3....2.........1 ...open your eyes.

Luna: *gasps* How'd you know?

Matteo: I know everything about you.

Luna: Oh yeah, I forgot. But still, thank you very much I really appreciate it. Btw how much did those even cost? I can't accept it if it's too expensiv-

Matteo: Don't worry about the price. Take it as the first gift to you after our wedding.

Saying that, he pulled her into his embrace and kissed her temple showing affection. She blushed but felt comfortable cuddling against him.

Moments later, she started falling asleep in his arms. He noticed it and picked her up in a bridal style then went towards her room. He laid her down on the bedding and tugged her in the sheets. After making sure she's comfortable and deep asleep, he kissed her forehead and left the room closing the door behind.

Later that evening, she woke up and exited her room. He was in his office room, probably working so she thought of not disturbing him. She went down to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. Hearing her footsteps, he got up from his desk and exited his office, going towards the kitchen.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. She went to open the door. To her surprise, it was none other than her own bff, Amanda Di Mauro.

Amanda: Where's he?

She asked, getting straight to the point and stepping in.

Luna: Where's who?

She replied without any idea.

Amanda: Your husband.

Luna: Wha-

Matteo: For what reason do you want to meet me and who are you to her? How do you know her?

Amanda: How dare you steal my girl?

Matteo: What makes you think that you can call my wife your girl?

Luna could sense the tension between them so she tried to calm them down but it was pointless to even try.

Matteo: Please stay out of it, sweetheart.
