Once he was at home, he called Ilona and invited her to go to the cinema. She accepted. It was a very romantic film and after leaving the cinema, they stayed there for a while commenting. Both of them felt very joyful and they were hugging quite a lot but without kissing each other. It looked if though there were afraid of kissing.

Chester saw her home and they dated for next day.

Ilona thought that Chester had a special relaxed look but she did not know why.

When he picked her up next day, he asked her where she wanted to go to. She said that she liked the Maritime Avenue because the sunsets were very pretty there.

It was then that Chester told Ilona about his life; from his childhood until now.

Ilona was very sorry for him that he had lost his mother at such a young age and she caressed his cheek.

They did not know how it happened but certain moment they were kissing. It was a very loooooonnnnggg kiss.

One hour and lot of kisses later, Chester took her home by taxi.

Next day, they met in the park and it was there that Chester asked Ilona to go steady.

She didn’t think it over a long time and said “yes”…

They were enjoying walking hand in hand without worrying if Cynthia would be observing them.

Chester said: “Hey, you still haven’t seen my new home. In spite of being a traditional house, the interior has been adapted to modern life.”

Ilona laughed: “It’s only a few days ago that you bought it, so it’s quite normal that I haven’t seen it; but… alright… let’s go to your new home.”

She liked his house very much and meanwhile Ilona did some exercises with the TV program, Chester prepared them something to eat.

Afterwards they watched TV. They didn’t really watch it because they were hugging and kissing all the time.

It was late and Chester said: “heavens, I should take you home or… wouldn’t you like to sleep here tonight?” Ilona said that she felt very comfortable and that she didn’t feel like going away. She said: “all right, I will stay here with you tonight.”

They had a shower and later on they chatted a bit and hugged but then happened what you probably can imagine: it was raining little hearts on the bed.

After a long night filled with love and passion, they woke up and Ilona said that she could prepare breakfast but Chester told her to rest a while more and that he would prepare her a very special breakfast. It really was very special: Breakfast with Diamonds.

Both were still in pyjamas; well, only Ilona because Chester never had liked pyjamas and he used to sleep in underwear. Then like in a romantic film, Chester kneeled for her and he asked her to marry him, offering a big diamond ring.

Her eyes opened wide because, she didn’t expect this proposal that soon. She laughed with joy and said: “of course I want to be your wife”.

Chester felt that his heart was too big for his chest and he feared that she perhaps would regret her decision, so he asked: “When…. Today?”

Ilona: “Oh boy, do you really want to get married today? At least give me the time to go to the hairdresser and to buy me a wedding dress.”

Then Chester asked her “where?” but he himself gave the answer “in the same place where I have told you my life history. I will leave my past behind me and you yours. Both of us will start a new adventure: marriage”.

It was afternoon when they were dressed up very nicely and making their vows. They were adults and had enough experience in life to know that the step they had taken would be for the rest of their lives.

They looked dearly to each other and they almost could drink the love that emanated from their eyes.

THE END
