It was their anniversary, anything was allowed, anything positive of course.
She made his favorite dish. His love for Coconut rice was something else.

” Alright Bae. Your dress is amazing. Please tell me you are my anniversary gift” he said boyishly.
She found herself blushing. “Well, you’d have not to be silly, our meal is getting cold”
Twenty minutes later, he was downstairs. She had carefully selected what he had on. It was an amazing evening wear. Cream colored shirt on a black trousers.
She dished their meal. After saying the grace, they began eating, she watched him eat. “Oh God! He was perfect!”. She was indeed lucky. “Thank you for the gift darling, I love it” She said happily.
“It is nothing bae, your happiness is my priority”. She could feel the sincerity in his voice
