Element Of Surprise

From the moment, Shui Xian's eyes had fallen on Raelle's face, his smile hadn't died down. If anything, his smile only grew gorgeously. He didn't even notice himself that he had been smiling like a fool and she wasn't even around him. At times like these, he was truly thankful for the advancement of technology. At least, he was able to see his wife and hear her voice.

When he continued to just look at her in silence, Raelle couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at?"

"You," he answered honestly.

"I can see that," said Raelle. "But why? Is there something really interesting on my face that you keep looking at it?"

"I wish I could let you see yourself through my eyes," he told her. "Only then you'd understand why I keep looking at you like a fool."

"Like a fool?" repeated Raelle. "So, my husband is a fool now?"

Shui Xian nodded his head, "I really am a fool. Why else did I give up the perfect opportunity to be with you earlier?"
