Chapter 148: HONEYMOON (7)
Hailee had already heard a slightly disturbing echoing sound when Ramon offered to carry her.
But, never thought that what she would see would be so different from her wildest imaginations.
Well, maybe Hailee was just lacking in imagination, so when the figure of the source of the sound came into view, she could hardly believe it.
"Where are we going?" Hailee asked wide- eyed to her husband who was standing next to her smiling and gently kissing her hair in a whisper.
"What I want to show you can only be seen from up there," said Ramon while nodding toward a helicopter with noisy propellers in front of them.
Even though Ramon\'s voice was so low and amidst the noise of the wind generated by the helicopter, Hailee could still hear it quite well.
"What?" Hailee gasped, startled and turned around to look at Ramon. At first, she thought that Ramon would just show her this helicopter, and show her the whole island from up there, but it turned out that there was something much cuter that Ramon wanted to show to his wife.
"Come here!" Ramon shouted this time, as they approached the helicopter, while the wind became even more harsh and made them unable to hear their own voices.
Grasping Hailee\'s wrist, Ramon walked with long strides toward the person who had been waiting for them there, it seemed that man was the one who had flown the helicopter himself here.
The two of them talked for a while before Ramon finally helped Hailee into the helicopter and sat comfortably on the front seat.
Wait!
Shouldn\'t Hailee be sitting in the back? Why did Ramon ask her to sit here instead? Did Ramon take the pilot\'s instructions wrongly?
Hailee stared in horror at the strange buttons in front of her and didn\'t dare to move as Ramon buckled the seat belt for her, still talking to the man.
A chat Hailee couldn\'t follow at all because of the noise from the helicopter propellers.
After Ramon finished speaking, he then gave an object like a headset to Hailee and walked around so he could sit next to his wife, which meant that Ramon was going to fly this thing.
No, wait! What?!
Hailee didn\'t even know that Ramon could fly a helicopter, because she rarely even saw Ramon driving a car.
"Ramon, are you sure you can fly this thing?" Hailee then glanced at the previous pilot, who smiled sweetly and waved at Hailee. Is that a farewell? She hoped he didn\'t bid her farewell to her life…
Hailee really couldn\'t understand why Ramon would insist on flying this thing alone with her. "Don\'t you want to invite him?" she asked.
"Why does he have to come?" Ramon pressed a few buttons after putting on his own headset. Then he glanced at Hailee, whose face was contorted with palpable fear in her eyes. "Are you afraid that I will crash land this helicopter?"
Hailee heard Ramon\'s voice through her headset. She didn\'t say anything, but from the way she glanced, Ramon knew that this was what his wife was afraid of.
Seriously…
"It\'s okay," Ramon then pressed a few more buttons and grabbed what Hailee believed as the rudder of this helicopter, because after that, Hailee could feel the machine vibrating and start moving. "If something happens, at least we are together, wasn\'t that a good thing?" Ramon then glanced at Hailee who was widening her eyes angrily.
"Ramon!" Hailee hit Ramon\'s arm. "I am still young! There are many things I want to do!"
Perhaps, Hailee\'s problem was not only because she didn\'t believe that Ramon could fly this helicopter, but also because she was a little afraid of heights and this was her first experience.
The helicopter then took off and the sun light flooded their eyes, the light was soft and not too hot it felt as if it was welcoming them.
Luckily, with the glasses that Hailee and Ramon were wearing, it made it easier for them to see the scenery out there.
This is such a perfect day to take a trip like this.
"You can actually fly this thing," said Hailee after she was sure that the helicopter would not fall under Ramon\'s control.
"Of course." Ramon rolled his eyes dramatically at Hailee\'s comment. "I am not on a suicide mission."
Hailee grinned at the man beside her and began to relax as she observed the sea below and how she could see the entire island from this height. It\'s a breathtaking panoramic view and Hailee couldn\'t stop feeling being blown away. Forgetting her fear altogether.
"That\'s your house, right?" Hailee pointed to the white house they were staying in.
"Our home," Ramon corrected Hailee and the girl smiled happily.
"Thank you for taking me to see this," Hailee said happily. If someone saw her now, they would find that her face was much brighter than the sun outside.
"This is not exactly what I wanted to show you," Ramon said as he moved the helicopter in another direction and showed what he had prepared for Hailee.
"Then what?" Hailee asked while still smiling broadly and looking at Ramon enthusiastically. Just for being shown something like this, Hailee already felt that her chest was overflowing with excitement, but Ramon said this wasn\'t what he really wanted to show.
Hailee really couldn\'t wait to see what Ramon really wanted to show her and soon realized that the helicopter was flying slowly.
Meanwhile, seeing Hailee\'s enthusiasm and the smile on her bright face, made Ramon feel that what he did was absolutely right.
It had been a long time since Ramon had felt this enthusiasm and it felt good to feel it again. As if the days after this were going to be much more interesting than just carrying on with a boring routine.
"This is what I wanted to show you." Ramon nodded toward the clearing below them.
Hailee then followed Ramon\'s line of sight and found something that made her cover her own mouth so that she wouldn\'t let out a loud scream because of the shock that enveloped her, when she saw what Ramon had prepared for him.
"Impossible…" Hailee muttered and stared at the writing on the field and took a moment to process all of this.
Down there, Hailee can see an inscription made of hundreds of white balloons that read; will you marry me?
Hailee didn\'t know what to do, whether she should laugh or cry at the writing.
This scene was clearly a proposal scene, where the man said the same thing. But, didn\'t they just get married? Why was Ramon asking her to marry him again?
"Mr. Tordoff, you know that we are already married, don\'t you?" Hailee turned her head and looked at Ramon who had activated the autopilot so he could focus on Hailee. "You are asking me to marry you again?"
"You said you wanted a proposal, so I thought it was a lot better than kneeling on one knee and asking you to marry me." Ramon leaned back and looked at Hailee who looked so beautiful with the warm sunlight surrounding her. "What do you think? You like it? Or do you still want me to kneel on one knee?"
Hailee then unbuckled the seatbelt that was holding her back and hugged Ramon tightly, landing a kiss on the man\'s cheek and laughing softly.
"Of course I like it!" She said into Ramon\'s ear and kissed his lips again. "But I still want to see you kneel on one knee and propose to me." Hearing that, Ramon grumbled in their kiss and Hailee bit his lips softly while muttering, "You didn\'t give me an engagement ring after all."
Ramon laughed softly at that and tapped Hailee on the shoulder lightly to tell her to backaway a little, so that she could see what was in Ramon\'s hand.
It was an ivory white jewelry box and Hailee didn\'t have to guess what was inside.
Really, life was shocking and confusing, and what Hailee and Ramon are going through was something out of the ordinary.
They met in conditions that couldn\'t be called normal and went through marriage before Ramon finally proposed to her.
And after this proposal, it felt like Hailee and Ramon would start a genuine relationship.
Their relationship order is the opposite of most people, but Hailee hoped they wouldn\'t end up being two strangers after all they have been through…
==============
"What is your relationship with Hailee Tatum?" Aidan narrowed his eyes at Giana.
His wife was stuffing some clothes into a suitcase. Looks like she was going to go somewhere for a few days. "And where are you going?"
Giana threw her clothes into the suitcase and folded her arms across her chest, showing how defensive she was feeling? now. "You don\'t need to know my business and you don\'t need to know where I am going."
Since last night they returned from Ramon and Hailee\'s wedding, either of them didn\'t seem like they were in a good mood and it had absolutely nothing to do with matters involving each other.
And this morning, Giana decided that she couldn\'t just stand by, or else she would go crazy.
"I am your husband!" Aidan growled loudly. Standing up and walking up to Giana with his jaw clenched together. This anger actually had nothing to do with Giana, but they both knew that they were just taking it out on each other.
"My husband?" Giana said that with a sneer. "You have never acted like my husband and never will be."
