Chapter 11
Mich is busy picking a blessed day for her daughter to marry. She began browsing in the internet for references. 'Busy enough' to be called by her husband, Shane. He can't help but sigh looking at the woman in front of her. He tried calling her.
"Baby..."
"Hmmm?" Mich replied though her face still on her tab.
"Have you decided it yet?" he asked in a worried tone. His forehead started to curl. He wanted to sulk when he's not getting her attention.
"No, not yet. I can't find any suitable date for the wedding." she's about to get stressed. Her head is starting to ache. Shane noticed this and moved swiftly at her back and began ma.s.saging her forehead. "Thank you baby." she said it sweetly and looked at the man behind her.
"Why don't you relax for a bit?" suggested Shane, still ma.s.saging his wife's forehead. "How about we head out? I found a nice place. It has great food too." he added. He wanted to divert his wife's attention and he successfully did.
"Yes, you're right. I should relax." Mich got up from the sofa and head towards their room. She freshen up and put on a s.h.i.+rt and a skinny jean. She looked younger than her actual age. She
Shane nodded at her. He grab his car keys on the table.
They drove towards the south. During the whole trip, Michele went back to browsing from the internet. Shane glanced her from time to time. Mich had furrowed her forehead. He shook his head upon seeing this. "Baby.. " he called her to get her attention.
"Yes? Is something the matter?" she asked and raised her head towards him.
"How about we visit Master Mu's shrine? You know him right? He was the one who gave the auspicious date for our wedding." Shane suggested.
"Baby, you're brilliant! Why did I forgot someone so important?" she exclaimed and she felt excited.
"Let's visit him when we finish eating, alright?" Shane said and squeezed Mich hands.
"Okay. I'm also famished and I also want to try something new." Mich smiled at him.

They arrived at their destination.
Mich was in awe when she got out from the car.
It was a huge house with beautiful flowers climbing on its wall. It looked antique at the same time, romantic. When they walked through the pavement, they pa.s.sed through an arc of flowers. Mich was elated. She kept turning around and taking pictures.
Upon entering, they noticed the garden full of roses. It has many varieties on it. It has yellow, red, pink, mageanta, and many more colors. She wondered if they have blue roses. In the midst of the garden, there is a pavillion with a table and two chairs facing each other. From their view it was like a sea of roses. Mich took a picture. She will show it to Rodora.
'I wonder if the food will taste great.' she thought. Shane somehow managed to see through her. "They have great food here. I wonder if we can book this for Misha's wedding?" Shane said. "Really?" Mich exclaimed. "You came here before?" Mich suddenly asked. "Yep." Shane unhesitantly replied. "With Albert. It was way back before we met." he added. He sensed Michele's doubt when she asked. "Ohhh.. Is that so?" asked Mich with still a doubt in him. "You can ask him though, it seemed he brought Rodora here before." he answered with a defence in it. "Mmm.. mm.." is what Mich said after.
When they entered in the main lobby, Mich smiled. She saw peonies. Her favorite flower. Moreover, the ambiance in the restaurant is romantic. It has a serene and tranquility feel inside. Mich noticed that there is no particular dress code. It made her smile even more.
As Shane said, their food taste great. They had great time eating. After, she sent Rodora some pictures. Rodora instantly replied. She said she had been there with Albert and Shane. It made Michele at ease. After eating, they headed toward Master Mu's shrine. Michele slept along the way.
