INTO THE DEPTHS OF LOVE : CHAPTER 31 – 40
Kristin gasped when she saw the length and breadth of Richard’s acres.
“Whoa! This is so huge compared to the farmlands in Glenwood”
“This is one of the acres I have in Vegas”
“Whoa! I am married to a multi billionaire!” She gasped.
“Are you just knowing about it?” Richard asked, feeling proud and Kristin grins.
“Now let’s get started with your lessons” She smiled at him.
“What should we do first?”
“By putting on your hat. Can you finally lower your height so I can wear the hat on you? This is an isolated area, so no one will see the almighty Richard Hernandez”
“Do whatever you want?”
Kristin strutted towards him, struggling to put the hat on Richard’s head.
“Can you please bend down a little?” Kristin said, struggling her toes to meet up with his height.
“Nobody asked you to be short”
“At least you love my smile” She blew funny kisses at him, Richard flicked her forehead, took the hat from her and put it on.
“Where should we begin?” He asked.
“The first thing you need to do,” Kristin instructed, “Is dig a hole for the seedling”.
Richard took the trowel and dug into the soil, feeling a sense of satisfaction at this simple act.
Kristin smiled as Richard plunged the trowel into the soil, turning it over to reveal the rich, dark earth beneath. She watched him carefully, ready to offer advice if he needed it.
“That’s good,” she said, nodding her approval. “Next, we want to make sure the hole is big enough for the seedling. We don’t want to overcrowd the roots”
The lessons went on and on, until Richard finally called it a day.
They went back home, and Richard couldn’t still believe he took a day from work just to learn farming with Kristin.
He looked at his fingers, and it had slight dirty particles in it. He heaved a sigh and shook his head.
“You need to go for therapy, cuz you’re going crazy Richard. You’re definitely going out of proportion” He looked at himself in the mirror and began washing his hands.
Meanwhile, Kristin was in her room talking to her dad. She is closer to her father than her mom.
“Your voice sounds so happy, did something happen?” Dante asked.
Kristin smiled, reminiscing how she taught Richard the ways of the farmers, though he gave up at the end, but it felt so good that he tried to learn the occupation she values so much.
“Nothing happened dad, I am just in a good mood”
“I’m glad you’re doing okay in Vegas. Hearing your voice and seeing how happy you’re, makes me worry less”
“You have nothing to worry about dad. I am doing just fine, and if ever it gets too hard, I won’t hesitate to call you”
“I hope you do. The entire neighborhood sends their greetings. They miss your dramas a lot”
“I also miss life in Glenwood. I will be sending you money to pay off our debts”
“What exactly are you doing in Vegas, Kristin? You are almost paying off our debts”
“It’s a great job. Las Vegas knows how to pay their employees so well. Aside that dad, I have a question to ask you”
“Sure go on”
“I have a friend who is scared of jangling sounds. He trembles on hearing it. Though I don’t make it known to him, but it bothers me”
“Is he just your friend or your boyfriend”
“Dad!” She snapped and Dante laughed.
“I was just joking Kristy. Anyways tell your friend that the only way he can overcome his phobia of jangling sounds is if he face it”
“I don’t understand dad”
“He can only overcome his phobia if he withstands the jangling sounds and try not to remember what led him to have fear of jangling sounds”
“Thank you so much, dad. You’re the best” Kristin smiled.
