The Moon and The Ocean novel Chapter 10

Ocean was really confused with the sudden change in Zeus' behavior. He noticed it in her eyes. He sighed and spoke again.

Zeus: I know what you must be thinking. I was just looking after my brother. For me, he's still my baby brother. I could never stand to see him hurt. And the way you talked to me, I'm sure you are perfect for him. I've seen pure love for you in his eyes. I wanted to be sure that you also have the same feeling for him. But what I witnessed was beyond my imagination. You know no one ever raised their voice in front of me. I'm impressed.

Hesitantly Ocean asked him.

Ocean: So you really don't have any problems with our relationship?

Zeus chuckled lightly and spoke.

Zeus: No, I don't. If you have any problem, never hesitate, just give me a call.

Ocean smiled and spoke.

Ocean: Thank you for giving me a chance to prove myself.

Zeus: Take care of him. He's so precious.

Ocean: I know.

Zeus turned around to leave but he stopped mid way. He turned around to look at Ocean. She understood the reason, she knew he was worried if she'd tell Moon about this little conversation. She gave him a small smile and spoke.

Ocean: I am not going to tell him. I know and I can understand. You love him and can do anything for him. Moon is lucky to have a brother like you.

By the end, her voice cracked and Zeus saw tears in her eyes. He walked to her and patted her head like a brother. He spoke.

Zeus: You know, I am brother for you too. So you don't have to be sad. Just give me a call if you need my help with anything. I promise, I will try my best to be there for my baby sister.

Ocean gave him a wide smile and Zeus left. She was glad to know that Zeus was now on their side.

Back in Time.

Moon happily went back inside and told everything to Maria. Maria was shocked, listening to moon about Zeus' reaction. But she didn't push it more, she was happy to see her Moon was happy. 6 years ago when Moon saw her the very first time and lost her the very next day, Moon wasn't the same person since then. He stopped enjoying his life, he used to lock himself in his room. So many nights Maria spent sitting besides Moon. But as she came back to his life, things changed. Now he's happy and lively.

Maria set up a lunch at weekend. Moon didn't tell her, he decided to tell her at the lakeside. Ocean reached to the lake, she was enjoying the cold breeze when Moon wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and placed a wet kiss on her sweet spot. She moaned and Moon smiled. He turned her around and picked her up. She wrapped her legs around his waist and Moon sat on the ground. Ocean put her head on his chest and they stayed like this for a while. Then Moon cleared his throat and Ocean looked at him.

Moon: You're invited for lunch on Saturday.

Ocean: What if they won't like me?

Moon cupped her face and pecked her lips, he gave her a sweet smile and spoke again.
