3rd person's pov

Zermatt is one of the most beautiful spot in Switzerland.

Zermatt is well known for its beauty with amazing lakes and mountains.

They took rest for an hour and once they freshen up they decided to explore the beautiful city of Zermatt.

They walked hand in hand along the pavement talking about their unknown future.

"Nuska, how many babies do you want to have?" Zaid questioned her to which she blushed and replied, "Maybe 3 or 4"

"Woah! I thought you would say one or two" He laughed while she blushed.

"Yes. First, I want a son and then a daughter. Third one should be a son and lastly we can have a another daughter. What do you say?" She asked him.

He chuckled and replied to her, "Woah! You had planned so much. Anyways I won't argue with you because afterall it is you who is gonna bear the pain and I have no right to argue with you. Am I right?"

"Yes. You are right. But just say, how many kids do you want to have?" She smiled looking at him.

"I had never planned about that but yeah I would also love to have four kids like how you had planned. Lol"

"Great" She laughed.

With that they walked silently admiring the beauty of Zermatt.

                  ********************
Zaid's pov.

We walked towards a deserted area in a peaceful silence.

I had a surprise for her.

As we walked further, there came the view of a beautiful cottage.

I looked at Nuska and she was smiling brightly.

"Wow!" She commented looking at the cottage.

I opened the small fenced gate and led her inside.

The entrance of the cottage was decorated with beautiful pink flowers and as we moved on we were mesmerized by the beauty of this cottage.

We walked on and then turned to the left and yet again we were stunned by the beauty of the decorated entrance.

The Cottage was surrounded with many beautiful flowers.

The flowers were dancing out of joy and it looked extremely beautiful on this sunny yet cold day.

We walked further and there stood the cottage and yet again we were mesmerized by the beauty of the cottage.

Indeed, the cottage was breathtakingly beautiful.

Nuska was looking around the cottage with a huge smile on her lips.

For sure, She liked this place and it was evident on her face.

"Zaid, this place is beautiful and I am already in love with this place." She said hugging me in excitement.

"Yes it is" I said wrapping my hand around her shoulders.

We walked along the bricked pathway hand in hand and once we reached the door, I took out the keys out of my pocket and opened the door.

We stepped inside the house in great excitement.

As we entered we were yet again stunned by the interior beauty of this cottage.

The Cottage was cozy and comfortable and we liked it that way.

Just like the exteriors, even the interiors were beautiful.

This cottage belongs to an old couple who had now moved on to Zurich and even after they moved on, there has been men appointed by them to keep this house clean and beautiful as ever.

After having a long conversation with them, I had rented this cottage for today because I wanted give a surprise for Nuska.

"Zaid, this place is amazing" She interrupted my thoughts.

"Yes, it is. Do you like it?"

"Ofcourse. I love this place. I wish I could live here forever" she smiled holding my hands.

"I will build an even more beautiful cottage for you sweetheart" I cupped her face with my hands.

"Really? " she asked, showing the excitement in her eyes.

"Yes" I said and kissed her forehead.

"Thats so sweet of you" She pulled both my cheeks like a kid.

We both laughed and continued exploring the house.

Once done, we walked to the kitchen to cook lunch for us.

Yes, I want to cook with her.

"What are we going to cook?" She asked excitedly.

"Rice obviously" I said to which she pouted.

"Why are you giving that reaction?" I chuckled.

"Because I don't want rice" she said as she sat on the chair behind the counter.

"Can't help, you have to eat that" I said and took the stuffs from the basket which I had asked my men to keep it before we come here.

I took the stuffs one by one and kept it on the counter.

She was looking at me with her hands under her chin when she suddenly screamed, "Yayyy"

But why?
I was totally confused.

"Why did you scream?" I asked furrowing my eyebrows.

"Look at this" She said pointing at a packet of Pasta.

Oh God!

"Let's make pasta" She said smiling with hope in her eyes that I would say yes but my answer was, "No way"

"But why?" She pouted cutely and I so badly wanted to kiss her.

I gave her peck on her lips and winked at her.

"Mama" She screamed and started crying.

But what happened?
Is it because I kissed her?

I was horrified at her sudden outburst but it was funny too.

"Sweetheart, what happened?" I asked controlling my laugh.

If she see me laughing at her, She will bury me alive.

"I want pasta" She cried.

"But it's better to have rice for lunch" I said walking towards her and sat besides her.

"I want pasta" She repeated wiping her tears and this time she was glaring at me.

Such an Angry Bird! *sighs*

I turned towards her and now both of us were facing each other.

"Okay. Let's make pasta" I kissed her nose to which she started blushing while I chuckled.

After arranging the stuffs properly, we started cooking.

Nuska was cutting carrots to make a carrot salad while I started preparing the cheesy chicken pasta which is her favourite.

"Zaid, come here" She called me.

"Why?" I asked adding in some cheese into the pan.

"Check whether I have cut these carrots properly" She said pointing to the carrots which she was cutting.

Only then I looked towards the counter where she was sitting cross-legged with her hair tied in a bun.

I walked towards her and when I saw how she had cut the carrots, I couldn't control myself from laughing.

I laughed so hard but when I saw her pouting sadly, I controlled myself.

"Sweetheart, you shouldn't cut like this" I told her pulling her chubby cheeks.

"Then how should I do it?" She asked innocently.

I then took the knife from her hand and after cleaning a new carrot, I taught her how to cut it for a salad and she learnt it.

Afterwards, she continued cutting the other carrots while I continued to prepare the pasta.

She completed cutting the rest of the carrots fast and came towards me with the dish full of carrots.

"Done" she said handing me the dish.

I took it from her and kissed her forehead, "Good girl"

I kept the fish full of pasta on the counter and put in the pasta and gave a final mixing to it and it was ready. After transferring the pasta to a dish, I asked Nuska to place it on the dining table.

I then started preparing the salad while Nuska was looking at me and it was greatly disturbing me.

I winked at her and she looked away blushing. I chuckled and continued my work.

I completed it quickly and after placing it on the table both of us started to have our lunch.

"I hope I don't end up in the hospital after eating the food cooked by you" She said chuckling while serving pasta for me.

I pouted at her and she laughed, "just joking Mr.Zaid"

After she served for both of us, we started eating.

I waited for her to start eating first and tell me about my cooking.

She put a spoonful of pasta into her mouth and I noticed her reaction in her face. She looked at me and I hoped for a good reply.

"Zaid" She looked at me sadly.

"yes. how is it?" I asked eyeing her expression.

She sighed and shook her head.

I was disappointed.

Maybe the food is really bad.

"I am sorry Nuska, Is it really bad?" I asked her sadly.

"Zaid, how do you expect me to eat this?" she asked with seriousness all over her face.

"Sorry. wait! let me ask Ebad to bring us food" I said getting up from the chair.

"No Zaid, I was just joking" She laughed holding my wrist.

"Seriously?" I frowned.

"Yes"

"I know you are lying"

"No Idiot. I promise it's amazing. I was just pranking you" She winked at me while I frowned.

I ruffled her hair and sat on the chair.

"Let me feed you today" She said chuckling.

And with that We had our peaceful lunch.
