150. Tranquil Waters-IV

A distant rumble woke them from their reverie and from where they were looking, they turned around and started walking towards a small hillock. They had both dreamt of coming to this place before. From a distance, the small mound looked like a dense green carpet, as if someone had laid it out to welcome them. As soon as they reached the edge of the hillock, to their surprise, yellow and red tulips started blooming as if they anticipated their coming. In a couple of seconds, the whole hill was covered just like they had seen in their dream. As they walked through the flowers, hand in hand, they realised that they were actually living their dream today. Butterflies of all hues flew from flower to flower. Honey bees buzzed in excitement as if they too were all of a sudden caught unawares by the magical blooming of the red and yellow tulips. 
Both of them were filled with a love unknown to them before. Not even for a second did they leave their hands. They wanted to feel the moment together; wanted to stay connected. By now, they had walked quite a distance but they were not tired at all. It seemed as if they had just started walking!
