Stuart has an imaginary mind as well as fascicle of expectations. He knows something is coming in his way, which will be bring amount of complacency somehow. He ordered a Box of Wine and Chocolates cz all English men love it! He added a bouquet of combined flowers also.
England vs New Zealand
1st Test, 2023
When Brandon McCullum starts his Authority through 'BAZBALL', every team has been a piece of paper. Not with a varying length but they are just doing WELL after 'Stokes-McCullum' era started. They lost just 1 match after that and Wins every consecutive matches.
Again, they stand against New Zealand- the team, McCullum belongs and also the team, McCullum has started his journey against, as coach. Had a Great history also. When everyone was waiting for another showdown of Bazball, Stuart was waiting for 1000. Not a batting Milestone! Its a Bowling Milestone which named 'Bowling Partnership between Stuart and Jimmy.' YES- 1000!
997- their total wickets then. Only 3 wickets to go now. Before that Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne had a record of 1001. They need 5 wickets ALSO to beat their Legends. STUART remembers this. From 2022 he is waiting for that moment, Finally it has come...
So what! ENGLAND again beats New Zealand by 267 runs. Everyone was so pleased. They Another thing is, Jimmy and Stuart had their RECORD! They got 4 wickets on Eng 1st innings; Got the Record also. Amazing thing is, they also had their ANOTHER Record which was 'Beating 1001'. They got 8 wickets on their 2nd innings and make the partnership to 1009! This is how 'The MOST Bowling Partnership Record' again Build. The crowd was Kewis side of course but when their Record breaking announcement was in the Bord, the CROWD known no bound. They stood up, clapped, cheers, congratulated them! Like They were a fragment of BarmyArmy.
____________________
Jimmy was so glad. He hadn't the sense of that Amazing record; but felt Happy when he knew. Everyone was congratulated him with a wild smile. Not for this record but for his superb performance as he ends his innings by 7 wickets! He is G.O.A.T. otherwise.
When he got himself in his room, in a tired face, he got shocked also. He noticed flowers and gift on his bed! He knows who can LEFT it here, he Smiles. He opens it and gives a happy face cz he loves it! He looks around for Stuart bit he wasn't there. His smiles erased instantly. When he was about to call him, he heard a sound, his gate opens, someone appeared.. "Stuart?" Jimmy questioned the emptiness. "IT IS!" Stuart certainly said. And that Relief received by Jimmy. He goes and Hugged him. Stuart Smiles and said, "Loved that Gift? Jimmy." "Is it a question?" Jimmy says. Stuart kissed him on the lips, Jimmy feels it; takes it. Loves every moment Stuart willingly gives him. Since 2008, they are still having each-other's side, support.

To reporters,
Stuart says, "I remember the game and the feelings quite clearly. Jimmy actually twisted his ankle on night one playing football and left the ground on crutches not knowing if he was going to take part, which would've been a nightmare. I remember feeling quite nervous, but just trying to go in with a free spirit, having made my debut three months earlier in Colombo."
Jimmy says, "I was thinking there's not many more chances I can get. Because I'd been in and out for quite a few years. I don't think either of us thought that it would be the start of a partnership or something that we can build on, we were just trying to take the opportunity that we had been given. The fact that the coach and captain had given us the responsibility after you and Hoggy had been there for a number of years, gave us a lot of confidence that they trusted us."
They made the day a 'Memory'....
- Just say you don't love me.
- Ah! You Know I CAN'T!
- Why Jimmy? You said-
- Yeah. I did. Forget it for me.
- [Chuckles] You know I can't.
- Stu! Don't you dare to repeat-
- Alright.
- I hate you.
- I love when you hate me.
- You dumbass!
- You beautiful!
- Shut up. I wonder what you have thought about.
- Say.
- You are gonna come here and put your all shit down then get my intentions.
- Don't say you aren't giving.
- Oh! Just Don't try to make my temperature high. Okay!
- [Laughs] I- I love you Jimmy. I love when you got angry like angry birds and your hot temperature showed up directly at your f-face [laughed out]
- STUUU
- JIMMYYY
- Forget it! [Looks up] I love you too.
Stuart picks him up between his hand in a bridal style. Placed him on their Bed and the rest of an emptiness filled with Glorious Gratification with no impediment left.
