“I’ve got an irrefutable proof of my love for you,” I blurted out just after our passionate lovemaking. “Tell me,” she was confounded by my outburst. “Croatia!”

Addendum (January 31, 2018)

In short, I would never “return” to Croatia had I not met my beloved in Sweden, of all countries. Even more important, I would never stay in this country had I not remained in love with her for all these years. Besides, my beloved knows full well how I feel about Croatia. If there is a need for an irrefutable proof of my love for her, it surely fits the bill. Irrefutable, and no kidding.
