"Do you want to marry me?"

The guy looked up in surprise and when their eyes met, he looked down at his pasta again. Fei-ah, who can clearly distinguished that he was shy of the question quickly managed a lopsided grin and cleared .

"I mean, hey. Our families sent us out on a date to get us to know each other before we get married next week."

The guy looks up again and his eyes widen, probably shocked that Fei-ah already knew about the wedding plan. Fei-ah nods with the fake, lopsided grin and scratches her left cheek with extra force than usual, resulting in red marks on her cheeks. The guy finally spoke, after hours of sitting together and just listening to Fei-ah's stories, he gathered the courage to spoke.

"I-- I hope you're not sad that you're forced to marry a man like me. I'm truly sorry. Really I am." He said with an earnest tone and Fei-ah swore -- her heart skips a beat when she heard that angelic, melodious voice.
