{PROPOSAL}
~DINA’ S CAFE~
Nuella’s eyes widened immediately their lips pressed against each other. She was dumbstruck and confused for a while. She pushed him away as soon as she got herself making him hit his head on the counter. A groan escaped his lips but she cared less.
She released two consecutive slaps on his face as soon as she stood on her feet. She meant to slap him another one but he caught her hand hanging it midair
“Let go of me this instant” She said with gritted teeth trying to break free from his grip.
“Do you h@ťě me that much?” Alex uttered with so much emotions in his voice. He stared sharply into her eyes.
“Yes! You absolutely have no idea how your presence irkes me, I think the world will be much better with less of your existence” She said with so much spite
Alex let out a chuckle releasing her hand, he took a few steps backwards forcing a smile. His heart was hurting like hell, he could feel it breaking into a million of irredeemable pieces.
“Tell Dina that I quit” He said before leaving the cafe without sparing her a glance.
“Huh? Is he being serious right now?” She asked no one in particular.

~LAVENDER MANSION~
Rose returned the stare and all she could see is his eyes filled with love and sincerity. Twinkle’s eyes searched hers for response.
“Rose….” He called when he Was not getting any response from her
“I know it came as a shock but I’ll be grateful if you would consider my request…. you have all the time to think about it” He said forcing a smile. He stood up to leave but Rose held him by his hand.
“Yes” She said causing him to furrow his brows in confusion.
“Yes…. what?”
Rose stood up, standing on her tiptoe, she placed a light peck on his lips then smiled at him. That alone caused his eyes to sparkle.
“Is it what I am thinking?”
“Yes…. I’ll be your girlfriend for real this time” She answered. Twinkle pulled her into a tight hug almost choking her.
“I love you sunshine” He muttered stroking her hair fondly.He laid her gently in the bed before climbing in top of her. Rose’s eyes widened immediately
“What do you think you are doing?” She asked with shaky breathe and that made him bursted into laughter.
“What were you thinking?” He gave her a peck on her lips before rolling to the other side of the bed. He drew her closer to him, wrapping his hand around her waist. Rose placed her head on his chest.
“Are we officially dating now?” Rose couldn’t help but ask.
“Of course, you are mine now and I won’t hesitate to plug out the eyes of anyone who looks at you” Twinkle said and that made her chuckle lightly.
They remained in that position till he fell asleep. Rose raised her head to look at him. His full bangs had fallen to his face making him look extra cute, that also gave her the opportunity to admire his features. She was lost staring at his face that she didn’t notice when he opened his eyes.
“Am I too handsome that you can’t look away?” He said and that jolted her anck to reality. She let out a gasp and wanted to move away but his hand wrapped firmly around her waist prevented her from doing so.
“Stare all you want, I’m all yours” He added with a wink.

~GRACIE ORPHANAGE●NEXT MORNING~
Mr Jones paced around the office thoughtfully, he had been in that since he arrived. Gracie just watched him without saying a word.
“If the original will is with her then we have to look for a way to destroy it” He said after a long time
“We?” She raised a brow
“Yes… you and I. We are in this together until it is finally over. Why did she decide to come now? She should have just remained in hiding forever” Mr Jones snapped
“What should I do then?”
“Get the will at all cost, she told you about it right? That means, she still trusts you so use that to your advantage. Try to make up something, get the will” Mr Jones said more like an order
“And what will be the end of it all?”
“What else? Having the conglomerate in my possession with no opposition” Mr Jones answered with an air of pride.
Miss Gracie just sighed deeply.

~MAYBELL COLLEGE●TWINKLE’S CONDO~
“I think I am going crazy at this point” Twinkle said ansentmindedly, staring at no where in particular.
“Same here” Alex answered also look lost in thoughts.
“Why does she keeps playing in my head? Am going crazy?” Twinkle mumbled
“I think I am” Alexander replied again.
“And strangely I can’t stop thinking about her, she is living in my head for real” Twinkle uttered
“But sadly, she don’t feel the same” Alex responded and this time, Twinkle turned to look at him.
“What are you talking about?” He tapped him at the back his head. Alexander turned to face Twinkle with a shocked expression.
“Huh?”
“Who are you referring to? Who are you thinking about?” Twinkle repeated his question.
“I should be asking you that too. You have a crush? Or perhaps you’ve fallen in love already?” Alex retorted ignoring Twinkle’s question.
“And I don’t think that’s any of your business” Twinkle snapped standing up. He walked out of the place.
Alexander grabbed his phone like he was expecting a call or text, he huffed a deep breathe when he saw none.
“You must be crazy thinking she is going to call you. She is probably happy that you left” his subconscious mind told him
“I must be really crazy” He mumbled
******
Twinkle’s presence in the class caused an uproar. It’s shocking to see him since he rarely attend lectures.
🗣IT’S TWINKLE!!
🗣WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?
🗣SO SHOCKING!!
Twinkle scanned around the whole classroom and his gaze landed on Rose, a smile appeared on his face immediately and he walked briskly to her.
Before he even got there, Ariel who was seated beside Rose stood up quickly leaving the seat for him. He sat down beside Rose who was still shocked at he whole thing.
“What are you doing here?” She asked in a low voice
“What else? I came to attend lectures” He responded, he never took his eyes from her as he spoke, like she would disappear if he did that.
“Really?” She furrowed her brows at him
“Fine…. I came to look at you, I couldn’t stop thinking about you so here I am” He answered truthfully
“But, this is a school” She retorted
“And is there anything wrong in staring at my girlfriend’s face?” He answered back. A alight blush appeared on her both cheeks at the mention of the word *girlfriend*
“That’s right” She bit her bottom lips trying to suppress her smile.
“d@mn! I might just kiss you right here if you keep doing that” He muttered
“What!!?”
Twinkle ran his hand through his hair in frustration. “I think I am slowly loosing it” He muttered.
*****
Twinkle dragged Rose into one of the empty room and he shut the door behind him.
“What are you…..
She swallowed her remaining words as Twinkle’s lips landed on hers. He kissed her ferociously, sucking on her bottom lips hungrily like he wants to extract milk from it. Rose responded almost the same space.
Twinkle’s mouth moved from her lips to her neck, trailing wet kisses all over. He sucked on her collarbone, biting into it.
Rose threw her backwards trying hard to suppress her Mõ@ɲs. A muffled Mõ@ɲ escaped her lips when she couldn’t hold it any longer.
Twinkle slowly let go of her with a smile on his face.
“I think I am much better now, I was almost loosing my sense at some point” He said
“And….
“And yours lips did the trick, I’m just addicted to it and at this point I didn’t think I can stay a day without it” He added before pulling her into a tight hug.

~DINA’S CAFE~
“Why are you staring at me that way?” Rose couldn’t help but wonder aloud as Nuella kept on looking at her without giving her a break.
“Why isn’t he here by now?” Nuella said instead causing Rose to raise a brow.
“Who are you referring to?”
“No one” Nuella numbled in reply
“What do you have for me?” Rose said after a while breaking the silence. Nuella had actually phoned her and had requested that she see her after school.
“Something very important” Nuella replied leanining closer to Rose, she whispered something in her ears and that made Rose turn to her in shock.

~GRACIE ORPHANAGE~
Miss Gracie kept on inhaling sharply as she waited for the call to connect.
“I’ll just do this and get done with it” She said to herself. May finally picked the call up at the last ring.
“Can we meet? And if you can also being the will with you, let’s talk more about ours plans” She said
●●●●●
~LAVENDER MANSION~
Rose waited for a while before the door finally opened. Vince threw a questioning look at her, surprised all the same.
“Mind if we… both head to the kitchen together, I have something for you” She said with a smile.
“What’s it?”
“You should go to the kitchen to find out” She responded instead, she dragged him by his arm leading him out.
*****
~KITCHEN~
“What’s the….
Vince paused on his words as he sighted Twinkle also in the kitchen. He and that equally surprised look on seeing Vince.
Rose ran out and locked the door behind her.
“You both should settle your difference if yo want me to open the door. You can’t keep acting this way forever”She said from the outside.
Twinkle and Vince exchanged glance and Vince let out a scoff looking away.
“I hope things work out between them” Rose mumbled
