Proposal

After the life-threatening drama, Bella asked Beauty, "Have you settled the problem between you two?"

Beauty nodded with a smile.

"Good, that's wonderful news." She embraced and kissed her daughter's forehead, "Happy for you."

Clarence came in the scene. Beauty saw him and grabbed his hand as they walked into the restaurant's mini-clinic. There she checked his wound. "What happened? Why is this in bandaged?" Her eyes squinted while asking.

His mouth curved upward and looked straight into her eyes, "It's not what you think it is. It's only my knuckles that were heavily bruised. See?" He showed his swollen knuckles which had traces of blood on it. "Actually, it's your fault. You still don't wanna talk to me. I was angry to myself and punched the wall for release." He pushed a finger to her nose. She cringed a bit with his touch.

Clarence was silently waiting for her to say something but she started to cry again.

"Why are you a crybaby nowadays?"
