He laughed maniacally as he got into his car, "Flora, you're mine now!"

On reaching home, Frank called his mom to announce his relationship.

"You'll be meeting her pretty soon."

His mom laughed joyfully over the phone but stopped suddenly.

"Frank dear, she does know that she's in a relationship with you right?"

"Of course. I told her she'd be mine on our third meeting."

"What?! You didn't ask her out properly?"

"I did. I announced it everytime I met with her."

"Who taught you?"

"Dad."

The phone was dead on the other side, and Frank smiled to himself cheekily.

...

Still thinking about the encounter earlier that day, Flora lied in bed restless. Did she have a boyfriend now? A handsome boyfriend at that? Was this really worth getting excited over? I don't even know anything about this dude.

As her thoughts were getting more jumbled, her phone vibrated. It was a message from an unknown number.

It simply read, "Hi girlfriend ^.^"

She was stunned and sat upright in bed.

"Frank?"

He replied, "you mean boyfriend °.°"

"Did you really mean it?"

"I don't do things I'm unsure about."

"Do you like me?"

"Even my mom knows about you."

"Why did you wait until the third meeting?"

"First meeting, you were mine in our past lives. Second meeting, you're mine in the present. Third meeting, you'll still be mine in our next lives."

Flora was left speechless. She couldn't imagine this words coming out of that handsome face.

"Where did you learn all these?"

"Internet."

Flora burst out laughing.

They talked for a while longer and decided to go on a date the next day.

"Goodnight girlfriend."

"Goodnight Frank ~.~"

"You mean husband."

"I mean boyfriend."

Frank smiled at the text. He finally got her to say it.
