First Step

Arabella's POV

"You can have a date with my father anytime, and you can tell me about it, Ara; you don't need to feel ashamed about it; I knew couples would go on a date most of the time," Anika said after I closed the door of her room, and I was amazed by her words that I couldn't stop from smiling at her.

"I am sorry, but yes, I had a date with your dad last night, and I enjoyed it very much, and I am so happy," I replied as she gaped at me.

"I am so happy for you and dad, Ara. Is that an engagement ring?" She asked, and I blushed as I looked at the ring on my finger.

"Don't be shy, my father informed me beforehand he wanted to marry you, and I even begged him to ask you sooner." She said, and my smile widened.
