28 Ch. 28

Ethan already picked me up earlier and went to a café near the mall, not the café I work in. We were sipping our frappes in silence and I decided to break it. "So, what are we going to talk about?" I asked, still sipping the frappe. "I heard Uncle that you're planning to put up a business. You know that I wanted to build it with you right." I nodded and he continued, "If you want to build a business, let's build it together." He smiled and I got confused about his career. He can't quit his career just like I did. "What about your career? Don't say you're going to quit too?" I said with widen eyes. "Looks like it." He then said making me choke my drink. "What?! You can't do that! You've worked hard for it." I ranted, "Look, we're just human Sophie. We also grow old. Since I'm still, we're still, young yet we already experienced being an Idol. I wanted to build a business, just like you wanted. I earned a lot of money and I heard uncle will help us for the finances, so no worries. But we will not rely on him. We still have time. While building our own business, I'll still worked to earn more money, then I quit when the building is done." I got fascinated by his words. I tear up while he says that. I keep on smiling at his plans. I held his hand. "Thank you." I wiped off my tears "Stop crying." He said and I laughed. "I'm not though" I lied and laughed. Next week, I'll be back to work and by now we'll start to plan it. He took some photos from his phone and pass it to me.

In the afternoon, we ate at the restaurant. We've been talking about the business like how many hours had passed. "Sophie, what is your plan after we build our business?" he suddenly asked and I looked at him. "I don't know, maybe just focus on what the time matters." I said and he looked down. "I wanted to give this to you." he held out a red velvet small box to me. I couldn't move. I looked at the box. "What's that?" he opened it and saw a diamond ring. I was shocked and couldn't really move. "A promise ring. I wanted to give this to you. I promise you to when the day comes, I will marry you and have a perfect family you dreamt of." This guy never stop making me cry. "Will you accept my promise ring?" I nodded immediately and he put the ring inside my middle finger. I smiled widely and stood up to hug him tightly. I don't how to react. I just had the urge to hug him.
