THE ENGAGEMENT

Spring had come.

The weather was hot. The warm breeze carried the scent of flowers. Flowers bloomed everywhere.

The dead season was gone.

A new beginning for the world.

And so for a couple.

Wearing a baby blue colored gown and a flower crown, Catherine stood beside Vincent. The couple was smiling at the guests.

Aside from Vincent's relatives and Catherine's colleagues from the Magic Tower no one else was invited. 

Looking at the magicians of the Magic Tower such as Ovior and Arthur, Vincent asked, "Catherine, are they from the palace?"

"No, they work for the palace. They have houses to live in."

"What about that huge guy?" Vincent stared at Darius who was laughing hard at Felix's joke. "He was a customer. That's one thing. But in our engagement ceremony? Why?"

Catherine answered, "He is my best friend's teacher. That's how we got to know him."

"What does he teach? This huge guy doesn't teach history, does he?"
