Perpetual: Who are you?

Ann Marie: Meet at Blue And Pink Sweets shop right now

Ann Marie hanged up on Perpetual, Ann went to meet Perpetual and saw her eating some blueberry cake

Perpetual: Ah, so is Desmond's new girlfriend

Ann sat down

Ann Marie: Look, I'm not his girlfriend

Perpetual: Then why are you engaged to him?

Ann Marie: Cos my parents forced me, I don't love him. Desmond loves you a lot, everytime I talk with him he mentions your name

Perpetual: I think you're saying that to fool u

Ann Marie: I'm not fooling you. I'm a woman just like u and I know how it feels to lose the one that u like or maybe love cos it have happened to me

Perpetual: And how do I believe you

Ann Marie: Cos I'm telling the truth or do u want me to call him

Perpetual: No, I don't want to hear his voice. Besides I have Edmund and he would be my new boyfriend

Ann Marie: Uh uh, he's not yours

Perpetual: So he's rather yours right

Ann Marie: Just follow your heart and see what it tells you, I have to go now
