My Stubborn Mistress 208 Our Love Story- 22: The Book And The Proposal

Shun's story ended and Ca.s.sie was confused when he leans on the table and wipe her eyes. Did she cry?

"I guess, you'll be crying more when you personally read the book," he commented.

Ca.s.sie giggles. "Thank you. I guess that would be true. Looks a nice ending. I don't have a sister or siblings, so--" Ca.s.sie shrugs her right shoulder.

"Special delivery!" Karen and Loura rhymes.

"Hi, Ca.s.sie!"

"Miss Loura! I heard that your family owns this restaurant."

"Yes, Karen who manage it now."

"Hi, Ca.s.sie. . . I finally meet you!"

"h.e.l.lo, Miss Karen, nice to meet you too."

The sisters' places the platters on the table.

"Alright, we won't spoil your dinner. We'll go back downstairs now," Loura whispered.

"Thank you." They both said.

Ca.s.sie began savoring the food that was served and her eyes grew wider in excitement, it tastes good. She ended up eating everything that places in the table.

Quinn staring at her with amazement. He was very amused watching her eating anything.

"Sorry if I ate this much," she said blus.h.i.+ngly.

Quinn laughs. "No. Am glad you were eating without reserve. Well, you know, acting eating too small and slowly like starving yourself actually not good. Besides, you are young, you shouldn't be conscious of eating a lot."

Ca.s.sie smiled. She doesn't do those diet routine but gladly, she is one of those lucky people who doesn't easily gain weight from eating anything. She saw teenagers that older than her being conscious about their foods. Surely it would be very hard suppressing the hunger from your favorite food but afraid to gain more weight.

Her eyes sparks when Larry brought the same wine she had back in the hotel. After a few talks, Larry left them and Shun gives her a gla.s.s of wine. It was really tasty and sweet but no alcohol could taste. She can drink a whole bottle with it.

She stared at her wine gla.s.s. She wonders who winemaking this wine. And whoever it is, she will honor him her grat.i.tude of creating this sweet but non-alcoholic wine.

"You do like it as I could see," Quinn commented, his eyes never left her. He observes every little cute gestures and expression she has.

"Yes. It really tastes superb and I want to reward whoever makes this!"

Playful smile tore Quinn's lips. Someday, I will claim that reward, he thought. His eyes spark with his silly ideas. And one day, he will bring her in the Vineyard.

They finish eating and enjoyed the view from there. The restaurant was on top of a hill and they could gaze out the central city of Paris, in particular, the Eiffel Tower.

Quinn remains staring at Ca.s.sandra when pain strikes his head. He only drinks a few gla.s.ses of with alcohol wine but is he having a headache?

"b.u.t.terfly?" Ca.s.sie exclaimed.

"Huh?" Quinn follows Ca.s.sandra's gaze to a purple b.u.t.terfly flapping around the room. "Ah, they probably following the lilies."

"I see. It must be. . . Am going to the washroom first."

"Okay."

Ca.s.sie stood up from the seat then went downstairs and take the hallway where says, washroom in French.

When she entered the ladies room, she b.u.mped into someone. She said sorry in French. The lady smiled at her then push the door to open and a red b.u.t.terfly follows her.

While was.h.i.+ng her hands after using the cubicle, she was still a little confused about that woman. She seems familiar. Where does she meet her before? And that red b.u.t.terfly. . . could be possible they were flying around during nights? Ah, never mind.

Ca.s.sie goes back upstairs then she saw two different desserts serve in the table now. Her mouth-watering to taste them. She completely forgets about the woman in red clothing and the red b.u.t.terfly.

The night getting older and the Eiffel tower lighted once more. They stood near the window and Shun holding her tight while kissing her pa.s.sionately.

Can they wish Heaven not to end the night?

Outside, after the restaurant now closed, Quinn and Ca.s.sie meet Derek, Larry, Karen, and Loura then a three years old little girl sleeping on Derek's arms.

"Our daughter Kendra. Am sure she will be so fond of you when she will meet you." Karen introduces her daughter.

"Ah, she looks so pretty. Well, her mama and auntie are pretty too! Would look forward to talking to her next time."

"Wait, her dads have a beautiful family too! Right, Shun?'

Quinn wanted to give Derek a beating. "Well, ahem. . ."

"Anyways, am sure your children will be beautiful too, Miss Ca.s.sie. Right, Shun?"

Derek still hasn't stopped even Quinn giving him warning gazes. Loura and Karen hold not to giggle and Larry just shook his head how Derek teasing Quinn in his heart contents.

Ca.s.sie smile then blus.h.i.+ng.

"Alright then, we're leaving now. See you tomorrow in the hospital, Miss Ca.s.sie."

"Goodnight, Doctor Derek. Yes, see you around."

"Bye, guys!" Karen waves her hand and they watch the car leaving.

"Time for us to go also."

Larry and Loura enter on their car and leave first. Quinn opens her the car door, and before he steps inside, he looks around and nods at certain people.

A convoy following them without Ca.s.sie noticing what's happening in her surroundings.

~~~

Late of the night, Quinn woke up from a dream. He wasn't sure if it is a nightmare or a beautiful dream. But then, he could hear that Ca.s.sandra was sobbing. He quickly steps down from his bed and knocks Ca.s.sandra.

"Ca.s.sandra? What's wrong? Are you alright? Can you open the door?"

Not a long after, the door opens and he saw how her eyes flooded with tears.

"What happens?" He wipes her eyes.

"Why they have to die?"

"Who?" What is she talking about?

"Marivella, HwYoung, and Ca.s.sandra. Do they really have to die?"

He was confused about her question then he spotted a book on the bed.

"Are they were from a story?" He felt Ca.s.sandra nods.

"Okay, it is just a sad story novel."

"But why Ca.s.sandra and the baby also dies?"

"Can't they make it a happy ending?"

Quinn is not sure what to answer. He just tightens his embrace and kisses her forehead.

"Where did you get that book?" Quinn remembered to ask her.

"A woman gives it to me. I just then remember I put them inside on my coat pocket.

"I see. . . Okay, come here." He pulled Ca.s.sie inside and help her sit on the bed.

"Listen to me, okay? If that book has a sad story, then how if, we can make it a happy ending."

"Hmm?" Ca.s.sie was confused.

"Would you like to marry me when the right time comes?"

She was dumbfounded. Is she hearing correctly? Shun is proposing to her?

Wait for a minute. Isn't they just meet a few months ago? Then cross path here in Paris? And first kiss yesterday, then a proposal tonight?

Shun pushes the strands of her hair that covering her face.

"Don't worry, am not rus.h.i.+ng. You don't need to answer me right away, okay? I would wait of course, and I should talk to your parents first."

She smiled at him. She could feel inside her heart but yes, she was still so young. The right time will come.

"Okay, you have to go to sleep now, it's late."

Ca.s.sandra holds her s.h.i.+rt.

"Is it okay, if I stay here?" He watches Ca.s.sandra nodded. "Okay then."

Quinn pulled the blanket and covered her. He picks up the book but he was electrified. What was that?

"What's wrong?" she asked him. Ca.s.sie then picks up the book and place it to the bedside table.

"Ah, nothing. . ." He joins Ca.s.sandra on the bed and forgets about the book.

She pillowed his arm and cuddled him. He sighed.

They stayed together like that while he was stroking her hair.

Ca.s.sie was biting her lower lip after Shun kissing her intently. Quinn decided to go back to his own room and she agreed. He wanted to show how much he respects her.

"Soon, let's make happy memories of our very own Love Story until our happily ever after. . ." he whispered before he left her. And that's enough to fill her heart with so much love.

How to create a happy ending without a tragedy?

A question inside her head before she falls asleep. The purple and red b.u.t.terfly rested on the book.
