  • Angel was folding the cloths she had washed earlier when she saw a text from Max, she was so excited knowing that he had come to see her as promised, she went out and looked out at their narrow walk way, she saw him talking to their neighbor , maybe asking of their house, she rushed forward and hugged she seemed to like his perfume so much because she inhaled it for a while before breaking the hug, she held his hand and let him to their compound, she had told her parents that someone might come to visit her soon so they had expected him and they were eager to see what kind of man fell for their lovely daughter. When they came into the house, her mother stood and welcomed the young fine looking gentleman, he looked handsome and from a good background at a first glance, she wondered how they met with her daughter but she would ask that later, Max showed respect to them and her mother was impressed, her father was looking at Max sternly, Angel found it funny and smiled , she has not seen that look on him before. Her father was wondering whether this young man was genuine with his daughter or was he just joking around, he welcomed him and ushered him to sit on the opposite side, which he did, he introduced himself as Angel's boyfriend and her parents looked at each other and then at Angel she was blushing and they then realized that she felt something for the young man , her father asked where they met and he said they met when Angel was in school he went ahead to state his intentions saying that he wanted to get married to their daughter, Angel's father looked at him for a while before asking if he was sure that was what he wanted, he knew his daughter will have difficulties but he needed someone he would trust with her , he had to weigh this man, Max said he knew everything about her and he was ready and prepared to take care of her the rest of her life, this touched the old man's heart, he could see the young man was honest, he asked him more questions and then about his family, he wished you that part could be omitted but that was not possible they had the right to know him well before letting him take their daughter away, when he told them he was a prince, their expressions changed all over sudden, her father had a serious expression as if thinking hard on something while her mother had a worried expression as if afraid that something bad might happen to her daughter.
  • Max knew that his background could bring some worries to them but he assured them that all will be well with her stay, after all he knew at the back of his mind that he will not let her live in the palace , that left them with nothing to worry about.
