Chapter 2 Unexpected Proposal

• Ares
• A woman slammed into my chest as I was about to walk outside. What is this woman doing just outside my door doing? "Are you okay?" I inquired calmly. She was taken aback when she looked up at me. I was caught off guard when I realized who this woman was.
• It's her! It's been 8 years, I didn't expect that we'll meet again. I think destiny made us meet again…
• "Excuse me, you are?" I asked her. I need to double-check that I'm thinking correctly. I know it's her, yet a part of me still wonders if it's actually her. She has changed so much that I don't recognize her anymore…
• "Kianna... Kianna Myst Saavedra," she answered.
• It's her indeed! It's like we are destined to meet. It's been a long time since the last time I saw her. She's still very pretty but she looks a little off?
• "You-"
• She abruptly covered my mouth, which caught me off guard. "Please!" she exclaimed, "You'll tell me later, but can you tell me where your restroom is first?"
• I couldn't take my gaze away from her. I'm trying to figure out what's going on with her. I hadn't quite finished thinking when she abruptly changed her expression and appeared to be holding something back. She quickly vomited on the floor, covering her mouth. She made matters worse by laying down on the floor. What a fortunate circumstance. Why do we need to meet again in this way?
• "Don't sleep on the vomit!" I screamed. What the fuck is she doing?!
• I tried to wake her up, but she was sound asleep. She's snoring after only a minute. She had fallen asleep so quickly. When I lifted her up, I noticed the scent of wine on her. Her vomit odor was more overpowering. It turns out that alcohol has a very different effect on her body. I was fortunate enough to be the one who met her. What if she runs into someone she doesn't know? It's still dangerous at this moment because there are so many maniacs around.
• "You're still a pain in the neck...How come she's so drunk?" I whispered.
• I never imagined we'd meet again after eight years in such dire circumstances. But what happened to you all these years?
• "How could you treat me like this?... Please, don't leave me..." She murmured while sleeping.
• Turns out she lost her love. Poor little Kia. What if I didn't leave the country? What if I stay? Will I end up with her? ...Kianna Myst Saavedra, I will never let you go this time! I will let you experience how true love works!
• -
• Kia regained her consciousness the next morning. She had no choice but to open her eyes because the sun was already shining on her face. She first let her eyes adjust because what she could see was too hazy. She was just staring at the ceiling when a twinge in her sinuses appeared.
• Umm? Shit! I'm experiencing some vertigo…
• She slowly got out of bed. Her eyes were drawn to a stunning room. The items that the wealthy appear to own will attract her attention. She just realized she wasn't in her room after that.
• This room was filled with the light of morning. The sun was shining on my face when I awoke. I stepped to the window and massaged my bleary eyes. There was a pearly glimmer in the sky. I can tell, it was a lovely and bright morning. Clouds moved over the sky, white and fluffy.
• Where am I?
• After a night of heavy drinking…
• She was taken aback when she remembered the man from last night. She couldn't help but scream at first, trying to figure out what had happened while she was unconscious.
• "You are awake."
• Kia quickly hid under the blanket and turned to face the source of the voice. His hair was wet, and water was still flowing from it on the floor. Fresh from the bathroom, huh! Kia said in her mind.
• The bravery of this man, who stepped out only wearing a towel wrapped around him. He has a lovely figure, but he can't take me that way!
• Kia screamed angrily, "You wretch! What have you done to me?" It didn't seem to notice her and even approached her. "Stay back!" Kia exclaimed.
• Kia shivered and hid in the blanket, much to her horror. Ares couldn't help but be intrigued by Kia's odd behavior.
• "Take it easy, we just did-uhm," Ares said gently.
• Kia's eyes widened even more when she heard him stuttering, "We what?! My clothes have been... been... Anyways, I'm calling the cops to have you arrested! You're a rascal! Dirty dog!" Kia exclaimed angrily.
• Ares let out a deep sigh. When he helped Kia, he didn't expect her to react so negatively. "I was drunk last night and you broke into my room and vomited, which is why... If you don't believe me, we can examine the hotel surveillance. It must shoot extremely clearly, so you can be clear on your thoughts..." Ares raged.
• Ares said something that surprised Kia and left her dumbfounded. She wasn't sure if she'd believe it or feel ashamed of what she'd done earlier.
• "However, I was wrong to make my own decision; I apologize... I am not a jerk who takes advantage of others; I will be accountable for you," Ares added.
• Ares' remarks stunned Kia. He had no idea what he was talking about.
• "So..." Ares smiled. "Let's get married!
• Marriage is not a joke! It is hard work that demands a total commitment from both people to work. Why did this guy suddenly ask me to get married?
• Kia was taken aback and asked Ares, "What are you talking about?... You want to marry me?"
• Ares soon became sweaty when Kia asked the question. "I am man enough to be responsible and make her feel protected." He thought to himself.
• Ares inquired anxiously, "Mhmm... Will you marry me?"
