The day ended, and the couple retired to their different rooms. Though they both longed for each other as they slept in their cold rooms, none attempted to go to the other so as not to look desperate. And so Dylan slept that night, hugging a pillow and imagining it to be Ariel in his arms.

The next day, Ariel dropped Paul off at his school and returned home.

Dylan sat on the porch, drinking orange juice and reading a book.

"Which book are you reading?" she asked.

"Oh, it's one of the Harry Potter series books."

"Which one?"

"I don't know. It's an old book from a friend, and the front cover isn't there anymore."

"Let me see," Ariel moved closer toward Dylan to look at the book. Dylan looked at her face that was so close to him. They were smooth, and he felt that if he touched it, it would feel like butter.

He reached out and pecked her cheek.

"Why did you do that? "Ariel said, giving Dylan a hard knock on his head.

"Ow! You just looked too cute at the moment," he said, laughing and hol

    Ariel raised her brow as she saw the person who attacked them in the alien costume."A cosplayer? Jesus Christ! I thought it was something special, at least," said Ariel.It seemed everyone around agreed with her because they lowered their guards. Even Dylan's men dropped their weapons.The cinema house manager started scolding the alien cosplayer man."You stupid cosplayers and pranksters, always ruining everything! What's the meaning of the stunt you just pulled?!"The cinema house manager kept shouting at the cosplayer until he grabbed him, squeezed his head, and smacked him on the floor. The manager's head hit the ground, and blood splattered all over the tarmac.Ariel held on to Dylan, terrified."Who is this monster, Dylan? Is he real? Or is this just another prank? Ah! It must be another prank. My best friend would do that."She started to walk forward, but Dylan held her hand and pulled her back to him."What do you think you're doing?""I want to talk to the cosplayer.""He's

    Ariel was shocked as she watched the gory scene before her.Dylan was smashing his fist into the face of one of the attackers, and Ariel could hear the bones in his face breaking as blood splattered around."It was my brother who sent you right?! That motherfucker sent you right? Or was it Uncle Michael?! Who is it?!""Dylan."Ariel wanted to tell him that the man would not be able to tell him even if he wanted to because Dylan was not giving him any space to do anything."Talk! Can't you talk?

Please stop. People are already returning here. They'll see you."Dylan stopped and looked at her. He had bruises on his face and the blood of the attackers.The other attacker was lying on the floor, unconscious.Dylan's eyes softened when it fell on her and he pulled away from the man."Ariel," he said,

    "Ariel?"Ariel had just finished showering and was dressing up, brushing her hair, when Dylan knocked on her door and requested to see her.She let him in, and he sat on her bed. She wondered what he was here for."I…I like your hair."Huh?Ariel looked at him in surprise. Did he like her hair? Where was this coming from? She looked at his face to ensure he was not just making fun of her. He was smiling, and he looked sincere about it.She blushed."Why…Why did you say that?""I love the way it's glittering after your shower. It's a nice shade of brown. It also smells nice too."Ariel blushed even harder."Thank you. What is it you want to say to me?""Yeah, I wanted to thank you for saving my life back there yesterday. I would have been toast if you hadn't intervened. I also appreciate how you stuck to my side when I was rushed to the hospital.""Oh, that? It's nothing.

    Dylan chuckled and took the drink.Ariel sat down on the bed beside him and placed her cup on her lips. Dylan watched her as she drank her beer.

Ariel asked again, moving closer to him. His eyes were on her smooth neck."I do."Ariel dropped her cup and gave him a quick kiss on his lips. The action surprised Dylan as he had not been expecting that at all.He wanted to say something, but she did not let him finish. Instead, Ariel grabbed his face and kissed him.

    After a while, Dylan and Ariel decided to go shopping. They walked around, hand in hand. Ariel wanted to buy a few things but Dylan kept adding things to it, believing it won't be enough. Ariel ended up buying a lot of things- clothes, shoes, bags, and many other things Dylan added to it. And of course, he paid with his card."You know you gave me my card, right? I can pay for myself! I haven't even spent up to 5% of the money on this card, "Ariel insisted."And I insist, Baby," Dylan said, pacifying her with a kiss.

But then a young woman sitting close to Stella asked Ariel,"Where did you school?""Sorry?""I mean, now that you are a part of this family, don't we deserve to know more about you?""Yes, you do. Well…I studied at Franca High School. That's where I attended.""Franca high school? Where is that? Never heard of it. Is it outside the country?" a dark-haired man around Dylan's age asked."Oh please, Jean, school outside the country? I heard she is not from a rich family. Where do you want her to see the funds to school abroad?" the woman said and cackled.Ariel blushed. She wanted to smack this stupid bitch across the face but decided against it.
