"I don't think she'll be willing to talk to me right now," I expressed, feeling disheartened."She will," Alex assured me, offering a consoling pat on my back.As I gazed at the rose I had picked up from the bed, I mustered up my determination and approached Cassandra, who was sitting nearby. Surprisingly, I didn't feel awkward or cliché as I knelt in front of her and held out the rose."Would you like to go out with me?" I asked, my heart racing in my chest.She looked at me for what felt like an eternity, and then finally said, "Yes," accepting the rose from me.Kenny and Alex erupted into joyful cheers, giving me encouraging fist bumps.I stood up and sat next to Cassandra, feeling a mix of relief and excitement. "Okay, where would you like to go?" I inquired."You decide. Plan the date and surprise me," Cassandra replied with a smile.My mind raced as I wondered what to do. I felt both nervous and thrilled at the same time, determined to make this date unforgettable and show Cassa

As she carefully unwrapped each gift, her excitement began to build. Inside were no less than twelve romance novels and painting books, along with an impressive set of paints and a variety of paintbrushes in different sizes. In addition, there were pencils, erasers, and sharpeners, as well as embroidery books and a selection of threads and needles, accompanied by cloths in a variety of colors.My mother was over the moon and could not contain her gratitude. "This is just wonderful! Oh my goodness, it's absolutely lovely! Thank you so much, Jasper!" she exclaimed, embracing him tightly and planting a kiss on his forehead. The sheer joy on her face was priceless, and I felt my heart swell with love and appreciation for both Jasper and my mother.With a beaming smile, he replied, "You're welcome, Mom!" My heart swelled with joy when he called my mother "Mom." At that moment, I longed to grab him and shower him with kisses for making my heart race. While my mom and he discussed our weddin

Suddenly, a sweet melody reached my ears, and for a fleeting moment, I wondered if the fishes were singing. But soon enough, I recognized the familiar tune - "Grateful Hearts," a song I adored. Its lyrics resonated in my head, accompanying the music.As we wrapped up our dinner, Jasper extended his hand in a wordless invitation. Excitedly, I took his hand, and we began to sway to the music. Jasper held me close, and I nestled my head on his shoulder, feeling secure and cherished. It was an idyllic moment, as if time had ceased to exist.As the song drew to a close, I gazed up at Jasper, beaming. "This has been the best date ever," I exclaimed gratefully.With a smile, he replied, "You're welcome," as he gazed back at me."Will you forgive me now?" he asked, his lips slightly pouted.I chuckled and responded, "Almost." However, his charm proved irresistible, and I added, "Yes, I forgive you."Jasper checked his watch and groaned. "We'll have to leave soon. I only had permission for th

Upon entering, she gently called out to Cassandra , who stirred and opened her eyes, squinting against the bright sunlight. Reacting quickly, I pulled the curtains to provide some shade. Cassandra 's voice was hoarse as she spoke, "I don't feel too good." Mom asked her what was wrong, to which she replied, "My head aches, my body is aching too, and I feel feverish." She appeared exhausted.I think she should see a doctor, Mom suggested . I hesitated for a moment, but Mom insisted, "Jasper, call the doctor." However, Cassandra objected. "What? No! I just need to sleep a little, I will be alright." Despite her protestations, Mom was resolute, "Nonsense! Jasper, call the doctor up now!"Without delay, I called the doctor who promised to arrive soon. I sat by Cassandra 's side while Mom went to inform Dad that Cassandra wasn't feeling well. Mom offered to cancel their meeting in the next town, but Cassandra refused, "I'm sure it's nothing serious. Please don't cancel because of me.

I playfully stuck my tongue out at him. "Fine, if you insist, I'll just have some coffee and toast. I don't want anything too heavy.""Okay, if that's what you want."Suddenly, Jasper's phone buzzed again. "Jasper, your phone is ringing," I called out."Who is it?" he asked."It's a text.""Go ahead and check it," he said, handing me the phone.I opened his inbox and saw that the message was from Julie.I apologize, Jasper. Can we please talk and resolve things? I have been trying to reach you via phone calls, but you haven't responded. I am eagerly waiting for your call back.Should I reply to her, I asked Jasper.No don't, just ignore her . Jasper said angrily, and continued.By the way, our parents are planning to visit us tomorrow. But for tonight, it's just you and me. Hey, don't mind my silly gestures; I'm just trying to make you laugh, he said jokingly."I hate you!" I exclaimed angrily."Oh, you know you love me," Jasper teased back."I do not," I retorted.The rest of the d
