"I'm sorry, did it take so long?" I asked him as soon as I was seated back on my chair.
"No."
He said while sipping his glass of water. He really can't form a simple sentence to answer, can he?
"So, what's with the deal you're going to offer me?" Honestly, I was freaking nervous inside. I wanted to blame Noelle for implanting some thoughts about his deal in my head.
"Madi, I want you to listen to me carefully. Until I'm done talking, I don't want you to interrupt me, is that clear?"
-'Whoa! Really? We cut the formalities but you're still ordering me.'-
I mentally rolled my eyes as I straightened my seat.
"Okay."
"I want you to be my wife," he said straight to the point and I almost choke the air in my throat.
-'What the---am I still hearing Noelle's words?'-
"I - I'm so.. I'm sorry?" this time I brought the glass of water to my mouth because it suddenly went dry. I gulped three times.
"Be my wife."
Thank God, I've already swallowed the water. If not, I am sure I spit it all to his face. I need to inhale more air as his words cut my air passage.

His face was masked with pure coldness and seriousness. And I gulped again.
