Let's Get Married

Lily sees the vulnerability in his eyes. She sees a proud man who longs for her understanding and another chance.

Lily never expects him to do all these tonight and is totally unprepared. She looks at the rose petals and candles and the exquisite surroundings, she is moved. This man has been used to being high and mighty and so each time he lowers himself, she will soften her heart and concede. She was like that five years ago, and she is the same now.

She composes herself and then says, “I didn’t expect to bump into you five years later, much less to return to J city with you. All these happen so fast and I don’t know…”

“I know, I know.” His voice was quivering as he can feel the ripples in her heart. “I don’t expect that you completely forgive me and not hold a grudge against me. I just hope that you’ll give me a chance and let me take care of you and the child.” Rex says sincerely. Thinking of them being alone all these years without him by their side to take care of them, he feels very guilty.

Lily couldn’t resist her tears and the crystal-clear tears start to flow. She shakes her head and is afraid that she is mistaken, “I don’t want your pity or you to make amends. I don’t need them.”

“I didn’t pity you and it’s not out of pity that I’m doing this. We are the ones hurt by this. So what right do I have to pity you?” Rex looks towards her tear-soaked face and frail demeanor. He couldn’t resist and goes forward to hold her into his embrace. His fingers lovingly hold her tear covered face and he slightly bends forward with his forehead against hers while looking into her eyes.

Lily is dazed and couldn’t control her sobbing. She almost sinks into the loving embrace when she remembers when she was imprisoned five years ago. Lily feels a chill running down her spine.

“What’s the matter?” Rex notices her changing expression.
