Exiting from there put next stop was The Times square. We wandered there aimlessly with hands in hand. I stole glances back at kang and every time I found him starring at me. His intent gaze filled my stomach with butterflies. We reached the Times square and- it was heavily crowded. Kang held my both hands and knelt there too with a ring in hand.
"As you have forgiven me Yihwa, I want to ask you one more time. Even if you say NO today I'll be there for you every time you need someone. But I want to be that one and only man of yours. Will you marry me ?"
I was in the middle of processing that definitely I heard him say Yihwa. But how, what Noona said was truth ?
The heavy swarm of people started shouting 'Say yes'. Tears swelled up in my eyes, I didn't know what to do. When a few yelled in disbelief.
"Look it's that Korean tycoon from the charts. What are you waiting for girl say yes. He is the one."
I wanted answers before I could take our relationship to a seriousness. Moreover I had to tell him about my child. I really wanted to love him openly but some things were clinging onto me like chains. To save his reputation I nodded in yes for that moment, and he slipped the ring into my finger.

KANG' POV
As we entered the mansion I thrust my lips onto hers. While she pushed me back forcefully.
"Why are you doing this ? When you already know everything, why all this torture ?"
This was all I heard in the response of my true feelings towards her. What should I say, how could I explain to her that I wasn't playing, I was unable to control my anger.
"Tssk unbelievable."
Moisture filled her eyes and she dashed towards her room.
This wasn't the end I wanted the truth from her lips, and wanted to state my feelings again. I ran towards her room and the door flew open.
"Crying huh ? For kissing me or missing someone else ?"
I spit sarcastically seeing her weeping. I knew I was no less than a jerk that very right moment.
"Go away please."
She pleaded with those innocent eyes same as one year ago.
"Don't you think you should open up with me now ? It isn't too late still. Why don't you try to believe me ?"
"What do you want me to do ? You did what you ever desire."
Now she was sounding like a lady.
I stepped foward and hugged her removing that cap. Her long dyed hair cascaded and fell upon shoulders.
"No love, that's not what I ever wanted to do with you. I just want you to be with me. Just trust me please I can make everything right."
She sniffed as her tears stained my shirt and faced me.
"You have the look babe. Saranghae !"
She chuckled weakly knowing what I meant.
"You can come to your true self now I know everything. I want to see Mrs Yihwa Kang."
I winked embracing her in my arms once again.
"Pfft Is that a proposal ?"
That naughty fox again questioned me innocently.
"What do you think ? "
"It's a better offer boss."
I unbound her hair and the old Yihwa was in front of me, gorgeous and feminine.
"It's a life time opportunity."
I settled the strand behind her ear which was shamelessly kissing her cheeks.
"You know when you arrived at my place I didn't take a liking to you but gradually you became the boss, the gentle sunshine in my life guiding me throughout . You crawled into my heart without even doing anything that's why you are the first woman and last woman I would be marrying."
I confessed my feelings and she blushed lowering eyes with a tomato face.
"Knock Knock."
Camilla giggled imitating the knock through words. As I turned back I saw the two adults peeking like kids and enjoying the view.
"You two were eavesdropping ?"
"Ah yes we didn't want to miss the reunion of two love birds."
Eduardo opened the door and the couple strode in- hands in hands.
"Congratulations brother you got your love."
"Thank you brother."
And I winked as his plan worked effectively.
"Now you two gentlemen please excuse us. I want to see my sister in female clothes. She probably had a hard time wearing these chest binders."
Camilla chirped excitedly.
"Oh sure. I'm impatiently waiting."
