Annie sat on the sofa sullenly and red at Aaron. “Mister Aaron, what are you doing? Do you have


    any idea just how much trouble you’ve just caused me?”


    Aaron smiled and said, “I’m causing you trouble?”


    Annie nodded resolutely. “Yes! How am I supposed to exin this to my parents?!”


    Aaron pursed his lips and said, “It’s simple. Just don’t exin anything.”


    Annie crossed her arms and said angrily, “How can I not exin? Now both of them think you’re my


    boyfriend. One day, they’ll find out you’re not actually my


    boyfriend, and I’ll never hear the end of it from them!” “Then why don’t you just ept me as your real


    boyfriend? That way, there will be no need to exin anything.”

    Annie was stunned for a moment, but she turned away from him. “I’ve told you a thousand times to


    please stop making these jokes! I can’t afford to y emotional games such as this, especially when


    my parents are involved! Go y with someone else, Mister Aaron.”


    Aaron picked up the cup of coffee from the coffee table and took a sip. It was the cup of coffee Jenny


    made for him when she was entertaining him.


    After a moment of silence, Aaron said, “I can’t afford to y this kind of emotional game when the girl’s


    parents are involved as well. The fact that I’vee to your house, means I’m not ying with you,


    Annie. Why won’t you believe me?”


    Annie was speechless for a long time. She just looked at him quietly, trying to see if he was joking.


    However, he was as serious as one could be.


    “Aaron, I really can’t afford to fall for you anymore. Plus, you do know you’ll have to eventually marry


    me if you want to date me, right?” warned Annie.


    Aaron smiled and said, “Yup. I don’t mind marrying you.”


    Annie frowned. She did not know how nonchnt he was toward marriage.


    “The kind of marriage I want is the kind that won’t ever end up in a divorce! And unlike you, I’m not the


    type who’ll bail the moment things get tough,”


    emphasized Annie.


    Aaron suddenly felt the pressure. He sighed and said, “What do I have to do to make you believe I


    seriously want to marry you?” “I don’t know either. In any case, I don’t think you’re suited to married life.


    And also, I’vee to understand I’m not special. I can’t change anyone, nor am I anyone’s special


    person.” “You are my special person, Annie. Before this, I never thought about marrying or spending


    my life with one woman! You have changed me. So why don’t you take a leap of faith with me?”


    Annie looked at him in shock. “All of my previous rtionships ended in failure!


    So, no! I won’t take the leap of faith with you. I never want to experience the feeling of failure again.


    Sorry, Mister Aaron, but you should look for someone else. I’m sure there’ll be plenty of other women


    out there who’d be willing to take the leap of faith with you!”


    Aaron put down the coffee cup with a thud. “I’m being serious here. I really want to marry you, and I


    have every intention to stay married to you! But I can’t promise you that because no one can say for


    sure what will happen in the future. I don’t want you pointing your finger and calling me a liar one day!


    Annie, I really hope you’d at least give it some consideration. I promise I’ll take this rtionship


    seriously, and then we’ll get married, okay? I really, really mean it this time.”
