How cute that Kai thought that I was engaged to someone else. It may not have been a good sight for him but to my eyes, he looked absolutely adorable when he was trying to figure out about the ring. I didn't want to explain too much to him about the ring since it was a phase that I had gone through when I was still in college. Of course, I had worn some rings before when we date during high school, but it was those grungy kinds that I had come to grow over with.

This one was those kinds of rings that were an exact one where one would wear when they're engaged. Why I bought them which had cost me a diamond? Well, it is a diamond... but for real, I bought them because I couldn't stand girls and guys throwing themselves on me. Whenever I was at a party or a club... or just somewhere public like the café shop - they would try to flirt, try to get closer... slip in their number with a torn paper or even worst: tried their best to get laid with me. I was having none of those and for the last resort, I just thought having everyone think that I was engaged would be easy enough and would instantly have their dicks and vaginas off me.

Although I didn't tell Kai the whole situation, it was enough to tell him that it was just for looks, and it had been one of my every day looks a few years back. When I knew I was going to meet him and eventually get back with him somehow which turns out faster than I expected, I thought that there was no need to wear it anymore. Kai would think I was engaged as he did before.

But now, we're passed from being insecure in our relationship. Sure there are some little holes here and there, but it would soon to be patched with time. I found out time heal most anything, and we just might find out that our love would soon to take a new stage. Marriage. 

Was I too young to think about marriage with Kai? 

I don't know, but I do know that I want to tie the knot as soon as possible

Now on the 28th December of Christmas, I am on my way with Kai to his Christmas gift. I felt that giving a Christmas gift to Kai was a true challenge I had to think a lot for the answer. I didn't want to give him something that was more than just a simple meaningful gift. Something that would allow me to see his beautiful face all day long. For real, I will never get tired of it.

"Is this gift almost there? Because I'm hungry," said Kai as he leans forward to see the place we were at. It was another neighbourhood across town, and it took us about an hour drive there. We were driving for 40 minutes.

I grinned at his eagerness but also at his stomach growling. "We're almost there,"

"But you said that ten minutes ago! And ten minutes ago as well! Where Is It?" 

True, I had been telling him that but that's just because he couldn't stop asking since we entered the car. What was I supposed to say? That it would be an hour drive? Of course.

"This time it's real! We're almost there, just wait and see. Plus, I got some sweets on one of my compartment, sure you could find them like how you did my engagement ring," I teased, to which he turns his face away.
