Neighbor, Really?!

"Wait, what?" Anna narrowed her eyes and furrowed her brows, a hand pointing at Jack while the other arm was still clinging securely around the crook of Kristoff's burly arm. "So, you already know that Hans Westergaard is Elsa's ex-boyfriend but you haven't met him in person?"

Jack put his hands on his waist, deep in thought. He stared at the floor as if the answer to Anna's question was written on it. The longer he stared at the floor, the past memories flashed before him like a movie trailer, the deeper the frown on his forehead.

"Maybe I've met him." Jack said slowly. He looked up at the young couple in front of him, his face still very serious because digging up past memories turned out to be a lot of energy. And that's not something he would love to do.

He then walked around the young couple and stopped, leaning against the ping-pong table. One of his hands gestured for the two of them to sit at the dining table right across from him because he was about to tell his past.

"Maybe I've met him. But I didn't really pay attention to him. Because at that moment it happened so fast, while my entire attention was devoted to the most beautiful woman that my eyes had ever landed on."

Kristoff and Anna, who are now sitting facing Jack, folded their arms on the table, preparing to hear the neighbor's past story. Jack's gaze turned dreamy as his brain prepared to compile memories after memories he had experienced, he seemed to carry himself into a time tunnel, making him return to the past ten years.

"That day, was one of the happiest days of my life. The moment when I finally had the courage to propose to Elsa to be my wife. Because at that time, I wasn't someone Elsa should be proud of as her boyfriend. At that time, I was just an artist who didn't have a permanent job yet, while Elsa, she would be a successful lawyer. And she really is a successful lawyer now."

"Aawwww.. " Said Kristoff and Anna simultaneously. Anna even put her hands on her chest because she was touched by the opening story of Jack's past.

"I proposed to Elsa to be my wife at McDonald's-"

"Wait, what? You proposed to Elsa at McDonald's?" Kristoff interrupted, earning a sharp look from Jack. "Sorry, carry on, please."

"Yes, I proposed to her at McDonald's with a ring inside the burger patty. If you could see Elsa's face at that time, from surprised to happy, excited.. Oh, she was like an angel, so gorgeous-and for me, she's still the most beautiful woman on earth until now-she squealed in delight and she even dipped the ring in her coke to clean it up and handed it to me so I could put it on her finger. Although in the end when she realized that the ring had an engraving on it she felt a little disappointed-"

"Engraving? That should be romantic. Why was she disappointed?" Anna asked, confused. She looked at her husband who only shrugged his shoulders because he didn't understand either.

Jack was annoyed that his story kept being interrupted. So, he didn't answer and only glared at the young couple in front of him. And then he was ready to continue his story when Anna finally mouthed 'sorry' and turned her attention back to Jack.

"When I put the ring on her finger and asked if she would be my wife, I jumped into the cloud twelve when she said 'Yes!' without a doubt-"

"Awwww.."

"But then, a man, wearing a black baseball cap on his head and a black jacket-his face was not very visible but I could see a very drastic change in Elsa's expression. She suddenly became nervous and somehow scared. The man held out his hand and said-"

"My name is Westergaard. Hans Westergaad." Hans introduced himself in a firm voice.

Even though confused, Jack took Hans's hand and gave him a strong shake. "My name is Frost. Jack Frost."
