Lillian's perspective:

    It's October 8th, technically the 9th though, three days after the answer to the situation was answered. Every arrow had pointed to my twin, Tashi Norbu, the very answer I was hoping it wouldn't be. It was late at night, 12:04 to be exact, and I still wasn't asleep. Chaeryeong, who's laying next to me, knew I was awake. I was trying to sleep, I really was, but we had planned out things to do tomorrow. We were ending this once and for all. All of the sudden, I had felt Chaeryeong's body get pressed up against my back, and had arms around my stomach.

     "Lillian jagiya." Chaeryeong started. She's started using Korean pet names for me for the past few months, which I was fine with since she taught them to me. "What's wrong?"

     "I'm stressed." I sighed. "About tomorrow."

    "Oh Lillian, no need to be stressed, ok? We have everything under control, I promise." Chaeryeong replied with a compassionate voice. I turned around to face the woman I'm deeply in love with.

    "I know that everything's going to be under control, but I'm still worried." I began. "Tashi isn't just my twin brother, but he's the head of Duhanti Studios. They have the biggest chance of successfully suing me."

    "And? You can sue them at any time, you know that right? You literally designed several of Tashi's characters, but where's the credit?" Chaeryeong brought up with a beautiful and mischievous smile. She was right. I had designed three of Tashi's biggest and most important characters, but never gave me the credit. I even have proof that I designed them.

     I had kissed Chaeryeong deeply. I knew she was right, she usually is as well.

    "What did I ever do to deserve you?" I asked, smiling.

    "A lot of things. You are a great person." Chaeryeong replied. I smiled harder and blushed as Chaeryeong kissed me on the lips.

    "Babe, can I ask you something?"

   "Sure, what is it?"

   "Never mind. It's a stupid question." I sighed.

   "It's fine, I'll answer it." Chaeryeong replied with a smile on her face.

   "A few months back, we had a fun little argument where we were joking around about who'll propose first, and I was wondering, do you really have a ring ready for after the marriage ban is lifted?" I asked. Chaeryeong pulled on the blanket accidentally when she had turned to her night table. She opened a drawer and closed it a few seconds later. She had faced me again, holding something in hand.

   "Of course I was serious!" Chaeryeong answered with a smile on her face, showing me a ring. It was silver and had what I assumed was emeralds around. Me being playful, I had grabbed it gently and placed it on my index finger of my left hand. Chaeryeong and I started laughing.

    "Come on, give it back!" Chaeryeong said playfully.

   "But I want it!" I replied.

   "Why?"

   "Well, it's for me, isn't it?"

   "Yeah, and?!"

   "I want to be yours already!" I answered. Chaeryeong was shocked for a second.

   "Lil aein, you already are." Chaeryeong said, using my name cleverly. Chaeryeong gave me a passionate and soft kiss and snuck the ring off my finger.
