TIMELESS (englot GirlXGirl)

Chapter 15. End Game

Amara and Freya were just witnesses to a truly unique marriage proposal that unfolded right in front of them. "You did say I have your permission to ask you to marry me, didn't you?" Out of nowhere, Rina asked when they're having dinner.

"Yes?" Apsara responded with confusion.

"Then, marry me."

"So?"

"Would you like to live with me from now on? I recently purchased a unit on the twelfth floor of the same building where Freya and Phi Amara live. I currently lease one of the commercial units downstairs for my animal clinic. Since this condominium is also pet-friendly and I don't see any veterinarians here, it's a great place." Rina responded in a nonchalant manner.

"You've got money?"

"Of course I have. My parents are wealthy, so I am also fortunate enough to be financially well-off."

"I paid for all our dates! Mostly." The Apsara shrieked in disbelief.

"You never asked me to do it??"

"Are you out of your mind?" Apsara is currently experiencing a temporary desire to harm her own lover.

"I thought because I was younger you kept treating me; I wanted to pay, but-"

"Ughhhhh, from now on, my money is mine, and your money is mine!"

Rina glanced at Amara with a quick stare and asked, "Is it possible for things to happen like that?" Amara simply nodded in agreement as her sister gave her a deadly stare, while Freya is on Apsara's team. "Alright, I understand." Rina quickly agreed to it.

"I truly don't understand how you managed to enroll and graduate from Chulalongkorn, Rina." Amara sips her glass of wine as she waits for Freya's parents to arrive at the restaurant.

"I'm smart!"

"Yeah, I can see that." Amara couldn't help but answer once more, struggling to suppress her laughter, while Freya continued sipping her wine and avoiding direct eye contact with the couple in front of her.

"So? Yes, to marry me, right?" Rina whines, while Amara observes that Apsara is experiencing a mix of anger and happiness, indicating that she is going through emotional turmoil.

"Yes, of course! Oh my God!" Apsara's answer brought a bright smile to Rina's face. She carefully slid a perfectly fitting diamond ring onto Amara's finger. "You bought me a ring?"

"Doesn't a proposal typically include a ring?" Rina looks at Amara again, and Freya can't take it any longer.

"Yes, P'Rina. You have done everything correctly this time."

"Rin, please enjoy your wine while my sister reflects on her thoughts." After Amara said that, Freya set her glass down and asked Amara to accompany her to the restroom, to which Amara willingly agreed.

It's much easier to follow Apsara than Amara, as Amara tends to be quite paranoid, making it challenging to track her movements. Whenever Amara returns from Chulalongkorn, she always takes her time to explore her surroundings, sometimes getting lost in the process. Amara never goes straight home. She always takes a detour around Chulalongkorn, visiting the library, food court, and many other places before finally heading home. Amara never sticks to one mode of transportation; she's always on the move, switching from Grab cars to bikes. Similarly, Freya Harris appears to be employed at Chulalongkorn, but it seems that she now spends less time with Amara compared to when she was Amara's assistant.

Amara calmly explains that she has always maintained professional boundaries with Freya since she was her student. Her relationship with her former student occurs after Freya has already graduated from Chulalongkorn. Not only does she have permission from Freya's parents to pursue a relationship with their daughter, but she also has permission from the university dean: "You are free to ask him whatever you want; I have never done anything shameful." These are her final words.
