"Nova? Can I talk to you for a bit?" Lanya asked and Nova followed her. "What is it, Lanya?" Nova asked, Lanya took a deep breath before speaking. "I...I-I..._I still... I still love you" Lanya said, looking straight to Nova's eyes which widen after hearing what she said. Nova pulled her closer and hugged her tightly protectively to feel the warmth coming from her. "I love you too, Lanya" Nova said as Lanya gave back the hugged.
Nova gave Lanya the new hairpin he bought. It was purple and the butterfly design is made of gems and real golds. "Isn't this too expensive?" Lanya worriedly asked. "It is nothing compared to how valuable you are, and yet It is, so you have to pay for it by smiling. Smile the way you always do just like before, but also always remember that crying is not a sin" Nova said while smiling.
Everyone bid their goodbyes to each other and when Lanya was walking away she heard Nova shouted. "LAN!! Inside that box! there! where I put the hairpin! There's a proposal ring inside! make sure to always wear it! cause when you come back here! I'm gonna marry you!!" Everyone who heard Nova looked at him and the guard made a way for him to put the ring on Lanya. After hugging her he kneels down and said "But before that. Lanya.. Will you marry me?" Nova asked everyone watching them started saying 'say yes, say yes, say yes'. Lanya didn't know what exactly she was feeling at that time, she happy and emotional but also heartbroken that she had to leave him. "Oh my! Lany!" Bahasht said loudly but just enough for her sister and Nova to hear. "I... I'd love to! Yes!" Lanya answered they both shared a kiss as Nova put on the ring to Lanya before hugging each other. Lanya looked at the apartment she'll be staying for a while, She looks at it thinking back on how Nova reacted to her answer. He was more emotional than her at that time. Lanya looks at the ring she was wearing and a small smile is seen on her face. "excuse me ms. are you perhaps Lanya?" the mailman asked. "Yes sir, how may I help you?" She asked, "Here's a letter for you Ms.," the mailman said and handed her the letter. And when she opened it, she saw a simple but cute looking letter.
"I'll see you again next December, My darling. make sure to be prepared cause we have a lot of things to think about when you come back!"
Was all that's inside the letter. Lanya once again smiled before looking back at the apartment and walking towards the door. "Yes Nova... We'll meet again. Until Next December..."
[P.s. she's not going to study abroad for a year but for 3-5]
With that, their December without each other started. It was hard to study especially that they're missing some people but surely it won't stop them from moving forward and looking for what's in the future. In life, there's always something that we'll only get if we wait while putting an effort to get it, yes it's tiring and some times boring, but we can't just give up on our dreams. If your plan didn't work, then change it but not your goal...
~The End~
