The next day I didn't go to the book shop because Steve asked me to have breakfast with him, and he seems so strange, but I know this all about his proposal thing. After the breakfast he drive me to my studio.

"So you busy around 4 pm?" He asked as I open the car door and stop.

"No." I said turning my body towards him.

"Well I will pick you up." He said and I smile and I walk out the car.

"Okay see ya then." He smiled and I shut the door.

I quickly walked in to the studio and then there was Jane. "Hey." She smiled and I look at her with my worried panic face. "Something wrong?" She asked.

So we went upstairs and we stood in front my painting of the eye. "So what do you want to talk about?" She asked and I look at her.

"Steve is going to propose to me," I said and she quickly turn at me and shock. "I think so." I frowned.

"Well then why? Aren't you suppose to be happy?!" She said excitedly as I try to hold my tears. "Wait... don't say there's something." Suddenly tears just fell from my eyes and then I quickly flung my arms around Jane.

"I can't I don't love him enough." I said crying.

"Ana..." She said frowning and she pull me slowly with both her hand on my arms. "Are you in love with my brother?" She suddenly throw that question to me and I stop crying.

"I don't know, Steve is perfect, but Ralph the guy I never asked to come, but he come." I said and she smile.

"So if you love him why not?" She said and I began to cry again.

"I... I don't know," I pulled myself away from her and then lean my body to the wall. "Maybe I'm a fool." I said and she cross her arms and look at me.

"No youren't! Both of them are amazing, but in the end, you need to choose one." She said and I look down. She's right.

So all day I decided to focus on a sketch for my exhibition in less 3 months, Jane been making calls for a charity or company to sponsor our exhibition. I just sit and throw 50 papers on the floor and now I'm stress about 2 things, the sketch, and my love life. Suddenly there was a text from Steve.

4 pm still? I'll be there 10 minutes earlier.

Okay, why? I answered.

You love surprise. I smiled.

So I haven't seen or well text and call Ralph. He seems doesn't want to talk to me again, oh well... I put my phone away and walk out the room.

After having lunch with Jane at restaurant near the book shop, and I saw Ralph walking out the book shop as I finish my lunch. "Jane I forgot my phone at the studio, probably someone will call me." I said my excuse to Jane who still far from finishing her lunch.

"Yeah sure, I will take care." She said smiling as I quickly left the table and I quickly went outside and try to find him. He was across the street and then I walk across and he go to the left and I keep following him.

"Ralph!" I shouted and he stop. He turn around and he look at me shock.

"Ana." He said confused and I run towards him.

"Sorry I didn't go to the book shop." I said and he smirk.

"I know, I already expect you won't come." He said and I look down.

"You know about last-" as I look up to him.

"I shouldn't have say those words." I shock my head.
