Status: It's complicated

Chapter 11: Can i taste your ice cream?

Hello! Welcome back! We left Liam and Anna in an awkward situation. She left her phone alone for 15 minutes and now Liam is on the way to her apartment.  

Liam: Why are you not answering my call ?

Liam: Could you please call me back?

Anna let out a sigh, many things were going through her mind. Calling him back wouldn't hurt right? She lingered her finger above the call button but before she could press a the call button, her doorbell rang. Her head snap towards the door. She stood up from her sofa and walked over to the door, the moment she open her door, Liam pushed opened the door and pull her in for a hug. she struggled and pushed him away. He is so rough!

" What are you doing ?!" She raised her voice at him. She was in shock. She didn't even have a chance to let the fact that her nervous looking boyfriend is outside her door sink in.

" Anna.. nothing happened between Shirley and I." He said it clearly. Confident and clearly.

"She acted like you guys were back together.. " she mumbled under her breath as she looked down. She don't even know if she should believe his words. His ex just suddenly shows up and acted as though they were back together! Seriously?!

Flashback..

Liam stopped by a Jewellery shop. The same shop that Chandler and Julie caught him with Shirley the other time. He parked his car and walked fast towards the shop. He pushed open the glass door and walked towards the ring section. He remembered he saw this beautiful diamond ring. It was a simple white gold ring, with a diamond in the middle. It was simple small solitaire. Simple, classy and yet elegant.

While he was buying the bracelet for his ex girlfriend, these pair rings caught his eyes. He wanted to get that for Anna that day but he didn't had the courage to. They just started their relationship and he didn't want to scare her away.

" Hello Sir.. May I ...." the sales assistant did not have a chance to finish her sentence when he interrupted.

" I want both of these " he pointed to the ring though the glass. He had his index finger pointed on the top of the glass table, in the direction of that particular ring design.

" You can have a look.." she took both the rings, placing it on the black velvet tray beside her. His ring was a simple white gold band with one diamond stud on top. He took up the rings, taking a closer look at them. Honestly, it only took him five seconds for him to give back to the sales assistant.

" Wrap it up, thank you." He smiled at the sales assistant. He didn't have the courage to buy for her then, but now, because of this unexpected situation, he needs to let her know that she is his.

Flashback ends

He took out a black velvet squared shaped ring box, opening it, revealing the solitaire. She gasped at the sight. It wasn't the ring that surprised her, well.. maybe partly is, but the fact that he just bought a ring for her. Is he proposing?

Oh dude, you do look like you are going to propose.

" Believe me ??" Her attentioned turned to his left hand, on his fourth finger, he had a ring on! She knew it instantly that it was a couple ring because the design was similar, it's just that hers was a solitaire and his was a diamond studded in. No words can describe her heart beat now. If one could actually feel her heartbeat now, it would probably hit like sledgehammer. So please, say something or at least do something!

Before she could think of what to react, he lift her left hand up, and let his lips lightly lingered on the back of her hand as he kissed her hand. She couldn't help but look up at him. That was when their eyes met for the first time that night. He took her ring off the ring box, placing it on for her. He smiled when he didn't feel her struggling or having any rejections towards his move.
