Lavi's POV

**

Mass is going on in there and am waiting out here hoping she'd show up any minute from now. She promised to be here at 7am and it 7:11am already.

Why isn't she here yet?

It's going to take another minute before my mom storm out of there in search of me. I sent her a quick text as I pace around like a groom whose bride was about to ditch him

*where are you?*

It didn't take long before her message beep through.

*Right behind you?*

I turned around and there she was as promised with that smile that makes my heart flutters anytime she flashes one at me. It's not even up to 24hours since I last saw her and yet; it feels like ages.

Goodness!

"Am I late?" Her tiny voice pulling me back to reality.

"N-no you're not" shooting her a small smile.

"The traffic was bad really and...." She began to explain

"Sshh; it's okay! You're here now so c'mon" pulling her towards the opposite direction.

"Where are we going now! I thought the entrance to the church is that way. Why are we headed in the opposite direction"

"Just trust me okay? We are almost there"

"Well am here because I trust you don't you think" she huffed at me.

"Then c'mon and stop being afraid"

She murmured incoherent words and followed either way.

Katherine's POV

We arrived at a much smaller room that holds so much peace and serenity. The atmosphere is beyond just welcoming. It feels like heaven on earth and even has the ability to wipe out any worries once we step our feet on the inside.

"Where are we?" My voice coming out in a whisper.

"Inside the chapel my Lady" reaching for my hand as he turned me to face him.

The room was much darker than I would have expected with only the candle flames giving light to the place. A statue of the holy virgin stood beside that of her beloved son with an open arms; reminding me so much of my mom most common gesture.

"Why are we here?" Looking up at his calm and collected expression.

"Well I brought you here for two single reasons..." smirking at me "...firstly to light a candle for your mom and secondly to make you a single promise"
