"You liked it?"

"Liked it? It was the poem that made me regret that I hurt you. I even remember the lines --
They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason will change the way I feel.
For no one knows the heartache that lies behind my smile,
No one knows how many times I have broken down and cried.
I want to tell you something, so there won't be any doubts,
You are so wonderful to think of, but so hard to be without."

"When I was just about to pass the point, you came ripping all the air from out of my lungs. It doesn't matter if you are from the moon or the stars. You are what I am."

"Our timelines weren't in step, if time can really be turned back, give me one last chance. If I get to live this life again, I will find you sooner."

My eyes are sweating and my cheeks getting moisturised.

He continued, "tonight if I reach my hand to you, can you hold that hand? I'll become you. You just have to look at my galaxies, be showered with those stars, I'll give you my world. The lights illuminating your eyes, they are mine now. You are mine princess."

I moved back. I don't want to say this but I don't have a choice.

"It's too late Shi Jin."

"It's not late, we can still be together."

"No. I already promised my parents that I'll marry a guy of their choice and I was even about to meet him today. And you're also going to be engaged tomorrow so...It's better to forget each other and continue with our lives."

His face turned cold in a second and then started laughing hard in the other second. Is he going psycho?

"Why are you laughing?", I asked.

"Sorry, I just couldn't control myself after what you said," he once again started laughing by holding his belly with one hand and wiping the tears with the other.

"What's so funny?"

"You already met your fiance."

"When? I only met a delivery boy and I don't think he is the one," my expressions are confused.

"You are really an idiot dumbass!"

"I am seriously not getting a single word."

"Sakshi, you are still a baby?", I turned back when I heard a familiar voice. It was my dad. And our families too.

"Dad? When did you all came? Min Young unnie and mr. Min too? And why you all are laughing?", I asked after being annoyed.

"Let me explain. You already met your fiance today," my mom came towards me.

"When mom? I didn't meet anybody," I rebelled.

Are they all out of their minds?

"Really? Then whom were you talking to this long? A ghost?", she commented.

I stopped for a while to understand the scenario.

"You mean-"

"Yes, my stupid bear. Shi Jin is your fiance," she started patting my back, "I know you both love each other so we planned for a small surprise for you."

I turned back and found Shi Jin kneeling on one knee with a ring in his hand.

"You have two options, be mine or make me yours," he winked.

I covered my mouth with my both hands to prevent myself from shouting. I don't know why I am a cry baby. I seriously can't believe that all this is actually happening.

"Princess, next time I will ever get on my knees for a girl, it will be to tie the shoelaces of our daughter. I can conquer the whole world with my single hand if you are holding the other. So will you take my responsibility?"

"I object this proposal!", a mysterious voice came from the back. I once again turned back and--

"Hye-"

All my four cockroach friends are infront of me. I can't tell you how badly I missed them.

"You can't marry without us!", said Rebecca.

I ran towards them and hugged Hye Kyo with full affection. She removed me by pushing me like a punching bag.

"What do you thought, huh? You will leave without telling us and we will not find you? And can I know the reason for hiding for so long? I thought my hairs will turn grey when I'll meet you next time."

"I am sorry Hye Kyo."

"It's ok. But you don't have any rights to say that we are no more friends. It's only our friendship that I have rights over forever. Old relations don't fade away when new relations are formed, so don't leave me again," she wiped my tears and hugged me again.

"Sakshi, are you both going to hug the whole day? Your groom is waiting for you," Wooseok said and we all started laughing.

Really, it's the best day of my life. I am so happy now that I don't even know when I laughed this much last time. It feels like I finally found heaven after living 7 years in hell, or like finding my spring after 7 bitterly cold winters.

I turned to Shi Jin and everybody started hooting. All the other people in the restaurant stood up and started clapping and shouting, "say yes!"

I came to Shi Jin.

"Yes, mr. popular, I am ready to spend my rest of the life with you. I've waited to say this to you for so long! Of course it's a yes, was there ever any doubt?"

The cold platinum ring with an infinity sign carved in it slipped in my ring finger. Our bond is stronger than the bond between the ring and the diamond on its top.

We're all a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

Shi Jin stood up and hugged me tightly and I don't know when I start hugging him back. I got everything in life but the golden piece was missing. Today I found that piece. It's Shi Jin who makes me complete. I hug him even more tightly. I don't want to leave him again. I will never. I want this moment to stop. I want this moment to stay forever.

Can't we stay like this till my last breath?
