They reach the Showroom. Reuk opens the car door for Leana and reaches his hand towards her. So that she will come out comfortably while holding it.
Lea:(surprise) thanks...
When the people in the mall who were working or shopping saw Reuk, the biggest businessman tycoon himself, the showroom manager and staff welcomed him very respectfully as everyone knows the status of Reuk.
Manager: It's our great pleasure to have you here sir...
Reuk (confidently) Same here.... Meet my girlfriend... Leana.
Manager: Wow... such a pleasure to meet you... mam.
Lea: (with little smile) same here sir.
Manager: Which type of dress do you prefer to see mam?
Leana looked at Reuk. Actually she was confused with color. She wants to wear a colorful dress with some elegant and beautiful design on it.
Reuk: Actually, We are getting engaged on Sunday. Will you please show us something suitable for such an occasion?
manager: Oh congratulations.... of course sir.... I will show you the best...
The staff show Leana a lot of white gowns for engagement, but she does not like any of them.
Reuk: What happened to Leana? If you don't like it, let's go to another showroom.
Lea: no... no... they are soo beautiful. Reuk... can i.. wear some dress of different color on our engagement....Actually i have to wear white wedding dress on our wedding day so......
Reuk: (gently) ofcourse... there is nothing to ask for, it's your choice... Anyways I like you in any thing you wear.

Lea: (changing topic): Please show me some other dresses .
Staff: Of which color mam.
Lea: like-different shades of red or blue
After trying a lot of dresses, Lea came wearing a bricked red-colored gown, she looked mesmerized to everyone over there.
Nova: Wow... Leana you are looking red hot in this... right Reuk.
Reuk: (embarrassed , blushing) Jane... let's make our choice now (left the place )
Nova: We will be there in five minutes..
Jane: Ok...
Leana while changing into her previous clothes. She was a little worried about her dress. She thought Reuk didn't reply back when Nova asked about the dress. I don't know if he liked it or not .
Jane and Reuk selecting clothes for Reuk. He already tried so many outfits but it seems like he is finding something else.
Lea: (whispers) Nova does he like the dress or not
Nova: Of course he likes it.
Lea : But... he..
Nova: Not to worry... Actually he was out of words at that time. (giggled)
Lea: What?
Nova: Yaa he got stuff by your beauty.
When Leana and Nova chit - chat with each other, Reuk selects his attire and leaves to change into.
(After a few minutes- He went out wearing a midnight blue suit and a light blue color check shirt inside it. He really amazed everyone by his look, especially Leana.
Koi.
She feel that she must be blind before that she never noticed that he is that handsome. She is really awestruck at that ver moment. When he saw her reaction he come so close to him that thir faces were just some inches apart, that they both can feel their breath the he he just directly looked into her eyes and start to find what she was actually thinks about him. Then he slowly wishper: How am I looking?
Lea (Without knowing she replied) : Damn Handsom....e
Then she realised what she said. She just put her hand on her mouth and blusher. He too had a beautiful smile when he heard that.
Then they both chang unto their own outfit and came out from the changing room. Then Lea insist Nova and Jane to select their outfit too for her engagement. And after insisting them for they finally bought theirs too. Reuk took care for all the bills even they are trying to pay their but he never listen to anyone when he decided to do some thing. Then Nova and Jane gave excuse that they want some privacy but actually they want Lea and Reuk have their privacy. Then Reuk decided to takes her to dinner after that he asked her to let him drive her home and then she said ok to it. and all the remaining time was totally silence and some kind Awkwardness between then then Reuk decided to break the ice so he asked: Let's have some icecream Which flavor do you prefer?
lea: I like chocolate.
Reuk: Okh wait... I will be back.
Reuk went to get some ice cream. Lea thinks- It's my third meeting with him and I feel he genuinely has a caring and warm nature. When the proposal came for marriage- I was a little nervous but Now I think he is nice. Meanwhile Reuk arrives.
Reuk: Here you go. Your chocolate flavor ice cream
Lea: Thanks... You also like the same flavor.
Reuk: hmm... enjoy. We have the same choice.
Lea: Life will be easy.
Reuk: hmm?
Lea: If we alike then fight will be less between us.
Reuk: oh....! Why did you get late in submitting the form?
Lea: Actually Jane came from the US after a year. So I thought to let them spend some quality time together.
Reuk: Oooo...
Lea: Do you know... where he called her?(excited)
Reuk: Where?
Lea: Game zone.
Reuk: Who called their girlfriend at....?
Lea: Exactly. this is what i thought. But after reaching there, I realised it is a nice place.
Reuk: Do you like that place that much?
Lea: Actually I like that place because of Ron.
Reuk: Ron? *Who is that guy*
Lea: Yaa... I spent all that time with him and did not disturb them.
Reuk: You spend all that time with him (fumming) *Who the hell is he? Getting into my love life.*
Lea: hmm...After a long time I had a chance to play all the games. He really takes me to my childhood.(deeply thinking)
Reuk: (little sad voice) Do you like him that much?
Lea: Of Course I like him.
Reuk thinks about how she is able to meet some other man in front of his future husband.. She is not even thinking about me and my feelings and praising someone else.
Lea: He is a smart, intelligent, mannered boy.
Reuk thinks she saw so many qualities of him in only 1 hour and what about me. Did she ever even notice How I am looking.What am I wearing? How am I looking towards her the entire day?
Lea: He is really cute.
Reuk: Cute? (my foot- fuming )
Lea: hmm... You know he is alone. So I thought about accompanying him.
Reuk: Alone?
Lea: Yaa.. (in a little angry tone) I don't understand why people give birth to their child if they are not capable of taking care of them?.
Reuk: Child?
Lea: Yaa... 4 year old boy. His parents got divorced. How can they be so mean? They didn't even think about him a little .
Reuk jumped in joy and Suddenly hugged her tightly. After a few seconds, Reuk realized that he was hugging her so tightly and then released her.
Reuk: hmm...What are you saying?
He was not able to stop his smile. Leana is stiff at Reuk's sudden behavior.
Lea: huh? (thinks- i forget) nothing. let's go.... it's getting late.
Reuk: (happily) hmm...
They both were in their respective thoughts and didn't utter a single word. Then they reach Leana home. Leana gets down from his car.
Reuk: bye Lea... good night.
Lea: (with a warm smile)good night Reuk. bye…
Then Reuk drove back to his home.
Leana laying on her bed and in a deep thought of Reuk. Why did he do that? What happened suddenly ? He hugged me so tightly. What I did.... ?phu... lets not think about it Lea... stop thinking.. stop thinking...
On the other side Reuk thought- What had I done? I just hugged her so tight.... Reuk lets not think about it... it is already done.. let's not think... do not think....
