Episode 4

Anastasia was in her room with her boyfriend.

"And what brings you here? I thought you were in class."

"I was supposed to be."

The young man replied.

"But the truth is, I couldn't bear the thought of you being upset with me."

He said as he took the girl's face in his hands, pulling her closer to him and kissing her.

Anastasia accepted the gesture and hugged him.

"My love, I could never be mad at you."

"I know I was rude to hang up the call."

"Don't worry, I understand. Besides, we already had our night planned and I ruined it."

"Don't say that, beautiful. I imagine you didn't do it on purpose."

"You're right, my sister arrived yesterday and we had a family dinner."

"Wow, I didn't imagine it was your sister. Even though I couldn't see her face, I assume she's almost the same age as you."

Anastasia smiled.

"Let's say she is."

After resolving the misunderstanding, the couple set off for the university.

"I don't remember you ever talking about your sister."

The young man asked curiously, assuming that, as always, Anastasia's sister Anabela had captured everyone's attention, including his beloved's.

"Honestly, I never saw it as necessary. Besides, you never talk about your family either. In fact, now that I remember, why do you never talk about them?"

The man tensed up, and this gesture did not go unnoticed by the girl by his side.

"Don't worry if you don't want to talk about them, it doesn't matter."

The young man put his arm over the girl's shoulder and pulled her towards his chest, while with his other hand he held the steering wheel.

"Have I told you how much I love you?"

The girl pretended to think about it.

"Not today."

"Well, I love you, I love you, I love you."

He said as he kissed her crown.

"You know I love you too, David."

"I know."

"Well, tell me now how I can make it up to you for last night."

"Hmm, I don't know, let me think about it."

"Okay, let me know."

"Okay, beautiful, I have to go, I have class in 5 minutes."

"I have more time, so you go, love. In the meantime, I'll wait for Emma."

"I can't believe what you're telling me, Ana. Your sister is a bitch."

"Don't say that, it's just that she tends to be friendlier with men than I am."

She said, lowering her face in embarrassment.

"No, friend, that's not being friendly, that's being a bitch. I imagine David didn't fall for her game."

"He thought it was me."

"WHAT? I can't believe it, you two are so different despite the identical resemblance, I can't believe he mistook her for you."

Her friend said in an annoyed tone of voice.

"Well, it's logical, she was wearing a mask on her face, and she was also wearing a towel over her hair, so her red hair wasn't visible. Besides, in our house, it's just my parents and me, so it's logical for him to assume it was me."

"Even so, c'mon, one can distinguish their partner from others. What did he say afterwards?"

"Just that he had never talked to me about my sister, so I replied that we had never brought up the topic. Besides, I don't even know anything about his family."

"You're right, you've never told me anything about his family."

"That's because I don't even know anything about them. Sometimes, Emma, I think David is distant from them, but I would like to know why."

"Simple, ask him."

"Believe me, I will."

After classes, Anastasia waited for David at the university entrance.

"Hello, beautiful."

The young man greeted her, leaving a kiss on the girl's lips.

"Shall we go?"

"Of course, love. Do you want to go out to dinner with me?"

"Absolutely."

"Okay, let's go."

He said, taking the girl's hand to lead her to his car. After a few minutes, they arrived at the girl's house.

"Beautiful, I'm going to shower and change clothes. I'll come by at 7:00 PM, so make yourself even more beautiful than you already are."

Anastasia smiled and gave a chaste kiss on the man's lips.

"Alright, my prince. I'll wait for you at 7:00 PM."

They were at a luxurious restaurant.

"My love, everything looks beautiful, but you shouldn't have gone through the trouble. I imagine it's quite expensive."

"Don't worry, beautiful, this is less than what you deserve."

Anastasia smiled, in love. David ordered a bottle of champagne from the waiter.

"No, no, no, champagne is not necessary."

"Of course it is necessary."

The man insisted.

After dinner, Anastasia continued to wonder why her boyfriend had ordered champagne as she didn't remember any reason to celebrate. David seemed quite nervous.

"My love, is something wrong?" she asked.

"No, beautiful, why do you ask?"

"Well, I've noticed you've been quite nervous since we arrived, and excuse me, but I don't remember if we have something to celebrate."

David felt it was time, so he stood up from his chair.

"Well, beautiful, there might be something to celebrate, but it all depends on you."

"Me?" the girl asked, confused.

David nodded and immediately got down on one knee, taking the girl's hand while holding a small velvet box with the other.

"You are the most wonderful woman I have ever met, I fell in love with you from the moment I met you," David said.

Anastasia was surprised, unable to articulate words due to shock. David continued, "I want to spend the rest of my life with you if you allow me to. So, Anastasia Williams, will you accept to be my wife?"

Anastasia smiled, in love, and approached her boyfriend.

"I love you too, my love, and yes, I happily accept to marry you."

David released the pressure he had held in his chest.

"Phew, for a moment I thought you wouldn't accept."

Both kissed each other with love and passion. After the delicious dinner, David took his girl home.

"My love, we need to plan everything. I know that right now I can't give you a big celebration, but I want you to be my wife as soon as possible."

Anastasia kissed him and caressed his face.

"My love, you know I'm not one for grand celebrations, so if we get married just the two of us in a small chapel, it will be enough for me."

David smiled, in love.

"Don't overdo it, beautiful. It will be something simple, but believe me, as soon as I establish myself financially, I will give you the celebration you deserve."

Anastasia smiled and kissed him. Gradually, the kiss escalated and became a needy one. David started to caress the girl's body, and she reciprocated by putting her hands under his shirt and caressing his back. David couldn't help but let out a loud moan when he felt the girl kissing his neck, so he pushed her away with difficulty.

"For God's sake, beautiful, we have to stop. This is not the right time or place. When I make love to you, it has to be in a special place."

Anastasia, trying to control her breathing, nodded, feeling embarrassed.

"You're right. It's better that I go inside my house."

David left a quick kiss on her lips.

"I'll pick you up early tomorrow."

Anastasia nodded and got out of the car to enter her parents' large mansion. Once behind the door, she leaned against it and sighed, a smile spreading across her face.
