Everything was ready at William's house, his mother had gone a bit over the top, William was getting dressed when his brother came by.
Jacob:Nice to see
William:Lol, you idiot
Jacob:You gonna ask her to be your girlfriend?
William:No, you really want me to be rejected, huh?
Jacob:I just want you to sort things out with her and finally be happy once and for all
William:I don't know, brother, it's going to be a bit complicated
Jacob:Nothing is complicated if you try to simplify it
William:I don't even know if she'll come
Jacob:She will come for sure. Get all handsome, tell her everything you feel, brother, don't let this chance slip by, be the one to make her give up that doctor for you.
William:And if it all happens again?
Jacob:It won't, trust me, if she’s different, like our mother says, then she won't do that. And if she's interested in you, even with you in that chair, she'll stay interested even when you get out of it.
William:Okay, thanks
Jacob:I gotta go now, who knows, maybe we’ll end up planning just one wedding, huh? Lol
William:Shut up, lol
Jacob:Handsome, hot, stud
William throws a hairbrush at him, Jacob runs out and closes the door, both are laughing. William continues to get ready. He's in smart attire but without a suit and tie, just a nice dress shirt and a blazer since it's cold.
Juliana:May I come in?
William:You already did
Juliana:You look handsome
William:Mom, this feels like a wedding, just missing dad coming here to say something
Juliana:And we will be here saying it again when the actual wedding happens
William:Only you
Juliana:Everything’s ready, I'm glad you're following your heart, she's a wonderful woman, I already see her as a daughter and daughter-in-law
William:Don't get your hopes up, mom
Juliana:Of course I will, you two like each other and will end up together
William:I'll find out tonight if she likes me
Juliana:Your father and I will have dinner at a friend's house, then we’ll head to the apartment
William:Okay, thanks
Juliana:Good luck dear, I'm rooting for you both
William:Thank you
She kisses him and leaves. William finishes getting ready and goes down to the living room, checks the garden to see if everything's ready, looks at the dinner arrangements, and instructs the house staff before settling in the living room.
Although it wasn't time yet, he was nervous. William stayed in his office while time passed, checking the clock every few minutes. At 7:00 PM sharp, he went back to the living room.
Impatiently, William longed for Helena to ring the doorbell. He waited facing the door. As minutes passed and she didn't arrive, William was losing patience. At 7:30 PM, he didn’t want to wait any longer; surely nothing had happened to her, she wasn't going to show up, she hadn't accepted the invitation. Disappointed, William turned around, about to give up.
As William was turning back to go to his room, the doorbell rang, his body trembling, he approached the door and opened it.
There she was, standing timidly, which only made her all the more beautiful.
Helena was bashful, William just stared at her and forgot all the anger he had felt waiting; she was stunning.
After a few minutes of looking at each other, he broke the ice, making her smile.
William:Who do you think you are, making me wait, Doctor?
Helena:Lol, that's one way to say 'good evening, Helena', so I'll say: good evening to you too, Mr. William.
William:I didn't find it funny, I issued a subpoena and you disobeyed
Helena:I can only imagine how upset you were waiting here; your mood gives it away, lol. Sorry, I really did get held up
William:Your apology better be a good one
Helena:Are you going to leave me at the door?
William:Why didn't you enter, Doctor? Make yourself at home
Helena:Thank you
She enters, laughing at him. William was serious but inwardly smiling too; his arrogance and irony didn't annoy Helena but made her smile instead. He was very arrogant and complainy, and that made her smile.
