Once they both returned to L City, Hazel was immediately busied again with the amount of work she had to face during her internship. Her supervisor liked her enthusiasm for building robots and had wanted her to join him on his project.

During this time, Hazel would frequently video called home to look at the twin boys.

It was interesting to watch as they grew up. Their skins were no longer red and wrinkle. Although all they do was sleep, Hazel was satisfied to look at them.

According to Auntie Edith, the brothers were very easy to look after. Unless if they were hungry or have stained themselves, the two of them would sleep soundly. 

However, if one of them started to cry, the other would join in as well. 

Once Hailey mentioned that the babies had a unique, milky smell and this had made Hazel burned with jealousy. 

At the thought that the babies' smell would disappear by the time she returned home during their full moon celebration, Hazel became a little sad.

She wanted to smell the babies too.

Alex heard her spoke about this and laughed.

"What are you laughing about? Hazel hit at his arms playfully.

Alex lowered his head and smiled seductively at her. "If you wanted to hold a baby and smell them all the time, there is a way to do it."

The little rabbit tilted her head with an innocent look in her eyes. "What way?"

"Of course… you can have a baby as well."

Hearing her answer, Hazel's face turned bright red and she did not dare to look at Alex's face. Her hand reached to pinch him at his waist. "Hateful. I'm still young. It's too early for me to give birth."

Just thinking about having his baby made her feel shy and excited.

Alex laughed happily. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her face repeatedly, making her dizzy. Once he was able to calm down, Alex hugged her tightly as she rested her head on his chest. "Hazel Mo."

"En?" Hazel wanted to lift her head to look at him, but Alex was pressing her head to his chest and she was unable to move. No. It was she who did not want to move.

"When do you plan to marry me?"

Her heart skipped a beat. Hazel was in a daze, thinking that perhaps she had misheard things. However, when she lifted her head to look at his expectant gaze, Hazel knew that the man was very serious about her.

This was not the first time that she had heard Alex mentioned marriage.

When they started dating, Alex had spoken about his intention to marry her someday. Back then, Hazel was not very sure about her feelings towards Alex. She could only tell him that she will think about it.

A few months have passed since that time and Hazel thought that her feelings towards Alex had definitely changed.

This person had accompanied her for a long time and she could not imagine her life without Alex by her side. After spending her time with him, Hazel realized that her liking towards him was not because he had always been around for her.

From the way her heart would beat erratically whenever she saw him, Hazel knew that she was crazy about him.

At least, she could say confidently that she really does love this man. 

"I don't know," Hazel spoke after a long silence between them. 

His gaze drop. Alex knew that with Hazel, he has to be very patient. He had waited for years before he could ask her to date him. He had patiently let her know everything about him including the way she made him feel.

Alex knew that he would not mind waiting for Hazel. No matter how long it will take for Hazel before she would agree, there was nothing else that he could do other than to convince him that marrying him would be the best choice.

"Let's just wait until I graduate," Hazel continued. "Then… we can think about it." She recalled her previous conversation with her uncle and knew that it would be the best decision to wait until then.

There was an obvious trace of joy in his eyes. Alex was not expecting that Hazel would give an answer. His heart soared and Alex could not describe the happiness he felt.

Since Hazel was no longer hesitant about marrying him, then, the next thing he should do was to prepare a proposal and formally asked her to marry him.

"Alright." His voice was a little deep and hoarse as he could not mask the way her words had made him feel. "We'll wait until you have graduated.

…

On the weekend, Hazel spent her time at home with some chores. 

Alex had gone out earlier to meet a business partner and told her that he would return home after dinner. Without him around, Hazel had managed to settle her laundry and cleaned every nook of her apartment. When everything was done, Hazel sat down on the sofa and looked at the time.

A slight frown appeared on her face.

Alex had said that he should return around this time, but the man had not returned home.

Just as she was about to call him, her phone rang and Alex's name appeared on the caller ID.

A smile turned on her face and Hazel slid her finger on the screen to accept the call. However, the person who had greeted him on the other line was not Alex. Instead, it was his business partner, Daniel.

"Sister-in-law," Daniel greeted, making Hazel startled. "It's me, Daniel. Alex's business partner. Do you… remember me?"

"Un… Why is Alex's phone with you? Where is he?" Various thoughts came to her mind and Hazel began to worry. "Is he alright? Did something happen to him?"

Daniel let out a chuckle. "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Alex is alright. It's just that, the business partner was being a little difficult and Alex had drunk a little too much." He let out an awkward cough and continued, "He kept on calling your name and would not want to leave. If it's alright, could you come over and pick him up?"

Hazel paused as this was the first time that she had heard that Alex was drunk.. After getting the location from Daniel, Hazel grabbed her purse and called for the cab.
