As usual, once the day was over, Leo finally came. It's not that he just came, but the man seemed to have been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw Aini come out, he immediately waved his hand so excitedly. Usually Aini would feel embarrassed or annoyed when she did this, but now she actually smiled a little before running to Leo's side. Maybe he did it all because he wanted to show Dave that he was really serious about what he said—that he would fall in love with Leo again. 
Aini knows that Leo is not the best man she will ever get, but she will continue to fight to make this a valuable thing. He also wanted to give Leo a chance; maybe he had changed. People can change when they are serious about their feelings, and it can happen to Leo too. Or at least that's what Aini hopes for now. 
"He and the boss had a fight, right?" whispered one of the workers who came out. 
"They seem distant today, maybe because of this man."
"He looks like a spoiled child who was given everything because of his parents' wealth, aka lazy!" said the first. All of that, of course, Leo heard; he frowned disapprovingly and glared at them. 
"If you guys have a problem with me, tell me directly; don't play behind like that, it's disgusting!" Leo replied to their words, making the two workers who were gossiping immediately run away and not want to have anything to do with Leo. 
Aini, who saw and heard that, shook her head before chuckling softly. "Why respond?  Don't you never respond to people like that? Your actions earlier were not at all like your usual self.
Leo seemed surprised by Aini's words; even the tone spoken by the woman seemed to be trying to joke together. It's not that Leo doesn't like it; it's just that this indicates that Aini has tried to open her heart. A wide smile appeared on Leo's lips before he finally hugged Aini tightly. This action made Aini let out a muffled scream, surprised by Leo's sudden action. 
It took a few moments before Leo let go of the hug. even though Aini had patted his shoulder and asked him to let go of the hug. When she was able to breathe easily again, Aini gave Leo a small smile again, making the man confused. Aini didn't say anything before she took Leo's hand and looked at him seriously. Obviously, this made Leo blush a little. Aini didn't usually act like this; she had every right to be embarrassed. 
“Is there a problem?” stuttered Leo. Aini answered with a shake of her head before squeezing Lleo's hand tightly. 
“For tonight, can we eat where I want?" "There is one place that I really miss and can only be found in that place.”
"Of course.  "Whatever you desire, of course I will create it.” With that said, Leo opened the door for Aini to enter before he ran back to his seat behind the wheel. "So where are we going?"
"Just follow my words; we'll be arriving in no time." Leo was speechless upon hearing that, hesitating whether he should follow Aini's words or not. However, in the end, he nodded his head and gave a wide smile as if he agreed to Aini's wish. 
"Okay.  "In exchange, I also have a surprise for you, ok?”
Actually, Aini didn't like the gift Leo said at all, even though he didn't know what to give. Only if it was from Leo would he be sure that it wouldn't be pleasant. especially with the fact that he will set their wedding date in the near future. If his father said, while everyone was still talking hotly, he should get married soon in order to attract public attention, And that, too, means having to have offspring soon. 
The coercion imposed on Aini made her really feel claustrophobic. How could he live up to their expectations without losing himself? Her body immediately felt chills at the mere thought of her having a child with Leo. No, no.  Things like that can't be happening. Or at least, he should stop their marriage first. It was the most appropriate action he should take in the near future. 
As Aini said, they finally arrived at the small restaurant not long after. Usually Leo always invites Aini to eat in a big and luxurious place, so obviously Leo was surprised when he saw that the restaurant was just a small one that even high school kids without much pocket money could afford. Maybe this is what Aini meant when she said she wouldn't get anything else because she also often ate here in the past. 
"This is the place, huh?" Aini nodded as she took the first step. Leo, who was still amazed, looked around with curiosity. What was so special about this place that it became one of Aini's favourite places? 
"I took you to this restaurant before, when we still had a good relationship."
“Eh?”  Leo suddenly stopped walking and looked at Aini with a gaping expression; he didn't understand what he had just heard. "We've been here before."
This time, Aini shook her head. "Not like that." I invited you, but you never came. Therefore, even if it hurts a little, I want us to be able to go to this place for the first time.”
Aini gave Leo the biggest smile she could show. Leo's heart rate suddenly quickened. In fact, as long as he had teased Aini so far, he had never felt a pulse like this. What does that feeling mean? Why did he actually feel like that just from the words and expressions given by Aini? Leo quickly shook his head and tried to think straight. 
Finally, after ordering, the two returned to silence for a few moments. Leo really wanted to ask Aini if Dave had scolded him massively earlier, but he couldn't bring himself to do something like that. So he just played with his hands, waiting for his order to come while watching the people who came there. Unexpectedly, the place was much busier than he had expected, catching his attention. 
"So what were you trying to say earlier in the car?"
"That!"  Leo immediately sat up straight and took out his cellphone. He was busy with the flat object for a few moments before he finally showed a photo to Aini. “How about this place?" Or do you want this one? There are many options you can use!
"What for?"  Aini, who had originally been paying attention to photos from Leo's cell phone, finally looked up to get an explanation from the man. He still gave a proud smile; I don't know the meaning or purpose of this smile. 
"What for?  "Why ask such a ridiculous thing?” Leo laughed loudly enough to distract some of the other customers. However, they quickly returned to their own business. When Aini didn't reply at all, Leo fell silent and focused on Aini. The wrinkles on his forehead looked so serious that Aini thought that he had made a mistake. "You seriously don't know?"
"No.  "Could you please explain?"
“All of these places... are places we will use for our pre-wedding photos! How?  "You like it, right?”
