"So... you are still not married?"
"No, not married or have boyfriend whatsoever. Why are you asking?"
"Can we make a promise?"
"Depends on what you want us to make a promise for -"
"You - me, get married to each other, if both of us haven't yet be married to anyone else by the time we reach 30" he said while pointing towards me, then him, while making the face he always makes when giving out ultimatum.
What? I was only 24 and finding out the true meaning of love and how it should feel to be in love. Should I make such promise too early?
"What would happen to us if either one of us fall in love after we got married then?" I asked.
"That would not happen. Considering marriage means you will commit your heart and soul to me as I will to you."
Xera Watts is best friend to Darren Niels since they met during high school and haven't been in contact since both started freshman in different universities. Being a girl that found that it is too hard to maintain a friendship with girls, she is always surrounded by guys, maintaining platonic relationships with them.
The question of life partner has never been asked to her until she graduated from university, reason being most girls her age have already started a family. Her traditional parents and busy body aunts and uncle kept haunting her with the same question whenever they had the chance to talk to her.
Can Xera found the one good enough to call husband? Will she accept Darren as her future husband? What will be in her way to prepare for her future? Will she meet the one?
