Chap 21

"Where are we going?"

"We'll go back to the island. I promise my siblings to bring you back there today. The truth is, they are planning to help me propose. But, when mom told me to meet him in the charity event, and Demi said it was the event that organized by your mom, I drive to go there as fast as I can. I'm sure they will all be shocked if they saw you wearing the ring."

Speaking of the ring, she raised her left hand again. It was a big antique ring with a big stone on it. It looks so expensive someone will sell it.

"Is this the size of your grandma before too?"

"No. I made it adjusted into your size."

"And how did you know my size?"

He just held his hand and clasped it.

"I mix drinks without measuring the liquids, so, I' used to guessing the measurement. I'm glad it fits exactly."

"What of it's not?"

"Then let's go and make it adjusted together. The important thing is, I gave it to you and I asked you."

"True. By the way, do you know that mom actually doesn't like you? That she hated men with tattoos?"

"I know. I already felt in the hospital. I know she doesn't like me."

"But look at her a while ago, she's already smiling brightly at you. Because of your mom. Do you know that a lot of women here wanted to be like your mom? Especially those who are in a charity field. My mom said your mom is what every woman wanted to be. Kind, helping, generous, and many mire but most of all, beautiful inside and out. Ig my mom won't know you your mom is, maybe she still forced me to stay away from you and marry someone else. She was actually a woman with principles, but with you, she seems to forget about that."

"You can't blame her, sweets. She's a mother, and she just wanted what's best for her child. My mom was the first one who scolded me about my tattoos before. It's out major argument, but eventually, she just let me do what I wanted to do. How can he remove it, anyway, right?"

"Why did you start having one, anyway? What benefits will you get on printing in your skin? Just curious, I'm not against it."

"Self-satisfaction, maybe. For me, it's a work of art. But, I did it to look cool. To fit in, but then it became a hobby later."

"It's good that you didn't put stop having one and just let your upper body have it."

He smiled at her. "If Dustin didn't let us live with him in his island, maybe I didn't stop putting an ink in my arm. I was kinda addicted to it. When Dustin mentioned about his island, an idea came up from me. It's to help Dustin make the island alive. He said yes on the proposal and let is live with him there. With the help of our brothers, little by little, the island became like that. That was when I totally forget about the having tattoos, when I was distracted on working on my own bar and club there. Why, sweets, do you hate men with tattoos?"

"No, it's not that hate it, but not a fan of it. I used to ask why they have to draw on their own skin. Like don't they have any paper to draw on? But when I met you, I kinda find it sexy now. Especially when I saw your bare upper body."

"Is it just my upper body that you saw bare?" He said with a tease.

"Fine. All of you bare and naked." She rolled her eyes in him that made him laughed.
