Chapter 30
The girls took me straight to my parents, they are not in the party hall, they're with Eric grandfather. We passed the party hall before getting here, am surprise the party was still on and people didn't even know about what happened
"Mom, dad," I said, they turned and hugged me, mom has tears in her eyes
"Thank God you're fine," mom said sobbing, I hugged her back.
"I told you to trust my grandson," Papa said with pride, I get Eric told them everything and his plan.
"So where is grandmother?" I asked boldly, he shook his head in pain
"She's away for now," he said. My dad tabs my back and requested to speak to me alone, I then shift to the corner with him.
"Am glad you're safe?" he said
"Thanks"
"But are you sure you can keep up with this family and their crisis, for even though the culprit was found this time around, they will always have people after them," he said, Eric said the same thing, and am not backing down.
"Dad, we always have enemies, God is the one that fights for us, so do not be afraid," I said, besides Eric hasn't proposed or anything, after that we went back to the others.
"This is a party so let's get back to the party," the grandfather said and we all laughed
"What of the culprit?" I asked
"Taken care of" I heard my Eric said, coming beside me "tomorrow we will go visit them in the station," he said, hearing his voice made me moan.
"Did my voice just made you moan?" he whispered to me, I gasped and looked around, I hope nobody noticed
"Don't worry, your secrets safe with me?" he said "excuse us," he said to everyone and took me to the party hall.
"Here's your mask," he said handing the mask over to me, I wore it and he wore his.
"Have this dance with me Barbie," he said, the music was slow and steady, people were just waltzing around
"Sure monster," I said and he growled, making me giggle
"We will make everything public tomorrow," he said as we waltz around
"Won't it attract publicity?" I asked
"My life is all about publicity, and I have to, so others will learn not to mess with me," he said, I nodded
"I know you don't like attention, so I won't involve you, the audio and video is enough evidence," he said and I smile, this moment nobody exists except Eric. I hear the music slowly play, and I dance around also listening to his heartbeat.
"Barbie" he whispered and I moan snuggling inside him the more, he kissed my forehead
"Will you marry me?" he asked and I gasped, not in a million world did I think he will propose, he pulled apart
"I know my life is a mess and will always be under the public eyes, which you hate most, not to mention the dangers ahead," he said looking so desperate
"I know we are young and still have a lot of years ahead of us to meet new people, I know all this but am here asking you to marry me," he said breathing heavily
"Eric," I said
"I know you will be conflicted, that you have hope of meeting new guys, and saying yes now will only cripple you, so how about you give me the answer, perhaps 9-10 years from now, after you have explored the whole world and meet with new people. I will still be here to hear your answer for you're the only one for me, be it now or a thousand years from now," he said, I fell deeper as I saw the sincere look on his face. My next answer will be the turning point of my life.
