A villain is just a victim whose story hasn't been told.

Four days ago, Tristan and Kim woke up happily by each other's side and they went about their day cheerily. Unfortunately Tristan had work so he left.

Kim went to see Imade and Deborah and the smile on her face made them know something happened. "Did you do it?" Imade asked excitedly.

"Yes" Kim squealed. "and guess what? He proposed!". She showed them the ring on her finger.

Deborah and Imade squealed in excitement then kept quiet after that got them looks. "I can't believe it, i'm so happy for you" Imade said beaming with smiles. "You are so lucky."

"Thank you" Kim said happily.

"That is so great, that means you are going to be part of the family now" Deborah grinned pleased. "I can't wait to tell mom and dad, they will be so excited Tristan is settling down."

"When is the wedding?" Imade asked.

"I don't know but I have to talk to my uncle and aunt. I can't wait to tell Cindy" Kim said happily, "I can't believe this is happening, it feels like a dream."

"A good one, congratulations" Imade said and picked up her glass of juice. She raised it, "let's cheers to this."

Deborah nodded enthusiastically and raised her glass. Kim raised hers and they all cheered and clapped.

In a table close by was the man who took pictures of Kim two months ago. He was watching Kim dangerously.

At night in Tristan's house, Tristan returned home and He and Kim laid on the bed. Tristan had his arms around Kim's waist. "So Tristan, how many children do you want?" Kim asked.

"Hmm, I don't know. You?" Tristan answered.

"Two, two girls or a boy and a girl is fine" Kim said.

"I'm okay with anyone that pops out" Tristan said and kissed Kim's forehead.

"I like this." Kim said softly. "Tristan, if you are going to marry me, I hope you know you have to see my family. This is Africa."

"Relax, I have lived here long enough to know what goes on" Tristan said, "and besides, I did tell you I would propose when I was done with the brotherhood. I still have a few things to sort out."

Kim turned at him sharply. "What do you mean by that?" She asked, "so when exactly are we getting married?"

"You see, I was just a bit eager to propose and I proposed early" Tristan said awkwardly, "can you wait a bit more, let's say...three to four months?"

"Tristan!" Kim exclaimed in disbelief. She sat up pouting and began hitting him with her pillow. "How could you do this to me? How could you propose when you weren't going to marry me immediately?"

"I couldn't help it. Relax, at least I didn't a you to wait for a year" Tristan said. Kim just glared at him and began to get up.

"Wait wait, I'm sorry" Tristan said, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her back. "I promise to make it up with the best wedding ever."
