The next day, Carl woke up with a smile on jer face as she remembered what happened between her and Dylan the last day.
Her heart skipped a bit as she smiled.
" He is the only one who I am going to love." She said smiling as she went to take her bath.
She looked at her finger.
"I threw away our ring but our love chose not to go." She said to herself.
She walked to have her bath and came out minutes later.
She looked at her phone which she saw buzzing and walked over to pick it after drying her hands. She smiled on seeing that the call was from her father.
" Father! " She called picking up the call.
Her father spoke with her for some minutes disagreeing with her decision of accepting Dylan back.
"He has really changed, father." Carl said.
Her father smiled clearing his throat.
She looked up as she remembered when she went to meet Kamela in the hospital years ago.
"Father, I trust..."She was saying and her father cut in.
" I will only accept him back if he accepts my conditions. " Her father said.
" What condition? " Carl asked and her father smiled.
" To get married to you in some months time which is going to be next year. " Her father said.
Carl felt quite happy and sad about it.
She felt happy that she would be getting married to the love of her life soon but she felt sad that he would be compelled to marry her soon.
"Let him know of my conditions then let him tell me his decision." Mr. Robin said and ended the call.
Carl picked up the phone and stared at it.
She placed it down and walked to continue what she was doing.
"How am I to let him know of my Dad's condition. I do not want him to think that I don't trust him." Carl said to herself while selecting what she is going to wear for the day.
When she was done with pulling on what she wants to wear, she walked down the stair with her hand bag.
" Good morning Miss." Melinda said.
Kamela was already married to Joel and she visited the house sometimes as she along with her husband saw Carl as the one who brought them together.
"Good morning, how are you, Melinda?" Carl asked.
"I am fine, Miss." Melinda said and Carl nodded.
"The new cook has resumed her duty." Melinda said.
"Really, she is." Carl said.
"Yes Miss." Melinda said.
"Where is she?" Carl asked and Melinda pointed to the kitchen.
Carl walked into the kitchen and saw the new cook making breakfast.
"Good morning Neon." Carl said and the lady turned to face Carl.
"Good morning Miss." The lady said turning off the cooker as she was done preparing breakfast.
Carl looked at her and smiled.
The lady was younger than Kamela and this made Carl smile.
"Mind a cup of coffee?" The lady asked and Carl nodded.
The lady handed Carl a cup of coffee to drink which she collected with a smile on her face.
Carl drank the whole content of the cup and smiled.
"Done preparing breakfast?" Carl asked and the lady nodded.
"Yes, I will dish out some food for you." The lady said turning to the pot.
"I won't be eating today, Neon. Reserve the food for both you and Melinda and eat it whenever you feel like." Carl said and Neon nodded.
"Alright Miss." Neon said.
Neon is half American and half Chinese. Her father is an American while her mother is a Chinese.
She has a Chinese face as she took after her Mom.
"I would be leaving now." Carl said and both Neon and Melinda nodded.
.....
She walked out of the house with a smile on her face then entered her car.
She drove to her fashion house and went straight into her office.
Getting into her office, her phone started ringing and she walked to her chair then brought out her phone.
Seeing Dylan's name appear on the phone, she took a deep breath as she remembered her conversation with her father.
"Hello Dylan." She said picking up the call.
"Hi Carl. I am just passing by and I thought to put a call through to you." Dylan said.
Carl didn't speak making Dylan nervous.
"Carl, are you still there?" Dylan asked.
"Are you close by?, Can you come to my office?, I need to speak with you." Carl said.
"Can't we set up a date?" Dylan asked.
"This can't be said at a date." Carl said and Dylan took a deep breath.
"Alright, I will be coming to your office." He said and hanged up.
Carl looked up and smiled.
Carl smiled looking at her phone then dropped it as she looked into other things.
Some minutes later, she heard a knock on the door and smiled.
"You may come in." She said.
Dylan walked into her office with a bouquet covering his face.
"Dylan!" Carl exclaimed seeing him.
He walked to the table and dropped the bouquet.
Carl got up and hugged him tight.
"My love." Dylan said giving her a kiss which made her blush.
They broke from the hug and Carl could not help but smile.
"Alright, what do you have to tell me?" Dylan asked while sitting.
Carl took in a deep breath and looked at his face.
"I do love you and I really do love you." She said.
"Yes I know, you may go on." Dylan said.
"My father!" Carl said.
"What happened to him?" Dylan asked.
"He knows that we are back together." Carl said.
"Wow, that is good." Dylan said.
"He wants you to go the extra mile for me." Carl said.
"I really can do anything for you, my love." Dylan said.
Carl closed her eyes thinking of how she could tell her father's message to Dylan.
"He wants us to get married." Carl said and Dylan opened his eyes wide.
"Really?" He asked.
"Yes, he said that will be the only way he will be able to accept you." Carl said and Dylan smiled.
"It's an easy task since my father's blessing is always with me. When should we get married?" Dylan asked.
"In some months time." Carl said.
Dylan looked at her and sighed.
"I will always love you." He muttered.
He looked at her and smiled.
"I will put a call across to Dad so I can hear his voice again and plead with him for my actions." Dylan said and Carl smiled looking at him.
"I love you so much, Dylan." She said.
"I love you so much, Carl." Dylan said.
They spoke on other things and Dylan left.
Carl smiled looking at the bouquet.
She noticed a small box on the bouquet and a letter which she picked.
She read the letter and smiled.
She opened the box and smiled seeing the beautiful ring that was in the box. She wore the ring and smiled as she adored it.
"I love you so much." She said then kissed the ring.
Minutes later, her phone rang and she saw that the caller was no other than her father.
"I will love to see you both and bless your union whenever I get back." Her father said.
"Alright, Dad." Carl said.
She looked at the phone smiling as the call ended.
"I will be getting married soon." She said to herself and crossed her heart.
She continued what she was doing with a smile on her face.
Naomi walked into her office and greeted her.
"Good day, Miss." Naomi greeted.
"Good day Naomi." Carl said.
"You have a package, Miss." Naomi said.
Carl smiled nodding her head.
"Dylan is full of surprises." She said to herself smiling.
Naomi brought in the package and Carl smiled seeing that it was from her father.
"Dad!" She exclaimed happily.
She unwrapped the package and was marveled by what she saw. She smiled and walked to her table.
She picked up her phone and called her father who answered immediately.
"You just received the package." He said.
"Yes Dad." She answered. "The package contains both Dylan and I pictures but may I know how you got it?" She asked.
"Leave that up to me." He replied.
"Alright Dad." She said.
Hours later, she walked out of the fashion house and entered her car.
She drove home smiling as she looked at her ring finger.
"Mrs. Carl Robin Rodriguez." She said to herself smiling.
Getting to her house, she got out of the car and walked into the house smiling.
She walked to take her sit then switch on the TV. She tuned to a channel where she started watching a romantic movie.
" I just hope he can cuddle me like what is happening here." She said cuddling herself.
Done watching the movie, she switched the TV off and walked to the kitchen were she served herself some rice and ate then drank some water.
Satisfied with what she had, she walked up the stairs into her room.
