"I'm scared, Lia," said Lina, just after Camelia had finished putting on her makeup. She cut herself in front of the mirror with a scared look mixed in tension.


"I'm telling you how to succeed, brother. You have to be confident. Don't lower yourself. You're diamond." Camelia said by holding both of Lina's shoulders. His eyes full of confidence. Inversely with Lina's eyes.


"You're a competitive man, brother. Work well together."


Lina swallowed her saliva. Camelia's words did lift her spirits. But ... still.


"Mom, Autny, Uncle David is here!" Lucas called out and knocked on the door.


"Your husband's candidate has arrived. Come on," take Camelia.


"Good! I'll handle it!" Lina stands. His eyes became confident.


"This is the new Xioa Lina I know!"camelia said with a big smile.

"David, are you seriously going to marry Lina?" Mr. Shane asked after entering Shane's residence.


"I'm serious, Uncle," replied Mr. David. Mr. Shane nodded small.


"Honestly, I was surprised. You and Lina just met. But, I have decided to get married. Isn't it too soon, David? I know you're being urged to get married" said Mr. Shane. Nadanya's worried.


"I'm sure, Uncle!" Mr. David replied firmly.


"David, that Lina we already consider part of the Shane family. I hope you didn't make a rash decision and disappoint a lot of people, especially Lina!" Mrs Shane spoke up. Mr. David was stunned for a moment.


Lina comes to Canada, works at Glory Entertainment and lives at Shane's residence. Lina is Camellia's best friend. Thus, Lina was part of Shane's residence.


"Trust me, Uncle, Aunt" said Mr. David.


"We know you. And we hope so," said Mr. Shane, smiling faintly.


"Sister," said Camelia. "Your candidate is ready" said Camelia, staring at Lina who was walking slowly.


The deg!


Mr. David's heart pounded at Lina. The typical Asian beauty of the land of bamboo curtains emanated clearly from her. Coupled with a white dress, the level of beauty is increasing.


"Good night, Mr. David," said Lina. He brings a smile. Learn to trust yourself. Even though his heart was racing.


Lia nudged Mr. David's shoulder, to resuscitate the man from his admiration.


"Ah."


"Let's go."


"Cie something's wrong!" Lucas exclaims.


"W-what?" Lina and Mr. David looked at Lucas. "Don't react like that" Liam said.


"It's better that you leave soon" said Mrs Shane.


Mr. David regained consciousness. He nodded then stepped out. "Eh ... Why is the candidate left?"camelia.


"L-Lia, don't be," Lina's plea, hastened after Mr. David. Camelia chuckled, it was amused and pleasant to see the expressions of Lina and Mr. David.


Hopefully in line with my expectations.


"Sit, Lia!"tell Mr. Shane.


Camelia turned to Mr. Shane. Then a small nod. "Is this a good thing?"ask Mr. Shane.


"Daddy take it easy, I'm sure everything will go smoothly" Camelia said.


"Related?" Mr. Shane is still in doubt, though Mr. David has already said that he is serious about his wedding plans.


"Yesterday, when we ate at the restaurant, Mom asked how Aunty Lina felt about Uncle David. The answer is no. But, these sharp eyes of mine caught the doubt in his eyes. Therefore, we agree with Mom to match them," said Liam.


"Doubts?" Mr. Shane scrunched his forehead.


"Mom, Lina is from a different country. In addition, the background is also not as high as Kak David. That's what doubts are. I gave him understanding. I'm sure .. Kak Lina will do it in earnest" Camelia explained. Yes, although there are still doubts in it. But more on his beliefs.


"Ah .. Mom understands now. Lina's a good boy, Mrs Smith would definitely love it." Madam Shane sighed, relieved.


"Well then," said Mr. Shane.

The meeting with David's family went well. Although initially stiff, Lina had adapted well to Madam Smith's friendly and easy-to-spoke manner, despite her stern appearance.


David has a mother now. His father died when he was a teenager. Since he held the company, his mother was just watching and spending more time at home or socialite events.


Mrs Smith asked about her background. Lina explained it in detail. Then talk about everyday. Closed with the date of the wedding.


Lina was not so surprised anymore at that speed. Camelia told him.


"This is what is needed for a change in citizenship" Lina said, handing out a map to Mr. David.


"I'll take care of it soon."


"Tomorrow at lunch, come to my room to measure the wedding dress."


"Is that necessary?"ask Lina. Isn't that the contract? You can buy it right away, right? After all, without a reception, only a celebration with the closest people.


"Marriage is once in a lifetime. Don't take it lightly. It must be done in earnest."


"That's different from the contract, sir!"


"Did you forget? Call me David outside of business hours! Especially when they are both like this!"ketus David's.


"It's different from a contract. You are not consistent!"critic Lina. David smiled, more on a grin.


"The heart can change, why can't the contract? What if you fall in love with me and won't let me go? Ah ... on the contrary, what if I'm the one who fell in love with you? I tell you from now on that I won't let you go!!" David said with his face closer to Lina. The two look at each other.


Lina surprised.


The man in front of him …. Who earlier this morning offered her a marriage contract, an 18-month marriage contract with signed points and agreements, and her evening showed signs of changing the contract?


Words …. What the hell does this mean? The man in front of him gave him hope. However, give him a contract. Really, Lina did not understand the meaning.


"Come in. It's cold in here" David said.


Lina blinked. "Let's go in." David was anxious with the old Lina still silent. Twisted Lina's body and pushed her slowly.


"Come in there!"he said, shaking his hand as Lina looked back.


Lina according. With many questions in his mind. He really never understood. Is this a pull-out game or just a question game?


Just ... His words?


Her mother's firm yet warm up, not easy to fall in love with David. Even if only in terms of appearance.


The problem is in the heart. Can he accept and do it well?


In addition, Lina will also change her citizenship. Become a Canadian citizen. It was decided after consideration. Lina is getting married to David. He will be working at Glory Entertainment. Plus, Lina has no family in China anymore. So, it feels like the right decision to move citizenship.


Moving does not mean not love the land. The land of birth will never be forgotten. Even if it goes somewhere, it will never be lost.


"How was the meeting?" Upon arriving at her bedroom doorstep, Lina was startled for Camelia who was waiting there by folding both her hands across her chest.


"seems smooth. When is the wedding date?"


"I still have doubts, Lia." Instead of answering Camelia's question, Lina went back to complaining.


Camelia smiled knot. "I knew. However, there should be no regrets in it" Camelia said, patting Lina on the shoulder.


"Hey, you haven't answered my question, brother!"


"One week from now," Lina replied.


"Wow, faster than when I married Chris" Camelia said.


"How long is it?"ask Lina, curious.


"Hm .. are you sleepy, sister?"ask Camelia. Lina shakes. He was very worried about his future. The sleepiness goes all the way.


"Let's talk in my room, please" Camelia asked.


"Sleep in your room?" Camelia nodded.


"Drink, Brother." Camelia puts a soda on Lina.


They both sat on the window couch. The curtains are wide open, showing a view of the night sky of Ottawa.


"From he proposed to me until marriage counted about 1 month and 2 weeks" Camelia said after drinking.


"There must be a lot of preparation for your wedding."


"Right now, my marriage to Chris is a spectacular one. I still remember it clearly. Even the wedding vows are still recorded clearly in my memory."


"You still remember that? Whoa!"


"Being an artist must have a strong memory, sister," Camelia said. Lina laughed, nodding confirming Camelia's remark.


"But, Lia .. wedding…."


"Sheel!" Camelia put a finger on her lips. "Just be sure. Doubt there is a big mistake. Doubt is the beginning of defeat."


"Why not just talk about something else?" Camelia raised her eyebrows.


"Haha .. fine." I am tired of talking about marriage.


"You're doing a good job, aren't you, brother?"


"Yes that's how." Lina nodded. "What about you? A few days ago you were on the news and I saw it on social media, it's still a conversation, are you safe with that, Lia?" Look at his sad eyes. Worrying Camelia. The one who was worried even smiled widely.


"Maybe, I used to be dizzy with that. And even I will be urged to give a statement. However, Brother! This is not the past. I'm not the old one anymore. And things like that, it's common with that. It just feels strange if there is no gossip or hot news if you become an artist," said Camelia. He has had a long career in the entertainment world. It is like everyday food.


"Yayaya .. You are Camelia Shane!"


Both of them laughed. Back story. And even when they moved into bed, they were still exchanging stories. It's midnight.


"Hey, Lia."


"Hm."


"How are you related to Mr. Gong."


"Yes that's it. It's hard because there's a time difference. So, our conversation time wasn't so much."


"Long Distance Relationship, different continents, different time zones. Haha…." Lina laughed, laughing at Camelia. Camelia grunted miserably.


"What kind of person is he?"asked Lina, back to being curious. Because, what he saw when Andrean with Rose was Andrean cold and indifferent.


"Hm ... How is it? It's definitely not what people out there say. She is narcissistic" Camelia replied.


"Really?"


"Yes. He is very narcissistic and sometimes also pretends to be stupid. That pisses me off!"


"But you like it, brother?"


"Hm…." Camelia mutters. "If I told you he and Chris were alike, would you believe it?"


"If you feel that way, I'll believe it."
