The day started late afternoon.
"We're home." Emma enters the house with Ezra and Wayne.
"It's so tired." Emma was immediately slumped in front of the door. Aldrich approaches her, and pulls Emma's hands together to drag her down like the last few days. "Al, I met up three times today. Just imagine, THREE TIMES!!! If I could split myself up, it would be delicious. Can I inject amoeba into my body? And get that power?"
Aldrich feels sorry for Emma, but he recalls Matt's plan which requires him to take Emma out. "Sister, let's eat outside."
"Hm?" Emma looked at Aldrich puzzledly, as she was not usually asking him to eat outside. "I mean eat outside? In front of the pool? In park?"
"In the restaurant."
Emma nodded. Rarely did Aldrich say what he wanted. So as a good mom, she will give it up. "Can. Wait for me to get ready. The restaurant is up to me, right? It just so happens that there's a new fried chicken menu."
"I-I want to eat at another restaurant. Like steak or something."
Aldrich cursed himself who suddenly spoke in a stammer. Somehow if the problem is trivial he can not lie well.
Emma was suspicious and looked at Aldrich who tried not to make eye contact with her. "alright. I'll try to bring the others. Who knows if someone will come."
"Wait!" Aldrich immediately arrested Emma. "So I've invited them, but no one wants to come along. Then Matt said his friend had a good steakhouse. So let's go all three."
Though very suspicious, Emma tries to believe it. "All right, let's go."
Emma headed to her room to prepare. Matt who had been hiding to see the situation finally appeared. "Good, Al. I'll give you the code when it's ready. Then pretend to go to the toilet, and get the flowers I left to the waiter. When I gave you the second code, it popped up."
"What code?"
"Geez! Do I have to explain it too?"
"I need the details."

Aldrich, Emma, and Matt finally arrive at a restaurant that sells steaks. They still haven't ordered because Emma is confused about the type of meat the restaurant offers.
"What is Tenderloin or Sirloin?" Emma asked while looking at Matt and Aldrich alternately.
"I'm..." Aldrich scratched his head in confusion. He knows nothing of the world of flesh. The food recipe book that he often read used to write only beef or chicken. What is Tenderloin? Sirloin? "Tenderloin alone, brother." Finally he answered with origin.
"OKAY. What about you, Matt?" Emma asked the man who was cool with his cell phone. Maybe even Emma's question wasn't heard. "Matt Hamilton! I'm talking to you!"
"Huh? Oh whatever." Matt replied nonchalantly then looked back at his phone.
Lah? lah's? Lah? What about Matt? He said he wanted to express his feelings until he dragged me all along, but why was Emma's sister even diced? Even though I swear it still won't change its lame side.
"Ck! I'm keeping this!" Emma grabs Matt's phone and puts it in the small bag he's carrying.
"Hey give it back! I'm discussing something important." Matt tries to grab Emma's bag, but she has already kept him out of Matt's reach.
"Discover after you finish eating."
"But-"
Duk!
"Ouch!" Matt rubbed his leg which Aldrich kicked from under the table.
[I was discussing with my friend for Emma's surprise.] Matt talks to Aldrich through mouth movements.
[I should have done that!] Aldrich immediately threw away his face so as not to see Matt's answer.
Not long after, their orders finally arrived. Their orders take precedence over other customers. Maybe because the owner is Matt's friend.
Aldrich looked at the steak on his plate in surprise. "My brother's not mature yet!"
"It's like that Al. His name is Medium Rare. No like? I can order it again with Well Done maturity."
Aldrich. Although foreign and looks strange, but somehow he was very tempted just by smelling the aroma.
All right, time to try the rich man's food.
Aldrich is ready with his fork and knife. He was very curious about the taste. But not yet touching that tantalizing flesh, Matt suddenly coughed strangely.
Uhuk! Ahem! Ahem! Uhuk!
At least let me taste it a little! It sucks!
Clot!
Emma was shocked to see Aldrich throwing a fork and knife at the plate with a slash. "Why Al?"
"Ah that... My stomach is not good. I'll go to the toilet for a second, brother." Aldrich immediately ran away while cursing Matt in the heart.
"Al why?" Emma asked while looking at Aldrich's departure.
"Either... Maybe you really can't stand going to the toilet." Matt looked around to find the right momentum. He's actually very nervous right now. But given the struggles of the people who helped him now, he had to try his best.
"Anu... Emma-"
"Don't Al be nauseous to see that his flesh is still red? Should we change the food?" Emma interrupted with a worried expression.
"I guess not. He likes her." Matt answered, who had seen Aldrich about to eat the steak.
Matt was nervous. What if Emma suddenly interrupted him again? All the courage he had gathered would be lost.
"Lookin' Emma-"
"Looks like we should buy some stomach pain medicine for Al! What if it gets worse?"
Patience. Matt stroked his chest with his eyes closed.
"You why? Mules?"
Matt shakes. "I want to talk to you about something serious."
"Let me guess. You must be worried about Al too and want to take him to the hospital right? No need. Al doesn't like to be treated too much. Just buy him some medicine."
Matt smiled and rubbed Emma's head slowly. "You love Al very much."
Emma's face suddenly flushed. He answered without looking at Matt. "of course! He's my son."
"Can you love me too?"
The deg!
Emma was shocked to hear the words coming out of Matt's mouth. He's very confused now. "What do you mean?"
"Look over there." Matt pointed towards the sky which could be seen clearly through the glass window beside them. Emma obeyed.
It turned out that in the sky flew hundreds of drones that lit up. The drone formed a giant writing formation in the sky, Will you marry me?
"That-that's..." Emma stood up from her chair and looked for a position to see the sky more clearly.
"Answers-"
"That's great! Is there anyone in this restaurant who's proposing to her boyfriend? Romantically. So pingin."
Matt patted his head in frustration. How could Emma not understand?
"I told people to fly it."
Emma surprised. "really?! You're... Are you proposing to someone?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Why didn't you tell me? Who is that girl? I want to meet! Just be careful if the guy's like Sylvia again."
Matt smiled as he reached into his pants pocket. "I'll meet you with him." The thing he took was a mirror.
"What's that?"
"Look! He's the one I'm applying to now." Matt pointed the mirror in front of Emma's face.
"I-i?" Emma asked with a trembling voice. He's in shock right now. Did Matt actually propose to her? What's he supposed to do?
"Yes. I love you, Emma."
Emma was shocked to death. Both of his hands covered his wide open mouth. His brain doesn't work. He was surprised, confused, pleased.
Matt likes me? She's she? Then what about me? Do I like it too? L'm...
"Emmas. Would you-"
"Sister, he said the flowers had to pay first." Aldrich suddenly appears between Emma and Matt with his hands looking up for money.
"DON'T DISTURB ME!" Matt emotion. From then on he continued to be disturbed.
"Well? Not yet? Long time. That's the guy who sent the flowers for money." Aldrich was still there with his hands up.
"Just find my friend, his name is Juan. This is one of his restaurants, so that guy must be here. Tell him to pay first."
"I'm told to owe you?" Aldrich folded his hands with an annoyed expression.
"I don't bring cash."
"Papa's candidates suck. Sister Emma, just turn her down. Not reliable at all. Find me a rich papa."
Matt pulls both Aldrich's cheeks. "What did you say? Your pocket money will be cut."
"Absolutely asking you for pocket money? Weeek!" Aldrich manages to break away from Matt, then taunts the man in the distance. "I'll call you uncle, not papa. Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!"
"AHAHAHA"
Aldrich and Matt were both confused to see Emma suddenly laughing out loud. What's so funny?
"You're like a father and son fighting." Emma rubbed her tears after laughing.
"really? I think we're like eternal enemies." Matt said as he pointed at Aldrich.
"Come here." Emma pulled Aldrich and grabbed him. He did the same thing to Matt. "From now on, we'll be a real family. Always together and inseparable. Helping each other, regardless of our previous status. Agreed?"
Matt's surprised. "Wait first! Means..."
Emma nodded. "Let's get married."
