"Hey, are you up for a job?"

"Can you... Uh, give me at least a few more details?"

"Well, It's like you're going to work for me, but not literally working. It's just so you can do something for me."

"What do you want me to do for you?"

"Marry me."

CRYSTAL

I never believed myself that I'd make it here in Denmark; I've always wanted to come to this place to get away from the life I've always wanted to leave behind.

Including my family.

I took a deep breath to somehow reduce the weight of what I was carrying on my chest.

The only thing that my family knows in New Jersey is that I am only here in Denmark for a three days vacation.

They never heard my plans of never coming back.

I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I didn't realize I'm walking right in front of City Hall.

I lifted my head to see the whole front of it, my eyes widened because of how huge and beautiful this place is. The lights are so bright, that it could possibly light up this whole town. It's like the moonlight that shines on the road.

I'll probably just sit on the bench in front of this big city hall and watch it more closely since it seems like there are no more people and it's so peaceful in here.

"Maddison..."

I was shocked when I heard a man speak; I hadn't realized there were other people around.

I searched for where the voice was coming from with my eyes and I found it right in front of the building. Have they been there before? I thought I was alone.

The guy is with someone. I think that's her girlfriend.

They were holding hands, so I immediately recognized them as a couple.

The interesting part is that it seems like this is a free live drama.

I can't help but to stare at them, and wait to see what happens next; I don't they will kiss in front of me, do they?

"Maddison..." I heard the guy called her again.

They have been in silence for so long, before the young-woman finally lifted her head and turned to look at him.

It was only there that I get a good look on her face.

She's so beautiful, her skin looks smooth and porcelain; she also has a beautiful dark doe eyes and a perfectly sharped nose. Her cheeks were also red and her rosy lips matched her white skin that shines as if when she crosses the dark part she cannot be overcome.

Her dark black short hair makes her even more beautiful.

I can't understand, why does she look bothered and unhappy?

The young-woman shifted her eyes to the left side and if I will base it on her reaction, it's seems like she just realized that we are in front of the City Hall.

Her eyebrows joint together and it was noticeable that her eyes seemed to have lost emotion at what she just saw.

What is she thinking?

The guy was about to say something when she eventually opened her mouth and talk to him.

"Liam, how have you been lately? I heard what happened to your family from dad, he said that the Spencers could fall into ground because of how huge this problem is." He was about to answer but was interrupted when the young-woman continued "What about your father? Does he say something about it?" She said quickly without looking at him, as if she didn't want the guy to start talking.

They might be dealing with a major issue right now.

Is this why they have been so quiet? I'm puzzled.

I'm not interfering but I seem to be gradually becoming interested in their story.

"Don't worry, I have already thought of a new plan. I know that this time we will win against those Villareals. And you know my father, he will do everything he can just to save and secure our legacy. Even in a way that is not so good for the others, he will.'' He said, trying to look at her in the eyes. But he failed when the woman did not remove her gaze from the floor.

I notice her forehead furrowed and her eyebrows met as if she was thinking something so deeply before she look at him again.

I thought she was gonna say something but she didn't.

"We have been together for 3 years." The guy gave her a warm smile before he continued "and you are the one who stays by my side, who supports me, you also know all my troubles... specially with my Dad. And I think if there will be a right time to say this, it's none other than tonight..." He told her directly while staring intently into her eyes.

She was obviously confused but it was as if she was waiting for him to say something.

"Maddison, I want to marry you."

My eyes widened and my hands slowly rose to my mouth as if I am the one whom the guy proposed to.

I can't believe what I'm witnessing right now. I didn't expect it to be a proposal, the free live movie I'm watching is already at it's ending.

The guy could hardly contain his happiness, and neither do I.

"Liam... will you please stop doing whatever it is you're into?" The woman exclaimed in combination of rage and sorrow in her voice.

My mouth dropped and the smiles gradually faded from what the woman just said.

"You want to marry me? really... or you can just simply say that for the nth time you will use me again in your plan like you always do." I can see the tears gathering in her eyes from here; she may have been holding it inside her for a long time.

I was taken aback by what I heard; they didn't seem to be a happy couple at first, but I thought the drama I was watching had a happy ending.

So why does it appear so dissimilar to what I was anticipating?

"Maddi that's not true. This is not related to a plan to save anything. It's just me, it's me who wants to marry you. For real." He tried to look sincere, but it didn't seem to work since the woman just shakes her head.

"You really expect me to believe that? Do you even remember when did you told me you love me?" The man seems to be dumbfounded and uncertain. "Right, you never did!" she sarcastically exclaimed.

He could not let out a word from what he heard and just looked at her.

"Okay, you know what? I'm tired. I'm sick of this. If you want to save your father then go save him. But don't use me. Ever. Again."

After she let go of those hurtful words, she left.

"Maddi..."

I even heard the man call his name again, but she was gone.

When he regained consciousness, the guy walked in sadness and despair.

Wait, why does he seem to be going in my direction?

Wait WHY!?? I'm panicking and I am literally screaming inside my head right now.

He's here, he's near me!

I was shocked when he suddenly sat next to me. Perhaps he didn't notice me sitting here, and this guy didn't realize that there is someone here who witnessed everything.

I looked at him and it was as if he wasn't on his own, he was just stunned and looked away as if deep in thought.

When I noticed that he looked dead but dilated, I made my way.

I lifted my hands to his arm, folded it and left a finger to poke him and check if he was moving and still alive, Because if he died in too much sadness and the police see us here, just the two of us, together. Then there is no one to blame than me.

"Hey..." I whispered to call him as I repeatedly poked him in the arm.

"H-Hello sir, c-can you at least m-move? I don't want to end up in prison when the police catch me, hey... Hey!" I could no longer restrain for fear so I raised my voice to him.

I think it worked because he seemed to come back to life when he noticed me.

"What do you want?" He asked me with a frown on his face and a disgusted expression on his eyes.

I understand that he's acting like this because he's hurting.

I looked for something that I could help so I dug myself and my pocket to find at least a handkerchief and give it to him, but I only found a used tissue.

I don't know if it's okay but I just handed it to him, at least I tried to help the broken hearted person. Right?

He turned and looked at me first before he shifted his gaze to what I am holding. It's my dirty and crumpled tissue.

He did not accept it and instead he looked at me again.

"Thanks, but that filthy tissue of yours won't help clean up the mess I've made."

Is he that sensitive to not accept my used tissue?

I mean— does anyone accept a filthy tissue given by a stranger though?

I was just trying to help but this guy is getting to my nerves. I know he's really annoying but I'm still trying to be kind to the star of the show I watched earlier.

I wanted to laugh at what I said but I hold it and refocused my attention on him.

"Trust me, it can't be worse than mine." I offered him the tissue again.

It was only then that he gave me another look as if a light had come out of the side of his brain and he had come up with a good idea.

"Hey, are you up for a job?"
