"Haru? Are you still on the line?" Vince asked him worried that his friend isn't responding .
"Yes, I'm still here . By the way, is Yve already asleep?"
"Nope . But she's in the bathroom . " Vince answered him .
"Then just tell her I called . There's no need to call me back tonight . I'll call again tomorrow . "
"Is it something urgent?" Vince asked to try and get some details from his best friend .
"Nope . Good night, Vince . Bye!" Haru hurriedly ended the phone call .
'Something is really odd . Even Haru is included in whatever Yve is planning . Well maybe it has something to do with my birthday's menu . I will not pry on it further . ' Vince told himself and took note that he will tell Yve about Haru's call tomorrow morning .
On cue, Yve came out from the bathroom looking refreshed while wearing her pajamas .
"Is everything alright, Vince?" Yve asked .
"Yes . Don't worry . You should sleep early . " Vince replied .
"Hmm…" Yve said as she approached the bed and lay on her side of the bed .
"Vince, have you heard on the examination results?" Yve asked .

"Not yet . Why?"
"I'm just… . . "
"Don't worry too much . By this time, they must be sending out the letters . You will receive one soon . " Vince assured her .
"I hope it contains good news . " Yve voiced out before closing her eyes to sleep .
Vince kissed her forehead and whispered, "It will be . Now, don't worry and sleep tight . "
"Hmm…" Yve answered .
The couple retired for the night .
The following morning, Vince told Yve of Haru's phone call and in an instant, Yve texted Haru to ask for the reason .
'Why did you call last night?'
'I forgot to ask for the interior of the reception especially the serving table . ' Haru replied instantly .
'I see . I will send it to your email the moment I arrived at the office . '
After a few minutes, Haru replied and asked a question .
'Did Vince ask you for the reason why I called?'
'Nope . But I guess he's considering it might have something to do with the menu for his birthday party . '
'And you're not bothered by it?'
'Nope . As long as he still doesn't have a clue on the surprise wedding, I am fine with it . '
Vince noticed the frequent exchange of text messages at that time . He got curious and asked .
"So why did Haru call last night?"
"He made a minor change in the taste of one of the dishes . He will send me a sample during lunch time . "
"Hmm… only you?" Vince can't help but get a little jealous . His friend is his fiancé's idol after all .
"Ahmm… I requested a special dish for your birthday so yup, only me for now . You will have a taste on your birthday . "
Showing dissatisfaction on Yve's answer, he pulled her closer to his body and wrapped his arms around her before kissing her . His kiss was different than all the other kisses he gave . This one is fierce and full of strong emotions . His movements were fast and disrespectful . He forced his way inside my mouth and dictated the pace .
'What's wrong with him?'
'I don't like this kiss . '
'He is like a different person . '
'I don't know this man . '
Yve wondered as she tried to push him away . When she was unsuccessful, she bit Vince's lips and pushed him once more .
"Why did you bite me?!" Vince shouted .
"Because you are hurting me! Your kiss… . It's like you're a different person . I don't know what's gotten into you . I'm leaving!" Yve exclaimed and walked out of the room .
Vince sat on the couch and brushed his hair with his hand .
'What did you just do, Vince?'
'You just forced your kiss on her! Of course, she would get mad!'
He reflected on what he just did .
On the other hand, Yve left the hotel and silence filled her trip to the office as Chrysthe didn't dare say anything based on the aura that Yve has been emitting . As soon as she arrived at the office, the staff noticed her foul mood . Even Sylvan was left with no other choice but to ask Chrysthe . The latter revealed what he heard .
'Stupid Boss . ' Both of them thought .
Despite the foul mood, Sylvan acted as if he didn't notice anything . So he went inside her office and reported her schedule for the day . Before going out, he handed out Eybelle's suggested TV station and newspaper . Yve received the documents well but before she starts reviewing the details, she opened her computer to email the layout that Haru asked . Yve buried herself with work and the finalization of the invitation for the chosen media in an attempt to forget what Vince just did to her .
At the hotel, Edward was shocked not to see Vince in his office so he went to his personal suite and saw his cousin drinking a scotch at broad daylight . He ran towards his cousin and stole the glass from Vince's hand .
"What are you doing Edward?!"
"That should be my line! Why are you drinking scotch when you should be working?!" Edward's frustration is evident in his tone .
After stealing the glass and removing the bottle from the table, Edward sat on the couch across Vince to listen to his cousin's sentiment . Edward knows that it has something to do with Yve . But as to what the specific reason was, he couldn't help himself but get curious .
"Now, without the scotch, can you tell me what happened?" Edward asked as he tries to pull out some information from Vince .
"I did something bad . " Vince confessed .
"Something bad… . . to Yve?"
"… . . "
"You failed to control yourself?" Edward asked with a tiny smile on his face .
"A different kind of control… . But at the end, I'm a failure . "
"I'm lost . Can you please speak normal language? A statement that I can understand . " Edward desperately pleaded .
'With the wedding just around the corner, we can't afford the groom to back out!' Edward thought .
