"I thought you would." He said smiling toward her. "Really? I have to say that pouty face is kind of cute though." He said to her and laughed. "I do have a question. In one of your letters you said your grandmother was trying to get you to marry a guy. Who was he? And am I invited?" He asked teasing Melinda.
"I know I know you have to practice." He said rolling his eyes playfully. "I missed you too. I think for about the first couple months I wouldn't go down to the lake. And I was mopping around. That was until I talked to Kayla Winter, and she wouldn't let me do so any more." He said. Actaully thinking back to there bamboo fight in the forest, and he started to laugh slightly.
"Maybe..." Melinda said, teasing Chris about his nose, making the gesture herself. And so she was looking up to the sky when she felt his hand touch her cheek. She sighed, looked straight to him and smiled when he mentioned those three words again, the three words she had missed the most during her one year at Marseilles. "I love you too..." She said with a whisper, taking his hand and holding it. "If it was possible...I would stay here. But Mirelda would send her troops and you and your family would be in trouble." She said, quite laughing at the fact after so many times she tried to escape.
She just laughed, quite sarcastically. "...well, his name is Daniel. We used to be at the orphanage together. My grandmother knew his family and ever since then...she's been trying to set me up dates with him. I allow it because he invites me places near Bulgaria, and he knows why I come." She told Chris, straightly looking back to him. "But no way...he's a great friend. And he likes JoAnne...at least that's the impression." She commented, swinging her feet from the height they were from the tree branch to the floor.
"Winters? Yeah...she just goes straight to the point and makes you change your mind to some things." Melinda commented about her. "...I just got to meet her a few minutes, but it's enough to find a great friend like her." She said, smiling. "And what did she say to convince you?" Melinda asked with curiousity.
