Blind Date Turned Proposal (Josie and Dexter)

When Josie woke up, it was already the afternoon. Grape wasn't in the room, and faint sounds of laughter and playful commotion could be heard from downstairs.

It had been a while since the house had been this lively.

"Mr. Lachlan, why don't you ever come to visit me? Is it really more fun back home? More fun than Sumanthova?"

Grape pouted with a puzzled look on her face.

Lachlan responded in a childlike tone, "I was just busy with work, so don't be upset, Grape. It's only fun when you are around. Without you, it's quite boring."
