Of course, every time they visited Valarie's home, Phoebe would subtly-or sometimes not so subtly-hint that they should get married.

Brandon had always assumed Valarie wasn't interested in marriage since she never responded to those hints. He hadn't considered proposing.

Brandon paused, then said, "There's a place with ethnic cuisine nearby. I went there once for a business meeting-it was pretty authentic. Want to give it a try?"
