"Yan? You, seriously?" Erika couldn't believe it, Bastian actually asked her to marry him. Has this been applied? Erika thought.
"Serious." Bastian took Erika's hand into his. Something Erika knew by heart, if Bastian was going to say something serious.
"But ... we're still in college together, Yan." Erika tried to think logically.
Erika's education is still financed by her parents. In contrast to Audia, who married at a young age, the one who married her was a lecturer at Audia herself, who had a steady income, and could even cover all of Audia's needs, including paying for college. Audia's husband, is a billionaire. An entrepreneur. Not just a lecturer they are.
"Why? Erika is afraid that Bastian won't be able to pay for Erika's daily needs? Or Erika's college?" Bastian's question.
"N-not like that, Yan." Erika became nervous, because Bastian's question was exactly what she was thinking.
