I had chosen Raffles to be my fiance during my seventeenth birthday.

In the beginning, I had needed some time to get used to us being engaged, and even though things between us could finally go back to normal, I was not able to get used to the way other people kept looking at us.

He had liked Raffles for very long and had also prepared a ring for proposing to him. My girls had said that I had luckily saved Raffles. Otherwise, Raffles would have really become our ‘sister.’

I did not want to see Raffles becoming our sister.
