Laws of Love Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Their Story

(in elevator)

Keith: Mave, don’t be scared. I’m here. I’m right here.
Mavis: K! You know I hate being trapped in the elevator, but I remember last time.
Keith: When?
Mavis: When you confessed to me that you loved me.
Intercom: Hello? Anyone there? Do you guys need help?
Keith: Yeah, there are two people here. We are fine.
Intercom: We will be there shortly.
Keith: Ok, thanks.
Mavis: Where were we?
Keith: Umm…
Mavis: Right. When you said you liked me, but was afraid to confess to me.
Keith: But, we are together now.
Mavis: Yes, we are!
Keith: So, how did you pick me?
Mavis: Well, Wallace saved me many times and helped me a lot. But, I found you to be the true one. You understood me. It was more of a sibling bond or good friend bond that existed between Wallace and me. But, between you and me, it was truly a love bond.

Keith pinches Mavis’ nose lightly.

Keith: Aren’t you glad you picked me?
Mavis: Why are you so full of yourself?
Keith: I know you love me the way I am.
Intercom: Are you guys still there? We are coming to get you out.
Keith: Yes, we are. Thank you.

Minutes later, Keith and Mavis walk out of the elevator, hand in hand.

Keith: Where do you want to go for dinner tonight?
Mavis: Anywhere you’re going.
Keith: Wow, when did you want to be my wife?
Mavis: What?
Keith: Only my wife will be allowed to follow where I go.
Mavis: First off, I never said I want to be your wife… yet.
Keith: But, for now, my I’ll allow my girlfriend to follow where I go.
Mavis: Ok, or else I’ll just eat by myself. No big deal.
Keith: Really?

Mavis starts to speed-walk.

Keith: Hey, where are you trying to go?
Mavis: Run away from you.
Keith: You can’t do that! I’m your boyfriend.
Mavis: So?
Keith: You know I’ll catch you and keep you by my side.
Mavis: Try. I dare you.
Keith: Meet you at the restaurant.

(at the restaurant)

Keith: I told you I would catch up to you.
Mavis: You just got lucky!
Keith: Let’s order our food first.
Mavis: Sure.

(as they are eating dessert)

Mavis: K, what do you think of the new trainees?
Keith: I’ll answer you in detail after I observe them for a few more weeks. What do you think?
Mavis: I agree with what you just said. But, they were late on their first day of work.
Keith: Just let it go, Mave! It’s their first day.
Mavis: But, the two of them do not seem quite fond of one another.
Keith: They argued quite a number of time just today.
Mavis: Yeah, I wondered what they did to one another.
Keith: I’m sure we’ll find out soon. They seem to be the just like us.
Mavis: We’ll see about that!

Half an hour later, they leave the restaurant and head home.

Keith: Mave, you want to take a walk?
Mavis: What for?
Keith: You know? Relax after a long day?
Mavis: With you?
Keith: You’re no romantic person!
Mavis: I was just about to agree with the walking, but I’m not a romantic person, so I’ll just head home.
Keith: I’ll drive you.
Mavis: It’s not like I don’t have a car!
Keith: Let me fulfill the responsibility of a boyfriend.
Mavis: I still have a car.
Keith: Just say as I do for once!
Mavis: Fine.
Keith: That’s my cute and lovable girlfriend!
Mavis: You want to take a walk?
Keith: Yes, I would love to.

Keith and Mavis walk to get the car. Mavis leans her head on Keith’s left shoulder.
