May I give you this ring?

“We praise you, the heavens, for the ways you have touched our lives with loving relationships such as this, and we give thanks for the special love and friendship you have put in their hearts. Renew within us an affectionate and loving spirit.” The fourth year student takes out two rings that came with the payment. 

It was made out of cheap silver that you can find anywhere in the market.

“Will you, Lady Evelyn Alarie, say a moment of a few words to your partner?” 

Lady Evelyn nods, her periwinkle eyes never leaving Analissa’s soft blue ones. 

“Miss Blanchet.” The villainess calls out her name.

Analissa’s back straightened, “Y-Yes?”

“I thank you for giving me this opportunity. I never thought I would have my own wedding that didn't come from my parents' arrangement. I just wanted to experience it once, with someone I trust. A wedding that came from my own choice.” She reaches for a bouquet, and holds it in a tight grip. 

“And it's you.”

Analissa smiles, seeing how dedicated Lady Evelyn was into acting she couldn’t help herself but do the same. “Oh! So that's how it is!”

“I'm glad I could help you fulfill one of your dreams. I'm not deserving but thank you for choosing and trusting me with this. You are the most kind, beautiful and warmest person I have ever met.” (Analissa) reaches out her hands to cup the villainess’ face with a smile. “I hope you always remember, whatever side you take- whatever you will do- I will stay by your side and I will complete my goal.”

‘That is to keep you safe and save you from your fate.’

Lady Evelyn was standing there speechless, she couldn’t say anything because… word for word it made her heart tingle. Red, shaking, wishing that this woman was truly the one she was marrying- every bit of emotion was being felt.

Confused, happy, sad, and… the urge to kiss her right then and there in front of all these people.

“Apologies, was that a bit much?” (Analissa) asks, worried that what she said was too cheesy or embarrassing for the villainess to hear.

“I… no, that was the sweetest thing anyone has told me.” (Lady Evelyn) tucks a loose hair behind her ear and takes the ring provided by the booth to her hands, offering it to the heroine. “May I give you this ring?”

The blonde girl shakes her head, they have already crossed a line- something like symbols of ring exchange should be properly done with the person you truly love. “I can put it on myself.”

Analissa takes the ring and places it in her left hand. She wears it in the middle finger to remind herself that this is merely a wedding booth, nothing serious, and the villainess thinks the same.

She's only trusting her to fulfill one thing that must've been in her bucket list for so long.

To experience getting married with someone she trusts, even if it's only a friend at least… she experienced it.

“Ah… alright.” (Lady Evelyn) ponders, wondering if the message didn't get across. 

The villainess wears the ring on her ring finger… to signify that to her deep inside this was genuine.
