Darya and Vivian still visit the atomic restaurant. Darya is getting closer and closer to finish the comission she received from the owners.

‘I saw the interview...’ Vivian murmured, as the two girls walked into Darya’s bedroom.

‘I’d be surprised if you didn’t.’ Darya shrugged.

‘Darya, please.’ Vivian grabbed Darya’s hands. ‘Please, let me say something. Apologize, first of all. And explain myself.’

‘I don’t need your explanation. And I don’t care about your apologies.’

‘Darya, I’m so so so so sorry. I know I messed up. I was selfish. And blind. And stupid. Well, especially stupid. I know that I should have shown more support for you and your art. You’ve worked so hard to achieve everything you’d made so far. And I admire that. But I was too focused on myself and my goals. So focused that I let my pride overshadow my feelings for you.’

‘I’m happy to hear that.’ Darya smiled lightly. ‘I must admit, I was angry at you. Very angry. But I’ve missed you those past couple of days.’

‘Me, too. I just wish it was me who went to Del Sol Valley with you and who cheered you on backstage... But it doesn’t matter anymore. What matters is that I have the most awesome, talented, intelligent and beautiful girlfriend in the world. I don’t ever want to argue with you, Darya.’

‘Me neither, Viv. We make a cool couple together. And I believe we can make a great team as well.’

‘I believe so, too. In fact, I want to be in a team with you forever. Always supporting and helping each other.’ Vivian took in a deep breath. ‘Oof, I think I’m ready...’

‘Ready for what, silly?’ Darya chuckled.

Suddenly Vivian dropped down on one knee.
