Raven: Now what, Belle???

Belle: Are you serious? Rav.. Did you see him? Caleb is five times taller than him!

Raven:Oh, come on... He is not that short, ok?

Belle: Breaking news:He IS short.

Raven: Bel, this is the umpteenth guy you are rejecting. I really think you will die single!

Belle: That is much better than marrying a less better person.

Raven became silent for a few minutes.Suddenly Belle's phone started ringing.

Belle: Caleb... I know you are still cuddling with your sweet heart pillow and lying like a love struck boy. Just get the hell up and come meet me in Trio cafe.

Caleb: So still single?

Belle: He is short.

Caleb: So he rejected you because you are too tall for him?

Belle: FYI I am going to reject him, OK?

Caleb: Whatever. Be there in fifteen min.Bye

Belle: Ya.
           Rav... What happened?

Raven: Nothing.

Belle: Hey, it is not a big deal. Next week you will find another suitor for me..

Raven: Bel.. This is not a joke, ok? I really spend so much time over this. And you cannot do this every single time.

Belle: I know Rav.. But I.. I want to marry the perfect man.. Nobody so far is that one guy..

Raven: But Caleb is, right?

Belle: Rav.. He is my best friend

Raven: Yea? Every time you reject a guy, it is because of something he doesn't have and your Caleb has... Right? Every guy you compare with him.. He is your reference point... He is the best  and perfect  man for you. Then go marry  him

Belle was speechless. Her brother never gets angry that easily. And when he is, it is a sight not desirable at all..

Raven realised the change in his tone. He didn't want to fire his sister.. But..

Raven:Bel.... Think  about it. You consider Caleb as perfect, no? Think calmly. I don't think you will be happy with any other guy. And after marriage, things will change. You have to put Caleb in the background. Can you do it? I am serious. He is a good guy. If you think he is the one for you, then go for it.
Belle: Rav.. He..

Raven: Bel dear.. No don't say anything... Just think peacefully.
I will talk to you later.

With that, Raven stood up and went. Leaving Belle alone to think.

An hour later

Caleb: Hey!!!!

Belle: Hi Caleb.

Caleb: Woah!! I am almost an hour late and you welcome me with a Hi? Just  Hi.... Something serious out there. What happened?
