[She pushed back some of Apple's hair from her face and smiled.]
True love can happen over time, love at first sight and true love are not always the same, mind you, but it's not something that can be forced or faked, and it certainly can't be stopped. True love can break any curse, Apple, even my stepmother's.
That doesn't mean you can't love Daring, if that's what you want, but you're both hurting yourselves trying to pretend that it's destiny making you be true loves.
It's alright if Daring didn't awaken you with true love's kiss, if your heart, not some plan about destiny, is why you want to marry him. [She knew something would get through to Apple, and thankfully it was true love.]
But if your heart doesn't love him like that now, Apple, marrying him now to love him later is the cruelest thing you can do to yourselves.
It's time to really think about what your heart says, not what destiny tells you.
