——————WILL YOU MARRY ME?———————
*Now**
Anna's POV...
I was fixed to that point while staring at the boldly designed letters. Oh my G.o.d this cannot be happening. It's all a dream. No... no... no...”I'm dreaming... I'm dreaming”. I tried convincing myself. I pinched my arm severally but was still there. This is real. Oh my f.u.c.king geez. Wow wow wow! James Benjamin Walker, my boss and my lover is asking to marry me? This is so–
I was interrupted when I heard someone cleared his throat. It was then I discovered he was kneeling with one knee on the ground and with him was a small red box. He slowly opened the box to reveal an emerald cut diamond ring. ”Anna you're unique, caring and literally the best and I must say I'm the luckiest to have a beautiful damsel in my life. No poems, no fancy words. I just want the world to know that I LOVE YOU my Kitten with all my heart. Annabella Mabel Chris, WILL YOU MARRY ME?”
At this point, tears were streaming down my face and my hands were covering my mouth
”Oh my G.o.d... oh my G.o.d. Y.. yes” I whispered.
”Yes?”
”Yes. I will marry you” he wiped the tears off the edge of his eyes and slipped the ring into my finger. It fits perfectly.
”IT'S A YES! YES! SHE SAID YES!” He jumped up and down before pulling me tightly into him and kissing me pa.s.sionately. ”I LOVE YOU...I LOVE YOU...I LOVE YOU..I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.”
”I LOVE YOU TOO BABE” I said flas.h.i.+ng a smile that I hadn't for once smiled in a long time.
”I love the name” he leaned in to kiss me again.
Chanting and applause surrounded the whole place and familiar faces started popping right out of nowhere all jubilating. My bestfriend Ella first came into sight with a camera on her hand followed by her boyfriend and my brother-in-law to be, Jones. Then Ms Williams and my...family? Everyone wearing a huge smile on their faces. The tears welled up and I couldn't control it. I broke down in his arms and cried 'tears of joy'. It was a stupendous moment for me and all I could feel was love and joy.
All friends and family were present and by that I mean; Ms Williams, Jones, Ella, Dr Kelly and of course my family; my little sister, Isabella, my mom and my dad. It's so good to be with all of them today. They flew all they way here from our home country. I still can't believe this. First I get to live with my boss, then we confess our undying feelings for each other, I get pregnant, I'm engaged and my family's here. What more can I ask for?
I bonded with everyone well. I missed my family alot especially my little Isa. ”Aww come here baby girl. You know your big sister missed you alot right?”
”But you don't come home?” she said with a disappointed look on her face.
”I've been so wrapped up baby but don't worry when you're done with high school, you can come spend as much time as you wish with me and guess what?” I leaned in to whisper to her ”You'll spend alot of time with your little niece or nephew.” I said rubbing my still flat tummy and smiled my most contagious smile.
”You're... Oh em gee! You're joking right?” I shook my head. She jumped up and down and gave me a big hug. She was giggling like crazy. ”I'm gonna be an aunt, yeepi!! *happy dance*”
”You're just like Ella. This was her reaction when she found out” I told her while laughing hard.
”Because we're all happy for you”
”I'm gonna teach him or her my karate skills so they'll be able to defend themselves.”
”You take karate cla.s.ses now?”
”Yeah, like few months ago but I haven't gotten a black belt yet *sad face*”
