The Tragedy continued..

3:38 ; She arrived. Donning a burberry plaid scarf and wrapped in a white Aura that filled his vision. She walked in swinging her coach handbag by the strap. Not in a cute manner, but in a violent, "why the hell am I here" way.

"Baby, You Made it! I was beginning to get worried about you, I thought you might have had an accident. Is your phone dead? I tried calling it several times and it always went straight to voice mai..."

She interrupted him, " Look, we need to talk."
"Is that mine?" She asked gesturing towards the coffee that sat on the small side table.

He nodded his head, and wore a genuine smile.
As she reached for the once warm cup his eyes glowed with admiration.

He spoke in a faint tone.
"Let me share first! I brought you here so I could tell you what is burning in my mind. You must know..."

"This is cold" , she informed him after taking a pro-longed sip.

"Is it? Hehe, Just like me love for you." he responded.

"Huh?" She asked and stared with bewilderment. "So, You feel the same way?

"Yes. These four month of courting have been unbelievably fantastic.
And, well.. I love you! "
He sat a moment letting his words thoroughly resonate. After a short moment of silence he grinned and started to recite.
"My love for you is like the winter,
It is.. "

She cut him of, " Frigid and annoying?"

"What ? No of course not." He giggled and continued.
"My love for you will never seize to exist
It is enduring and cozy
Guaranteed, My love for you is
Following fall, I fell for you
Like the temperature drop from summer to winter, I fall in love with you."

She shivered as if being truly cold, but really having just fully digested his spoken words. In her despondency she found three words.
" I like summer "

" Summer is the month our relationship took its first blossom... And,"

Her mind trailed outside the coffee house. She traveled back in time recalling the time spent , wasted , with him.
She remembered the carnival and the enormous over sized panda he had won for her. The frequent surprise visits to her house and work.The size six uggs that had been a perfect fit and warmed her feet like he had never done himself.

She began to remember his insistence of celebrating their one month anniversary that fell coincidentally 3 days before her birthday. That particular week rained attention , obsession, and spoils. A fitted wrist watch started the week off. The Tiffany co. necklace complemented the watch to every shinning detail. The stunning piece boasted two modest diamonds and a silver chain. It was a gorgeous anniversary gift.
A two tier German chocolate birthday cake, that was no doubt home-made and decorated, fed her and her girlfriends for countless days.
And Andy... Andy was creme of the crop of presents. A gesture that was so over the top NASA would have commended the endeavour. Palm sized, Andy was an adorable white and brown shit-poo. The little mixture of Shiatsu and Poodle had been bestowed with a rhinestone carrying case(She hoped hadn't been custom decorated by him like the birthday cake).

Her reverie was cut short by his seemingly simple question.
"I love you unlike anyone I have ever loved.
Will you marry me?" He did it, he actually proposed.

She tried to subdue the cringing of her rose red upper lip. Both two wheels that operated her fragile mind slowed to a near dead pace. She couldn't prevent her gorgeous face from contorting into a monstrous look that resembled a Yettie.
She brushed her golden hair out from in front her face. And her eyes met it for the first time. Her Igor like facial impressions returned into her naturally beautiful gaze into the heart of the impeccable stone that he held in his right palm.

"Well I.. Maybe we shhoo.." she began to stutter.
"Yes, I will"

  1. Who still uses the word "courting"? I love it , the idea of ahopelessly romantic and naive boy in love. Such a bummer.
