Chapter 210

She was not into poetry, but she clearly understood what the note meant and she knew it was more than a simple note; every word that was written in there came from the heart. She knew how much she meant to him, she knew their chemistry, their history, what they mean to each other is something not everyone can understand, a connection, that goes beyond physical and intellectual; the words that were written were so true, there was a bond between them, one that can’t be explained, there have been there for each other, in time of happiness and distress and in the last few months they have grown closer, just as the note said a bond wove by a silk thread, one very delicate yet strong, something that bonded them together for eternity. She was a vivid reader so she was able to appreciate very much about what he meant when he quoted Shakespeare and she read the last two line of the note again.

In your eyes, I see... me.

Marry me!

A smile cracked onto her lips, she knew it was true, he could see himself in her eyes and in the last few months they had practically become a part of each other; she had been with him every step of the way and he had used it as a proposal. She would have preferred a completely different environment but under the circumstances it felt right and it was genuine and she knew it. Her eyes noticed the beautifully decorated gift box that was right next to it. She knew what was in there, there was no surprise. The box had a red silk ribbon forming a tiny bow, carefully tied in such a way it doesn’t hide the beauty of the box itself. She picked it up and untied the bow and gently opened the box. She knew it was a ring, she had expected one in there; in spite of offering a ring not being in his custom, he had got a ring for her, knowing her all his life, it was a ¼ Ct Diamond & Peridot Three Stone Ring in 18K White Gold.

A beautiful three stone ring with peridot princess cut center and round diamond on both sides left her spellbound. She picked it up and looked at it. She knew they had something that really can’t be explained, but she didn’t really know if she was ready for it. She looked at it enjoying its beauty for a few minutes and the beauty and temptation and how she felt about him all the thoughts overpowered her and she slowly slid it onto her finger and looked at it. It looked as if it was designed with her in mind.
