Everything was happening so fast. The world was spinning in Roxana’s sight. She became breathless. Just a minute ago. He was pleading for her to forgive him. Turning to leave she received a bouquet of roses and Michael was kneeling on his knees.

He was only kneeling. The billboard announcing their proposal was displayed. It had been at their backs all along. The lights around it were turned on. There the huge writing was, ‘Would you please be my wife?’.

The proposal captured the attention of many people around. They fixed their gaze on them. With a phone camera directed at them. Michael brought out the ring from his trouser. He opened the small box and brought out a diamond wristwatch. “Awwn” “wow” “this is beautiful”, Those are the comments from the people around.

She was only wondering if he had broke up with Roxana to be so bold to smooch Grace in the office.“Who is that?”Grace queried. “Relax, I don’t care who was there. I love you, honeypot, and that
