But..how?
Elizabeth gaped at the sign board, which was shining beautifully. She again and again read the words, so as to make sure she was not mistaken. "But...How?
She covered her face with her hands, trying to grasp the feeling. Usually, when a woman is proposed, she has a hint to it or either a couple is dating. But, this was totally unexpected for Elizabeth. They had been in love so many years, but had decided not to marry, till everything settles down. Never did it cross her mind that Xio Lee would propose her, all of a sudden.
Suddenly Xio Lee appeared from behind her like a gush of air. Elizabeth turned to see and Xio Lee was already kneeling on the ground. His palm was held up, with a small red colored box, revealing a beautiful transparent rock. "Oh my God! It is true. Isn't it?"
Xio Lee smiled and looked at the lady, who was almost teary eyed. "It is true Lizie. I have loved you the first time I saw you. Ever since, my love and respect for you has only increased."
