She bent down and took one of Julia's hands in hers, offering it to Bruce. Bruce thanked her, and then everyone saw the handsome and charming Best Actor slowly kneel down in front of the wheelchair.

"When I met you, you were only 16 years old. You were innocent and lively, like a child. You stood under a tree and looked up at the kite that had landed on it. So many boys walked past you, but you chose me to help.

Julia, you fell asleep before I could ask you to marry me. Four years have passed since then."
From his own pocket, Bruce took out a ring of pure gold. He held it up, his gaze soft and unrepentant. "Julia, I love you. Here, I, Bruce Victor Gibson, solemnly propose to you, Julia Rica Lawson."
