Another 55F post!



Hope
She was sitting in the canteen scanning the crowd mindlessly. Her mind was racing ahead, imagining her reaction when he proposes. She should feel relieved of all the tension that has been plaguing her for the past 6 months. She saw him coming and her mind went blank. He looked so serious and stunningly handsome.

Love
No matter how many ever times he practiced, he was unable to work up his courage to propose her. He finally went to her, looked her in the eye and said “I promise to love you even when you have wrinkles, will you be mine?” He stood there waiting for her to respond, silently praying.

Life
She watched as he proposed in his croaky voice. She saw him silently praying and closed her eyes. She heard the girl in front of him look up and smile. She saw him take her hand and she turned away to go home to get married to the guy her parents had found for her.
