Mic stood at the letter box, looking at the envelope in his hands. It was from Mac. He knew exactly what it would say without reading it.
He walked back inside and sat on the couch, slowly removing the letter. Unfolding it, a small object wrapped in tissue paper fall out and onto the floor. Unwrapping it, he discovered it was the engagement ring. He could feel tears developing. He loved her so much. Placing the ring on the coffee table he picked up the letter.
Dear Mic,
I'm so sorry but I can't marry you. I can't tell you in person and I hope you understand that it's much better this way. We're just heading in opposite directions.
You deserve and explanation but I think you already know why. I think you realised before I did.
I'm not in love with you, and your proposal forced me to realise my true feelings … for someone else. I think you know who. For that I'll be eternally greatful.
I hope you can accept my apology and that some day you'll be able to forgive me for the pain I must be causing you.
Sorry
Sarah MacKenzie.
Two guesses who the someone else is, Mic thought to himself. He just hoped that her and Harm would be happy together.
