As I sat there and cried, memories flooded over me. Each one so vivid, so lifelike. It felt as if I was living it all over again.
It was a bright and sunny day. I remember because he said it had matched my personality, and my name. He had asked me to meet him in the field behind the studio. He wouldn't tell me why, even though I begged him.
When I showed up there, he commented on my dress. It was a bright yellow dress. He said it matched the day, and me.
We sat on an old blanket in the middle of the field. It was early spring, and the daisies had just started to bloom. He picked one and put it behind my ear. Then he left his hand there on my cheek, and we looked in each other's eyes.
Looking in his deep blue eyes, my heart felt like melting butter sliding down warm toast. Then he said something I will never forget. "Sonny I love you. I always have and I always will. And I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
"What are you saying?" I had asked nervously while standing up.
He stood up too. The he grabbed my hands with one of his. Then he bent down on one knee. I sucked in my breath and my eyes had filled with tears. "Chad." I had managed to cry.
He seemed to ignore me and reached into his pocket very smoothly. I could tell he had been practicing this. "Sonny Munroe…" He said flipping the lid off the little back box he had pulled out of his pocket, showing a dazzling heart shaped diamond ring. "Will you marry me?"
He was trying to be cool. But, I could tell he was nervous. Me? I was balling.
"I know we are only twenty-two but I really truly love you. And I will never hurt you."
"Yeah right." I think sarcastically as I pull my ring off and throw it at the wall.
