p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"I feel something tickling my neck. Then I realize it's some lips, making their way to my neck, my jaw, my mouth. I replied immediately. Passionately. Because I know it's him./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"When I open my eyes I see Klaus in front of me, his eyes are open, too. I feel this hand on my cheek, soft and reassuring./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"Then I remember slowly yesterday's events, bowling, skating, Klaus discourses, his proposal, the evening./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"He seems to see my reflection because he asks me:/p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" /p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"- " Are you okay ? "/p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" /p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"My eyes then focused on his, full of uncertainty, fear, and he was scared. He must think I answered too quickly yesterday and I regret what's come after./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" /p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"- " Caroline, if things have been- " I cut him by a kiss. Gently but enough firmly to make him understand that I absolutely have no regrets./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" /p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"When we come off shortly after, I look into his eyes, for make him understand that the words that I'm going to say to him are sincere./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" /p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"- " I regret nothing Nik, absolutely nothing. This weekend was wonderful and last night was just confirmed. You can not even know how much I'm happy to be at your side this morning, and to be your wife. "/p

p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"I snuggled down next to Nik and we fall asleep quickly./p

p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"When I woke up the next morning, I realize that the bed is empty./p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"I go into the kitchen to find Klaus on the phone. It's probably for his work so I decided to not disturb him and eat my breakfast watching television. I sent several messages to friends but also to the family of Klaus and asked them to join us at the emIris Cafe/em in emBrooklyn/em. After that, I called my mother to let her know that Klaus asking me and I say yes.

p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" /p
p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"Once back in the cafe, there is nobody to share. Only the people at who I send messages. I love the atmosphere of this coffee because it's warm and friendly. With a design including plants, but also wood and brick wall./p
