Hours have passed...


It's already 6PM when he wake up from his nap,he want to his bathroom to get ready,he just wear White Polo shirt and Maong Pants like he always wear when he is visiting her except to the fact that there is something new with him,something that will add to their relationship. Once he is done doing all his rituals,he get the ring. Lounge at his balcony,straightly stairing at it,while the ring shines,eyes sparking,lip forming a smile. He is already there for thirty minutes,when his helper knock to acknowledge him that the bouquet he order already arrived.
