His Grand Proposal!

A lot had been asking how he proposed to me. It is one question I hope no one asks because I have no answer yet. But it’s unavoidable. Now I have the answer to that question. For today, Easter Sunday, he surprised me with a grand proposal! I never asked for it for I don’t want to have a proposal just because I wanted it. I’ve accepted the fact that I won’t have one. I’m more than happy just to have him as my future hubby that a proposal is not necessary. Yet lo and behold, he is in fact planning one for me! He conspired with my mother and brother to get me home right after mass. I’m supposed to go to the gym after mass but when my mother saw me packing my stuff, she asked me not to do so for it’s easter and she is expecting a visitor that they would not reveal to me who! To make the story short, I complied.

When we get home, I went straight to my room! I was so surprised when I saw loose rose petals scattered on my bedroom floor. Balloons with “Thank You” notes attached on each string were tied to my bed and all over my room. On my bed lay a 1 dozen red roses and a round box which is tied to a big yellow balloon. I caught him off guard for he didn’t hear us arrive. Funny thing was, I was texting him all along informing of my whereabouts and his. After I composed myself, he had me first watch the first half of a short video he made before he asked me to read all the notes in each balloon. After which, he continued to play the video. At the end of the video is written the message “Will you marry me?”. Then he had me open the box. The box was filled with chocolate kisses with tags of “Will you marry me?” and two pieces of plastic easter eggs, one red, one yellow. He then asked me what my answer is! Of course I said “YES!!! I will marry you!”. He first opened the red egg which reveals a picture of himself crying. That is what I am supposed to get if my answer is NO. He then opened the yellow egg which reveals a diamond ring! I was so happy when he slipped it to my finger. It fits perfectly fine! Surprisingly, I didn’t cry. Maybe because I was anxiously anticipating what will happen next! I ran to my mother and showed the ring to her. She said his gratitude to him for making her daughter happy and wished us both well.

To you love, thank you for this experience of once in a lifetime. It’s always been a dream of mine to experience being proposed to in a romantic way! Even without it, I’ll still marry and love you for the rest of my life!
