It wasn’t the perfect place. It wasn’t the perfect night. But I was with the perfect girl.
It was the usual Friday for her. She would be leaving for business trip so I told her I want to have dinner with her before she leaves. She had no idea what was going to happen that night.
I left early that day from work. First, I bought a Compact Bible for her. I want her to bring it with her on her travel to Europe. Then, I went to a bookstore where I bought a travel guide to Paris. She wanted one and even asked me to mark the places I want her to visit when she is there. Lucky girl. And its her lucky night.
Then I went to the jewelry store to get the ring. After several months of looking, I was able to find the perfect ring for her. I know she wouldn’t allow me to buy such things. I know her to be practical when it comes to money. But after all those years we have been together, I want to give one for her.
Next was the school supplies. I bought a paper cutter and a double sided tape. Huh? What for?
