PROPOSAL
His raced as he waited for her
to come downstairs. This was
not going to be a normal date
they usually had, this night
was going to be a memory
that would last a life time. He touched his pocket and felt the little bulge. He had never
asked a girl the question he
wanted to ask Crystal, he felt
weird. He almost gave up the
idea of asking her yet, but he had to.

Crystal unaware of the
turmoil Easton was passing
through downstairs. Hummed
as she dressed in front of her
mirror. She loved going out with Easton, it was always fun. She finished dressing, and
then she took her small purse
and left the room.

As he watched her come
downstairs, he swallowed; he could have sworn that she heard his heartbeat. “I adore
and love this woman”, he
thought. She looked so pretty
with her hair down.

Every sound of the steps she took registered in his head. He shoved his hands into his
pocket to stop his hands from
shaking. Watching her come
down to him seemed like
eternity. Finally her feet landed on the
floor. She walked with a majestic slow poise and planted a kiss on his lips. “I’m
ready honey”. Her perfume always had a way of making him more attracted to her.

“You smell nice”. He removed
his hands from his pocket and
cradled her face then kissed
her on her forehead.

“where are we going to?” “you would see”. She noticed how tensed he was and
wondered what the problem might be.

“are you alright Easton”
“yes I am” “you look so tensed and
worried”

“I am fine Crystal”
“look Easton I have known
you for years now and I
know when something is eating you up”. He drew her closer to himself, “well you
are wrong this time because I
am fine”. He took her hands
and kissed both of them.

“Let’s have a beautiful evening”. He took her hand and walked to his car. She
wasn’t fooled by his smiles
and kisses, she knew
something was bothering
him. “I will ask him again. He thinks I would stop persisting”, she thought
secretly.

They got to an exquisite restaurant. Easton had already booked a table for them. She felt an odd kind of silence in the restaurant. They seated and she ordered the menu for
the both of them.

She watched him closely as they
waited for their food to arrive. A waiter brought a bottle of wine and two wine
glasses. She sipped from her
glass watching his every
movement. She noticed how
his fingers trembled around his glass, but stopped herself from probing further.

“why are you staring at me
like that”
“give me a reason not to stare
at you” “sincerely I am fine”
“I doubt that”, she frowned.

“I am”
“fine. Don’t just let your
mood spoil this evening for
us. When you are ready to tell me what the problem is, I am always there to listen to you” “thank you”
“you are not welcome”.

Easton laughed.

Their food was brought to them. Easton tried all he could to compose himself, making
sure he didn’t ruin his planned
evening. He watched her eat
slowly and smiled. He just
loved the sight of her. They talked on and on, she laughed most of the time. He treasured
every ounce of her. She wasn’t perfect but she was the perfect woman for him.

The time drew near for his plan to unfold. A waiter gave him a signal; he stylishly
shook his head, telling them
to wait a little longer.

Ignorantly Crystal kept
talking unaware of what was happening around her. Finally the time was right to execute his plan. He nodded to the
waiter who constantly kept
his eyes fixed on them. He got
really uneasy this time but maintained a neutral composure.

A lady walked into the
restaurant. She looked really
classy and attractive. She
seemed to have the gaze of people in the restaurant for while including Crystal.

The lady walked towards them.

Easton had his back facing the
lady, but Crystal watched her.

The lady kept her gaze on Crystal as she walked towards them. Crystal
instincts knew that this lady
was up to no good. The lady
kept coming closer; her
cologne seemed to fill the air. “she is heading straight at us,
what does she want?”, Crystal
thought. The lady got to their
table. She was visibly angry
and fuming. She glared at
Crystal for a while then dozed her vicious gaze on Easton,

Crystal throat went dry, she
wondered what next would
happen.

“Easton, I can’t believe you,
you are here with another woman, while I wait for you helplessly to pick me up”.

Crystal’s heart slammed
against her chest.

“what the hell are you talking
about?, Where do you know him from?”, Crystal voice was firm and already shaky. The
lady turned to her,

“you see this man here”, she
pointed at Easton, “he is my
boyfriend, if you think he is in love with you then you are
really mistaken and fooled”.

Crystal couldn’t believe her
eyes and ears. She couldn’t
bring herself to believe that
Easton had been lying to her the whole time. Her fingers began to tremble. She looked
at Easton who already looked
like a little child who was
caught doing something
wrong. “Easton, tell me everything
happening here is a dream and
that I would wake up soon.

Tell me that everything this
lady is saying are all lies”. He
seemed to be struggling with words, he looked really confused.

“Easton, I am talking to you”,
she raised her voice higher this
time. By this time everyone in
the restaurant paid attention to the drama. The lady stood watching them. Easton took
her hands and looked deep
into her eyes. “Forget about
this lady, I don’t know her,
don’t listen to a word that she is saying”
“oh! Really, is this what was
eating you up. When were
you planning on telling me?”.

“I don’t know her”
“what do you mean you don’t know me Easton”, the lady was so infuriated. She
took the wine bottle on the
table and drained it on his
head, “we are over”, she said
and walked away.
