Jeans POV

I was so delighted everything I ever wished for was falling into place , my dream of getting married to the man I loved. Taylor, my boyfriend had just proposed and I gladly said yes without any hesitation because I truly loved him and all I wanted was to spend the rest of my life with him, start and build a family with him.

We met in college where we were both pursing the same course, business management.Taylor and I had so many things in common and  that's one thing that allured him to me and me to him.

My family and his were  into the business world and that's why our parents wanted us to study business administration to make us eligible and capable of taking over our family businesses.

I sat on my bed as I recalled our college days and I how Taylor and I would wrangle when  answering  questions , we were actually antagonists and because of him I was  emboldened to work even more harder.

At first I detested Taylor so much because I presumed  he was so egotistic, I guess that's why I never talked to him or got fascinated in anything about him.

All this changed when our lecturer appointed me and him to work on a project and that's when we got to know each other , we became friends and later it flourished into love.

3 days earlier.

We quietly walked into the park clasping on to each other's hands, Taylor had just taken me out for dinner and afterwards he told me he wanted us to take a walk into the central park. I was wearing a short off shoulder dress and I was feeling cold and I realized I was shivering when Taylor took off his coart and covered me with it.

"Thank you ", I whispered without looking directly into his face.

"Welcome ", he said as he glared at me but I did not gaze back at him. I knew Taylor was up to something but I couldn't perceive what it was.

The  park was so quite since it was late in the night and I wondered why Taylor took me there  instead of taking me home but I was so gleefull we were together.

We walked slowly and there was  an abrupt silence between us. I was a very voluble person but today I wasn't really feeling like talking nor asking any questions but Taylor was also so quite so I couldn't help but ask....

"Why are we here?, I asked". But Taylor didn't say anything.

"What's wrong with you?, you haven't really said anything to me even when we were having dinner,"I unfolded  this time turning to face him and the anticipated happened  because he was right there beside me on his knees grasping an engagement ring and  instantly popped out the big question.

"Will you Marry me Jean? ", he asked me with a big smile at the corner of his lips..

I was so startled and dumbfounded at the same time , I couldn't utter a word because I was breaking down in tears  at that moment so I nodded my head and said a big yes.

He then got up and cupped my face with his warm hands and gave me a kiss on my forehead.

"Thank you for making me the happiest man in the world",he said as he claimed my lips with his and gave a me a kiss.

He took my hand and slid an elegant diamond ring into my middle finger, it was so stunning .This was the best night ever .I wanted to get  home as soon as possible and show it off to mum and dad.

*******

"Am so happy for you Jean, " mum applauded  as she pulled me towards her and gave me a quick hug.

My parents were very elated on hearing the news and so were Taylors parents.

"We should throw a party to officially announce your engagement , it will be good for both businesses ". Dad insinuated as he took his phone and called his Personal Assistant.

I knew he was making that call to make the requisite arrangements, sometimes I thought all he cared about was the welfare and the progress of the family business.

He had put so much effort into it since his father, my grandfather handed it over to him before he passed away.

"Dad I think I should talk to Taylor first before you make any arrangements", I implied and as always he disregarded my sentiment.

"Come on Jean I ll take care of that, I ll talk to Taylor and his parents", he said as he unexpectedly took his car keys and walked out of the house. "
