"Darling..." Pulling her hand away from him, Zoey stared at the simple ring that had a small diamond on top.
It looked so pretty... its value, history, and whoever crafted this small piece wouldn't matter as its beauty would make one forget those things. Or rather, in her eyes, it was the best as it came from him.
"You already said yes... yesterday." The corner of his lips curled into a gentle smile, loving her reaction as the side of her eyes formed tears.
"Zoey, I love you... and I mean it. I am not playing games with you nor do I have the time to play mind tricks with you." Slowly, Matthew Xi pulled the armrest of the swivel chair closer to him.
Placing his palms on the armrest, Matthew Xi leveled his russet eyes to her. "I am taking this relationship seriously... and only marriage is what I can think of whenever I think of our future." Deep and low, Matthew Xi uttered as he let his heart speak what his mind couldn't.
