Hisaki was thoroughly overjoyed! She couldn't stop staring at the ring when walking home with Heisuke later. From time to time, giggles spilled out between her lips.
Her happiness also infected Heisuke's mood. He was glad to see how content and excited his lady was with the proposal. Still, he was a bit regretful thinking that he could give her a better one.
The sun was hanging above the horizon. Streaks of amber and violet adorned the sky. Children's laughter echoed from the riverside, blending harmoniously with the howling breeze.
"Sweet pea, you're that happy?" Heisuke poked a finger onto Hisaki's soft cheek.
Hisaki's grin was wide. She spread her hand, showing the ring to Heisuke, "Of course! How could I not? My darling proposed to me!"
Her soft voice imbued with joy tickled his heart.
The stars twinkled in her eyes almost melting his heart.
Everything about her was so precious to him.
