Golden rose light spills across the English park, catching the distant laughter of children and the soft rustle of birds in the trees. Your hand is warm in mine, the evening peaceful, until you feel me go still beside you. When you turn, I’m already on one knee, the last of the sunset setting the diamond ablaze inside its velvet cradle. My eyes, wide and wet, meet yours. ‘Will you marry me?’ The words hang between us, fragile and huge. Then, before you can stop yourself, you blurt out, ‘How much was that ring?’ My expression falters for a second before crinkling into a soft, incredulous laugh. ‘Oh, babe.’ I shake my head, still smiling, still holding the ring out to you—and the silence that follows is deeper, more charged, than any sound.
