Point of view : Erin Lindsay
We get out of the house, few minutes later. So we start to walk up and we arrive at the Park. We sit down on a bench and I begin to talk.
- I intended to call you back. But I needed to be alone ...
- ... And I can understand. But why you left me like that? Not a word, just a letter?
- I'm sorry. That's right, I couldn't leave in this way.
He acquiesces, before speaking.
- Why Erin? What did I wrong?
- Nothing Jay ... It's just me. I wasn't feeling good. And I needed to isolate me. I mean with this case, you know ... Lolita ... and after the Bunny's come back. I was really lost. And I knew you endured... A lot.
- Because you stayed in your silence! I tried to understand but you didn't. When I tried to get closer to you, you kept away.
- I know ... And I'm really sorry. But you couldn't understand ... All these affairs ...
- Erin, I ask your hand in marriage. It means I'm ready to share your life. It means I'm ready to share all moments with you. Good, bad, sad ...
I nod, silently.
- I didn't know if I was ready for that, I confess.
- For what?
- The marriage ...
- So you should say to me instead of leaving.
- I should ... But I wanted to think it.
He turns his face towards me. I feel his gaze ...
- Did you do?
- Yeah ..., I agree with a whisper.
- If you're not ready for, I understand Erin. If ...
- I accept Jay. I want to marry you.
