Hey guys hope you like it !

I was shocked when I saw the women's faces. Mira was the person behind the mask. She was the one who abducted me. I treated her as a friend, but she tried to kill me. I passed out after seeing her. I couldn't keep that trauma under control. I was immediately sent to the hospital. I had received the necessary first assistance. I awoke to find David beside me. He had my hand in his and his head was buried in the bed. I'm guessing he was exhausted from all the episodes.

" David," I yelled his name, and he immediately awoke, his eyes were red from crying.

"Are you okay now, how are you feeling?" he inquired, clearly concerned.

" I am very sorry. It is entirely my fault. All of this would not have happened if you had been in my house. David expressed his deep regret. His hands were pressing against the side of my face.

" It's not your mistake don't blame yourself, But why would Mira try to murder me?" "I did nothing wrong to her." I inquired, perplexed.

"My mother had a severe mental health problem, which caused her to exhibit dangerous behavior towards herself and others if they interfered. Mira and I have been acquainted for a long period, as we have known each other since we were very young. Coincidentally, during that time, Mira's father was employed as a cook in my household. Mira was ten years old at the time, while I was eight. One unfortunate evening, Mira's father went to deliver supper to my mother, and she became frightened and attempted to attack him. In a desperate attempt to defend himself, he accidentally struck his head forcefully against a nearby table, resulting in his untimely demise. This tragic incident left Mira without any immediate family to care for her.

Recognizing the dire situation Mira found herself in, my father made the compassionate decision to extend our support and help her. Little did I know that Mira would harbor such deep-seated resentment and seek revenge in such a shocking manner. "

He appeared distressed. I never expected to see David in this manner. I tried to console him as much as I could.

" David, don't cry. We'll just dismiss it as a terrible dream. Please refrain from crying." I started with. He appeared pallid. I guess he hadn't slept in days.

" First, you rest." "Look how screwed up you are," I said

"I don't care how I appear. "I'm not going to leave you alone for a second." He said this while wiping his eyes and sitting beside my bed. He then instructed me to rest.

"How about Mira? "What will happen to her?"

"Don't worry, she'll never be seen again. "I've taken care of her," David stated. For some reason, I stopped asking him questions because I felt it was not the correct moment.

Slowly, everyone began to visit me, including my father, Ava David's father, and her sister.

To my astonishment, Mark came to see me. I was overjoyed to see all of them.

I was in the hospital for over two weeks before being discharged and returning home. David was with me the entire time. I treated myself as if I were a small newborn baby. Ava used to visit me every two days. She was concerned about my health. I was overjoyed. David planned to take me to an upscale restaurant after a few days. He even purchased me a lovely red dress to wear. He was dressed in a standard black suit, but he still looked magnificent. I resolved to put on my best face for David. I applied makeup and curled my hair. The dress looked stunning on me. When I went down the hall to show David, he was spellbound.

" How am I looking David," I asked him with shyness.

" you look amazing ." As I gazed at him, I couldn't help but think how stunning he looked. He slowly made his way towards me, his eyes never leaving mine. As he drew closer, I felt my heart race with anticipation. Suddenly, he leaned in and pressed his lips against mine, sending shivers down my spine. It was a moment I would never forget, and I knew that I would always cherish the memory of that kiss.

After heading towards the restaurant, we were greeted. As we entered, it became apparent that the restaurant was relatively empty, with only the two of us and the attentive staff present. Curiosity got the better of me, and I couldn't help but inquire about the lack of other patrons. I turned to David and asked, "Why are there no people in the restaurant?" To my surprise, he responded, "Well, I had made a reservation to book the entire restaurant exclusively for us, ensuring that we could enjoy some uninterrupted and quality time together." With a sense of privacy, we proceeded to place our orders, eagerly anticipating a memorable dining experience.

The food arrived promptly within a few minutes of placing our order. The waitstaff efficiently served us our meals, and we eagerly began enjoying the delicious dishes in front of us. The aroma of the food filled the air. Each bite was a burst of flavors that delighted our taste buds. The dishes were prepared with utmost care and attention to detail.

As we savored the delectable food, the ambiance of the restaurant added to the overall experience. The cozy lighting and tasteful decor created a warm and inviting atmosphere.

After some time, when I had finished enjoying my meal, my partner, David, surprised me by pulling out a beautiful ring from his pocket. With a heartfelt expression,

Harper, I understand that we have met during a difficult time in our lives, but from the moment I laid eyes on you, I felt an indescribable connection that I have never experienced before. You have shown me the true meaning of love, and I am grateful for that. I hope that we can spend the rest of our lives together as a happy and devoted married couple.

The gentleman gracefully lowered himself onto one knee and posed the question, "Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?"

As soon as he proposed, I eagerly said yes. He then took off the old ring and carefully slid the new one onto my finger with all the love in his heart.

The way he proposed to me, made the moment even more special. The joy and love in his eyes were evident, and I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with happiness. The combination of the delightful food, the romantic ambiance, and the unexpected proposal made the evening truly unforgettable.

We then went to the car, and then there was an ice cream shop nearby. I pointed towards the shop and asked David to have ice cream. We then went to the ice cream shop, it was awesome. I started to eat ice cream and some of it was in the corner of my mouth. David came closer and licked it off with a smile on his face.

" Woah, the ice cream is a ossum," I said while eating the ice cream.

"What the fuck David people are staring at us stop doing it ." He then laughed, "Well, I think you taste even better," and began eating his.

We both enjoyed the ice cream and shared a few laughs while eating it. We had many flavors to choose from, but I decided to have the classic vanilla and he chose the chocolate chip cookie dough. We were in a great mood after having our ice creams. After that, we went back to the car and drove back home with a happy memory.
