Mark's P.O.V

I've done it. I have proposed to Georgia. Her face went to shock but then to sadness. Why was she sad? I stared in confusion and Georgia started crying.

"Georgia, what's wrong?"
"I'm sorry! I have ruined everything!"
"What do you mean ruined everything?"
"I don't deserve you!"
"Why do you say that?"
"Mark, I'm so sorry!"

Just like that, Georgia ran out of the house like a sobbing mess. My heart broke into millions of pieces and I thought on where I went wrong. Why did she say that she doesn't deserve me? Then Marzia walked in.

"Mark, are you alright? Where's Georgia? What happened?"
"I'm fine Marzia. I...I proposed to Georgia and then she started crying and then she ran out"
"We need to find her"

I ran out of the house and looked around. Georgia will have a good head start on me but I need to find her. Marzia and I decided to split up and she rang Felix. I got out my phone and called Dan as I walked on the streets, looking for Georgia. Dan picked up and I tried my best not to tear up.

"Hey Mark, how's it going?"
"Dan, I need your help"
"What's wrong man, you sound like you are going to cry"
"Georgia ran away"
"What?!"
"I proposed to Georgia and then she started saying that she has ruined everything and then she just ran. Dan, you gotta help me, please?!"
"I will get everyone to look for her. But nice that you proposed to her"
"Thanks, now help me find Georgia"
"I will"

I hung up the phone and I went from walking to running. I was not going to give up on her, there is no way I was going to let her down. I reached for my phone and rung up Matthias. He answered and now I crying.

"Hey bud, what's wrong?" Matthias asked
"I lost Georgia"
"What? How?!"
"I proposed to Georgia and then she ran away saying that she had ruined everything"
"Aww, you proposed to her?"
"Yeah and I'm so scared. I don't know where she could be and I just want her to be safe"
"Okay, I will help you and also get Amanda to help"
"Okay, thank you!"
"You're welcome Mark"

I hung up the phone and dialled in Olga's number. She picked up and she sounded so cheerful.

"Hey Mark, does Georgia want to come or something?"
"No, Georgia'a gone"
"What? What did you do?"
"I proposed to Georgia and just...just ran. Olga, please help me find her"
"I will go find her. When did she leave?"
"About 5-10 minutes ago"
"Okay, thanks"

Olga hung up the phone and I rang up Toby.

"Hey Mark, Jaclyn wants Georgia's help with the wedding"
"Georgia is missing"
"What?"
"I proposed to her and then she ran. Can you help me find her?"
"Of course, Jaclyn and I will go now"
"Thanks"

I kept on running, looking for Georgia. I reached a park and at that point, I had lost my breath and I had to lean up against a tree. I wiped the tears down my face and felt the ring box. Why did you run without an answer? What did you do to think that you don't deserve me?

My heart is shattered beyond repair. I need to find Georgia or at least someone find her before anything bad happens to her. I looked at the ring in the box and closed the box again. Georgia, I beg of you, please be alright and safe, okay?

Georgia's P.O.V

I have been running for some time and I still had the tear stained face on me. I wiped the remaining tears and sat on some footsteps. He proposed to me. I should be so happy and I should've said yes but now with the current situation on my head, I feel like that I have failed Mark. I'm a failure. Why did I deserve this? How will I tell him the news? I looked around and saw people going on their everyday lives, all happy and smiling.

But me, I feel the very opposite. I feel sad and scared. I probably ruined Mark's proposal too! I got out my phone and I saw that I had multiple missed calls and texts from different people asking where was I. I didn't know how to respond to that.

Then my phone rung and it was from an unknown caller. I don't usually answer calls from them but I did for some strange reason. Like I had a feeling about something.

"Hello?" I called in my scared tone
"Hello Georgia, it's nice to meet you"
"Who are you?"
"Oh that's doesn't matter. What matters is who are you?"
"I'm Georgia"
"No, as in WHO are you? What's your personality?"
"Sad, depressed, alone"
"Georgia, stop making lies to yourself. You are only hurting Mark's heart"
"How do you know that?!"
"I'm watching you right now and I have been watching you since the day you and Mark met"

I looked around panicked. The caller chuckled and then I realised he was a really old guy.

"Don't worry Georgia, just go back to Mark"
"Why should I trust you?"
"Mark proposed because he loved you. Just like when I loved my wives. I could never forget them, even when one moved on"
"You're creeping me out!"
"I'm sorry, look over to the top stair"

I looked over my shoulder and I saw an old man in white clothing smiling at me. My eyes went wide as I recognised him. He laughed and I was shocked.

"You see, when I died, I wanted to help my son find the right girl. I never left his side and protected him from any girl who would hurt him"
"But I have hurt him"
"For a better scenario to play out"
"Why me?"
"Because you have made my son so happy"

I smiled but all of a sudden...

Bang!
