32. Proposal

Ariella Grace

"Hi Nath.. where are you? Are you coming tonight?" I asked on the phone call.

"I will, Just need something to be done.. I'll catch up later.. Do you need Darren to get you there?"

"Oh no.. that's okay, we can meet there."

"Alright.. see you.." he hang up. I thought Nathan will come and pick me up to go there, I think I need to call the cab.

"Get sleep okay? Mommy will come home lately and don't wait for mommy okay.." I kiss Anna and Alya. They stayed at home with Marie. Since Alya's condition better I just want her to get some rest for her next treatment. Nathan just fullfill his promise about treatment for Alya.

"Okay mommy." they smile and I just get in the cab and on my way to the restaurant.

Nathan White

I just get out from the florist and have a hundred red roses for her. I will make her mine tonight. I take her old phone with me and her letter.

Oh I almost forget the ring.. Oh! The ring in my suit pocket. My suit.. Ahhhh! I just remember I gave my suit to Anna... Damn it Nath! I'm running out time now. I take a big red roses with me on the backseat car while Darren take me to the restaurant. I know I was late.

I shouldn't get a phone call reference meeting before.. I smile widely and get in the restaurant. I start looking for her while I see Daniels was there too. I stop my step and looking at Ariella in her Red simple dress.. She's beautiful as ever like this flowers.

"I wanna have someone come with me on this stage.. Please Miss Ariella Grace.." Daniels said and I could see the guest standing there while the waiters stroll around and gave us the champagne. I still stand holding my red rose and champagne in my other hand.

"In this special night.. In front of my parents, my families and my friends.. I want you all be my guest for this special night. I want you also be my witness for this.." I see Daniels kneeling in front of Ariella and opened a little box. I could said there is a ring inside. I just stand still like as dumb looking at her.

"Ariella Grace... I knew you've been through many things in your life, but I want to give you happiness like you never ever imagine before.. let me be part of you life.. I wanna said that I love you... Will you marry me?" I heard people start cheering and shouting.

"Said yes! yes! yes! yes!" Ariella just stand there and looking around but she didn't looking at me. People start clapping hands and shout out.

"If you still silent than I take it as yes.." Daniel said and I could see he slid the ring on her fingers. People start cheering and cling their champagne. I could see they clap their hands and gave them greetings.

I still on my feet looking at her. I don't know how I feel right now. Everything feels fadded. Do I lose you again for twice Ella? Do destiny really don't want us to be together? Then her eyes strike mine.

I could said we just stare for a minutes stand on our feet. There is a gap between me and her. I thought I could cross it but before I reach that place, there's already someone else.. Now It's over..

I nodded and smile. I turn back and walked out from the restaurant. I closed my eyes and laid down my heavy head on the backseat.

I told Darren to take me to her house.

"Sir... we arrived." Darren told me.

"Get the plane ready tonight Darren."

"Yes sir.." I sighed and get out from car. I walk through the door and push the bell, Marie come out.

"Oh.. I thought you're in the dinner?"

"Yes.. I have.."

"Where is Ariella? You're not home with her?" she ask.

"No.. Marie.. Can I see my daughter? I'm gonna get back to LA this night.. I have a morning meeting tomorrow."

"Ohhh.. just get in their room.. they already asleep.." she said.

I'm heading upstairs, slowly open their door. I see Anna's book and paper. I take her pencil and write a letter. I folded the letter take it with me. I came closer and kiss them.

I caress Anna cheek. She shifting and open her eyes.

"Daddy..."

"Hi... I'm sorry for wake you up.. Anna.. Daddy need to go back to LA.." I hold her hand.

"Can I come with you?"

"Yes.. but Daddy will take a very late night flight today.. Daddy will come and pick both of you later.."

"When you will come back?" 

"Soon baby.."

"Don't take so long daddy.." I nodded.

"Promise. Get sleep baby.." 

"Promise.. Goodnite daddy."

"Goodnight sweetheart.."

Baby.. no matter what happen I will always be your daddy.. I will and I promise..

I closed the door slowly and heading downstairs.

"Do you want glass of water?" she offered.

I smile and shakes my head " No.. Thanks.. wait.." I get back to the car and hold a big red rose and a little box.

"Do you wanna give me a favor?" I said to Marie.

"Yes.. of course.. for what?"

I put the big roses on the table and gave her a little box and the letter.

"I need to go back to LA tonight.. please give this to her.. Thank you.." I said and turn around get in the car.

"Go" I closed my eyes.. I lost her.. for twice.. I smile stupidly to my self..

I just stay silent on my way back to LA. I could feel the broken heart strike me again.. The memory seems kick in me twice harder this time.. I hate this feeling..
