I’m just about done putting a load in when Zack appears at the door.

“Hey, can I ask you something?” Zack asks.

“Sure, anything. What’s up?” I say, throwing in a piece of clothing then shutting the washer lid.

“Um, well. I really do love Anna, and I’m thinking of asking her to marry me.” He says, with his hand on the back of his neck. “But I don’t know when or where to ask her. Can you give me some pointers?”

“Yeah. Where were you thinking of asking her?”

“Well I was thinking when we are on vacation, at Costa Del Sol.” Zack says, looking at me.

“She’ll love that.” I say agreeing.

“You really think so?” He asks.

“Oh yeah, absolutely.” I say back.

I lean on the washer, listening to what he is saying.

“Ok. When and where?” he asks, leaning on the door frame.

“Huuuhh. When? I would say sunset hour. Where? Either at a restaurant or a nice romantic dinner that you made and is arranged on the beach or balcony. I think she’ll love that.” I say, thinking hard for what she may like. 

“Ok. I think so too. Thanks Destiny.” He says about to walk out but stops. “Oh, don’t tell her. I’m planning it as a surprise, alright?” 

“Yep. My lips are sealed.” I say, winking.

“Thank you.” He says then walks out.

I walk out and see Zack sit down beside Anna. I stand behind Cloud and put my hands on the back of the chair, Cloud then hands me my coffee. 

“Thanks.” I say smiling. 

“Well, we should get going.” Anna says. “We got stuff to do at home.” 

“Alright.” I say, and nod.
