The End of a Hidden Love Story
My parents were walking toward us with red roses in hand, grinning from ear to ear.
"Just say yes!" they yelled.
A faint smile tugged at my lips as I thought, "Mom, Dad, I'll follow my heart—just this once."
I held out my hand and nodded, my cheeks burning.
"Yes, I'd give you the chance."
In an instant, a radiant smile lit up Bryson's face. Carefully taking the ring, he slid it onto my finger.
Then, he lifted my hand before brushing a kiss across the back of it and said, "Scarlett, I'll love you forever."
