Chapter 64
Sammy paced around in Oliver`s office, he was nervous and it was showing from his facial expression. Well he had to be
nervous, what he was about to do needed a lot of courage especially for someone like him.
“Calm down Sam, you two have been together for seven years so I am sure that this would be easy for you.” Oliver assured me.
“Are you sure? Because I am really nervous, I don’t know if I can do this.” He muttered.
“Of course, just pull up your big boy pants and do what is necessary, it would be easy peasy... just go down on one knee and
look her in the eye, then you pop the question. You see, it is easy!” Oliver smiled.
“Well it is easy for you, but not for me,” Sammy grumbled. “But I still have to do it anyway, even if I embarrass myself, as long as
I actually propose. Wait, what if she says no? what if she doesn’t want to marry me?” He asked in fear.
“First, I doubt that she would ever reject you, I mean it’s obvious that she loves you, but if she does reject you, then you take it
like a man, get up, dust your kneecap and leave. It might hurt but the pain you feel would only make you stronger,” Oliver replied
and chuckled softly.
“You are so mean and bitter, why did you have to say all that?” Sammy grumbled.
“What? Aren’t you the one who asked?” Oliver retorted.
“Never mind, I won’t let your hopelessness and expectancy for the worst to rub off on me, I will see you later.”
“Yeah, good luck... hopefully, one of us would have a wife who stays and does not run away with your kid,” Oliver chuckled.
Sammy sighed and waved his head sideways, then he grabbed his suit from the office desk and headed for the door.
“You don’t really need the Suit, maybe you should try being less formal,” Oliver advised.
Oliver chuckled. Well it was fun watching his best friend looking scared like a potato.

Sammy arrived at Rosie’s house and knocked, it was evening already. The door opened and he came to face her, his heart
started to skip the moment he set his eyes on her.
She was in a beautiful blue gown with one strap, it revealed a bit of her cleavage and one side below revealed her upper thighs.
“Hey, you are quite early, I thought you won’t be here till the next one hour, good thing I also decided to prepare early.” Rosie
said and smiled. “I will just get my bag and we will go.” She added and turned around.
“Rosie, wait!” He halted her and she paused.
She turned back and met him on a knee, with a diamond ring in his hand. Emotions flaring in his eyes already said it all. She
muffled her mouth with her palm and widened her eyes in surprise.
“Rosie, for the past seven years of my life, I have waited impatiently for this moment, I would have done it sooner but I was
scared that I might scare you away, you see right from the moment that I set my eyes on you in Oliver’s office, something in me
told me that it was you, the woman of my dreams.
I wanted to fight that thought as I remembered that relationships never worked for me, but you gave me the courage to step into
the train and I must confess that ever since that day, my whole life has been filled with happiness. The way you smile, it’s
mesmerizing, and when my lips come in contact with yours, I feel this weakness on my knees that tells me that you are mine.
And when you speak of your past and the horrible people that you have had to deal with, I feel like going into your past and
strangling the life out of them, I wish I had known you earlier and all I want is to hold you to my chest, listen to your heartbeat and
ask you not to ever worry again, that you are safe in my arms.
Even when I am away from you, the thoughts of you occupy my mind, the fear that I might lose you to someone else if I don’t act
“Cut the epistle and put the ring on my finger already, Sammy!!” Rosie yelled in enthusiasm.
“Oh,” Sammy muttered. “I thought that was necessary, in that case, Miss Rosie Granger, would you do me the favor of becoming
my wife, would you like to spend the rest of your life with me? And everyday, you would wake up by my side and let me ...”
“Yes Sammy! Yes I do!” she yelled and pushed her finger into the ring. Sammy chuckled and helped her adjust it, then he stood
up and hugged her.
Sammy thanked his stars that he had not proposed at the hotel where they were heading for dinner or he might have been
embarrassed, either way he was glad that this was all over, he proposed and she accepted.
“Thank you so much Sammy, this is the best anniversary gift ever!” she exclaimed.
“Um... the best what?” Sammy muttered in confusion.
“Anniversary gift of course! Wait, don’t tell me you forgot it is our seven years anniversary today, isn’t that why you wanted to
take me out for dinner?” she queried with a crumpled face.
Sammy changed his expression immediately and put on a nervous smile. “Of course it is, how would I forget?” he asked and
they laughed.
“Yeah, you are a terrible liar, now let’s go get some food or I might eat you Mr. Orlando,” she threatened jokingly.
“Yeah sweetheart, let us go.” Sammy smiled and held her hand.
“So when are we getting married?” Rosie asked.
“Hmm... in less than a month, that is if you are good with it.”
“Of course, I can’t wait at all, did you inform your best friend?” she asked
“Yes I did, Oliver has promised me his full support. That reminds me Rosie, I need you to do me a favor.” Sammy said.
Rosie smiled. “Let me guess, you want me to invite Aria over for the wedding?”
“Yes, could you do that for me?” Sammy requested.
“Are you kidding me, there is no way I would get married without my best friend,” Rosie replied and laughed.
Sammy nodded. “Then I guess it is a yes.”
They both walked out of the house holding hands, Sammy helped her into the car and they drove off.
