NYC 3 months later

“The view is beautiful from up here” she says to me as I embrace her on top of the Empire State Building. This is it. This is the moment where I put my heart on my sleeve and hope to God she takes it. She loves me. She won’t reject me. If I keep saying that maybe, just maybe, I won’t puke on myself and embarrass us both. “Do you love it enough to want to marry me and move here?” I ask her turning her in my arms and kneeling at her feet. I have a ring I blew 500,000 USD on that would look beautiful on her finger. Only her finger.

“What?” she looks confused. Did I say that in English or Korean?

“I am head over heels in love with you. I want to spend my life with you. Will you marry me?  I am opening a new branch of my company here in New York and I will live here. Will you be my wife and live in New York with me?”

“YES! OH MY GOD! I love you so much!” she screams pulling me off the ground before I could even get the ring on her finger. Dreams do come true and love at first sight does exist. Long distance relationships can work if you work at them.

The End
