“In the basement?” I throw my face at Sunny. Gosh. I hate him sometimes. “What could you possibly want to show me…in the basement?”
The bulb above us illuminates his smile. “Just open it, Sophie.”
I push the door, and I gasp.
“It’s beautiful,” I whisper.
“Yes. Just like you.”
“Where did you get this Sunny? It must have cost a lifetime.”
“You’re worth a million lifetimes, Sophie.”
Tears anoint my cheeks.
“One more thing.” Sunny flicks off the lights. The white dress glows an azure sheen.
He kneels. “Will you marry me?” A ring sparkles in my face.
