I take a step forward and extend my hand, but the woman pulls me into a full-on hug. Surprisingly enough, I don’t flinch as she grabs onto my body, making me realize I only react when it’s a man who does it. She lets me go and looks into my eyes. “He’s a good one, lovely. You’re such a lucky woman.”
Without even thinking, my words slip out. “I’m starting to realize how lucky I am.”
Finn’s taken aback by my words, but I’m being honest. He’s done so much for me, and if I’m being forced into a marriage with someone, I’m glad he’s the one I’m going to be with. Before, I didn’t think I would think that, but here we are.
“Come, come! I have to show you some gorgeous rings! Now, he told me a bit about you, Olivia, so I designed five rings I think might fit what you’re looking for. They’re each a bit different, so tell me what you like or don’t like. I should also tell you I can customize anything for you.” Finn and I both follow Gianina as she walks us across her store to one of her display cases. She kneels on the ground, and sounds that can only indicate she’s putting a code into a safe fill my ears. After a loud beeping sound, she pulls out a long, rectangular display with five fingers attached. Each of them has a ring, and every one of them is different than the rest.
Modern, princess, vintage, classic, and emerald cuts are displayed before me. All of them are white-gold, and some even have smaller diamonds that go down the sides. As I get a closer look, I see the wedding bands are with the rings as well. “These are the full sets, right?”
“A woman with a keen eye, I see. Yes, I wanted to give you a complete picture of whatever you decide suits you. My hope is it will help you pick something.”
I nod and smile. “It will. Thank you so much.”
Scanning over the rings, my eye keeps going back to one more than the rest, so I point to it and Finn smiles widely.
“What? Why are you looking like that?” I question him, and Gianina’s laughter fills the room.
“He helped me design this for you,” she fills me in.
I look at Finn and immediately wrap my arms around him. He’s . . . he’s making me feel like Iamthe luckiest woman on the planet. At every turn we’re making the best of this, and he’s proving to me he can be the type of husband I need.
