I spot her easily, all that wild, curly hair impossible to miss. She’s still on her phone. My heart attempts to make a break for it and race toward her. Swallowing hard, I stay put and soak in the gorgeous view, wondering how she’ll react when she finally sees me. If she’ll feel as lovestruck and overwhelmed as I do. Or just furious. She laughs at something, then lowers her phone and pulls up her purse. Her hand catches the light.
I squint and lean forward.
A slight glow flickers.
A flash on her left hand. A ring on her fourth finger.
A sparkling round diamond that means only one fucking thing.
