—Emily, I'm listening to you.

I gesture an imitation of his voice without producing sounds before each word, in fact, I don't have time to speak because the screen goes black in one second and the next a large text appears on the screen. Polaroid style photos also appear.

—A moment I don't see.

I stand up in my seat and lean my arms against the windshield so I can read what is happening in the text.

No matter how much time passes , I realized that the moment you challenged me everything was over, you are a challenge, a challenge that I didn't know whether to fulfill because you left me in trouble when we started this perverse game.

I had everything in you without realizing that I was exposed to you because you have always been good at reading people, you are never wrong.

You helped me change certain things in my life because I cannot say that by the force of love I will stop being murderous, cruel and that I will not continue with the clan's business. The only thing I can assure you is that you are my weakness, my exception and that person for whom I would do things right in the relationship.

Although I am not a man of many words, I want to tell you that I love you.

I wish to love you forever.

I want to love our little one or little one.

For that I clearly want to get you pregnant the first time. :)

And for all that to come true Emily...

I wish you to marry me, principessa.

For an end together until death wants to know us.

Emily Fiore Will you marry me?

For a moment I was left processing, the blackboard was very far away and I was squinting to see both the photos we had taken together and the text. When I read the last question I turn around and feel him open the door on my side to stand next to me and invite me to come down.

—Don't fuck with me, did I read correctly? Like my eyes are a little blurry.

—Because you want to cry, I can tell.

—So, did I read correctly?

-Very good honey.

I get out of the car to be at his height, however, I have to put my arms on his shoulders to climb on my toes if necessary. From his shorts he takes out a box, thanks to the light of the projector I see the beautiful thin ring with tiny diamonds and a very large white one in the center.

— Salvatore...

—Will you marry me, Emily Fiore?

-But...

—You can reject me, in the same way you already know that I will continue looking for you until you accept me —he assures—, because you will be my first option in all aspects of my life.

I'm speechless, he was right, my eyes are full of water because I want to cry and that's why I was seeing a little blurry. I cover my mouth with my hand and then jump with excitement and yell at him.

-Yes, I want!!

-Really?

—Yes, until death wants to know us!

He lifts me off the ground, spinning me around on his feet, kisses my cheek several times until he puts me back on the ground to take my hand and slide the ring over it. When I look at him I fall more in love with him, I also think that the kilos of sugar that I just consumed make me so happy that I can't believe it.
