I looked straight into his eyes and quietly said:<\/p>\n

\u2014 You know, I need to tell you something important right away.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

And without giving myself time to reconsider, I took off the scarf.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At that moment, I saw his smile disappear. His eyes wandered around the room, as if he were looking for the door to run out of the caf\u00e9. My heart sank. \u201cThat\u2019s it\u2026 again\u2026\u201d I thought.<\/p>\n

And right then, he did something I absolutely didn\u2019t expect\u00a0\"\ud83e\udee3\"\"\ud83d\ude22\"\u00a0To be continued in the first comment\u00a0\"\ud83d\udc47\"\"\ud83d\udc47\"<\/p>\n

\u2014 I\u2019m sorry\u2026 \u2014 I whispered. \u2014 You can leave. I won\u2019t be offended. This isn\u2019t the first time this has happened to me.<\/p>\n

Silence fell between us. A few seconds that felt like an eternity. He just looked at me, at my head, into my eyes. I was already prepared for him to stand up and leave. But suddenly he spoke.<\/p>\n

\u2014 You know\u2026 \u2014 he said softly but firmly. \u2014 When we first started talking, I didn\u2019t even know what you looked like. I didn\u2019t care \u2013 whether you were fat or thin, tall or short. That never mattered to me. I liked talking to you. You\u2019re smart, easy to be with, you know how to listen and keep a conversation going. And I realized that the most valuable thing is who you are inside.<\/p>\n

He smiled a little and added:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\u2014 If you don\u2019t mind\u2026 may I just sit down next to you and order us something tasty? Honestly, I\u2019m really hungry.<\/p>\n

I froze, hardly believing my ears. My heart either stopped or raced a thousand times faster. All these years I had been waiting for exactly these words, this reaction. Not pity, not fake support \u2013 but simple acceptance.<\/p>\n

I smiled \u2013 truly, for the first time \u2013 and nodded.
\u2014 Yes\u2026 of course.<\/p>\n

And at that moment I understood: for the first time in a long time, I was truly happy. And it seems that soon we will be married.<\/p>\n
