The Answer

     She ascended the last step to the cliff and fronted him. His back facing her and his vision strained, perusing the acute glares that the sun pitched.

      She toed towards him, hoping she’d take him by surprise and suddenly stopped. Her eyes now fixed on a regal view that sent shivers down her on spine. A sight that no other skyscraper or balcony could yield, one that echoed ‘Paradise’ in her world. A sight that could never traverse in her wildest imaginations.

       Her ears were percipient to the squally wind, but they caught her name being taken and alerted her. She turned and glanced at his intrepid face.

      He gave her a heroic look, and knelt on his right. She was the only one he’d bow to, but this wasn’t a bow…this was something special.

        ‘Promise, I’ll never let you down’ he said and out of the thin air, brought forth a divine ring that his fingers held.

‘ Would you be my queen?’, he proposed and stared deep into her eyes, hoping to find his answer.

      An answer that his future rely on.
