The Proposal

It started with a clue.

Dima left early in the morning for a haircut and asked me to get ready for a date. As I was finishing he sent me a text to open one of the drawers in the living room. In it was a beautifully written note on gold paper tied in ribbon, it said to go to our first date! From there I was lead into a scavenger hunt around the city to the most important places to us such as our first date, our first summer together, our first sporting event, and so much more. Ultimately, the last clue ended with me at the arboretum. It felt like a scene right out of a movie.. just as I was parking I receive a text to “look up”. Immediately I look up and my eyes lock with his in the rear view mirror. Like a gentleman, he opens my door and takes me on a short walk around the arboretum. We laughed, talked, and got lost! Just as I was getting tired, he takes my hand and drops to one knee and asked me, “Will you marry me?”
