Valentines Day Surprises 2/3
LeAnnaâs eyes slowly drift over the dinning tableâs edge. A huge flash red, heart shaped box was almost as huge as the roses that stood next to it. The small bowl of roses, the box of chocolate - none of these had been cheap. When he had set his mind on something, Oliver was not the kind of guy who asked for the price. The box covered for a black handbag of the brand he knew LeAnna loved. The pralines were probably bought in a chocolate store who only sold handmade chocolate.Â
Her stomach did another flip.
âHappy Valentines Day love,â Oliver smiled at his girlfriend. A small meek smile crossed her lips as she looked at her gifts. It was just so him to do all this.Â
âI didnât get you anything because...â LeAnna trailed off. She bit her tongue not to say anything else. How was she even supposed to give him the news without he would misunderstand? She knew they would not be on the same page.Â
âItâs okay. You know you donât have to as long as I can do it for you,â although she was not looking, she could hear there was a smile in his voice as he spoke. She felt like she was drowning; it was hard to breathe.Â
âAnna, whatâs wrong? Youâve been acting strange since I left this morning. Donât you like it?â concern filled his usual calm voice. Damn it, she was losing it! âDonât cryâ donât cry!âÂ
âI do! Itâs just... I... I donât know to tell you...â her voice cracked, and before she could gather herself, tears started to roll down her face uncontrollably.Â
âAnna wha---â she threw her hand up, signalling him to stop talking. âTell me whatâs wrong! Look at me,â Oliverâs voice was filled with worry. What was happening right now? What did he do wrong?Â
Feeling restlessness surge through her entire being, LeAnna stood from the table and headed towards the kitchen all while she was shaking her head furiously between heavy sobs.
