S3: Ep 4 - Marry Me, Sage
Rhys and Sage arrived at Jenae's house in Newcrest. She lived down the street from Hope. Jenae is one of Sage's best friends. They met back in college and have remained close since their graduation. Rhys orchestrated getting all of their friends together for this big moment.
In the backyard, Orlando was grilling burgers while his wife Jenae was in the kitchen baking a cake and cooking tofu tacos. Emmet (Sage's big brother) and Emery were also in attendance. Now, of course, Sage had no clue what was soon to occur. She figured they were meeting with old friends, like old times.
Sage: "Jenae! Emery! I miss you hoes!" she hugged her friends and took a seat at the dining room table.
Jenae: "Girl, now you know the only hoe in this house is Emmet." She said looking in his direction. The girls burst into laughter and proceeded to catch up with one another.
Emmet: "Here we go, I know you're ass ain't talking Jenae. Should I remind you of yourself before Orlando-"
Orlando: "Before what?" He asked walking into the dining room from the backyard. Emmet sucked his teeth and kept his words to himself.
Emery: "Girls, it's been way too long. Remember how much fun we used to have? Like our strip club trips?" Laughter filled the room once again as they reminisced.
Orlando: "What were you saying earlier bro?"
Emmett: "Nothing fam, it was-"
Orlando: "Nah, it was definitely something."
Rhys: "O-kay, fellas. Let's talk about something else, huh? Like, the reason we're all here. Did I say thank you yet? Thanks so much for opening your home up Orlando." Emmett left the table.
Orlando: "I'm not finished with him, but you're right. Let's focus on the true reason we're here. Congrats my man, you really ready for this? Marriage can be a-"
Jenae: "Can be what?" she asked sitting at the table. She had a knack for knowing when to peep in on her husband Orlando.
Orlando: "Paradise." He exaggerated. Rhys chuckled and smiled at Jenae. "Yeah, I want paradise too."
Emmett: "I was saying how your girl used to be a hoe back in college. You know, bouncing around from dude to dude. Hopping on whoever would let her ride."
Orlando: "Emmett if you don't shut the fuck up talking about my wife in my house. Where's your girl? Go clean up those dishes before I kick your ass and call the cops to trespass your ass off my property." He then turned his attention to Rhys. "Bro, you good? I can see the sweat dripping down your sideburns." He laughed.
Rhys: "I mean, yeah I am. Just nervous ya know? What if she says-"
Orlando: "She won't, now let's do this." He faced his friends. "Everyone, please, can Rhys have our attention?"
Rhys cleared his throat: "Sage, as you know you are the most important asset in my life. From the first day, I saw you in our Freshman year Journalism class, I was in love. Baby, you make me so happy and have made me a better man these three years of dating."
Sage: "Rhys..." She managed to let out as he got down on one knee.
Rhys: "Lizette Sage Meier, I want you as my wife. Will you marry me please?"
Sage: "Rhys, yes! I will be your wife."
Their friends clapped and cheered in excitement.
Orlando: "Yeah bro, told you everything would be Gucci.”
Sage: "This ring is beautiful Rhys. I love you fiance."
