Backstory 2
"Be your husband? I don't even know you!" he exclaimed, confusion and disbelief evident on his face. "We just met by chance, and now you want to marry me?" He chuckled slightly, studying my expression.
Hope filled my heart as I gazed at him, wishing he would say yes. I wasn't entirely sure what I was thinking, but it felt like more than mere coincidence.
His smile faded as he realized I was genuinely expecting an answer.
"Are you doing this with everyone? Just randomly asking them to marry you?" he questioned.
"No, you're the first!" I replied, grinning.
"What makes you think I would say yes? I don't even know you, and honestly, I'm not sure I want to after this bizarre encounter," he said.
He looked ready to leave again, but I quickly stopped him.
"I have an offer!" I said, hoping to persuade him to stay and listen.
"I'll pay you!" I added with a playful smile.
"Are you trying to buy your way into marriage? My answer is still no," he said, looking increasingly bewildered as he turned and walked out of the coffee shop.
"I guess it was worth a try," I sighed heavily, my emotions getting the best of me.
As I opened the door to leave, my purse dropped once more.
"This annoying purse!" I huffed.
Before I could pick it up, someone grabbed it first.
"You forgot to mention the price," he said, looking up at me with a smirk.
The unknown guy again....
"I thought you didn't want me buying you into a marriage, I said sarcastically, even though I was still hoping for him to say yes.
"Well I changed my mind".
"That was quick, I chuckled."
" I guess money does poses powers" .
I said walking slowly ash he began walking with me.
"I'm not talking about money," he said and suddenly stopped in front of me.
I laooked into his eyes, curiosity piqued. "Then what are you talking about?" I asked, my heart racing a little.
"If you really want me to agree to your terms then I also want you to do something that's in for me." He said
"I want a share of your inheritance."
What? I said completely shocked.
My inheritance? Out of all things he asks for my inheritance? No this can't be a coincidence.
I stood there, stunned, processing everything that had just happened. My thoughts were racing, and I couldn't shake the feeling that this encounter was anything but ordinary.
"Why would you want a share of my inheritance?" I called after him, my voice tinged with disbelief.
He turned slightly, a mischievous glint in his eye. "Because, my dear, I see potential in you. And I want to be part of that."
I shook my head, trying to make sense of it all. "This is insane! You can't just waltz in and demand something like that!"
"Life's about taking risks," he said, shrugging casually. "And you seem like someone who's up for a little adventure."
"Adventure? Is that what you call this?" I replied, crossing my arms.
He laughed softly, "Maybe. But think about it. We could make quite the team."
"I don't even know your name", I shouted.
"Honey would be nice, he replied back, before walking away grinning.
This guy....
As he walked away, I glanced at the number he slipped into my bag. My heart was still racing, not just from the unexpected proposal but from the thrill of uncertainty.
What was I getting myself into?
