Chapter 108: He is here
Nancy slipped into her favorite grey sweatshirt and black shorts, then added a pair of small silver earrings, glancing at herself in the mirror with a smile. Her fingers brushed over the triangular pendant resting against her chest, a gesture that had become her everyday habit.
Tyson had given her the most precious gift, but she was also looking forward to getting another from him tonight. When she checked the time, it was almost 5: 30 p.m.
At the bedroom door, her mother leaned against the frame, a soft smile on her lips. She didn’t need to ask why Nancy looked so excited—she could feel it, even if Nancy had only called it "just a date with Tyson."
Nancy took a deep breath and gave herself one last look in the mirror before slinging her purse over her shoulder. There were butterflies in her chest. She knew Tyson was planning something. He was an open book to her—nervous, fidgety, overthinking everything. Still, she hadn’t said a word, she did not want to ruin his moment, or the process and besides she herself had been nervous ever since Seraphina got married.
Thinking that at any time Tyson will aslo propose her and the day has finaly come, even if he wanted to be a secrete, She could tell from his eyes what he wants...maybe be more than himself.
"I’ll be fine," she whispered to herself. But as she turned to leave, she nearly jumped. "Mom!"
Mrs. Winters raised an amused eyebrow. "Just make sure you enjoy every moment, sweetheart."
Nancy blushed and nodded, then waved goodbye before stepping out.
As she walked down the street, her phone buzzed. A message from Emily "Congrats in advance"
Nancy’s heart skipped, her lips curving into a wide smile.
It seemed to her Tyson was seriously going to propose tonight. And she couldn’t wait to say yes. "You silly guy... why’d you make me wait this long?" she whispered to herself.
