Chapter 17: Proposal
After they had dinner that evening Scott decided to take Khloe for a little stroll around the house just for air and to talk about their relationship and how they were moving in a firm direction.
He truly loved her with everything in her and she was the best-suited option for him to settle down with.
She was witty although she complained too much and made unnecessary claims that were what made her unique to him and he could do whatever to keep her by his side.
Although his best friend had warned him and told him of the consequences of loving her he still didn't listen because of cause the heart wants what it wants and he wanted this woman with everything she came with.
All the baggage the stress the nastiness he wanted it all.
"So how are you feeling this evening my beautiful baby girl," he asked as he held her in his arms and they found a seat to sit on in the garden hut, he still loved her even with the burns on her face but she is a model and someone who wanted things to be perfect didn't think he meant calling her beautiful or if he meant telling her she was sexy.
"Come on Scotty, I don't look beautiful right now 8 have a burnt face and I still have got to find out who amongst your workers did this and if I find out who she is or he is ill have them pay and even jailed for sometime trust me," she said with bitterness in her voice.
"But I thought we had passed that stage and you weren't angry with anyone anymore? When you get angry you look cranky and when you look cranky you get wrinkles and get older too fast do you want that?" he asked her and from the likes of being young and specky at all times she rejected the term wrinkles and getting old and decided they had to be all smiles because she didn't want her beautiful face wrinkled and frightful like most old people she saw.
Khloe hated the sight of old people because to her they brought bad energy and with their bad energy they could make her old too fast and she didn't want them by her side.
As she was talking he took her hands in his and kissed them it wasn't new at all because it was a gesture he was fond of doing when they say together or when they lay on the bed so she was used to it and she was sure he was in love with her and would do anything she wanted when she made her puppy dog eyes.
"You know I love you so much right and you know how much time we spend together only makes out love stronger and more importantly makes me know how much you want me too, are you willing to stand by me if anything bad happens to me like how the married couples stay by each other for better or for worst?" he asked looking deep into her eyes.
In her mind, she was excited to hear him utter those words but she was with him for the good times and in the bad times what the hell was he talking about saying for better or for worst she was for better?
"We would be together for better and for worst," she said the last word with distaste in her tongue she didn't like suffering and she loved the fact that they had been doing all well without dealing with this so why would he be talking of worst now?
"But you do know we would always be on the good side right and nothing such suffering will come because you are the great Scott and you won't have any problems everything you touch always blossoms" she tried to validate her feelings by yelling at him he was going to be rich forever and take care of her because she hated working and not just working she also hated hearing the word worst it wasn't found in her dictionary or vocabulary.
"Yes and amen my beautiful baby, no matter what you look gorgeous to me and your flaws don't mean a thing to me and even with your face being this bruised you still are beautiful and that's why I wild as you ask you to be my lovely wife for richer and for poorer, in health and wealth till death do us part," he said going down on one knee before removing the ring which had been in his pocket for the past one week since he was still contemplating asking her to marry him he was super nervous because his best friend Lewis white was not in support of him asking her to marry him and so he understood how tode Khloe could be but he was getting married to her and not the world and he knew he could be able to change her when she was with him he would be able to instil the virtue of being a ladylike wan and making everyone like her so he went ahead anyway.
Still on one knee waiting for her response to his question she finally agreed to tell him she was going to marry him but after he wore the engagement ring on her finger he hugged and carried her round but she told him she had a proposal to make waiting to hear what he had to say she said she wanted the proposal made public like she wanted to have invited friends and drinks and big dignitaries and classy people stating she didn't like a private engagement because it didn't make her prepared she didn't wear the proper outfit and she didn't like the scenario she wanted a new proposal and she even promised his he was going to act all surprised to the proposal and cry when he went down on one knee to propose there was nothing he could say since she had made up her mind and he accepted on the Saturday of next week so that he could invite the big people he knew.
