My first ring

The first ring i have ever worn was given to me by my then boyfriend.
We found ourselves stuck at KL Central and decided to just walk around to kill time.
Seeing a jewellery stall, i immediately dragged Paul along to look at earrings with me.
The earrings were a little too OTT for me, so i turned to go when i did a double take n noticed rings.
Then i contented the next 20minutes looking, trying on the rings and asking for their prices.
Then i finally decided that there were 2 rings worthy of my attention.
One was just too tight, the other was beautiful.
A simple band with a solitaire "diamond" in the middle.
I asked for the price, then i decided it was way too expensive to pay for this ring.
All this while Paul was standing beside me, looking almost as intently as i was at the rings.
He agreed that the ring was beautiful, he asked if i liked it.
I said yes, but wouldnt say anything more infront of the seller.
So we turned to leave. After a while, Paul asked me if i liked it.
I said i do but it is a hefty price to pay for such a ring.
We continued walking when i was suddenly attacked with the urge to visit the toilet on BIG business.
He sent and paid for me to use the better bathroom.
Finally when im done, I come out and he was nowhere to be found.
Just as i was about to call him, he appeared out of nowhere.
Then we took the train home.
Just before we reach home, in a deserted area, he surprised me by showing me a jewellery casing.
He asked me to open it. I did n there lay the ring we looked at in Central.

It was beautiful what he did for me.
I think it wasnt just that he gave me something.
But he took the time to look with me, to know what i like, to find a way to get the ring without my knowing and to present it to me the way he did.
Now this man is my husband and i cannot ask for anything more than that.
