Romantic Proposal

I have a lovely friend with a kind and gentle heart. I have only known him for about six weeks, but yesterday he gave me the best present anyone has ever given me – a flight in a big green balloon through a warm and hazy September sky.

Afterwards, one of our fellow passengers was asking me if I had enjoyed the flight, and I told her that I loved it and that it was a wonderful surprise. She asked if it was my birthday and I said no, it was just a surprise. “How romantic”, she said.
