Blind Date Turned Proposal

Her words were veiled, but Dexter and Josie understood.

Dexter glanced at the crowd and declined with a wave of his hand, “No need for that. We’ll wait like everyone else.”

The nurse nodded and moved on.

She gave him a thumbs-up, to which he simply beamed and didn’t say anything else.
