President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

The congregation got bigger and bigger. People started to dance, the square was filled with merriment.

Hayden was kind of lost. After a while, a man in a white suit finally showed up from behind the tree.

“You prepared all this?” she trotted towards him, hammered his chest with her fist, laughing joyfully. “What’s the point to make such a splash for a New Year’s Eve?”

“It’s not just a New Year’s Eve but the first New Year’s Eve I spend with you. And I hope it will be you who spend every New Year’s Eve with me in the future.”

“Of course.”Hayden raised her brow, complacent. “Who wants to spend their New Year’s Eve with you except for me?”

“You agreed. And don’t you regret it.”Joseph smiled, gripped Hayden’s hand. Then under the eyes of the crowd, he got on one knee.

For an instant, Hayden froze.

The blue box in Joseph’s hands was exquisite. With a clicking sound, he flipped it open.

Inside it was a dozen of rings different in shape, glimmering under the light. Hayden gaped, and the move she had when she divined what Joseph was trying to do was replaced by amusement.

“Are you proposing?” she asked.

Joseph raised his brow, acting like this was the common way of proposing. “Lest you would say that you don’t like the ring I picked, I have ten rings custom-made. So you will like at least one of them.”

Hayden smiled, happily. Then tears of joy shed.

“Pick one.”Joseph looked at her, affection and tenderness in his eyes.

Snuffling, Hayden averted her eyes from Joseph purposely and reached her hand out.

“Only kids make choice, adults want them all.”

“Is that so?”

Joseph smiled, and then one by one, he put the rings on Hayden’s fingers. Soon there was a ring on each finger of her right hand.
