The proposal

In a Brunei wedding, you are engage only when you have the grooms family over to seek for a proposal for you. But in the Modern Brunei wedding proposal can be anytime anywhere...and so my story continues with

20.10.2010

'A'  was nervous about our date. It was 10 days after he proposed to me to be his Girlfriend. The night before this date...he asked me... (i don't remember the exact words) whether I would marry him. I said- I will answer when the time comes. hehehe

so on the 20th of October 2010. Him coming back form work, we went to Empire hotel beach. At the end of the beach there are two seats for couples. we sat on one of them. facing the sea and infront of it was a big small island of rock. There he held my right hand and got down on one knee. He pulled out a ring. And ask me the basic words that I have never heard ever before given to me
"would you marry me?" I was surprised, heart beats faster. I couldn't say anything. "would you promise to be mine forever"
as he bend down. i looked into his eyes and said

"yes, i will marry you". when u meet someone you know loves you and you have learned to love him back...there is no reason to hold back

and so the wedding plans continue
