She seemed to have a glimmer of optimism in her eyes. "Was she caught off guard?" "She was feeling a variety of emotions, one of which was likely surprise, but there were likely others as well. Because I had waited too long and was starting to feel anxious, I did the only thing I could think of to do. I handed it over to her just two minutes before boarding the plane I was traveling on." It appears that she finds me revolting. "Oh, Victor Damion!. Why did you choose to do things in such a manner? That's not very romantic, is it?" "I was waiting for the right opportunity, but it never presented itself. I simply desired for it to be unique and something that she would keep in her memory. However, I eventually ran out of time." I make an effort to justify my behavior, but it is to no avail
