Christy and Micheal had talked about getting engaged and Christy thought it would be July 4th when Michael was supposed to fly over for the weekend. But God and the covid-19 had other plans. Christy was studying for school when her mom started pestering of her to do her nails to help her to relax. Christy was concentrating hard on her school work; she just could not understand why her mom wanted her to get her nails done so much and she ignored the advice. That same afternoon Christy's mom told her that she needs to come on a walk with her just to relax and get some fresh air to take a break from studying and as anybody knows moms walks are about an hour. So Christy kept declining but Mom was persistent enough that she finally gave in.
On the walk Chris's mom casually brought up the engagement, asking her when she thought they were going to get engaged. Christy was kind of explaining their plans when up by the head on the trail was a guy walking his dog came into view. As Christy explained this all to her mom, she made a passing comment that the dog up there looked exactly like Micheal's dog, Abe. But it was a little bit bigger than the dog in question and that's when Christy's mom got pretty quiet, gave her a smile and Christy finally connected the dots that it actually was Abe and Michael waiting for her at the end of the trail. Mom walked away to give them a little bit of privacy as Christy excitingly went over to see Micheal. They sat on a nearby bench and talked all about him being there and surprising them. Even though she didn’t want to get her hopes up that he would propose just then, she still had a slight desire that it would happen. As they were cuddling on the bench, Micheal nudged Christy off his shoulder, made her stand, got down on one knee, and proposed. She could not be more happy to say YES!
