CONTEST: One-Image-One story/the proposal by @manuelhooks #club75
The Proposal
The phone has been ringing continuously but each time it rings, Olivia will reluctantly tilt towards her phone and looking at the screen her facial expression quickly change from suspense to one that is void of all emotions, sigh softly as she once again looks away in to the distance.
Olivia have been expecting James and he is almost an hour late, but she soon notices a Volkswagen beetle with a hue of green and blue. It packs under the mango tree, the same spot where Mark often packed his mussel car. She's sits up to take a closer look and confirms that it is James. The phone rings again but this time she is not looking at the phone. She is becoming cheerful and quickly runs to the balcony.
"Just a minute and I will be there" she says in an enthusiastic voice. Running in to change up as James waits patiently in the car while listening to some music.
Olivia comes out, ignoring her ringing phone.
"We can go now" she says,
"I had some difficulties selecting what to put on because I still don't know where we are going".
"Telling you will ruin the surprise or won't it?" he Interjects while turning off the radio.
"Why are you turning it off", Olivia asks.
"I want to hear you all the way", he replies with a genuine smile that reveals his dimples, making Olivia resonate with an equally prity smile.
And as he was about to speak further, Olivia's phone rang again and this time Olivia is infuriated due to the interruption and tells the caller with a stain voice,
"you blow you chances, so enjoy your new love", and she drops the call.
Olivia just got out of a relationship and is now with an old friend James. And James notices that Olivia has lost her smile, he slows down and pulls off the road. At this point they are off the road in a quiet country road.
"I wish I did this while you were still smiling". pulling out a silver ring with the words, "marry me".
Olivia is overjoyed, this she had waited long before getting in to a toxic relationship with Mark. Due to the joy and excitement, Olivia lost a few drops of tears in the process and a moment latter when she finally calmed down.
James now asked. "is that a yes?"
"Yes! Yes!! It's a Yes!" She says.
And happy that he has got his answer, James is back on the road and overjoyed Olivia is short of ways to express herself. I bet she had no idea when her feets went out the window.

"Ooh! Where are my manners, please meet rolex, my dad's old car." Says James adding the words "today is one of the best days in my life".
She seem happier in the beetle compared to the mussel car.
"So where are we going now", she asked whole fiddling with the ring.
"My parents are eager to meet you"
"Do they know of me and mark", she asked.
"No they don't and that is in the past", He said.
"What took you so long, quiet boy!"
James' phone vibrates from an incoming message, which he totally ignores and will latter find a message that reads, you have been promoted to district supervisor......
