I couldn't help but glance back, and what I saw left me dumbfounded.
The cars following us had somehow started floating ribbons in the air, each bearing a message.
Before I could make out the words, the cars suddenly sped up, and Ernest, in response, slowed ours down.
By the time I realized what was happening, we were encircled by these vehicles, and the message on the ribbons became clear. "Licia, will you marry me?"
Those words hit me like a bolt of lightning, and I quickly turned to Ernest.
His face showed neither embarrassment nor surprise, so this had to be his doing.
"Ernest, are you proposing to me?" My heart raced.
"Yeah, I'm bringing you home, so no one else can have you," Ernest said, surprisingly straightforward.
It seemed he was well aware of Dustin's feelings for me.
In the brief silence as I processed his words, a voice chimed in, "Dude, you gonna propose or what?"
Following the voice, I saw Susie on a bicycle.
Ernest then stepped out of the car, walked to the front, and magically produced a ring, before dropping to one knee. "Licia, will you marry me? For the rest of our lives, let me hold your hand, be by your side, and move forward together."
Sitting in the car, watching Ernest and the elaborately decorated vehicles around us, a surge of emotion welled up inside me.
"Marry him!"
"Marry him!"
"Felicia, marry him!"
The crowd and Susie chanted together.
Stepping out of the car, I approached Ernest. "Would you be disappointed if I said no?"
The lively scene suddenly fell silent, and Susie looked shocked. "Felicia..."
