A heart bleeds as a man proposes
Forbidden
by Mario PIERRE
Charlotte's face glows as Erick, down on one knee, holds out the ring. Her 'YES' is drowned in a clamour of unbridled joy. I try to bury myself behind the rows of family and friends gathered in the park.
I fell in love with her at fourteen but realised I didn't stand a chance, seeing the radiance on their faces as they gazed at each other.
Charlotte holds her ringed hand up, looking around the room, then finds me.
"Jordan, I definitely want you as my maid of honour!"
I nod, forcing a smile while my heart bleeds to death.
