"What? Afraid we won't make it in time? Don't worry, I'll make sure you have a perfect engagement ceremony! My dear fiancée!" He cupped her cheeks and gave his heartfelt promise.
She suddenly found herself unable to meet his fiery gaze. So... were they now officially engaged? She could only nod lightly and respond with a soft "Mm."
"Now, onto the next step—putting on your engagement ring. From this moment on, you're mine forever!"
He carefully pulled a red velvet box out from his pocket. Opening it, he revealed an exquisite ruby ring.
She shyly extended her right hand, and he gently took out the ruby ring, sliding it onto her middle finger. Then, he kissed the back of her hand.
"I will always treat you well!"
"And I will too!"
She whispered in reply. In just a few days, she'd ended up with rings on the middle fingers of both hands. That must be a rarity, right?
"Are you happy?"
