"Why would you want to marry me?" I asked
"I love you with all my heart. I have known you for years and i knew how unhappy you were all those years you were married to him." he said
"You love me?" I said choking up in tears
he closed the engagment ring box and hugged me.
"You dont have to say yes now. I want to be with you for a long time." he said
"I may not be ready for a new marriage" I confessed " I do want to be with you"
