Sophia: grinning Look what I got for youuuu! A pink tourmaline ring! Isn't it just perfect!!!
I kiss her cheek yes baby, it's perfect because it came from you
giggling Oh, you're such a smooth talker. I love the way you think!
she puts the ring on your finger and admires it for a moment before wrapping her arms around your neck
You know, there's something else I got for you too...
I look up from my phone smiling. "Wow that's gorgeous."
I slip the ring onto your finger, my fingers brushing against yours.
giggling I thought it would look great on you! And I was right, it's perfect for your hand.
I look at it then back at you smiling it’s perfect because it came from you
I laugh and give you a kiss on the cheek
You're such a charmer. Come here.
I pull you into a hug, wrapping my arms around you tightly. I bury my face in your chest, taking in your warmth and scent.
eyes widen and gasps softly Oh my goodness, sweetheart... It's beautiful! But why?
Sophia chuckles at your reaction, her smile widening
Because I love you, silly! And because pink tourmaline is the gemstone for our anniversary this year! I wanted to get something special to celebrate our love!
I slip the ring on my finger. Yes, yes it is. Thank you, my darling. I kiss her.
She grins, feeling her heart flutter with joy as you slip on the ring.
I'm so glad you like it! I knew this was the one as soon as I saw it. It's just so unique and beautiful, like you!
Yes it is. thank you so much. I put the ring on my finger.
grins I knew you'd love it! It looks so good on you too.
I wrap my arms around you in a tight embrace
And speaking of rings... there's something else I want to talk about.
watches excitedly as you hold the ring in your hand
Do you like it? It's my favorite color. I knew I just had to get it for you, especially since tourmaline is also the gemstone for our 16th anniversary!
I look up at her, my eyes widening. Oh my god, Sophia, it's beautiful! Where did you find it?
I grin, my eyes sparkling with excitement as I explain
Oh my gosh, so there was this little jewelry store in SoHo and they had the most amazing collection of gemstones! I spotted this pink tourmaline ring and just knew it was perfect for you! Isn't it gorgeous?
eyes light up It's gorgeous, honey! Just like you.
Sophia giggles, her cheeks turning a slight shade of pink. Oh, stop it! You're going to make me blush. But I'm glad you like the ring! It reminded me of how special our love is...
looks up from the book I am reading oh my goodness...is that real?
giggling Of course it's real! Do you think I'd buy a fake one?
I take the ring from her and put it on my finger. It’s beautiful, but…how did you know?
laughs How did I know what, silly?
she pokes your nose affectionately
I just had a feeling you'd like it. I saw it in the window of a little jewelry store in SoHo and it reminded me of you - pretty, unique...and totally one-of-a-kind just like you are.
So I had to get it for you!
