Gucci and I have been living it up at home. My flower business has really been taking off. I have been filling a lot of orders to the point that this little apartment is not big enough for my orders any more.
I told Rodney that I was going to start looking for another apartment soon. We had our talk and decided that we would start dating again. I was just as busy as he was so we would make it work.
He was not too happy to hear that I was going to move away. He asked if Iwas serious and I told him that I was. I needed more space desperately.
Rodney and I were doing great. He invited me up to his apartment to hang out and to spend the night. I took Gucci, my dog with me too.
To my horror I was called late in the night by the police who proceeded to tell me that I had been burglarized. Thankfully I had installed an alarm system.
The crook was caught and I was asked if I wanted to press charges. Of course I did. I was too shocked and Rodney escorted me down the next day to see my damages.
Luckily he just destroyed a few plants but nothing much. I told Rodney I need to take a bath to relax and to think about this.
***********
Rodney has been great in keeping me company. I know I was not here when the burglar came in but I was still a little jumpy. Rodney came and cooked everyday this week. It almost felt like we were living together. It felt really nice.
To my shock I came to put the dishes in the sink and I found Rodney on one knee. I didn't know if he had dropped something. I then noticed the ring and half heard the proposal before saying yes!
**************
Things moved pretty rapidly after that. We decided to begin house hunting together. Gucci was so excited when she saw the big yards. We looked and finally found this little starter home. It had a garage that would work for my next adventure.
Rodney and I signed the mortgage paperwork then it hit us. We were home owners. It was a little scary but we were fine.
I decided o begin my studio in the garage. I applied for a home business license and I would soon start selling flower arrangements from home too. I was not quitting my day job just yet. After all we now had a mortgage to pay for.
My first business day was a success. I sold many arrangements. I didn't even have time to restock everything.
Before I knew it Rodney was on the floor making a list of what arrangements needed to be done. I can't deny that Rodney saved my butt on my first open day.
**************
After we were settled in we decided to have the family over for a get together. I had more family come over since I still live in Viramontes. Some of my other family managed to come on down to my get together.
My moms were all over Rodney. They had met before but I guess they were a little offended that he didn't talk to them before asking me to marry him.
the next day at breakfast Rodney brought it up. I told him to relax that it will all be alright. We were all family and soon our engagement will be a thing of the past. My family would not dwell on him not asking my parents for long.
