He was sitting on the edge of the bed, with a little box in red color in his hand. He smiled, his natural cherry lips stretching wide.
Taking his phone out of his pocket, he called his assistant personal number. It started to ring two rings later he picks up. "Good afternoon Mr. Xavier what can I do for you sir?"
"Let's get straight to the point how about the reservations to Mon Amour Bénédicte?" Xavier asked.
"Yes sir, I got in contact with the owner he said to inform you that whenever you need a table just to tell the attendant your name and your table will be ready. And every things is ready for the next week." He explained.
"Well, that's all thank you."
"Also before I forget, I'm going out if you need to reach me call me to my personal phone." Xavier added.
"Ok sir, is that all?" he asked to Xavier.
"Ya, that's all." Xavier ended the line.

Xavier walking out of his house, unlocked the car, and slid into the driver's seat.
He dialed someone number, and pressed the phone against his ear.
"Anna? are you busy tonight?" he asked.
"I was going to just have a movie night with my father at home, but I'm free if you want to do something". Her softly voice makes him smile.
"Do you want to get dinner? There are some things we need to talk about."
"Alright, I'll get dressed." She murmured.
"O iya, bring your father along." He almost forget.
"Ok."
"Anna?"
"Ya?"

Xavier immediately stands up pulls out the chair for Anna, and holding his hand out to Anna's father, "how are you, Sir?" He smiled warmly.
"I'm great," Anna's father gave him a smile, he took Xavier's hand.
And then Xavier takes a seat too.
Xavier handed Anna the bouquet of flowers, "for you."
Anna took them willingly, "thank you," she smiled, plucking on one of the cherry red petals. "These look really nice."
The waitress appeared popped open the champagne to give them each a glass.
"Thank you." Xavier nodded at the waitress.
"I apologize in advance, Sir, for taking your time. Anna tells me that you have plans to watch a movie tonight, but now you be here for my dinner invitation." Xavier said awkwardly.
"That's not big deal. Never mind, I came because I want."
"Sir, Maybe it's too soon, but I can't wait." He paused, turning his eyes at Anna.
Sir, I'm a bit nervous
'Bout being here today
Still not real sure what I'm going to say
So bare with me please
If I take up too much of your time
The song played describes his current feelings.
"I'm not a perfect person, I have so many flaws. When I first met Anna, I was convinced that Anna was someone who would make me perfect,"
Xavier took a deep breath.
"I want her to be mine, I want to be the reason why she smile, I want to be the daddy of her kids,"
"I always imagined when I opened my eyes in the morning I saw Anna's face. Hug and kiss her every day. Swap stories and laugh all the time with her. And I wish it could all come true."
I'm gonna marry your daughter
And make her my wife
I want her to be the only girl that I love for the rest of my life
And give her the best of me 'till the day that I die, yeah
"Sir, I want Anna to be my wife, I want to spend the rest of my life with her." He said earnestly.
"Love my daughter as you love yourself, treat her kindly as you can, and dont break her heart. I trust you Xavier." Anna's father patting on Xavier's shoulder.
She'll be the most beautiful bride that I've ever seen
I can't wait to smile
As she walks down the isle
On the arm of her father
On the day that I marry your daughter
"Thank you, sir. I promise with all my heart."
Xavier stood up, around the table, and dropped to his knees in front of Anna. He took out a little red box from his pocket, he opened it, "Anna will you marry me?" He stared at Anna's eyes.
Tears flowed down her cheeks, she nodded.
Xavier reached Anna's hand with gently and put a ring on her finger. He stood up and held Anna very tight, "thank you, I love you Anna." He whispered.
Anna's father wiped his tears beside them.
