Kelly wanted to get married. The thought always made her smile and glow. She always imagined having a fairytale princess wedding ever since she was a young girl.
“Why do you want to get married?” Her boyfriend, Tom asked. “We have already been together for four years. There is no point in having a piece of paper tell us were married. We already practically are.”
Kelly just ignored her boyfriend's comments and continued to pursue her dream of one day being a bride. She began leaving bridal magazines around the house. When Tom didn’t acknowledge the magazines Kelly began leaving jewelers' magazines everywhere with specific engagement rings circled or highlighted. She was determined that Tom would get the hint. However, even with Kelly continusely leaving hints and clues around the house Tom continued to ignore them all.
One day Kelly was feeling depressed about the status of her relationship and lack of commitment from Tom. She decided to call her bestfriend Sarah to see if she wanted to go get dinner and talk. Kelly and Sarah had been friends for many years. People always mistaken them for sisters. They were both tall, thin, with blond hair and blue eyes. Sarah already had been married for two years so Kelly always ran to her with relationship problems and questions. Over a nice dinner they talked about the Tom and about the wedding.
“Just because he doesn’t want to get married doesn’t mean that he doesn’t love you,” Sarah said reassuringly. “You know he loves you right?”
Kelly just looked down realizing that she just didnt know anymore. She knew Tom cared about her. She just wasnt sure if he loved her as much as she loved him.
“Well I am sorry sweetie,” Sarah said kindly. “I know you guys have been together for so long. I don’t know. Maybe he is just scared to take that next step. Maybe he just needs a little assistance.”
Kelly quickly looked up at Sarah hoping she was going to give her some winning advice.
“Well look I brought with me these capsules that will be able to help you. All you have to do is break them open and empty them into his morning coffee. But only one capsule every morning for five days. Just make sure it is what you really want because there is no turning back once he drinks the coffee.”
For the next five days Kelly did exactly what Sarah instructed her to do. She also continued to leave around the wedding and jewelry magazines. After the first few days Kelly began to feel hopeless when she didn't notice any change in Tom. Finally, a few days after Sarah had made Tom his fifth cup of cofee is when she began to notice any change. Tom became surprisingly affectionate and even prepared a romantic dinner for the two of them. After a nice dinner he got down on one knee, pulled out a ring, and proposed to her. “I love you so much and want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?”
