a christmas proposal 2021

As the final notes of the Christmas carol rang out, the room fell silent. In the center of the tree, there sat a small box, tied with a red ribbon. The tree's lights glimmered and sparkled, illuminating the room in a soft glow. The tree seemed to be urging you towards it, wanting you to open the box. Your heart pounded in your chest, the anticipation of what was inside the box causing your hands to tremble slightly. You took a deep breath, and walked towards the tree.
