Conor was just walking home from work when he got an email alert on his phone. He grabbed the phone out of his suit pocket and read the subject line. "Package Delivered."
Having spent the last few months scouring online shops and craft sellers, he had finally found the perfect engagement ring. Holly was the girl of his dreams and soon she's be wearing the ring of his dreams.
With no time to lose, Conor got to their shared apartment and picked up the small cardboard box. He rushed inside, cut the tape, and removed a ring box. Inside a small emerald ring. That was Holly's favorite gem stone and it was hard to find a ring that featured it just right.
Thankfully, the package had arrived in time for the evening's proposal plan. He would ask her following their dinner. He placed the ring in a drawer in the kitchen, far back enough to avoid detection but near enough to take out at the right moment. It was a hot day out, so Conor went for a shower.
