Everyone Knows They're Engaged

The next morning, Melanda woke up amid the chirping of birds. She glanced out the window. The sun was high.

Melanda figured she must have overslept, because Mike was gone from her side. She saw a bright red rose and a post-it on Mike's pillow. She took the rose and smelled it deeply. The unique scent of the rose was refreshing. The post-it said, "Good morning, my fiancee. If you're already awake, come downstairs for breakfast. Our daughter and I are waiting for you downstairs."

Seeing the words "fiancee", Melanda blushed. She had almost forgotten about it. She raised her hand and carefully examined the engagement ring on her hand. It was her engagement ring. She couldn't believe her eyes. The secret dream she had hidden well since she was a child had been realized! She had married her first love, the love of her life, and he was the father of her beloved daughter.
