The Most Romantic Gift When I opened his present, I was surprised and shocked. We hadn't been dating that long. Inside was a keychain with three keys on it. It also had my name engraged on an oval gold plaque. I didn't know what to think. I didn't know what to say. I looked at each key one at a time. "What's this one for?" - I asked. He said that it was the key to his car. "What's this second one for?" - I asked. He told me that it was the key to his house. "And what does the third key go to?" - I asked with a puzzled Look. He waited a long time, and blushed a little - and then told me that it was The KEY to his HEART. I was probably more stunned than happy, because we were so brand new to each other. I told him that it was too soon, and that I couldn't accept all these keys. He told me to hold onto them, and that when the time was right, I would have them handy and ready to use. It's been five years now. I have never used the key to his car (I have my own car). I have never used the key to his house (we live in mine) - But the third key - I use it every day. What a beautiful gift. ~Harem~ ....... |
