Rosa’s anniversary morning started with a jolt from a troubling dream. She woke in a cold sweat, her heart racing at the thought of her husband, John, abandoning her in paradise. When she found John in the doorway with a warm smile and a cup of coffee, her anxiety dissipated. It was their 10th wedding anniversary, and John had a surprise planned: a spontaneous trip to the Dominican Republic.

Excited and moved by John’s thoughtful gesture, Rosa hurriedly packed for their trip. The flight and arrival at the tropical resort were filled with joy and the promise of reconnection. The resort was stunning, and the couple reveled in the luxury and tranquility of their surroundings.

Their days were filled with sun-soaked bliss—lounging on the beach, savoring delicious food, and dancing under the stars. One evening, as the sun set in brilliant hues, Rosa decided it was the perfect moment to share her own surprise: she was pregnant.

As they walked hand in hand along the shoreline, the ambiance was perfect for Rosa’s big reveal. But before she could speak, a woman in a white swimsuit appeared, running toward them. The woman dropped to her knees in front of John, crying out his name and professing her love.

Rosa froze, her heart racing as she struggled to understand what was happening. John looked stunned, and the woman’s dramatic proposal left her feeling sick with worry.

John’s reaction was far from what Rosa expected. He burst into laughter, his joy apparent as he embraced the woman and explained that this was Julia, an old college friend seeking revenge for a prank John had played years ago. Julia had staged the proposal as a joke, and John had been in on it.

Relief washed over Rosa, though her earlier fears lingered. John reassured her, explaining the prank and expressing his love and commitment to her. As their laughter and relief settled, Rosa remembered the gift box in her pocket.

She pulled out the box, revealing a delicate silver chain with a tiny locket in the shape of a baby shoe. “John, I’m pregnant,” she whispered, her eyes glistening with emotion.

John’s reaction was pure joy. He held Rosa close, his eyes filled with tears as he expressed his love and happiness. Julia, caught off guard by the real twist in the evening, joined in the celebration.

As the sun set over the tranquil waters, Rosa and John, now with the added joy of a new chapter ahead, found themselves even closer. The day had started with uncertainty but ended with a heartwarming affirmation of their love and the exciting news of their growing family.
