\"\"<\/p>\n

I jolted awake, heart racing from a nightmare where John, my husband, abandoned me in a tropical paradise. I was Rosa, and the dream had been so vivid\u2014John leaving me alone amidst turquoise waters and swaying palm trees. As the morning sun peeked through the curtains, I tried to shake off the unease.<\/p>\n

\u201cRosa? You okay?\u201d John\u2019s voice called from the hallway. He appeared at the door, concern etched on his face.<\/p>\n

I sighed with relief. \u201cYeah, just a bad dream. What time is it?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s almost 9. I made coffee,\u201d he said with a smile. \u201cOh, and happy anniversary, sweetheart.\u201d<\/p>\n

My eyes widened. I had completely forgotten\u2014it was our 10th wedding anniversary! I jumped out of bed and threw my arms around him. \u201cHappy anniversary, John! I can\u2019t believe it\u2019s been ten years already.\u201d<\/p>\n

John\u2019s eyes twinkled with excitement. \u201cI\u2019ve got a surprise for you. Close your eyes and hold out your hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

I complied, feeling something light placed in my palms. When I opened my eyes, I saw two plane tickets.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo way,\u201d I gasped, reading the destination. \u201cThe Dominican Republic? Are you serious?\u201d<\/p>\n

John grinned. \u201cPack your bags, babe. We leave in three hours.\u201d<\/p>\n

I squealed with delight, showering him with kisses. \u201cJohn, this is amazing! I can\u2019t believe you did this!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBetter hurry,\u201d he laughed. \u201cYou\u2019ve got 20 minutes to pack before we need to hit the road.\u201d<\/p>\n

As I packed, I felt a pang of guilt. John had been so busy with work lately, and we hadn\u2019t spent much quality time together. This trip was just what we needed to reconnect.<\/p>\n

The flight to the Dominican Republic was a blur of excitement. Stepping off the plane, the warm tropical air was a welcoming embrace.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh my God, John, it\u2019s beautiful!\u201d I exclaimed.<\/p>\n

John squeezed my hand. \u201cJust wait until you see where we\u2019re staying.\u201d<\/p>\n

A sleek black car whisked us to our resort. The scenery was mesmerizing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t believe you kept this a secret,\u201d I said.<\/p>\n

John smiled. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t easy with all those late nights at the office.\u201d<\/p>\n

A pang of guilt hit me. \u201cI\u2019m sorry I\u2019ve been so wrapped up in my own stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why we\u2019re here,\u201d John said. \u201cNo work, no distractions. Just us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Our room was spectacular\u2014spacious with a private balcony overlooking the ocean.<\/p>\n

John wrapped his arms around my waist. \u201cWhat do you think? Was it worth the wait?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s perfect,\u201d I said, looking up into his warm eyes. \u201cYou\u2019re perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n

We spent the next few days in bliss\u2014lounging on the beach, sipping fresh coconut water, and dancing under the stars. On our third evening, I was about to reveal my pregnancy when a woman in a white swimsuit appeared, running towards us.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohn!\u201d she cried, dropping to her knees. \u201cYou\u2019re the love of my life. Will you marry me?\u201d<\/p>\n

I froze, heart racing. John\u2019s face drained of color, then he burst out laughing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s going on?\u201d I asked, confused.<\/p>\n

John helped the woman up, still laughing. \u201cThis is Julia. We studied together. She\u2019s playing a prank.\u201d<\/p>\n

Relief washed over me. It was just a prank.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re not leaving me, right?\u201d I asked John.<\/p>\n

\u201cNever,\u201d he said, hugging me. \u201cI\u2019m so sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n

I pulled out a small gift box. \u201cI have something for you too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inside was a silver chain with a locket shaped like baby feet. John\u2019s eyes widened. \u201cYou\u2019re…we\u2019re…\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m pregnant!\u201d I said.<\/p>\n

John lifted me off the ground, spinning us around in joy. Julia took a photo before leaving.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, we\u2019re going to be parents,\u201d John said, amazed.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, Daddy! Are you happy?\u201d I asked.<\/p>\n

John\u2019s kiss was deep and passionate. \u201cI\u2019ve never been happier. I love you, Rosa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI love you too,\u201d I whispered.<\/p>\n

As we walked back to the resort, hearts full and minds dreaming of the future, I felt at peace. This trip wasn\u2019t just an anniversary celebration; it was the start of a new chapter in our lives.<\/p>\n
