While on the Beach with My Husband, a Woman Ran Up, Knelt, and Said His Name
**Anniversary Surprise**
Just as John and I enjoyed our anniversary on the beach, a woman in a swimsuit ran up, knelt before him, and said his name. My heart stopped, fearing the worst. But this wasn’t the shock I expected.
I woke up from a nightmare in which John abandoned me. Shaking off the dream, I joined John, who surprised me with plane tickets to the Dominican Republic for our anniversary. Excitedly, we packed and left for the trip.
**Arrival in Paradise**
The Dominican Republic was breathtaking. As we arrived at the luxurious beachfront resort, guilt washed over me for not appreciating John’s hard work. This trip was a much-needed reconnection.
Our days were filled with beach lounging, delicious food, and dancing under the stars. On our third evening, while watching the sunset, I planned to reveal my pregnancy to John.
**Unexpected Encounter**
During a walk on the beach, a woman ran up and knelt before John, professing her love and asking him to marry her. I was stunned, fearing my nightmare was coming true. But John laughed and explained she was Julia, a college friend playing a prank to get revenge for a past joke.
**The Real Surprise**
Relieved, I nervously asked John if he was leaving me. He assured me he wasn’t, and we laughed off the prank. I then handed him a small gift box containing a baby shoe locket, revealing my pregnancy.
John was overjoyed, and as we embraced, Julia congratulated us. The emotional rollercoaster brought us closer, and we looked forward to our future as a growing family.
