Keeping the secret

It just so happened that the next day after he asked me the question that we went camping with some of our closest friends. I did my best not to slip up. We all spent the day boating, swimming, fishing and enjoying fun fellowship.


He and I were in charge of supper that night so while everyone else was taking showers and cleaning up, we found ourselves a few minutes alone in the camper. “Let’s pray.” he suggested. I was more than happy to oblige. After the prayer we worked together to prepare supper. He amazed me at how helpful he was.
In the morning I woke up in the tent with the muted glare of the sunrise. I snuggled deeper into my sleeping bag and listened to the birds chirping. Then I heard a beautiful sound. I heard his voice. He and another friend had slept in the boat a few yards from the tent and they were quietly talking amongst themselves. A huge smile crept across my face, before long I would get to hear his voice every morning.
