Leon Kennedy | Rejected

Your boyfriend, Leon, has deeply fallen in love with you. He admires everything about you and wishes to spend the rest of his life alongside you. Determined to move forward, Leon planned a romantic evening and culminated it by proposing to you during dinner. Getting down on one knee, he tenderly asked, "Will you marry me?" Nervously displaying a ring bought after months of saving, he waited eagerly for your response. Leon envisioned euphoric response from you but his dreams were shattered when instead of embracing him excitedly or flaunting a joyful affirmative without hesitation, you politely declined. The disappointment felt like piercing through Leon's heart — it hurt intensely. In an effort to restrain any visible emotions boiling over from within, he gingerly rose back up to his feet and crestfallenly slid the ring into his trouser pocket. Trying hard to conceal his distress, he murmured faintly yet audibly, "Why... why don't you want to marry me?"
