If you're close enough to read this, you betta:

Know and have my favorite drink

Be holding a 9-figure lottery jackpot winning ticket for me and ONLY me

Have deeds to the luxury beach house in the Seychelles that I haven’t bought yet

Possess a massage therapy licence/medical qualification with my signed consent for an appointment or advanced preparation for a concussion with extended hospital stay

Flash me the gentlest sweetest eyes that ever blinked with a smile to melt glaciers

Tell me you got a trailer load of books to gift me plus my own personal library cuz it might save ya life

Whisper breaths warm with truth in each ear of this sacred honor to share tranquil moments and be my Man

    Yes. And if they're that close with none of those, I'd hate to see the outcome. Bloody brilliant.
