It was my 28th birthday and we went out to dinner with family & friends like usually.  We were at Bonefish Grill and everyone was finish eating and the waitress can to the table and brought me a box of chocolates.  She said they give it out when it’s your first time there or if it was your birthday. She handed me the gold box and I thanked her.  Everyone kept telling me to open the box and I said why it’s just chocolates…… it was a box of chocolates, but the ring was also in the box.
