My boyfriend is Spanish, and I secretly began learning the language to surprise him. Today, he got a call from his mom and started chatting in Spanish, assuming I couldn’t understand him. But his words left me stunned. He said, “Here’s the plan. I’ll pretend that I’m sick next week so we can skip the family gathering—I really just want to spend the weekend with you, mi amor,”
his voice warm and playful. My jaw dropped. He had no idea I understood every word. A mix of relief and excitement washed over me—his “plan” was sweet, not sinister. I bit my lip, debating whether to reveal my secret then and there. Instead, I decided to wait for the perfect moment to surprise him, knowing this would make our weekend even more special.
