I took a deep breath, my heart pounding. The listeners were probably leaning in closer to their radios, waiting for my response. It felt surreal—a moment that could change everything playing out live on air.
“Well…” I started, my voice shaky. “I guess I’d be a hypocrite if I didn’t follow my own advice.”
Mike’s soft laugh came through the line. “So, that’s a yes?”
“That’s a yes,” I said, my lips curving into a smile.
The radio station erupted with cheers from my team, and I could hear Lucy laughing on the other line. “About time!” she said before hanging up, leaving Mike and me to soak in the moment.
“Clown costume and all,” he added teasingly, his tone warm and genuine.
“You’ll never let me live that down, will you?” I replied with a laugh.
“Not a chance.”
As I ended the show that day, I couldn’t help but marvel at how unpredictable life could be. Sometimes, love doesn’t come the way you expect—but when it does, it’s unforgettable.
