A housing problem
Sue and Alan had been dating for many years.Every weekend they went to a movie together on Saturday night.On Sundays they went to the beach in the summer and to the country in the winter.
Sue know that Alan wanted to marry her,and she wanted to marry Alan,too.She waited patiently for him to ask her to marry him.However,although he often told her he loved her,he never said anything about marriage.This made Sue unhappy.She was nearly thirty.She believed that if Alan did not marry her soon she might never marry.She did not want to be a spinster.She wanted to have a husband and a family of her own.
One evening,as they were walking home after a movie,she said,"Alan,don't you think it is time you asked me something?"
Alan thought for a moment.He knew what she was thinking about.At last he said,"I'm sorry Sue,but I don't think I have anything to ask you at this time."
"Then I will have to ask you,Alan,"Sue said."I cannot wait any longer.I'm getting old."
She stopped walking and looked at him.
"Alan,"she said,"we've known each other for ten years.I love you and you love me.Will you marry me?"
Alan took hold of Sue's hand.
"Sue,"he said,"I want to marry you,but we cannot get married yet.We have nowhere to live.I do not have much money and neither do you.We cannot buy a place of our own."
"That isn't important,"Sue said."We can live with your parents."
