I thought I was just accompanying Rohan on a work trip to Paris
I thought I was just accompanying Rohan on a work trip to Paris. Little did I know he had something else planned entirely. As we boarded our private jet (perks of my job, I guess), I noticed Rohan seemed a bit jittery. I chalked it up to his usual pre-flight nerves. Halfway through the flight, he suggested we pop open a bottle of champagne. "Why not?" I thought. It's not every day we jet off to Paris, right? As I sipped my bubbly, Rohan fumbled with something in his pocket. Next thing I knew, he was down on one knee – in the aisle of the plane! "Zara, you've made these past three years the best of my life. Will you marry me?" I was speechless. Through happy tears, I managed to squeak out a "Yes!" as the flight attendants cheered. Talk about a mile-high proposal!
