The Proposal

My dream has always been to get married before the age of thirty. I had the best boyfriend anyone would ever ask for. We dated for 6 years and I knew one day he'll pop the question.
We had great moments, did a lot of things together. We were close to each others family members. Most of all, I was best friends with his mom.
One day, he came to my house and told me had something serious to talk about and I was really happy. So, he started by telling me that he got the job in the oil company and that they'll be taking him abroad for a two year training.
I was okay with that, until he said he would like to end everything we had going on. I was confused. Like we were okay, what could the problem be?
He stood up and walked away without telling me what the problem was. At that moment I saw the sky turn red.
