Of course, Bob knew that the ultimate source… of anything good, didn't actually come from him - rather it came from channelling the higher power which filled him to the brim… ✨
with Divine Energy, allowing good things to… be… brought from the depths of mere Possibility…
-Into… an Actualised… Reality ✨

Allie had always been different 🫢✨🤭🌻💖💫
Even with his "Eyes of Rizz" allowing him to see a lot of quantifiables, such as the effect of his Rizz on her [Rizzmeter], her [Anti-Rizz Index], her [Interest Scale] and [Relationship Meter], it was in fact the intangibles, how he felt around her, her encouragement and support, her intelligence, her kindness, her strength, the sheer sense of Possibility for something far beyond what they both could accomplish alone… that had made Bob realise that she was - for him at least - truly someone special [that said, the Gift of the Goddess perk - giving him a massive 53% bonus to all his stats, as well as +69% to his Imagination, Empathy, Respect and Morals - was nothing to scoff at too of course 🫢✨ !]
As a result of studying "the Art of Rizz", and in particular, due to his Respect and Morals Stat which was now Level 453 and counting, he had learned more and more about the importance of CARE - Consent, Awareness, Respect, and Empathy [In Chapter 229] and so, even with his 567 000 000 000 Rizz Index, 7 179 000 000 Touch Index, 23 873 000 000 Strength and 27 634 000 000 Intelligence amongst everything else, in the end, despite the obvious temptation to try to 'game' the connection, Bob understood that the best relationships, and arguably, True Rizzmastery, was grounded, not in manipulation or coercion, but in genuinely respecting and giving people the Choice to decide for themselves whether or not this was something that they wanted - it was Their Life after all! 🌻✨
Of course, this is not to say that he wouldn't do his best to genuinely build the relationship in a healthy way, and Communicate in a way that he believed would more likely lead to better outcomes for all involved, but ultimately, CARE was crucial - not only for Allie, but also when it came to himself too.
As a result, Bob knew that even though he could do all the 'right things' - and indeed, he could conveniently now see that Allie's [Relationship Meter] was significantly… filled, and her [Interest Scale] was showing a reasonably favourable hue - it seemed she was currently more or less happy, although there was an element of something else - probably it was naturally her slight… apprehension awaiting his response?! - and her [Rizzmeter] - despite her extremely high Anti-Rizz Index - was also steadily increasing… ✨
-That, in the end, despite everything, there would always be a chance, a genuine option - due to free choice, which was the whole point anyway - that things might not work out, and that Allie might… that she could… choose a different path and trajectory for her own Life.
___
In any case, the fact that Allie had asked him - reasonably, in his opinion, since both their Time and Youth was precious and they had known each other for a fair while now 🫢✨about his Plans, what he had in mind, and what he had come to find ✨- the time had come.
Time after all, waited for no one ! ✨🔥
Bob didn't know what things would look like exactly - no one knew the future after all.
That said. He had now done and seen enough [I mean it was now Chapter 426 after all, come on! 🫢✨] to know that Allie was now important enough to him to become Someone that he Consciously wanted to Choose ✨🔥… if that was what She wanted too 💖✨
Time and Resources were limited, but Bob believed that the Potential for them to make each other's lives exponentially better - which had already clearly happened to date ✨ - now justified giving a chance for their relationship to become even deeper and filled with… new Possibilities 🫢✨🤭…

"Allie…"
Bob says, even as he… Surrenders, and gives Allie the freedom, and Choice ✨💖
"I have a lot I'd like to do… But in the end, one thing stays true…"
"If I get the chance to choose…"
"I'd like to do it Together… with you 💖✨"
"… Is that something You might like… too? 🫢✨"
