The season 8 finale of "The Big Bang Theory" was a total cliffhanger for fans, where it showed the breakup of Amy and Sheldon, and Sheldon taking out a ring — that's a total bummer.

But spoilers for the show's next season would give clues as to what viewers can expect.

Will Sheldon and Amy, or "Shamy," not ever get back together, or will Sheldon do anything to profess his true love for Amy and his desire to be her husband?

When Sheldon took out the ring, it's pretty obvious that he will be proposing to Amy (or is he really going to?), but show runner Steven Molaro said at "The Big Bang Theory" panel during the recent San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) that the real story behind the ring and if Sheldon intended to propose or not will be revealed in the new season, according to a report from Business Insider.

It was also reported that Sheldon and Amy's story will unfold on the premiere of season 9

In another report from Design&Trend, show writer Eric Kaplan was asked if Amy's backstory will be given focus on the new season and he responded that he also wanted to know that part of the story.

He said that fans may learn that Amy had a "great, great uncle who didn't play by the rules," the news outlet reported.

Meanwhile, it was also previously reported by The Hollywood Reporter (THR) that Sheldon and Amy's story is anything but over.

Molaro told THR that he doesn't know what will happen but it's certain that Sheldon is "clearly fond" of Amy.

"I don't think they're done speaking by any means. He's so fond of her — something is going to happen between them, I'm sure," he said.

That's quite a hint enough. Who knows what could be in store for the couple?

In the meantime, fans will just have to wait for the premiere of "The Big Bang Theory" season 9, which will be on Sept. 21.
