The
day had been incredible. Marcia kept fingering the ring she wore on
her ring finger of her left hand. It was beautiful, and she was so
happy Darryl had bought it. Briefly, she had wondered how he
afforded it, but then she realized that he had saved a lot of money
over the last couple of years.
The
surprises had only begun with Darryl’s proposal. When Mike asked
for the bill,
the server brought a slip of paper. There was no sign of the normal
credit card tray. Instead, there was a note. Mike read it, teared
up, and then handed it to Gloria. He didn’t speak, and in fact, it
appeared as though he couldn’t.
