Dreaming

Dreamingly she stroked her boyfriends hair. His short blond hair was beautiful. Millicent dreamed on.

She was married and had seven children, six red-haired, one blond. How could Ernie… She looked up into the eyes of her husband. It wasn't Ernie, but Bill. Whatever happened to Ernie?
A graveyard. Millicent read:

Here lies:
Ernest James MacMillan
1980-2000
Beloved husband of Millicent MacMillan - Bulstrode

Millicent cried. Ernith had died and she had sought -and obviously found- comfort in Bill's loving arms.

"What are you dreaming about?" Ernie asked Millicent. She had a cute smile on her face.

"You!" she mumbled.
