17-Regrets
Daphne tearfully smiled at her beloved English grandmother, whose life was fading fast. "Do you have any regrets, Grammy Moon?"
The old woman looked at Daphne and took her hand, smiling weakly. "I want so much that you find someone who will love you unconditionally, Daphne Moon. Someone who thinks the world of you."
Niles kissed Grammy Moon's soft, wrinkled cheek and then held Daphne close while she cried in his arms. "I love Daphne unconditionally, and I think the world of her."
Daphne turned to Niles in astonishment. "You do?"
"Yes. And I want you to marry me, Daphne."
