79-Diamond
Gertrude Moon smiled at the new diamond ring on her daughter's hand and looked up at the man who had promised Daphne the stars. "I'm very happy for the two of you. It's about time that Daphne settled down. I don't know what's taken her so bloody long!"
"Mum, please! Stop embarrassing me!"
Gertrude could tell that her daughter was uncomfortable, but there was no mistaking the truth. Daphne had been through too many bad relationships.
"Daphne, I love you and I just want your marriage to last forever."
Daphne smiled tearfully and they embraced. "I love you too, Mum."
