‘Yeah,’ Gus smirked. ’It’s something,isn’t it.? One of a kind.’
I looked increduously at the ring. It was that and more. I had always dreamt of an engagement ring like this. One hugh Emerald was surrounded by seven large diamonds. The setting was exquisite. I had known Gus for 12 months and was so in love. My parents had given their consent to the betrothal and inside the house the champagne bubbles were flowing freely.
’We should get back to the guests ’.I said to Gus.
My sister led the way , her arm linked with her new fiance, her beautiful engagement ring sparkling as the rays of the full moon played upon each facet.
I had to return to school the next day so I retired early and cried myself to sleep.
