"You've only known me a little over a month."
"But I've waited years for you;"
"Yes," I said, "I believe you have: It shall be as you wish, dear."
And then, as a woman's greatest happiness lies in making the man she loves happy, and as no one ever looked so radiantly happy as Blakely, I was so glad I had said "yes," I didn't know what to do.
But Blakely knew exactly what to do; he kissed me.
