Day By Day, Life Goes On

Day Sixteen: Memories

I cherish all my memories of Frankie.

I didn’t want to lose them.

That could be worse than losing him.

There is one I love more than the others.

The day I asked Frankie to marry me.

A Saturday.

We didn’t have to be anywhere.

Just laying there in each other’s arms.

I had thought about how I was going to do this for the last week.

Nothing went according to plan.

I just asked him.

When he said yes I was so happy.

“Good because now I can give you this.”

Then I gave him that simple silver ring.
