When we married, we were young and money was really tight. Unlike couples today, a diamond engagement ring is a must before the young lady say yes to walk the aisle. I am no different in yearning for such material things but have never let it rule over our relationship.
Although unspoken, I know that my hubby would like to give me one of those sparkling stone if the time is ripe. Yesterday, he presented me with a solitaire ring, with a lot of engineering research (colourless, minor particles include etc) and love.
I was so touched. Speechless in fact. He rave on about the research he did on diamond but I was already drunk with the love he is showering.
