Chapter 22 Figure Out How To Bring Mom And Dad Closer Together

• The jeweler, a distinguished gentleman with a keen eye for romance, brought out a selection of rings. Ciara’s eyes roamed over them, each one a masterpiece. She hesitated, feeling the weight of the decision. Eamon stood by her side, his presence was no longer unbearable to her. After what felt like an eternity, Ciara’s gaze settled on a delicate set: a platinum engagement ring with a solitaire diamond, simple yet elegant, and a matching wedding band encrusted with smaller diamonds. She pointed to them, her hand trembling slightly.
• “These,” she said softly. “These are the ones.” Eamon’s smile grew, and he nodded in approval. “They’re perfect. Just like you.” The jeweler carefully packaged the rings, and Eamon took them with a sense of satisfaction. As they stepped out of the shop, he turned to Ciara and slid the rings onto her finger, then joyfully placed the matching one on his own.
• “This is just the beginning,” he said, his voice filled with promise. “We’ll take it one step at a time, but I want you to know how much you mean to me.” Ciara looked at the ring, the diamond catching the light and sparkling brilliantly. It felt strange and wonderful on her finger. As they walked back to join the rest of the family, Ciara’s mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. She still felt a bit of panic, but Eamon’s words had struck a chord within her. She had spent so many years in fear and pain, but perhaps it was time to let go of the past and embrace the possibility of happiness.
