Ending - With a Bang

It's the 4th of July weekend...Celebration time, right!?! Not so much for me, internally. This is the weekend that I was asked to be a wife, to share my life and to put my dreams in his hands...all those years ago. Just after fireworks, we walked to the end of the island, under a full moon and a ring was placed on my finger!

He has kept his ring on all this time. I always wondered if it were a loyalty thing, a task just put off, or if he was in denial. Now, on the anniversary of our engagement, I see that he has removed his ring. This one hurts.

Not sure if it's the timing of the move or the finality of it.
