“Is this a four carat emerald cut, set in platinum?”
Dennis smiled. “Seems your fiancée knows what she likes.”
Sean smiled. “This is my godsister…my girlfriend’s best friend. What do you think?”
“I’d marry you.” She stared at the ring. “Sean, this is beautiful, but it’s not Kyla.”
“What?” Sean questioned her comment.
“It’s a gorgeous ring, but it’s not her. Sorry, Dennis.”

bsp; “I understand. Rings are like husbands, you want to get it right the first time, so you don’t have to do it again,” Dennis replied.
“Exactly,” Trina replied.
“So what do you think she’d like?” Dennis asked.
“I’m not quite sure. I just know this is too traditional.”
“What’s she like?” he asked Sean.
“She’s funny, beautiful, red is her favorite color. She’s a shoe junkie, an interior designer and she—”
“Let me. He’s being modest. Here,” Trina pulled out her phone and opened Kyla’s website. “This is her.” She handed her phone to Dennis.
“Wow, you’re right, he’s being nice. She’s beautiful,” Dennis commented.
“I told my husband, if I were a man, I’d go after her. Sean didn’t want to say it, but she’s very sexy, and frank. At the same time, she’s got this strange innocence and a big heart.” She looked at Sean. “Did I leave anything out?”
He smiled. “No, that’s her.”
“Why didn’t you say that when you came in? Of course this ring isn’t her. Excuse me.” Dennis walked away.
“Are you ashamed of Kyla?” Trina asked.
“No.”
“Then stop acting like you are. Most men would jump at the opportunity to say their girlfriend is sexy, beautiful, funny, and a successful business woman. And, you have an added bonus, she loves God. Dude, you’ve hit pay dirt. So act like it.” She socked him.
“Ouch.” He rubbed his arm.
Dennis returned with a tray of rings, and Trina’s eyes got wide and glassy. She picked up the ring in the middle. “Now, this is Kyla.” She handed the ring to Sean.
“Are you sure?” Sean asked.
“Sean, this is a four carat ruby with, I’d say about a half carat of pave diamonds surrounding it in a pave and platinum band.”
“I looked at something similar on line, but wasn’t sure. I thought she might want something a little more traditional.”
“When it comes to buying jewelry, always go with your first mind,” Dennis commented.
“I thought a traditional stone would be better.”
“But she’s not a traditional woman. This is her. She stands out in a quiet way. When someone sees this on her hand, they’ll know she’s not available and that the man who put that ring on her finger loves her. For men, an engagement ring is marking your turf.”
“Trina, Ky isn’t a piece of grass.”
