News spread like wildfire that day. The crowd of parents witnessed a bizarre event unfolding before their eyes. It was the day Harold proposed to Julia. A wealthy 71 year old man, proposing to a 34 year old woman. And the most unexpected part? She said yes.
Harold had stood there, dapper in his glossy three-piece suit. Even before he dropped to one knee, Julia sensed what was coming. She had been the best thing that happened to him in a long while, and she knew there was little else to look forward to in his twilight years. He was aged and frail, and she didn’t know how much longer he would live.
