Hope couldn't be happier. "Hope you look beautiful under this moonlight. I love you so much. I promise I will make you the happiest person in this world." said John."John I'm happy now.

They laugh and talk about the wedding. It will be here soon. There was a knock on the door. John went to open the door. It was Mr. Nile."Hello folks. I didn't want to intrude your dinner. I brought a gift for you two. I hope you will like it." said Mr. Nile."You didn't have to do that. Thank you." said Hope."I just want to give you something to remember me by since once you two get married both of you will be leaving. Miss. Brooks you were kind to me. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart." said Mr. Nile."Thank you very much." Mr. Nile left the home for they can finish up their dinner."How nice that Mr. Nile given this gift to us." said Hope."I know he is so kind. I'm going to miss him." said John. "I know he will take care of this farm very well." said Hope. They finished up dinner and gather up the dishes. After they finish cleaning up, they went outside to see the stars. John and Hope were sitting at the porch and look upon the stars. John was holding her hand. He was thinking how lucky he was to find a wonderful person like Hope.
