‘Jasmine, will you marry me?’ Before she could answer, he produced the velvet box. Instinctively, Jasmine took it and opened the lid. She gasped.
‘Robin, it’sbeautiful.’ Then, realising she hadn’t answered him, looked into his eyes. ‘Yes, of course.’
Robin placed the ring on her finger.
‘A perfect fit,’ she said in delight.
‘Obviously meant to be,’ replied Robin.
They kissed, then Robin pulled back.
‘I want to set the date.’
Jasmine paused. ‘When?’
‘Before the twins are christened.’
Another pause. ‘Why not at the same time?’ suggested Jasmine.
‘What, you mean a wedding and christening together?’
‘Well, everyone we know will be there. Why not get the twins christened and exchange vows too?’
Robin blinked. Jasmine took being practical to a new level. It did make sense though. Everyone they knewwouldbe there in church, so yes, why not? It’s what he wanted, wasn’t it? His little family all nicely sorted. His face broke into a beam.
‘You’re on.’
