You offer us a clear arc in this story, @princess-dara. The conflict is well defined, and established early. Dara wants to get married and George isn't tuned into what she wants. We almost chuckle when he mutters to himself, Didn't she like the necklace? He seems well intentioned but clueless.

We also applaud Dara for standing up for what she wants. You capture the perspectives of the different characters well.

Thank you for sharing this story with us, @princess-dara.
