will be six weeks from now,” the judge said. He peered over his glasses at Sylvia. “I know how you feel about these kids. We’ve covered that ground before. I don’t need to tell you how important it is that they are back here for court.”

“A diamond!” Sylvia saw what her friend was flaunting. “You’re engaged!”
Glory laughed with glee and nodded.
“Oh, my!” Sylvia reached up and hugged her friend. “Congratulations!”
