The Crossroads

Ahhh, it's done, they said yes. Finlay smiled, stood up and applaused loudly.

He made his way slowly towards the fresh married couple, waiting patiently for the others also to congratulate. Once he reached the couple, he took both their hands, and warmly congratulated Johnny and Layla.

"I hope, that both of you enjoy your new lifes, stay together in good and bad times, although I hope that the bad times will never come. By the way, where does the honeymoon trip go? Shetland? Hawaii? The Omega rim? Oh, and before I forget, friends. On your table for the gifts... have a look, once you have time. You know, I don't like handing it over when so many are watching."

At the mentioned table, between lots of other beautiful, useful and expensive gifts, a medium sized sculpture was standing. Made of white procelain, portraying two doves with spread wings, connected through a ring of pure platinum in their bills.
