Flying in this yellow box with wings and engine, Melba smoothed her new silk dress. It cost her $600, the new purse $400. Dammit! I've saved for this moment, I deserve this!
When her long-time beau, Clarence, decided to take her up in his brother's plane, Melba hesitated. James was an okay pilot, she had been told.
After a spectacular loop and bank, Clarence turned to her with a giant diamond ring in hand, "Will you marry me, Mel?"
Melba looked at him in a daze. She opened her $400 handbag. "Blaaah!" as she threw up in it and all over her dress.
It was a moment to remember.
