Prompt: She decided to go to her father’s grave, to ask his advice.
Eliana gazed at the ring in the box. She had been shocked when Robert proposed.
She loved him. He was perfect for her. Kind. Wealthy. Responsible. He made her laugh.
But he was twenty years her senior. His grown children disapproved of their relationship.
She needed to ask her father for advice. She walked the three blocks to the cemetery and told him the whole story.
“Should I marry him, Dad?”
A dove perched on the headstone. It let out a happy chirp and flew away.
Eliana took the ring out of the box and slipped it on her finger.
See what the others have to say!

Aww, this is so sweet! Great ending!
It would be a very hard thing to decide, to be happy in the face of others disapproval. I like that it wasn't just flat out told her do this.
