THE FUNERAL
Subject: Lord John Wexley IV's memorial.
Where: The Wexley family home.
Who: Daphne Wexley
Warnings: N/A
Open to: everyone who would have attended the funeral.

"...Lord John Oliver Wexley IV was buried today, but his spirit will live on in the rest of us... Amen.." finished the priest as he crossed the grave and then there was silence for a few moments. The first noise came from Lady Wexley, letting out a bellow of sobs that was obviously for show but no one would dare confront her about it. Daphne stood in between her brother, Johnny, and Daniel Perkins, trying her best to hold in any emotions that were fighting their way to the surface. Tears streamed down her face, but she made no noise, simply stared straight ahead and made eye contact with no one.

The party moved to the Wexley's family home where the guests were able to meet, discuss, and remember the passing of a very important man. Refreshments had been set up next to a rather large painting of John Wexley IV. Plenty of chairs and sofa's and places for people to sit and converse. Though, the object of the after party was to uplift the deceased and speak about him, but like any other party, everyone had their own objectives as to being there.

Daphne stood at the picture of her father, holding the glass of wine that Daniel had given her, not moving. She didn't to move, show emotion, talk, eat or drink. Knowing, though, that her mother was pretending to be completely beside herself, it was up to Daphne to be the hostess. Thank God for Johnny, though. He took up most of the duties himself.

"I can tell you have a very kind heart," Ella said with a demure smile. She tried to think on whether or not Daphne might really love Doctor Perkins and vice versa. Really she wasn't sure, especially with the wine still working wonders on her. "And the dear doctor might very well be deserving of love... but Daphne deserves better. She deserves Robert! So it's decided. We'll find him and reunite them both!"

Ella was completely delighted! If they were successful, and now they simply had to be, then Daphne and Robert would be married. That meant Ella could really start to look for her own future husband. She would even get a coming out party! Her mother wouldn't dare deny her that.

	"Why thank you," Robert replied, equinimity quite restored. "And I can tell you have a very romantic disposition. I always like to see that in ladies. It makes everything much more fun. I think we must do so, Miss Ella. We must find Robert Lovering." Which would actually be quite easy, as she already had. (Reply to this) (Parent)
