Mr. And Mrs. Dove Short Story

Before Reggie returns to his fruit farm in Rhodesia, he must propose to the woman he loves. At Colonel Proctor’s, Anne greets him at the door and, during a lull in their conversation, suggests Reggie say goodbye to her doves, as well. Mrs. Dove, tittering, always walks in front, Anne points out, and Mr. Dove always follows, bowing. She could never live like that, she says, when Reggie asks her to marry him. Or could she?
