thing you want but you just can't have everything you
want. Beatrice took to her bed for weeks. She sobbed
uncontrollably whenever she heard footsteps in the hall
outside the door. It was quite a display of emotion and
it was breaking Emmett's heart.
Beatrice crawled out of the bedroom one day looking
pale and thin, and ate a bite of breakfast with
Emmett. She said that she understood that they were
spending too much and that they'd have to cut back but
she felt so frail, if they could only go to Virginia Beach
so she could take in the fresh sea air for her health,
she'd agree to whatever budget was necessary once
they came home.
Emmett was thrilled and booked a suite at the
Cavalier Hotel and Resort, Beatrice's favorite Virginia
Beach spot. What a time they had! Every day was
paradise and every night was a new honeymoon adventure.
Emmett was in heaven. But Emmett was older
than Beatrice, by about 20 years. He was in his late
50s when they met and she never admitted her actual
age but there was a significant difference. It had to be.
All the fresh air, physical activity, and lack of sleep was
starting to wear Emmett down. He was happier than
he'd ever been but honestly, he was having trouble
keeping up with Beatrice.
What a time they had! Every day
was paradise and every night
was a new honeymoon adventure.
Emmett was in heaven.
That's when it happened. One night Emmett was
not feeling well. He told Beatrice that his chest hurt
and he needed a doctor. Beatrice jumped on it. She
had the hotel pull her car around and loaded Emmett
up. Emmett thought they were going to a doctor nearby.
Oh no, Beatrice had other plans. Beatrice insisted
that they drive all the way back to Grace Hospital in
Richmond. " Only the best doctors for you, dear. "
Richmond is hours away from Virginia Beach. Emmett
begged for Beatrice to stop anywhere that had a
doctor, anyplace at all, but only heard, " No, only the
best will do. " As Emmett's heart slowly died in his
chest, he was reassured by his young, greedy new wife
and only heir that there was no place he was getting
treatment other than Grace Hospital because . . .
" Only the best will do. "
Come for the fun.
