One Autumn Night In Rhine Falls

It was one autumn night in 1984 when Carl proposed marriage to his beloved Linda.
“Let’s get married in December,” Carl appealed to her.
They were looking at the exhilarating sight of the Rhine Falls, with resplendent lights beaming on the rushing noisy waterfalls.
“What did you say? I can’t understand you. Why should we get worried in December?” Linda said with a laugh. Of course, she was just joking.
“I said, let’s get married in December,” Carl stressed.

Jerusalem was silent. She realized that what her father said really counted.
