comment of the stories: 

Love means good feeling came from  two person with different gender that is man and women. In this story, the writer tries to tell us that a married couple must have trust and respect to achieve happiness in marriage. There are many ways for a couple to be succeed in their marriage. That is by spent more time together. Remember those important dates such anniversary and birthday. This situation can be seen in this story where her husband fancies announce their anniversary in a formal event. Beside that looks doesn’t guaranteed happiness in marriage, this can be seen when the wife still want to marry Francis even though he is not handsome or as a prince. This story is very interesting to read because it tells lot of moral value especially for those who just about to get married. We hope that this kind of story can be written more so rate of divorce can be reduce. Nowadays, marriage problems are getting serious among our residents especially in the city. We hope by this novel all people can take this as example to get the happiness in their marriage.
