After an announcement, the orchestra started playing slow and romantic tunes. The mood of the celebration that was only meeting and greeting changed suddenly into a beautiful and tender one. Slowly, the couples gathered in the middle of the large hall, where the design of a flower was made with colourful tiles.
Men and women started moving along the melody in the arms of their loved ones. Men cast an admiring gaze at their women, who blushed with a smile in return.
Ruth watched as Augustus led his wife on the dance floor. Theodora had a smile plastered on her face while her husband had a straight face. But his eyes held the love he had for his wife. The couple started swaying along with the music.
