get for you ladies?”
    “I’ll have a Jack and Coke, the ribeye steak medium well, and the bacon and cheese mashed potatoes,” Cameryn said handing the menu back to the waiter.
    “And I’ll have a bottle of Evian and the Chinese Chicken Salad.”
    When the waiter was gone, Cameryn couldn’t resist teasing her sister.
    “Rabbit food again, huh? It’s a wonder the wind doesn’t blow you away.”
    “We can’t all be carnivores like you who never gain a pound,” Deena said..
    “Last time I checked I was a couple of sizes bigger than you , sis, but anyway, tell me what’s new with you,” Cameryn said..
    “The usual. I’m going away in two weeks on another story.”
    “Where to?”
    “Afghanistan.”
    “Deena, it’s not safe over there.”
    “Of course it is , Cam. I’m reporting on the withdrawal of troops. How it’s going to affect not only us but the Afghans as well.”
    “I don’t like it. Tell them to send someone else.”
    “I will not. This could be the story of a lifetime,” Deena said stubbornly.
    The waiter appeared with their order, and Cameryn held back her retort as she attacked her food. When her hunger subsided, she started on Deena again, desperate to get her point across.
    “Would you rather have a life to live or be the story? You know there are still terror cells over there that have it in for us. I know your job means a lot to you, but I can’t help worrying.”
    “Cam, I’ll be fine. Other journalists have been there , and nothing happened. Have a little faith.”
    “I’ll try.”
    The two women grew quiet as they finished their meals. Cameryn could feel herself relaxing after sipping the last of her Jack and Coke.
    “I’ve got some news to tell you.”
    “What is it?” Cameryn asked sitting up straighter.
    “I’m engaged! Matt asked me to marry him, and I said yes!” Deena said excitedly, holding out her hand so Cameryn could see her ring.
    The ring was a pink diamond cut into the shape of a heart, surrounded by white princess-cut diamonds. The heart-shaped pink diamond had to be at least ten carats. Damn. Matt must have a sugar mama Deena doesn’t know about to afford something like this. Last time I checked college professors weren’t millionaires. Cameryn leaned across the table and kissed Deena’s cheek.
    “Congratulations , sis! When did he pop the question?”
    “This morning and you are the first person I’ve told.”
    “Why didn’t you tell Mom first?”
    “Because I knew you’d need advance warning so you could prepare yourself to be my Maid of Honor.”
    “Me?”
    “Yes , you. Who else would it be?”
    “One of your bubble -headed friends like Meagan or Tori.”
    “Cam , stop arguing. You’re it, and I am not taking no for an answer.”
    “Fine , Deena. I’ll be more than happy to be your Maid of Honor,” Cameryn said, smiling widely.
    “Perfect. Now we have to get started with the wedding planning. You’re not off the hook with that either.”
    “Deena, give me a break. Let Mom help with that. I’ll just show up on the big day.”
    “Not happening. Now I hate to rush off, but I have so much to do. I’ll call you soon,” Deena said rising and putting money on the table.
    “Wait, Deena,” Cameryn said rising, too.
    “What is it , sis?”
    Cameryn grabbed Deena and hugged her hard.
    “I know I may fuss and grumble about all this girly stuff, but I really am happy for you. You’re a wonderful woman, and Matt has no idea how lucky he is to have you. He’d better treat you right, or Daddy and I are going to break his kneecaps,” Cameryn said wiping away a stray tear as she looked at her sister.
    “Don’t cry , Cam! Now you’re making me get all teary,” Deena said as she wiped the tears from her sister’s face.
    “I don’t cry often. Allow me this small moment,” Cameryn said returning her sister’s gesture and wiping Deena’s tears.
    “Okay. Now I’ve gotta go. I love you,” Deena said kissing her sister’s cheek,
