Billy traveled in time back to the veterans' hospital again. The blanket was over his

head. It was quiet outside the blanket. ''Is my mother gone?' said Billy.

''Yes.''

Billy peeked out from under his blanket. His fiancée was out there now, sitting on the

visitor's chair. Her name was Valencia Merble. Valencia was the daughter of the owner of

the Ilium School of Optometry. She was rich. She was as big as a house because she

couldn't stop eating. She was eating now. She was eating a Three Musketeers Candy Bar.

She was wearing trifocal lenses in harlequin frames, and the frames were trimmed with

rhinestones. The glitter of the rhinestones was answered by the glitter of the diamond in

her engagement ring. The diamond was insured for eighteen hundred dollars. Billy had

found that diamond in Germany. It was booty of war.

Billy didn't want to marry ugly Valencia. She was one of the symptoms of his disease.

He knew he was going crazy, when he heard himself proposing marriage to her, when he

begged her to take the diamond ring and be his companion for life.
