July 1990

Jeva's First Wedding Anniversay Celebration in Florida, July 1990.

Reva: "Where is everyone?"

Josh: "Well, Marah and Shayne are amazingly taking a nap together and Harley, is uh.."

Reva: "Shopping."

Josh: "Shopping probably."

Reva: "So, we're alone..."

Josh: "Yeah.."

Reva: "Whatever will we do?"

Josh: "I'll show ya.."

[They kiss, and fall back on the bed, as Reva feels something under the pillow and find a wrapped box.]

Reva: "What is this, what is this?"

Josh: [jokingly] "I don't know, who would put something like that under your pillow? How strange."

Reva: "I wonder.."

Josh: "Well there's a card, maybe you should look at it."

Reva: "Oh you think so?"

Josh: "Read the card Reva."

Reva: [reading] 'Happy Anniversary to my one and only from the luckiest man in the world, Always, Bud' Always." [opens the box] "What is all this?"

Josh: "These are mementos from our first year of marriage."

Reva: "Oh Joshua.."

Josh: "This right here is dried wildflower from the meadow we were married in, and this is a piece of the candle we used on our honeymoon night. This is a lock of Marah's hair from her first haircut. This is one of my favorites here, Shayne's footprint. I had Doctor Sedwick make another copy. And then we jump all the way to yesterday where I found this beautiful shell, almost perfect, just for you."

Reva: "I just wish that I remembered our anniversary. I lost track of time since I've been sick."

Josh: "Having you well is the perfect gift for me. I love you, more and more with every heartbeat."

Reva: "I love you too Bud, now and forever."

Josh: "Always."

Reva: "Always."

[They begin to kiss as there is a knock on the door]

Reva: "Come on in."

Marah: [carrying a kitten] "Look what I found!"

Reva: "It's so cute. And they say bad cats are bad luck, how could they say that?"

Marah: "Mommy, can you take me down to the market to get some milk for the kitten?"

Reva: "Well it would be rude to leave your new little guest. How about if I go to the market to get the milk and you stay here with Daddy and your new friend."

Josh: "But, but..."

Reva: "I'll be right back."

[Later: Jeva, Marah, Baby Shayne, Harley and Dylan are having a special dinner, as they toast to the future.]

Josh: "Now, before we start I would like to propose a toast to my wife. May our life together here on in be as beautiful as you are right now. Cheers."

Reva: "Okay, Joshua, my husband, my friend, my life. Thank you for making me the happiest woman alive. And whether it'll be one year from now or a thousand, I will always love you."

Josh: "I'll drink to that."

Marah: "My turn now!"

Josh: "Okay, come on over here, do it just like I told you, all right?"

Marah: "I [pro]pose a toast to my mommy, my daddy and Shayne and I love you."

Reva: "Aww, thank you."

Josh: "Is that it, you finished?"

Marah: "Wait! I'm not done yet."

Reva: "Okay..."

Marah: "And I hope Harley and Dylan get married, so they can be a part of the family." [Reva laughs]

Dylan: "That's really sweet Marah. But um, me and Sam are getting married, and when we do, you can be the flower girl."

Marah: "Yeah!"

Josh: "Good job sweetie."

Dylan: "Here's to mom, and Josh. Happy anniversary, I love you, thank you."

Reva: "I'll drink to that!"

Harley: "I'd just like to say something. This is to the whole Lewis family. You guys are pretty incredible. You know, I used to read about this family in the society section when I lived on Fifth Street and I thought that y'all were just like all the other rich folk but you're not. And I know it's been a real short time, we've been through some pretty scary stuff together. I always knew that you guys were gonna make it through because you just love each other so much. I just hope that I have all of this one day too."

Reva: "Thank you Harley."

Marah: "Let's eat now, I'm hungry."

[They eat and laugh, unaware of the heartbreak that is to follow.]
