Saphirra's POV We stood over the grave watching as they lowered Twilia into the hole that had been dug. Rhett stood in his black military uniform watching with tears streaming down his face. He held the twins one in each arm, they held on to their father with tears in their eyes. The casket was lowered into the ground and Isabella cried out for her mommy. I felt myself begin to cry. Twilia had been a great friend when we were younger and she had loved Rhett well. If I could have chosen a wife for Rhett besides myself it would have been her. I felt guilty for the affair with Rhett while she had been so sick. Maybe if he hadn't been with me that day he could have saved her. That was a guilt I would have to live with the rest of my life. I watched as people hugged Rhett
