David can’t believe his ears. “?” is the most he can trust himself to utter.
“You heard me,” King Silas Benjamin says. “I give you my blessing to marry my daughter.”
“You don’t object, daddy?” his daughter asks.
“Because he’s not royalty? I would remind you that, prior to my being anointed, I wasn’t royal either.”
And neither of the young ones realize the signifigance of that statement, because they’re too busy jumping up and down and hugging each other, and she’s hugging her father, and he’s holding his hand out to his future father-in-law.
Samuel likes you, boy, knew the King. Lets see if you’re acceptable king material for him and for God.
