She stopped to get a bite...

and she ordered a burger with all the trimmings...
and it looked and smelled SO DELICIOUS...
and she was ravenous...
and as she bit into the juicy sandwich, her tooth hit against something hard...
it actually felt like a metal object !!
so she spit it all into her napkin in order to see what it was...
LO and BEHOLD...
it was a DIAMOND ring !!!
INSIDE HER BURGER !!!
WHAT ???
a small diamond on a simple band...
she called the waitress over to report this ridiculous situation...
and when the girl saw the ring,
 she began to WEEP severely and somewhat hysterically...
she couldn't stop!
apparently, the girl had been engaged to the cook in the restaurant...
and they'd had a HUGE fight...
she's thrown her ring at him...
she'd accused him of flirting with one of the customers....
(she hadn't realized that the customer had been his COUSIN, whom he hadn't seen in years!)
He was so angry at her for her lack of trust in him,
that he took the ring....
buried it deep inside of the chopped sirloin...
AND abruptly QUIT his job and left town...
this had happened only yesterday....
saddled with this miserable story, and no longer hungry....
she hugged the girl, left a tip anyway....and went home...
ahhhh....THE HUMAN BEING....so breakable...
