Point of View

The story is written in third person from an omniscient point of view. This is the only available option because there are multiple characters and events going on, some simultaneously.

The scenes are transitioned well so that the reader should have no trouble determining the current perspective. As a rule, these scene changes are handled by use of the character's name and a statement indicating the character's current situation. For example, Trish shows the diamond ring to her co-workers and that section begins with Trish's name and the action.
