A Beautiful Bride

Chapter 1-3

"Where are you going?".

Ian smiled with impatient beauty. "Prescription. Just stay there, okay? He"ll be right back."

Cecilia had the feeling that the sun had completely disappeared behind the dark clouds. Cecilia understands that her husband"s reaction may be rooted in obsession and grief over their daughter"s death. More than that, he may also fear that the past will repeat itself. If so, they will lose their very loved one and lose their married life but have to overcome many difficulties to find it back.

Cecilia understands her husband"s feelings, and she herself has to face her fears. She believed - or wanted to believe that I too had overcome the pain of my past. Obviously she was wrong.

Jon carried the second box next to the first. He took her hand and gently, as if he wanted Maryellen to know that he was so happy that they were finally together.

As they went out and back in to load the car, nine-month-old Katie was fast asleep in her crib. Maryellen realized that they had only a few minutes left before she woke up, and yet most of their belongings were still unpacked.

“Is that enough?” Jon put his hands on his hips, scanning the living room.

“I"ll get more later,” Maryellen said, in fact, she barely packed any of her stuff. She has lived in this house for almost two years and what she has accumulated during that long time is amazing. Just sorting through clothes and books to see what"s worth keeping, so giving to someone else or something can take weeks. "Is there more?" Jon"s voice sounded listening.

"There are many more. Would you like to pack a few more boxes? ". Maryellen thought maybe she should find a way to fill the back seat of the car in front of his landlord.

"I just want you to stay in my house forever."

She had a feeling Jon couldn"t bend any more rings. He loves her and can"t wait to live with her.

"I"m looking forward to coming to your house." Maryellen walked into the kitchen and tried to think of what more they should bring this afternoon. Moving house has never been easy for Maryellen.

“Have you told your mother about your wedding day?”

“Mom said it was a good idea to get married on Memorial Day.” Maryellen smiled. Her mother has said that her job and Jon"s decision to stick together was a natural control.

Because there was a common wedding between the two, according to Grace Sherman, the wedding should have been held a long time ago.

"You wouldn"t be upset if we didn"t have a big wedding, would you?"

Maryelle shook her head. She opened the refrigerator and took out a pot of tea. She went through a lot of sweetness and bitterness in her first marriage. The wedding was held grandly with many guests, but their wedding was not very good. When I was young, I was young and naive. A year later they went to the building to get a divorce. That trailer made Maryellen mentally depressed for a long time.

Twelve years later, when she meets Jon, she still has feelings of fear and dread. At first, she lepers him, insults him and does everything to keep him out of her life. Now, when she reviews her actions and words, she often feels ashamed. Jon took out two glasses from the cupboard and set them on the table. “Did you know that if you were in your husband"s apartment, you wouldn"t have as many rights as here?”

Maryellen was furious. “If you say that to me one more time, I swear I will…make you possessive.”

A bright smile before Jon morning. He is not a handsome man. He was tall, somewhat restrained, with dark hair and eyes that were always gleaming with see-through rays. But he"s the most talented person she"s ever met. He collaborated with one of the most popular exhibitions in Seattle and quickly upgraded his age-appropriate identity.

"Now you know everything about me," he said, lowering his head, not meeting her eyes.

“You know everything about me, too,” she whispered. Both have secrets, bitterness, and stories of their own. For the first time since the divorce, Maryellen feels she can heal the pain of her previous broken marriage. She understood that it was the past that kept them apart. By the very beginning they were drawn to each other, but the secrets they tried to keep to themselves were almost separated from each other.

"I"m not someone who"s ever had money," Jon muttered.

Maryellen brought his hand to her lips. “I think being your wife is the greatest happiness in my life. Before I met you, I was also in a prison - a prison of my own making." It sounded fancy, but every word had come from the depths of Maryellen"s heart.

Maryellen"s smile radiated throughout the kitchen, and she wrapped her arms around Jon and performed her performance in his face. “The truth is, I can’t wait to share the rest with you.”

Jon hugged his lover tightly, a sigh running through his chest. "I don"t think, what"s wrong with living here until we get married?"

“I would love to move to your house right away so we can be together, but I want to wait.” Maryellen has made too many mistakes, and with this marriage, she will make things right. She wants their wedding to be special.

"We have a child together, so I want us to solve the problem together ...", Jon Lac"s voice went away.

She tilted her head to look at him, not knowing how to introduce her crush. "Are you sad that I did?"

“Yes, but I can wait if that makes sense to you.”

Maryellen nodded and went up to Jon"s environment. She wants to show him that she appreciates his patience. Jon immediately reached into her hair and tied himself to her lips. Sensing the longing and passion in him, Maryellen"s resolve sagged. This feeling is new and exciting. At all times in them burned an uncontrollable faith and desire for each other.

Suddenly Katie cried from the bedroom in the house. Jon sighed and left the environment.

Maryellen ran to room Katie, she stood up first and raised her arms to meet her mother. Maryellen cleaned, after changing Katie"s diaper, took her to the kitchen and sat her on the high chair. Juices are available and cakes are waiting for you.

Just fell asleep, so Katie immediately picked up the water bottle and brought it up. The girl drank it down and put the tray back to normal.

“Every time he saw the image shrink, Jon said and sat down to look at Katie. "You are daddy"s little girl, aren"t you?"

Katie grinned at Jon. Jon took the camera from the table and took pictures of his daughter in quick succession.

"Jon". Maryellen laughed bitterly. He is a person who makes others unable to refuse. When he collaborated with Maryellen"s gallery on Harbor Street, he asked her out dozens of times, but Maryellen turned down all his invitations. At that time, she didn"t want any men in her life. But then she couldn"t get back to Jon and soon she was stunned when she found out she was pregnant. She tries everything to get Jon out of the child"s life, as well as her life again. Like so many other women, she chose to be a single mother. It wasn"t until Katie was born that Maryellen realized how much her daughter needed. More than that, she herself also wants and Jon to raise her daughter with her. But I"m near all the time back to should too complex. Although he loves Katie very much, but because of the past default, Jon does not want to have much to do with his daughter. However, all the storms stayed behind them.

After taking pictures of Katie, Jon started taking pictures of Maryellen. She didn"t have time to respond, but he had already taken a few pictures. In the past, when she saw him point the camera at her, she often suggested because she felt elevated, but now she was no longer shy. She trusted him and let him point her default Nikon lens at her, no matter how ugly she looked back then. Jon is always comfortable behind the camera. Through the image, he shows his own personality and emotional ladder.

“I want you and Katie back with me as soon as possible,” Jon said, rewinding the film and taking the reel out of the camera.

"Will not be long. Just two more weeks."

Jon code seemed to want to argue with her, but he stopped. “We have waited a long time. He didn"t want another two weeks to make him tired again. "

“Waiting will make you twice as excited.”

He said something she couldn"t hear clearly. However, she could guess what he said, and that made her unable to help but laugh.

“I think I can ask Pastor Flemming to do the Mass.”

Maryellen didn"t go to church very often, but her mother"s best friend, Olivia Lockhart, married her uncle Jack Griffin as a teacher at the Wedding Executive Board. Maryellen found the ceremony touching and poignant. “Lockhart Appraisal - or Griffin, did he suggest the Flemming pastors perform his wedding?”.

"She uses both names," Maryellen replied. "It"s true that Miss Olivia suggested that to me."

Jon nodded.

“I… I like a church wedding.” Olivia has been a family person for a long time, and she has provided a lot of helpful advice. But Maryellen decided not to hold her wedding as usual. When she said her oath, she was swearing to herself, vowing before God and to everyone that she would love Jon for the rest of her life.

Jon narrowed his eyes. “You want to have a wedding in a church? Are you sure? "

“At church or maybe at your house, is that okay?” Jon inherited the land from his grandfather and built on it a beautiful two-story house. The site overlooks the Puget Sound and is built with Mount Rainier.

“Great,” he said. "What about the wedding party?"

"Stay at my house too." Suddenly she wondered if she had answered too much in Jon. “I don"t think I have many guests, there will only be family and a few friends. All we need is a wedding cake and champagne. If it is convenient to save money, we will organize it outdoors." With flowers blooming in the grounds and many other flowers in bloom, these spots would be perfect for their wedding.

He nodded. “Perhaps we will invite everyone to add some deli. I"ll have it ready a day or two before that."

"Jon...".

“One of his people could take pictures for us but he wanted to do it himself.”

Maryellen saw that Jon seemed very excited about their wedding. “Can we arrange everything within two weeks?” she asked.

Jon replied excitedly. "Of course I have". And to Maryellen"s smile, he added.

"What more can I ask for?"

Maryellen has another request, but she does not know and does not know if there is a subject. "What"s up?". He asked warily as if sensing her reticence.

“Invite customers…”

"How many people are you planning?"

“Not a client invitation. Mom and sister only have a few friends, but there are two people who want to invite but don"t know if he agrees? "

Katie started crying and dropped the cup on the tray. Jon kisses the cartoon Maryellen. “You know it"s almost impossible for me to change anything about you. Who do you want to invite? ".
