Wedding (3)

Melanda took the ring from the bridesmaid and looked at Mike. She said affectionately,

"Mike, you've always been a dream since our children. I've always wanted to know what it would be like to be loved by you. When I first saw you, when I saw your smile, I had already fallen for you."

"I remember telling myself that one day, I would marry this boy. One day, I would be his princess. Then today, I woke up and realized that it was today." She paused, because her voice was choked and she could barely continue.

There were tears in Mike's eyes too. Everyone present was the same.

"You are my today, and my future. If I had a choice, I would choose you in my next life, and even if I had a hundred lifetimes, I would choose you. I know our journey isn't perfect, but I will persevere with you to the end."

She stopped and looked at Mike affectionately.
