Mysterious Husband.

The fist binding ritual was done with everyone participating in it. 


Arashi and I were so happy that everyone was enjoying it. 


Now the other couples who had joined us have returned to their places while we stood before the priest. 


The priest nodded at Arashi and said, "I will be reciting the poems to give both of you the blessings of our goddess." 


The marriage rituals were about to end as the priest, Satoshi started to recite the poems in their ancient language while we stood before the tree, our hands tied to each other. Two of his subordinates came with long silk cloth. He took it and folded it while chanting and then placed one side of it on my shoulder and the other side was on Arashi's shoulder. 


He said, teasingly, "Make sure the cloth doesn't slip away." 


He smiled and said, "If it slips that means the marriage won't last long."
