"... In twenty days, I'm going to be someone else's husband. Don't you want to be alone with me during these twenty days? Just us, no one else..."
Emma Benson's red lips trembled slightly, her heart sinking inch by inch. Yes, he was right. In twenty days, he would be Minnie Sutton's husband, and the time left for them to be alone together was running short.
"Okay..." With her eyes sore and reddened, Emma wrapped her arms around his neck, her body trembling, "Okay, let's go!"
Let's leave, before the wedding. She would allow herself to indulge one more time, to be with him alone, no matter where they went.
Walter Schmidt's face lit up with joy. He smiled and immediately picked her up, without delaying a second longer, and walked into the bathroom to change clothes...
