188 Last Minute Doubts?

After Lina left the table her voice could be heard from outside the dining room, desperately asking about the location of a bathroom. William politely excused himself and went after her.

He saw her disappear at the top of a tall staircase and a maid stood shocked, "Sir, is your bride okay?"

William didn't know why the maid was so concerned but he quickened his steps and caught a glimpse of Lina rushing to get to a bathroom at the end of the long corridor.

He shook the door handle but it was locked.

"Lina?" he called, "It's me, open up!"

Sounds of her panting came from behind the white door and he studied the carved details impatiently before rattling the handle again, "Open!" he demanded.

The door opened slowly and he found her pressing a huge wad of tissues against her face, "Wait," she said holding out her hand and flushing the toilet.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"Nothing," she spoke in a muffled voice from behind the handful of tissues.
