Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to relax and followed her instincts. It couldn’t be that hard, after all. When she made it to the front at last, she moved to the side and finally dared to steal a glance at the guys. She stared at Markus, who looked incredibly handsome in a tux. Very sexy indeed.
Oh, my good Lord.
The two shared a quick smile before the minister started, and she tried her best to focus on the service. Tried her best to ignore the thumping in her head. Later that day, she found herself in the middle of the big wedding function. She leaned back into her chair as she scanned the venue, taking everything in. The official part of the reception was finally over, and a sense of tiredness overcame her as she relaxed some more. Of course, she had enjoyed the wedding ceremony, not to mention her immense pride to have been part of it, but she was glad that the formal part of the day was over. The photo session after church had dragged on because of the boys playing around so much, and although her headache had been relentless despite the medication she’d been taking, it’d been good letting go of some of the built-up tension
I admire her for sticking it out with a headache. I’d’ve been looking for an excuse to leave. (But then, I don’t like crowds and parties to begin with, so any excuse…)
Me too !! 🙂 And yes, me, too, again 🙂
Oh, it’s such a bummer she had a headache, but she made the best of it. Shows a lot about her character. 🙂
Thank you Teresa. Yes, she does have character indeed!
Oh I can SOOOO relate to her having that massive headache and persevering anyway. Been there, done that. Great snippet.
Oh Veronica. So sorry, you suffer from headaches too. They can be deliberating. Glad you enjoyed the snippet
