Myra's POV

I can almost piss due to the nervousness. My whole body was shaking. I could loudly hear my heartbeat. I've heard a song play. It signaled the opening of the church door.

Only fools rush in

I smiled at the Photographer in front of me. When he left I started walking towards mom.

"Oh, my daughter's so beautiful," she said. I wrapped my hand around her arm.

We started walking.

But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?

I just stared at John whose smile was now sky-high near the altar. I want to cry. My heart is so happy although I'm nervous because there are so many people now.

to love her, to honor her,

to comfort her,

and to keep her in sickness and in health,
