He sat there unable to react, surprised and shocked. She went on explaining to him all the events that had let to it and why she was marrying him. He hardly said a word, it was quiet overwhelming and it felt like he was watching some movie, unable to believe it was actually someone’s real life story. It was too much information, he wasn’t even sure if he wanted to know more, but he was listening, understanding, and was slowly starting to get worried. She stopped and looked at him, he had a blank look, with wide spread eyes, she smiled and turned his face towards her and shook him a little. He blinked his eyes and exclaimed, “Wow!” That kind of summarized his expression and she smiled and took his hand in hers and said, “I have a favor to ask you” and paused.
He turned towards her wondering what it could be, thinking that she had and will have anything money could buy, and what he could do to help her in any way. His forehead wore a question still trying to comprehend what she had told him earlier; yet curious to find out what she was going to ask. She opened her bag and took something out, and said, “Something borrowed, something blue….. well I seem to have almost everything covered, except someone to walk me down the aisle.”
“I was hoping if you would do me the honor of walking me down the aisle. I know you are not in par with this, but it would mean a lot to me if you would do it”. He smiled and nodded his head indicating that he will be there and will walk her down the aisle. She was so delighted; she hugged him and kissed him on his lips as if she were a child who escaped an expected punishment and in turn got a candy! She immediately called someone over the phone and made an appointment and gave them his address. He was not sure what was going on and was waiting for her to fill him in, with a hazy look in his face.
