Final chapter, "My bride, Ayumi"

	After through the hardship we have gone through this past 5 years, we are finally getting a proper marriage today. Ayumi's parent was against us being together, but now, noone can stop us from becoming one, they are gone now. They died in their burning house when Ayumi and I was running away from the town. The day they died, Ayumi cried for the whole day and shut herself in her room for 3 days. No matter how cruel they were to Ayumi, they are still her parents. 3 days after their deaths, right in the early morning, Ayumi called me over and said she is okay, no matter how I look at it, she loves her parent despite all the suffering they gave to her when she have faced when living with them.

"I'm Okay now..."

There's nothing I can do to answer her, so I hugged her, real tight between my arms. I try to comfort her not with words, but with action, 'don't worry'. As I hugged her, Ayumi began to cry again and let out her tears and scream. I take her inside her room. She told me all her feeling bout her parent. As I thought, Ayumi loves her parents no matter what. There must be a lot she want to do with her parents. She fell asleep right after crying for an hour. I lay her down in her bed, and sit down near her. Our love has been through a lot because of her parents, but they are still her parents no matter what. I look upon her face and wiped her tear.

"Father, mother...."

Few hours later, Ayumi woke up. She went silent for a couple of minute before she said to me,

"Let's get married"

I look at her worriedly

"Are you okay now?"
"Yeah, I'm okay now..."
"Let's get a breather, you need to calm your mind."
"Yeah", Ayumi smiled when she answered me.

I drives her to her favorite restaurant.

"I've set my mind, let's get married, this time, let's have a proper marriage"
"Not now, you need to get your mind calm first, you just have suffered a great loss"
"I don't want to waste anymore time"

I look at her, she is answering me with a very firm answer and expression.

"Okay, let's held a proper wedding this time."
"Yeah, let's this time, we will finally be together for true"

As the dinner is served, we talked about lots of things, from the moment we met each other, and the hardship we have went through. Looking back, everything has been quite a commotion because of us. But this time, we can finally be together without noone stopping us. The next whole month after that night, we prepared our wedding. And finally, the day has come.

"Ryoto, you should be going now."
"Yeah, thanks for everything bro."
"Don't mention it, just go to your bride, she is waiting for you."

Jun, my friend who have been supporting our relationship the whole time and my business partner now, smiled and me and push me from the back.

"Today it's about you two, don't mess it up."
"I won't."

As I run toward the wedding hall, I took out two rings from my pocket. The first ring, is my ring for Ayumi from our previous wedding in a small church with just a few of our friends, and another one is the ring I bought with the result of my effort to make Ayumi happy in the 5 years we was together. The ring from the previous wedding was thought to be gone thrown away by Ayumi's parents, but Jun found it for me, yesterday. I decided to take out the ring I bought for her, and put in the ring for our first wedding in the red box. After a while, I reached the bride's room. I took a deep breath before I open the door. As the doors creak open, there I saw my bride standing there, waiting for me.

"Ayumi"
"Ryoto"

We walk closer to each another. Looking at each another's face.

"Are you okay with me as your bride?"
"What are you talking now? You are the woman I've choosed, and in fact, I'm supposed to ask that question, to have such a beautiful thing in the world as my bride." I raised my right hand and put it on her left cheek.

"Thank you for loving me, Ryoto", She put her hands on my right hand as she lean her head on it.
"I've prepared the ring for today." I grabbed out the red box from my pocket.
"Gasp-, Ryoto, this is?"
"Jun managed to found it for me yesterday, he gave it to me this morning, I have prepared a ring as well for our wedding as well too, but I want to cherish those time back then, if you want, we can use this new ring instead of this one"
"No, it's okay, I also want to cherish our love", she shook her head and answered me back

-------

After I put the ring in her finger, the preacher continued his line.

"Now do you, Ryoto, take Ayumi to be your wedded wife? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health, remaining faithful to her as long as you both shall live?"

"I do"

"And you, Ayumi, do you take Ryoto to be your wedded husband? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health, remaining faithful to him as long as you both shall live?"

"I do"

"You may now kiss your bride"

"I love you"

"I love you too"

As we kissed, the crowd cheered.

Even though after through many hardships, our love never waver and we are now finally becoming one, our story is not over yet, in fact, this is yet another beginning to our story being together for the rest of our lives.

-The End-
