They were different people with different lives from different countries. Yet they had known each other. For over a year now, they had exchanges letters. Soon they would finally meet and be married.
Her name was Molly Brouwn. She was a quiet girl from the country with a simple life. She was bored with it and wanted to escape. Everyday she grew more tiered of her town, she knew there was nothing here for her. A year ago an advertisement for love had caught her attention, a bridal service seeking women who were willing to put the past behind them to find love beyond the boarders of their small town, which sounded like a good ideal. They had set her up with Daren Shields. After exchanging a few letters, she knew he was the one. They continued to send letters back and forth, which eventually led up to this day.
"You are completely out of your mind!" Andrew shouted to his friend Darien. "Are telling me, that you are marring a girl you have never met before?"
"Well, she arrives in the morning and I shall meet her, then we get married tomorrow."
"Do you even know what she looks like?" Andrew asked. Daren handed him a picture of the girl.
"What! She is not even beautiful." She had short brown hair and worn a long grey dress. She was also wearing black boots.
"Well, I am not marring for looks, I need a wife. Isn't that what you're always saying?"
"You are insane." He knew there was no talking his friend out of this. He left his huge mansion to go to the port. She would be arriving into the country soon. When he got there, there were a lot of people all over the place. He waited until the boats arrived. When the boats did arrive, he was unable to find her. However, a beautiful young girl with long blonde hair walked right up to him.
"Mr. Shields?" She asked.
Confused, he answered, "Yes"
"It is I, Molly Brouwn."
"Huh, but…."
"I am sorry if I had deceived you. You see, I was afraid that if you had seen my real picture that you would only want me for my looks, I had to be sure so I sent someone else's picture."
