Dreams and Reality
prologue
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in a want of a wife.
Or love. Remembering this, Mary smiled. This goes to show that even Mother, to some degree one may add, can at times be correct; no matter how nonsensical her "theories" at times may seem. For this day was the fine day her sisters were getting married. Married to the gentlemen they were ardently in love with. Mary sighed, as she watched her sisters take their vow.
Some things were not just meant to be. Not everyone falls in love and not everyone is fortitious enough to watch their dreams turn into reality.
Little did she know what were the thoughts of her sister beside her.
Miss Catherine Bennet, it is high time to prove to your family that you are not like Lydia. They think you are silly and not witty like is the time to show you can be smart and beautiful. Soon you will see yourself standing there with a husband. You will show Lydia what is the right way to get a husband. Much better than her's or my name is not Miss Catherine Bennet!
The grooms with their brides moved to their separate carriages to proceed to their wedding breakfast. As Mr Darcy leaned towards Elizabeth to gently kiss her cheek and whisper a word of love, both sisters had a thought, "Maybe, chances are, dreams do turn into reality."
