Dedication:
From hate to love
Step done. I do not see exit.
"Forget me, and do not call."
"Say," I love! "-" I hate! "
I myself have sinned against you,
I burned the bridge myself and the gate is closed.
I made my choice and by you,
I'm, in the best, forgotten!
The problem is not how to connect Neil and Candy, the problem is,
how to do it believable and beautiful.

June 19, 1917, the church of Andrew family,
Summer Villa Lakewood.
Red carpet, one step, another. Suffocating smell of lilies and roses. Everything stinks by these damn flowers! The intense gaze of onlookers and visitors, attracted by rumors of a possible scandal. Red carpet, one step, another. Oh, what a humiliation! People, even more than then, at the announcement of the engagement! Candy holding his arm, her hand is trembling. Step, another. Of course, more people - because today it is their wedding! Oh, what a humiliation! Already you can see the face of the priest, already visible wrinkles on his face. In a blur faces around for a second he can see his mother and sister. Step, another. "Candice White Audrew, do you agree to take Neil Legan as a husband?" She says "No!", Her clear voice reaches the vaults of the church and crumble in the buzz of voices, those vultures around them. Oh, what a humiliation! Red carpet, one step, another ...
"Neil Legan, do you agree to marry Candice White Andrew?"
"Yes."
The voice does not tremble, but Neil feels how sweat creeping on the skin. The moment Candy's answer getting closer and closer. Oh, what a humiliation!
"... To be with her in sickness and in health, in joy and sorrow ..."
The monotonous voice of the priest, strained silence around them, and a terrible smell of stuffy damned flowers.
"I agree."
"Candice White Audrew, do you agree to take Neil Legan as a husband?"
There was no a long painful pause, which seemed like an eternity, during which all present held their breath. Candice White Audrew said at once:
"Yes."
The other things did not matter
