Greetings
Her face lightened up as her brother in law hugged her, kissed her and handed her a small, well packaged gift. She loved her brother in law, but as much as she did, she always felt the need to defend her thoughts, and go against his rules.
It was that day when her relatives arrived to greet her, and spend some quality family time. She was happy, but she was still waiting. Waiting for something to happen, and throughout the day, nothing had happened.
Her day was joyous, but also tiring, exhausting and a little upsetting. She hadn't forgotten everything, everything that happened that day, yet she sighed.
She exhaled deeply, changed into a pink midriff, short shorts, let down her long locks, and covered herself underneath the comforter without taking the ring off.
And she slept. Slept comfortably, believing that the promise given to her would never come true, and so continually telling herself over and over not to get her hopes up high, she descended into a slumber.
She turned to her pillow, hugging it as she slept and squirmed.
She felt cold hands explore her waist area; the hands gripped her waist, and held tightly. She felt breath fall on her cheeks, quietly and slowly blowing her hair, feeling of someone's hair touching her skin and finally felt a large hand, holding her small ones.
She rotated, her eyes still closed, her face facing the ceiling as her head slightly turned towards the man. The figure stroke her cheeks gently and lightly, her light skin so soft, so beautiful, so emotional.
He held her waist tighter, resting his head on an extra pillow, grabbed the thick blanket in the far side of the bed, and covered himself with it, lying down beside her, to sink into a slumber.
Unknowingly, her meeting finally arrived.
