Chapter 7 Unital Rings

Sora's POV

The Next Day

I walked into the convenient store, and when I did, I spotted a familiar face.

"Hi Selphie", I greeted said person, who worked part time at the convenient store.

"Hi Sora", she greeted. "What brings you here?"

"Kairi sent me to get some things for dinner", I replied before holding up a shopping list.

And when I did...Selphie squealed so loudly that everybody in the store stared at her.

"Are you okay", I asked.

"Sorry", Selphie apologized. "It's just...you and Kairi have only been married for three days and you're already doing things like buying groceries for her. It's so romantic, I can't even!"

Before Selphie could continue to gush, she noticed something.

"Wait a minute", she started. "Show me your hands."

"Um...", I asked in confusion. "Why?"

"Just do it", Selphie commanded.

"Okay", I replied in defeat. "Okay!"

After I said this, I held out my hands and Selphie looked very closely at them.

"Where's your wedding ring", she asked.

"Um...", I started. "What wedding ring?"

"What", Selphie asked in shock.

Then...she started glaring daggers at me.

"Sora", she started in a frightening low voice. "Do you and Kairi not have wedding rings?"

"Huh", I asked in confusion. "What do you mean? Kairi does have a ring..."

And as soon as I said this...I got smacked in the side of the head with the broom Selphie was holding!

"Ow", I yelled out in pain before glaring at her. "What was that for?"

"What was that for", Selphie asked angrily. "That was for being an idiot!"

"What are you talking about", I asked Selphie angrily.

"The ring you got Kairi is an engagement ring you idiot", Selphie replied. "Not a wedding ring!"

"What's the difference", I asked.

And this resulted in me getting hit in the side of the head with the broom again!

"Ow", I yelled out in pain again.

"Okay", Selphie started as she took a deep breath. "I'm going to explain it to you since you obviously don't seem to get it."

"Please do", I pleaded as I rubbed the now hurting side of my face.

"An engagement ring is what a man gives to a women when he asks her to marry him", Selphie revealed. "A wedding ring is what both of them wear after they get married."

"Oh", I said in realization. "I didn't know that."

"How did you not know that", Selphie asked angrily.

"What", I asked in defense. "I didn't."

"Well", Selphie started. "You'd better fix it and get you and Kairi some wedding rings."

"Do we even need them", I asked.

"Of course", Selphie replied. "After all, you don't want guys flirting with your wife now do you?"

"What", I asked in shock.

"You don't have to worry about that if Kairi wears a wedding ring", Selphie stated.

"But", I started. "Won't the ring I gave Kairi do the same thing?"

"That thing you made her", Selphie asked. "Please."
