Us Against All Odds (En)

Back to reality

To love someone is to care about their happiness more than their own, even if the choices that this implies for them are painful.

The next morning Carina had prepared breakfast for her wife. She had arrived in the kitchen.

- "I would have loved to shower with you this morning"

- "our showers are never just showers and you had to sleep, you work ten hours today. You should have gotten up at least half an hour before."

- "half an hour? Definitely."

-"Yes, there is foreplay, kissing, caressing ..." Said she as she approached the brunette.

-"It will be your reward tonight," she said, leaning in to kiss her.

- "it smells good"

- "I made you blueberry pancakes with maple syrup"

- "Hmmm... You take really good care of me"

-"I will make you do the right sport to eliminate them."

- "ooohh... I see" she said as she picked up the plate handed to her by her wife.

- "I was thinking about that donor thing"

-"What changed your mind? You want to ... Jack?"

- "noooo" made the Italian while shaking the shoulders. "I had thought that, I would like to do the insemination at the end of the year, or at the beginning of next year".

- "so soon?"

-"It's back to square one...?" Carina asked slightly worried. "After all you have recovered your memory..."

- "No, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. I just... I just feel like I'll never have enough time to have you all to myself, that's all. But you're right."

- "we could start looking at donors?"

- "yes, no problem, but with the wedding coming up, we still have things to prepare"

- "Isn't that what bridesmaids are for? Can't we give them things to do? Or hire a wedding planner?"

- "we're married now so you don't want to make an effort for our big wedding"

- "No Bambina, that's not what I mean, excuse me. But we already have the place, the officiant, the meal. What else is left? The DJ, the flowers, our outfits?"

- "we don't do announcements?"

- "our guests are always the same as last time and they all already know the new date"

- "I would like to have a card with the date as a souvenir... Current"

- "but you know that won't be our real wedding date on it? As we really got married yesterday".

- "amore..."

- "ok, ok, let's do a invitation"

- "it looks like it's bothering you..."

- "no, excuse me, I think I realize that... I... I can't say we're married... I have to keep this to myself, but I want to tell everyone I meet."

-"my love..." Maya got up and walked around the island to embrace her wife who was standing against the sink.

- "Maya we should have been married for over four months already!"

- "We're not doing so bad? We should have been married four months ago. I was in the hospital for over six months and two months ago I didn't even know about us."
