By the ending of that year the couple got wedded by the court and had a Christian marriage, she had always wanted this but the circumstances had forced them into only a traditional marriage but seeing herself in a wedding gown as she matched to the altar in the presence of family and friends was a dream come true.

Her family had also arrived from the village to attend the wedding, there stood her father, he was old and frail but he was happy, he had lived with a heart load of regret after making rash decisions in the lives of his children, he never thought he would experience this much happiness but seeing his daughters face glistening with happiness he only felt happier knowing he would die with one less guilt.

Her mother showed the most happiness, she also regretted that she wasn't there for her child during the times of trouble, she wasn't there when a child needed her mother the most but here she was now and that was all that mattered.

After the celebration of the day, the couple was left alone in each other's company,

"I am so glad we did this" he said to her,

"I feel so happy today and all because of you"

"I love you and you are all that matter to me, to tell the truth I never regretted what happened between us, what led us to this moment, I was always glad that I had you by my side, you are my strength and you are my motivation, what makes me move forward" he said.

She smiled, "I love you, more than you know, when others called us names and some said it was an erroneous mistake, I never saw it as a mistake, I only saw you, A man I love, A man who would never abandon me for the world, I am glad that we met, I am glad that we love"

They embraced each other, Immersed in the warmth of love and unquenchable passion.
