  This story is fictional. I would like to stress that it is not based on a true story or has any purposeful resemblance to any real occurrences. The topic of a child bride is something very serious, but I do not have a lot of knowledge on it so I would like to make it clear that this story is not to be taken as accurate or correct. The information from this story is completely made up and any accuracy is 100% accidental.
  
  I am not trying to offend anyone by writing a story about this. I have recently been reading a book about this and it sparked some thoughts. I am not trying to be rude to anyone who has anymore knowledge about this sort of topic because I will admit I don't have a lot about it.
  
  There are some topics that may be seen as concerning to some. If it is a topic you feel uncomfortable with, then please stop reading. I will give advanced warnings when anything unusual may happen in detail prior to the posted chapter.

The cover for this story was made by @DannyFlinn.

Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home!
