Sarah smiled very broadly as she slowly started to get close to Michael with tears in her eyes. In just a moment, she would be near the man.
As they grew closer, Sarah finally stopped walking.
This made the twins feel confused because they had walked but their Mommy just stood still. They then turned at the same time to ask why Sarah stopped.
However, Sarah ignored them and turned to Steve who was still walking beside her even though Raphael was still between them.
Steve immediately understood without Sarah needing to say anything to him. This was the end for him to accompany the bride.
He then changed his body position to face Sarah and opened his arms wide to hug her.
"Be happy!" Steve whispered softly into Sarah's ear. He knew that she deserved it after the hardships she had gone through. Steve knows best how difficult Sarah's life was in the past.
Sarah just smiled at that while trying to hold back her tears from falling.
Steve then stepped closer to Michael to shake hands and half hug Michael.
"Sarah deserves to be happy. You have to make her happy," Steve said briefly with a smile.
Michael just nodded hearing that. Without the need for Steve to tell him, he would definitely do just that.
Steve then immediately turned around and nimbly hugged Gabriel with one arm, then lifted Raphael with the other.
The task of the two kids has been completed.
The twins, who were about to protest, laughed because Steve lifted them up like that. It felt like being on a ride, but unfortunately the ride only lasted a moment as the two of them immediately returned to their seats beside Teresa.
The old woman who already had a lot of experience with little kids then used her persuasion technique to order the twins to stay seated.
Steve then immediately joined his wife with eyes that were still filled with tears because of the emotions that were so overwhelming.
Suddenly, Steve felt a very strange feeling. He thought about what if the same thing happened a few tens of years in the future? When he has to walk with another woman down the aisle, but this time it's his daughter?
Steve's eyes suddenly started to well up with tears when he saw his daughter.
"Why? What's wrong with you? Why are you crying?" asked Anna with a laugh and then took a tissue from her bag.
"Ah no, I just suddenly thought about what will happen in the future," Steve said then took the tissue his wife gave him. "I will not send Sienna to marry!" he continued firmly.
Anna just laughed at that. As a mother, she of course prefers Sienna to date a lot of men so she knows how to judge a good man or not. Looks like, in the future it will be difficult for her daughter to date.
She couldn't wait for their days to come in the future, but for now, she would focus on seeing her friend's wedding.
"You really look very beautiful," said Michael with a big smile when he saw Sarah was standing in front of him. His eyes still looked tearing up.
She smiled. "Don't cry. You will make me cry," Sarah said then wiped the tears that would come out of Michael's eyes.
"We are here to witness and celebrate the wedding of Michael Collins and Sarah Smith. It is an honor for me to officiate this wedding," said the man who had been standing beside Michael, starting this wedding ceremony.
Michael and Sarah then held hands and looked at the man.
"Michael," the man called, then looked at Michael.
"Do you promise to love Sarah Smith as a husband, and accept Sarah Smith as your wife, in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, so long as you both shall live?" asked the man.
"I do!" Michael answered firmly.
The man then glanced at Sarah.
"Sarah, do you promise to love Michael Collins as a wife, and accept Michael Collins as your husband, in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, so long as you both shall live?" asked the man.
"I do!" Sarah replied, smiling sweetly and trying to hold back her tears
"Since the two of you have promised and committed to each other, now we will witness your wedding vows," said the man
"Would you like to start first?" Michael asked with a smile, allowing Sarah to start first.
"You should start first," Sarah said with a smile.
Michael nodded and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
"As you all know, this is not our first marriage," Michael said with a smile. "Maybe at that time we were both too young, so in the end we separated. However, as the saying goes that your soulmate is gonna find you, the two of us met again like fate."
"You are my soulmate, Sarah. So that's why, I, Michael Collins, swear to accept you, Sarah Smith, as my wife, and also the mother of my kids," said Michael with a steady look.
"I promise I will always love you until death do us part, will continue to accompany you until death do us part, will always make you happy, and most importantly, will always communicate with you and will not do anything that makes you disappointed in me."
Michael said that firmly while smiling widely. He didn't write down what he was going to say at all because he wanted to keep it as natural as possible.
Well… he could speak in front of many people without even reading a piece of paper, so it was easy for him.
"Ohh... I'm going to cry, excuse me," said Sarah and then wiped away the tears that finally came out when she heard Michael's vows.
Sarah then took a deep breath, tried to calm herself and took out the paper containing her wedding vows from her dress pocket.
She had indeed tried to memorize it, but her current condition was not conducive to doing so, so she decided to read it.
"I, Sarah Smith, swear that I will take you, Michael Collins, as my husband. I will continue to be by your side in joy and sorrow, will continue to love you until death do us part, will open up to you and talk to you so that what has happened in the past will not happen again," Sarah replied, smiling at Michael.
Michael returned the smile then wiped Sarah's tears that were running down her cheeks.
"Then to make your marriage official. We will witness the exchange of rings, as a symbol that you two have become husband and wife," said the man.
Michael then took out the ring that was in his trouser pocket and put it on Sarah, as well as Sarah who put the ring on Michael's finger.
"By the authority vested in me by the British State, I now pronounce you two as husband and wife," said the man after the exchange of rings had been completed.
"Michael, you can kiss your bride," the man said excitedly and then walked away from there.
Michael then immediately smiled and put his hand on Sarah's waist and kissed her deeply on the lips.
While Sarah's hands hugged Michael's neck and kissed the lips of the man who was now her husband.
The invited guests immediately clapped when they saw this, enlivening the atmosphere there, until finally…
"NO!"
The scream caused everyone to immediately stop clapping to see what was going on. Is there anyone who wants to stop this wedding? They heard that it was a man's voice.
The people then tried to find who shouted it.
While the newly married couple immediately stopped kissing when they heard that voice that sounded very familiar.
"Daddy, you can't kiss Mommy! You made Mommy cry! Bad daddy!" Raphael said angrily, who was now near them, hitting his father's thigh.
Seeing the culprit who said that, the people couldn't help but laugh.
"Ohh... Mommy doesn't cry because Mommy's sad, Rapa," said Sarah, smiling broadly at her son.
Seeing that his brother had left, Gabriel also came over to his Mommy and Daddy.
"I want to be hugged too! We should have a group hug!" Gabriel said, opening his hands, wanting to join them.
Michael just sighed hearing that. Couldn't his kids just leave him alone with their Mommy?
However, he ended up picking up Gabriel.
Sarah also immediately picks up Raphael and the four of them hug together then do a group kiss.
The smile never left Sarah's face. Today, she is truly happy.
***
After the wedding ceremony was over, Michael and Sarah went straight to the hotel in Michael's car which was decorated as a wedding car.
Michael deliberately entrusted the twins to his parents because today he wanted to be alone with his wife without a disturbance.
"Wait a moment!" Sarah suddenly held Michael's body when he wanted to kiss her.
"I have a present for you," Sarah said with a smile and then went to get a small box that was in her bag.
Michael's forehead creased at that. His face looks confused.
Present? Why did Sarah want to give him a present?
"This!" Sarah said then gave the small box with a smile on her face.
Michael took it with a confused expression, but he opened it anyway to see what was inside.
Michael's face grew even more confused as he looked at the contents. It's a thermometer.
"Are you sick?" Michael asked, looking confused at Sarah and then at the thermometer. However, after he looked at it, the thermometer was a bit strange. Why is it only showing two lines and no temperature number?
