23. fairy tale ending

It was perfect, from the food to the way the lovers looked into each others eyes. Who could've asked for a better wedding?

Friends and some family gathered up to express their happiness for the newly wed couple, each leaving a gift as a show of gratitude for being invited. The couple just nodded and accepted each one, setting each aside to be put to use later.

The woman sighed as the last guest walked away, setting the block of knives down. Her husband wrapped his arm around her, silently comforting her. She leaned into it, her slender frame a contrast to his burliness.

"It's come true hasn't it?"

"You mean our dream of being together? Yes, it has." He wrapped his other arm around her, cradling her in his bulk.

She closed her eyes, murmuring, "There's just one thing more to make this perfect..." She pushed herself further into his embrace, being supported only by his arms.

"Come. We'll make that child of your dreams." With that he lifted her, his dear Izumi, into their house.
