The marriage fever
March 16, 2007 |
A few months ago I went to work and B was surprisingly happy. We went to smoke and he told me that he finally made the big step: he asked C to marry him and… she said “Yes“. I remember him saying “I’m getting married, I’m getting married” and me being very happy for him.
But something was not right. Bruno asked me to marry him quite a few times before and I always thought he was just joking, I actually asked him to stop asking me that because it made me think he was fooling around. None of my friends got married before, just a few neighbours from my grandma’s village. I didn’t have it so close before, so in that moment I saw it possible. What did I do? Well, respond to all the questions that Bruno ever asked with another question: “Would you marry me?“. He said “Yes“, but he was quite concerned about my sudden decision to marry him after so many times he asked me to. He never got to know the real reasons that made me take that decision. I guess he will know it now.
After a few months V decided finally to ask A to marry him. I remember the day he told me about the Sunday with his in-laws: A’s mother crying, V got sooo scared until he finally found out that those were tears of happiness. They will get married this summer. If I don’t get to see you and congratulate you, please forgive me; it will surely be because of my tummy’s size.
Then A told me she was getting married with A(let’s call him A2 in order to make the difference). I knew A for two years or more, and then I knew A2. I remember we went together to see Star Wars 3. Laura fell asleep anyway (DON’T BLAME ME FOR FALLING ASLEEP WITH ICE AGE). I would never expected them to get married so soon, but I admin it made me happy to hear that. What does not make me very happy is the fact that I won’t be able to come to see you. Sorry guys, but next year we can organize the big wedding, a remember session of all the weddings with tons of alcohol.
Finally, C decided to marry M. That is also one thing I could expect, I was actually sure it would happen one day, but I wouldn’t expect it so soon. I’m very happy for you and I hope you will decide to have a baby soon. Let it be a girl please, my son has to marry someone trustable.
Cl surprised me the other day. He finally decided to stop the search and go live with the one that isn’t caught by his aggresive antispam filters. I see him really happy, and I would like this to last. So, “The riiiiing, the riiiing, the riiiing“, I try to whisper. “Hurray, hurray” they all sing. Congrats, or well… for you in Spanish right? Felicidadeeeeeeeeeeeees!!! La luna de miel en Barcelona, eh?
Congratulations to all of you and long live the marriage fever!!!

I wasn’t fooling around!! But I never thought that you were asking me to marry you just because B was getting married to… >.<
At least you realised that I really wasn’t fooling around. See… now we’re pregnant! :D
Congratulations to all!
