Paper Hearts

21

It's her marriage in three days. Her husband is in the army. She is more than excited about her future dreams although he is still at job for one more day and she probably hasn't even talked to him since he was last gone. He'd be home next day to accompany her for the rituals though.

Sitting in her wedding dress near the church she waits for her groom. He comes exactly on time, all decorated in a coffin.

Tears shape into oceans.
