Finally I Got You

“Before the marriage, you did not ask if I was twenty-three, right.” The bearded man laughed.

“Well, then, can I have a request now?” Elena Costa held the marriage certificate against the bearded man, no matter what, in law, the two are considered husband and wife, right? So shouldn’t she be able to look at her husband’s face.

“No. Come on, wife, it was nine dollars for our marriage, it’s a little shabby, so I’ll buy you breakfast.” The bearded man smiled, and the image of him eating breakfast immediately popped into Elena Costa’s head.

“I’ll have the noodles.” Elena Costa kind of did it on purpose, she wanted to know how he was going to eat noodles with a full beard.

“OK, let’s go and have breakfast.” The bearded man readily agreed, and Elena Costa couldn’t believe it, they had only known each other for a few hours now, but they were already a couple.

Luckily, she hadn’t let her mother down. Though it was done for just nine dollars, she was married, so now she could rest easy.

Thinking about this red book that she could turn in, Elena Costa was in a good mood. She didn’t have to be forced to marry anymore, and she didn’t have to go and be looked at like a monkey anymore either. Dating, fuck that, she cursed in her heart.

“Can you show me your ID?” Elena Costa asked, undeterred, as she waited for breakfast.

During the marriage license process, she tried very hard to see his papers, but Fred Garner always pressed the photo on it, so she couldn’t see what a ‘stunning face’ he had.

“No, of course, if you want to be the fastest couple to get divorced, after the divorce, I can consider showing you a glimpse.” Fred Garner seemed to eat up Elena Costa, and surprisingly smiled badly.

“You regret it?” Elena Costa looked at Fred Garner in a daze, her mind suddenly going blank.

Although this marriage certificate was received on impulse, she did not think much about it. Even if he wants to divorce, she had to have her mom see it, and believe it, before he can leave, otherwise this marriage will be in vain.

“These two words, I have not thought of yet, but if you regret it, it’s not too late oh, little girl.” Fred Garner deliberately looked Elena up and down with ‘lewd’ eyes, looking at her uncomfortable.

“No, after dinner later, can you accompany me back home?” Elena Costa looked at Fred Garner actually hesitating.

Taking him back like this would definitely get him swept off his feet, but asking him to go and change his face seemed a bit forced.

“Sure, but there’s one thing, at best I’ll go wash my face and change my clothes.” Fred Garner could see her difficulty, but he wasn’t about to make any changes for this strange wife.

“Then let’s forget it.” Elena Costa didn’t mean to look down on him, it was just that this time, as you can imagine, Mom must have been on a rampage, and her original plan to run away would have been changed to an open and honest confrontation.

Fred Garner didn’t say anything else, he didn’t mean to blame her, usually normal people would give this kind of expression, so he didn’t explain, just that he was inexplicably a little angry. He was thinking, if she had hit someone else, or a cripple, or an old man, she would not have married?

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and suddenly he had too many thoughts about this freshly minted wife, and had a desire for her, to understand her, to protect her.

While eating breakfast, Fred Garner’s eyes always rested on Elena, making her extremely uncomfortable and wanting only to escape quickly.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
