The day we wanted, the feeling of excitement, and anxiety came up. That's because today is our wedding and I feel very anxious and nervous. We dressed up at my parents' house because the groom's tradition was not to see the bride before the wedding.
Karin helped me get dressed. My hair has been repaired with an elegant updo adorned with tiny silver hair jewelry. My makeup is in natural light.
Karin practically put every outfit including that dress on me. He's the one who wears earrings and also wears my necklace and Alisa, the sweetest angel who helps me wear shoes.
To capture that moment, I've recorded everything we did before the wedding started. So that I can see it in the years to come. Aleah and Karin fuss over their makeup, Joy and Ashley fuss over their hair. Alshley also fussed over the dress while I fuss over everything. I want to make sure I look good. Mom and Dad finally took us out of the house and into the car. Then we went down, Karin, Alisa, and I rode with dad while Ashley, Aleah, and Joy rode with mom.
By the time we had reached the area where the wedding was supposed to be held, I could not stop trembling. We have decided to have a wedding at a small resort right near the beach and then we will move to the recipe area which is one of the halls in the resort.
"You nervous?" Karin said with a little laugh.
"You're scaring me, Karin." I'm laughing a little. "I forgot that almost all of my family and friends plus David were invited."
"It's gonna be a happy time." Dad said to me with a smile. "Are you ready, son?"
"Not really, but now it's too late to get out."
I was so worried that my dad drove me down the aisle. Consent and joy were evident to David as he met me halfway through and we both walked towards the altar. The insides of my body trembled as the priest performed the wedding ceremony, the vows were uttered, and finally officially me and David were legal as husband and wife partners.
I was so happy when the wedding ceremony was over and it was time to move on to the reception. That means I've officially become Mrs David.
All this time, I've been going to people's weddings, and I had absolutely no idea that this was how the bride and groom felt after marriage. Standing there with everyone, both with family and friends, and sitting in the audience watching you, is really stressful.
The wedding party was really beautiful. David's brother, wearing a green vest along with a green tie and a white shirt with black trousers and a jacket. The groom's escort is his friend Zach, Jefri and his cousin Kiran who wear a pink vest and tie. David himself chose a simple gray suit, and looked gallant.
"Are you happy?" David asked as we hugged each other that night.
"Yes, I'm happy." I smiled at him. "More than anything. Are you happy?"
"More than you can imagine." David responded.
Today is definitely without a doubt, one of the most beautiful days of my life.
After our wedding, David took a day off work so we could honeymoon. Even though it was only a few days, I believed that a week-long honeymoon was better than no honeymoon at all. We also had fun with that relatively short honeymoon. David and I went to Jeju. The island is truly amazing and beautiful. Most of the week we spent time in Bali by visiting various resorts and beaches.
Finally, our weekend was over, and I got sick. David thinks that maybe it's because of the new food factor I'm eating. I was forced to tell her that I was indeed going through some trouble during this past month. As I told her my symptoms, her face practically became shocked and tense. I didn't understand why she reacted that way until she told me to do a pregnancy test. Of course I told her I wasn't pregnant, I was still in my monthly cycle, I was taking pills and had a pregnancy test. As David did, previous tests also said it was negative. I told her about the pills and how they made me sick so I decided that I would stop taking them. David agreed with me and I felt much better after about a week of not taking the pill, and proved that I was allergic to the Pill.
Shortly thereafter David suggested trying a different method of contraception. I wasn't ready for that idea. I just stopped taking the pill for a week and already feel better, I still want to wait a while before I go back to try another contraceptive. I could find something David and I had never discussed before. My refusal to immediately agree to try another method of contraception immediately almost led to a quarrel between me and David.
Because it turns out, I just found out David doesn't want any more kids.
David seriously doesn't want any more children. Because when I asked her, she replied that she felt like she was getting older and didn't want to anymore. I knew this would cause trouble between us. He already had two children, so it would be best if he didn't have any more. But, I was young, and although I was not ready to be a mother yet, I wanted to have my own child someday. I disagree with him this time. He should have told me this from the beginning, although I could talk about it as well.
That disagreement really caused tension between us. It really frustrated me because we had just been married for a month, as a newly married family, we should be very happy and not we had any problems. All the problems we had, made me very emotional and upset. I started to feel sick again. Instead of letting David know, I decided to go to another doctor. I thought it would be better to see a doctor who wasn't my husband.
