25 Years Later

Beauty walked in the same labyrinth garden where they were wed but with no tent. They celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary.

Beauty gave birth first to identical twin sons and then to a daughter five years later.

This time, she walked alone while her aged parents sat at the front with their grandchildren. White-haired Clyde sat beside his granddaughter.

She was still wearing the same wedding gown but went through the seamstress' hands to make wider sides.

Her sight went directly to the altar where bearded Clarence stood wearing the same black unexpected wedding outfit but the coat and trousers had have gone through the tailor as well. Her heart longed for him more. He was the man she gave her heart and love forever.

Their facial features hadn't changed much, only some sign of mid-forties maturity.

Their smiles were radiant.
