Chapter 7

But better to focus on that than on the other thing—worrying that this wouldn’t be the only wedding she had. What if Bonnie didn’t survive her surgery and Tina found herself a widow at nineteen? She couldn’t imagine wearing that weird, antiquated, tragic word. And what if Bonnie did survive her surgery, but then she and Tina discovered that their marriage had been far too hasty after all? Yesterday in the hospital room, Tina hadn’t been able to imagine telling Bonnie anything but yes. Today, she couldn’t help wondering if they were setting themselves up for a different sort of tragedy down the road.
