"Did he just call me stupid?" Michaela asked.
"You are marrying him," Samuel pointed out.
"Yes," Marcus snapped.
"Sistah, are you sure about dis?"
"Yes."
"Well, then kiss her and I don't wanna see any tongue."
"Close your eyes then," Marcus said, pulling Michaela to him.
As usual, she melted into his arms and everything faded away. She was home. It was perfect.
