Jenny could not trust it turned into subsequently her wedding ceremony day. After years of dating Mark, they had been eventually going to tie the knot. She gazed at herself in the replicate, her white wedding ceremony dress hugging her curves perfectly. Her hair changed into styled in gentle curls with a veil pinned at the lower back.

Oh honey, you look beautiful! her mother stated, dabbing her eyes with a tissue.

There became a knock on the door. Everyone first rate? her dad peeked in.

Come in dad, Jenny laughed. Her dad walked in, his eyes welling up at the sight of his daughter in her wedding ceremony get dressed.

Sweetheart, you look clearly lovely, he stated, giving her a cautious hug, cautious of messing up her get dressed. I can not consider my little girl is all grown up and getting married.

Oh dad, do not begin crying, you may make me cry! Jenny said, choking back tears.

Mark is one fortunate man. You take correct care of her son, her dad stated critically.

Mark turned into status at the front of the church, fidgeting along with his bowtie. His groomsmen were coated up behind him.

Nervous? his great man Mike asked with a smirk.

A little, Mark admitted. Mostly excited. I can not wait to look Jenny stroll down the aisle.

The organist started gambling the bridal march. All heads became to peer Jenny gliding down the aisle on her father's arm. Mark's breath stuck in his chest. She looked without a doubt radiant.

Jenny's eyes locked with Mark's. He become so handsome in his black tuxedo. She felt like the luckiest lady alive.

Jenny's father gave her a kiss at the cheek earlier than putting her hand in Mark's. They grew to become to face the officiant.

As the rite advanced, Mark and Jenny exchanged heartfelt vows promising to love every other for all time. There wasn't a dry eye within the church.

I now pronounce you husband and wife! You can also kiss the bride! the officiant announced fortuitously.

Mark swept Jenny into his fingers and gave her a deep, passionate kiss because the visitors cheered. They walked back off the aisle hand in hand, officially married.

At the reception, Mark and Jenny mingled with the guests, laughed and danced the night away. After reducing the cake and tossing the bouquet, it changed into time for his or her first dance as husband and spouse. They held every different near, swaying lightly to the tune. This turned into the exceptional day of their lives.

Ending number 1

A few years later...

Jenny rocked her newborn toddler, cooing softly to her daughter. Mark walked in, sparkling from paintings.

How are my stunning girls he requested, kissing Jenny at the top of her head.

We're doing outstanding. Little Sophie simply finished her feeding and is ready for daddy time, Jenny stated, carefully shifting the toddler to Mark's arms.

Mark seemed down at his daughter lovingly. He never imagined he may want to sense a lot pleasure.

I can't trust we made this ideal little human, he stated in awe.

Well I without a doubt couldn't have achieved it without you, Jenny winked.

Mark laughed as he took a seat inside the rocking chair. Sophie regarded up at him along with her big blue eyes as he rocked her to sleep, humming softly.

Jenny watched them with a heart full of love, considering how her life changed into even higher now than it became on her wedding ceremony day. Marrying Mark become the pleasant selection she ever made.

Ending number two

A few years later...

Jenny burst into tears as she watched Mark grab the remaining of his belongings and walk out the door. She couldn't consider this changed into happening.

Just six months ago, they had been blissfully glad, or so she thought. Then the late nights at paintings began. Mark grew distant, irritable. Jenny suspected he changed into having an affair but he denied it.

Finally she saw the proof on his smartphone - romantic texts to a coworker. Their marriage crumbled. Mark refused counseling. He said he didn't love her anymore and wanted a divorce.

Now right here Jenny changed into, on my own on what should were their 5th anniversary. She checked out her wedding ceremony photo and wondered how they drifted thus far aside.

Mark were given into the waiting automobile in which his new lady friend waited. He didn't appearance returned as he drove faraway from the lifestyles he as soon as shared with Jenny.

Jenny wiped her eyes and set her jaw. She refused to disintegrate. She changed into stronger than this. She won't have a husband anymore but she nonetheless had herself. She might get thru this.

Jenny took off her wedding ceremony ring and placed it gently in her rings box. It changed into time for a brand new bankruptcy.

What a rough and tough one for Jenny. Love and tears sometimes go hand in hand. It's so painful that she had to live her life without the love of her life, Mark.

Interesting story with two sides, in both cases not far from the reality we live, although I am left with a doubt, was it the birth of a girl that made the end different one from the other? Or rather the carelessness and lack of attention was what triggered a sad ending, but with something that I liked, Jenny did not collapse, she was deceived but her strength as a woman made her go on. Much food for thought
