Take Me Away

"Our home." George emphasized, "I bought a new house in M City, which is quite close to your university. You can go home if you don't want to live in the staff apartment." "George, you are so sweet!" Moved by his words, Sophia leaned her body and rubbed against him, saying, "Since we are going home now, are you finally going to do that with me?"

"What? Why are you still thinking about that? Aren't you ashamed?" George sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Sophia. I'll leave after I send you home, and your parents are waiting for you at home. Your unreliable ideas can't be implemented for the time being." "What? Why?" Sophia snorted.

"Because I'm going to take you to the wedding tomorrow! Have you ever seen a bride and groom live together before the wedding? " George started the car.

"We can be the first one." Sophia grinned.

"But I don't want to..." George shrugged. "We're getting married tomorrow, and the wedding night is tomorrow night. And you have to get up early tomorrow morning to do your makeup. You don't have time."

Sophia pursed her lips and said in a spoiled tone, "Then we have a deal. You have to sleep with me tomorrow night."

George smiled reluctantly. He didn't deny it.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Good morning! Welcome to Mr. George and Ms. Sophia's wedding! On this big day of celebration, I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to you on behalf of the new couple."

The next morning, in a hotel in M City, George and Sophia's wedding ceremony began in the rosy light. The lobby was decorated to be romantic and warm with colorful balloons and white roses. The entire lobby was almost fully occupied by the decoration. The relatives and friends who stood on the side of the platform were lined to face the host. Everyone was quite joyful. Against the background wall, there was a big screen on which the wedding photo of George and Sophia was displayed. And in the middle of the hall, from the gate to the platform of the ceremony host, there was a red carpet covered with flowers. After a while, Sophia, who was led by her father, was walking towards the ceremony stage.

At this time, in a groom's suit, George stood next to the host, looking in the direction of the door from time to time.

"George is a little nervous." Sitting in the seat of relatives, Fiona whispered to Spencer.

"He must be nervous! It's a big event in one's life. "After saying that, Spencer pulled his tie and muttered, "I've worn the western suit that I'm going to wear for my whole life these two days. It's so weird." Terence smiled and stimulated him intentionally, "You wish! Think about it. Sarah is going to get married in the future, and you have to wear a suit then hand your daughter's hand to another man." Spencer's face darkened. "Damn it! Who said Sarah are going to get married? I'll support her for the rest of her life." Fiona smiled. He became childish again.

"Then she will dislike you old man." Vivian immediately added fuel to the fire.

"......" A smile cracked Spencer's lips. He stared at the belly of Vivian and said, "I hope there are two daughters in your womb. I guess when Terence's daughter get married, he will cry."

"Fuck off!" Terence lifted his foot and kicked Spencer, who dodged nimbly with a laugh.

Sitting upright with his parents at another table, Ryan was not as relaxed as all of them.

On the stage, the wedding host said with a glib tongue, "Ladies and gentlemen, now it's our turn to welcome the most beautiful bride, Sophia."

All of a sudden

After a warm applause, the soothing wedding song, the song called Wedding March, was slowly played. The background screen began to play the short video of George and Sophia. With a loud sound, the door of the hall was pushed open, and under the dim light, Sophia appeared with her father's hand in hers.

Standing far away from the stage, George could only feel his breath paused, as if he had seen Sophia for the first time. His palms were slightly sweating.

Sophia's face was a little vague under the bride veil. She saw George at a glance. She wanted to laugh, but at the same time, she wanted to cry. Seeing that his father was stepping forward slowly, Sophia followed him. Sarah and another little boy followed Sophia and excitedly tossed the petals in the basket to the sky.

Every step she took seemed to have passed mountains and rivers. George stared at Sophia, and Sophia stared at him. The scene that they knew each other flashed through their minds.

She still remembered that when they met for the first time, Sophia only saw George's blurred face from a distance. She was interested immediately. Although she said that she was going to chase after George just for a joke, after talking so much, she still couldn't get him out of her mind. She also remembered that she got the contact information and photos of George from Fiona. The photos were firmly used as all kinds of mobile phone wallpaper, and she remembered the phone number in no time. Excited for a few days, she checked his cell phone number again and again. Then, she dialed George's number for the first time. As soon as the phone was connected, she heard George's low voice, "Hello." her heart skipped a beat and from then on, she fell into the net that George built for her, and could no longer extricate herself from it...

The first time George met Sophia was in the gym of D University. It was the first time he had seen someone introducing her. He was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm he got when he heard the words' fiancee 'and' no boyfriend'. He still remembered that Sophia got his phone number, cellphone, text, Internet from Fiona... A young lady named Sophia suddenly took up the contact information that he could use. His phone and computer, which he seldom used, would also make a few comments and calls from time to time. He had forgotten when he got used to Sophia's fuss and her flaunting manner in front of him and his friend. Everything seemed to make sense as she said she was George's girlfriend. George neither contradicted nor promised anything. Perhaps he was thinking that it would be not bad to live like this..

Until he was shot and his legs could not move, and then Fiona divorced with Spencer, he wanted to let Sophia leave in those dark days. But Sophia was always with them like chewing gum. She provided sunshine to their life, which made him feel the feeling of being needed more than ever.

When Sophia saw him sat on the wheelchair everyday, he could feel his legs but still couldn't get up. At that time, she was distressed by him. She even thought if he just being like this, that was also good. He was so excellent, if his legs recovered, it was not her turn to marry him. However, to think about it in this way, Sophia still hoped that George could stand up and live a normal life. She made up her mind to help him.

When Sophia told her parents firmly that she would never marry anyone except George in her life, George sat in a wheelchair, feeling his heart aching. For the first time, he felt that he really couldn't leave the little girl named Sophia. It was undeniable that his leg had recovered mostly for the sake of Sophia. He didn't want to see Sophia suffer. He didn't want her stubbornness turned into ashes. He didn't want to make it a reality that everyone think he couldn't stand up any more.

"Sophia is so beautiful today. Sure enough, the bride is the most beautiful." Watching Sophia getting closer to George, Vivian couldn't help but sigh.

"She's beautiful and elegant. Finally she is quiet now." Terence responded.

"That would be great if only she had been like this." Spencer sighed too.

Sophia was walking closer and closer to George. She was finally going to get married and be his bride. Sophia's father stood in front of George and handed Sophia's hand to him solemnly. At the moment when their hands crossed, a trace of warmth seemed to come out from the air.

"Take good care of Sophia, George." Choking with sobs, Sophia's father finished his words, and George also nodded seriously. "I will."

His father's abrupt presence made Sophia want to cry. His eyes had just turned red. But her hand was grabbed by her father tightly. Tears coursed down Sophia's father's cheeks. "Sophia, are you going to get married so soon? Don't you really think about it anymore? "Won't you stay at home for another two years?

George pursed his lips and took Sophia's hand. He did not know what to do next.

The corner of Sophia's mouth twitched, and her tears were gone. She reached out the other hand to take her father's, and said, "Daddy, I've made up my mind to get married. If you stop me, I'll never go back home again. Go to sit with my mom, or she will be jealous." Then she pushed her father away. She touched her wedding dress and smiled at George. "Darling, let's continue."

George blinked his eyes and didn't know whether he should laugh or cry at the episode. He took her hand and brought her to the emcee.

The emcee made a scene again, which made all the guests burst into laughter. Finally, it was time to exchange the rings. The emcee said, "Now, let's welcome the bride and groom to exchange the rings!"

George took the ring and gently put the small object symbolizing a happy life on Sophia's finger. Things went smoothly this time. Looking at the ring, Sophia giggled. She was so immersed in her own world that she had completely forgotten that she still had to put the ring on George's finger. When George was about to say something, the emcee spoke.

The host smiled, "Our bride is so happy that she even forgot to put the wedding ring on her husband's finger. This ring is very valuable. Is the bride going to be in charge of her family's financial power since now? Does she even save money for the groom?" "Haha..."

There was a burst of laughter off the stage. Sophia was stunned for a while and then came to her sense. Her face was flushed. She quickly took the ring held by the ritual girl behind her and walked close to George.
