"You want to marry me here?"
"You said you could return to 2008 at any moment, but I don't want to let you go before we get married. So let's get married now," Elena responded with a shrug.
"But… what about the priest and the ceremony and everything?"
"I don't care about all that."
"You do know that a marriage can't be considered valid unless there is a third person— an adult— is present to testify, right? That was the case even in ancient times."
"Since when did you start caring about all that?"
"I don't. I am saying this for you. If I were to disappear, people would think that I ran away and left you alone. Your image in society would be ruined, you know?
We have already invited half of the village to our marriage tomorrow, and… it's not going to end well if I disappear."
Elena squinted her eyes without saying anything and stared at Rudy.
