,No sooner met but they looked,no sooner looked but they loved, no sooner loved but they sighed,no sooner knew sighed but they asked one another the reason,no sooner knew the reason, but they sought the remedy; and in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage.'
Daniel johnston. " Do you take Anna Laine as your lawful wife? The minister asked.
"I do," he replied curtly, looking at nothing in particular as his eyes void any emotions he was feeling.
The minister turned to the bride and asked,"do you take Daniel Johnston as your lawful husband?" Her heart skipped a little, staring at her unresponsive husband-to-be face before responding in a crooked voice, "I do".
"With the power of God, I declare both of you as husband and wife. You may kiss your bride, the minister pronounced.
Her stranger husband moved to her slowly, opened her white veil a little as he titled his head to the right side, and she closed her eyes expectantly, waiting for his cold lips to hers,but a gush of air passed through her face.
She fluttered,and her eyes opened to know what was delaying him, but she was left alone in the altar, humiliated.
He left her.
She was just a replacement.
People always say first love is a lesson, but last love is true love,and Daniel Johnston did not believe it because his first and last love was Anna Laine.
His only woman.
Anna Laine was the grand daughter of his nanny Mrs.Adrain.He and Anna practically grew up together from diapers,and they went to the same schools. And they promised to get married when they grew up till old together with their children.
