Sitting down Nick grasped at my hand like as if he was hoping to give us both confidence in what we do. Looking forward to Mrs. Chem she handed us a file and said, "No need to be nervous my husband and I were actually planning on saying yes to your wedding. All you need to know is in the file please look over it." Carefully I grasped at the file and looked inside. With a skim of the page, I read what I felt was important.

Once I read most of it and skipped over some parts I was very pleased with how The church will let us take control of our wedding. With a smile on my face, I handed the file to Nick for him to read and decide on whether or not he wants to have the wedding here. He looked over the sheets a few times and seemed pleased. With that, we looked after deciding on having our wedding at this current church. Looking up I decided to tell Mr. and Mrs. Chem our answer and said, "We will love to have our wedding here." With a clap or her hand, Mrs. Chem joyfully said, "Oh, wonderful I am glad you decided on here. Do you wish to continue talking about the wedding or do you wish to do that later." Looking at the time Nick turned to me and answered the lady while seeming to tell me his part, "I'm sorry Mrs. Chem I would enjoy talking to you guys about the wedding plan with Ann, but unfortunately, I have to work in a few hours. So I figured it is best we head back home." Grabbing my hand with great force he dragged me out of the Church.

Spinning me around Nick grasped at the car keys that were hooked on my belt. With the keys, free Nick opened the passenger door and let me into the car than dashed around the car. In the driver's seat, Nick veered out of the parking lot and headed to our home. With no music to listen to I started to hum the "Star Wars" theme song. After a while, Nick started to hum the "Star Wars" Theme song as well. After a while, we were practically singing the notes to the song all the way home. Once home we exited the car and entered our home holding hands. We laughed and talked about how we love the movie and how we can't wait to get the newer versions of Star Wars that are out on DVD. After entering our single story home we both felt the need to watch some Star Wars before Nick headed to work. Halfway through the movie Nick seemed to be getting anxious and kept looking at his watch. Knowing that he wanted to get to work I stopped the movie.

Turning towards me Nick asked, "Why did you turn off the movie? It was getting to my favorite part." Sighing I kissed Nicks cheek and said, "I know you are getting anxious about work." Looking down with guilt Nick did not respond. Knowing that he loves his job I kissed his cheek and said, "It's alright babe, I'm not mad. Why don't you head off to work and I'll start browsing for some dress designs for the wedding." Looking at me with somber eyes he kissed my cheek and said, "I'm sorry I haven't spent as much time with you as I should." Grabbing my cheeks he continued, "I promise I'll make it up to you." With that, he kissed my lips and left out the front door. It only took me a few moments to hear the roar of the car engine and see the car lights leave its parking stall.

Saddened by the fact that he left yet again I went to the desktop and started to look at dress designs I might want for the wedding. Halfway through looking at photos of dresses that didn't attract my eye's I looked at the time. The time on the clock showed that it was going to be midnight in a few hours. Thinking to myself I curled up in a ball. Unable to keep calm I wound up shedding a few tears. I felt so lonely in those few hours of research, but I forced myself to keep looking for something that will keep me distracted. I wanted to go to Nick or have him here I wanted to hug him. I want to be near him lately though he has been putting in overtime. Usually, he doesn't arrive home until 3 a.m building up work hours so that he will have enough vacation time for the wedding. Feeling down and depressed I stood up and started to stretch. With no one around I started to give myself a pep talk to get out of my depressing stage. I kept saying, "Ann now is not the time to be in the dumps. At least he is doing over time so that he has enough time to have a long month off work. That's right I'm not lonely at all." After a while I decided to calm myself I went to take a shower. In the bathroom and taking a shower I soon relaxed. After a while, I forgot how lonely I felt only moments ago. Slipping out of the shower my skin glowing a pink hue I slipped on a nightgown. Once under the bed sheets, I looked out the glass window and thought to myself "When will he be home, I feel so alone." Closing my eyes I went into a deep sleep.
