The next day, he was acting not like he usually does. He didn't talk much; he kept his distance to me and left the shop all too often. I went over to the huge desk, which looks like a coffin, seeing the papers to pile up into a massive hill. He normally takes care of his shop, but now, he doesn't do anything for his work. He was like that for an entire week.
Afterwards, he changed his behavior back to the loving Undertaker that I know. "Come love, we have to get ready" he said in his cheerful voice. I didn't get what he meant, as he dragged me out of the shop towards the church. "What are we doing here? Today isn't a funeral, is it? I asked confused. "Not today dear, today is another special day in some people's lives..." I didn't get it, as he grinned at me "...marriage."
"Eh???" I was shocked; he planned it all without my permission. "Nooo I don't want too~~" I whined trying to run away. He kept a firm grip on my wrist, pulling me into the church "It won't take long and then you can stay with me." "I don't want to marry you or anyone else!" I said, resisting getting through the door. "It's either that...or the poorhouse!" he said with a frown "It's your choice."
I have no choice, I thought. Tears were rolling down my cheek, as I nodded at him, whispering my answer "I marry you."
The next few days
I didn't speak to Undertaker since that day. I was glad though, that he didn't ask me to have our wedding night or even a Honeymoon We sleep in the same bed, but I keep my distance to him, hitting him whenever he tried to touch me. When he talks to me, I give him a short reply, to refuse a conversation with him.
It gets worse, as the man came back to the shop.
"Undertaker! Have you fulfilled your duty?" he said, getting straight to the point. "Hello to you too. Yes, we are married now" said Undertaker, showing him the certificate. "What?!" the man was angry now, he never thought the mortician would go that far. He slammed the door shut and screamed outside. The mortician laughed at the man's outburst, before going back to me. I sat in a corner, sulking, he could only sigh at me. He tried to break the ice, as he gave me tea and cookies. I refused though "How long are going to be that way?" he asked concerned. I didn't respond "I like to see my little girl smiling again" he said, taking a cookie and moved it in front of my lips. "I know you want the cookie~" he sang, moving it underneath my nose, smelling the sweet scent in. my stomach rumble in hunger, as I opened my mouth a little. He put the cookie in and watched in joy as I ate his little treat. "That's more like it" he said, a lot more cheerful, leaving the cookies and tea beside me, he had customers to attend to.
Once he returned I was in our bed sleeping, the cookies and tea, all gone. He sat beside me and moved my hair from my face, looking at me for a while. He prepared everything for the next day, before joining me, holding me close. When I am asleep I don't feel it and that way, I can t push him off.
And he knows that!
At a mansion
The man was furious, throwing around book, vases, and furniture. His friend heard the commotion "What are you doing here?!" "She is married!!!!" the man said, throwing a chair out the window. "And you think, breaking everything you can get her?!" said his friend, trying to calm him down. They both sat down on armchairs, drinking a whisky together.
"There's got to be a way to get her" he said, feeling a lot more relaxed. His friend was surprised at him "I can't believe, that this little girl got under your skin." The man stood up, walking around with worry "I send my spies on them and I heard that they haven't had their wedding night together...can you do something about that?" His friend seems to be in deep thoughts "If this can be proved, the marriage can be cancelled, under false pretense." The man was getting a smile on his face "Perfect, I inform the spies immediately."
