A Mask at the Wedding
"Do you take this woman to be your wife, to stand by her through thick and thin?"
"I do," the man said, his voice muffled by the mask.
The guests whispered in awe. Howard Larson, the Larson family's big shot, was so in love with me that he would not let a bad cold stop our big day. He did not want to disappoint me.
"Wait a second."
The man's eyes darted around, and his forehead was dotted with sweat.
I smiled and asked, "Howard, you're looking a bit pale. Too busy with the wedding to remember your medicine?"
