》Michael《

We were getting ready for a civil wedding, which we were supposed to take officially, mainly for the media...

We didn't get married in a church, but in a civil ceremony. We planned the church and the wedding party after the tour....

Four television stations covered our wedding.

I got used to it, because my and Izabella's wedding were covered by all the media in the country...

***

After the wedding, we went back to the apartment.

– So what, officially, now, husband? – she asked

– We both know we've been married since you had surgery. Wife.

– That sounds ridiculous

– I know... but when I married Isabell, I felt somehow different...

– She was your first wife, that's once. Now you have a child, that's two. And thirdly, you are now a widower who has remarried.

– That doesn't sound cool to me...

– It wasn't meant to sound cool. The thing is, you didn't have a child at the time, and you were getting married for the first time in your life. The thing is, your brain interprets the wedding differently now than it did 8 years ago. Besides, Izabell was pregnant at the time, and as you know, since the removal of the tumor, I still am not. How you feel is a psychological problem.

– Psychological? I would have diagnosed myself. I convinced Olivia's father that his daughter was dead, I convinced Kayah that she would survive...

– Michi, you're 30 years old... You raised your daughter for 7 years on your own. I know it was hard for you after Izabell's death, but you didn't break down.

– I know... I had to pull myself together, even though I crumbled into crumbs...

– A broken diamond... Mike, you saved me. Believe me, you weren't the only one who suffered through Izabell's death... I want to give you a child, but I'm afraid I'll share the fate of your first wife.

– If that happens, I won't go to bed with anyone ever again... if you share Izabell's fate, it means that the problem of a life-threatening pregnancy was not with her, but with me.

– Michael, I want to give you a baby, but apparently I can't... The doctors were wrong. It wasn't the tumor that prevented pregnancy. I'm the one who is infertile.

– I'll take you to the doctor. He'll check... Maybe it's just about your fertile days, or the medication you took after the procedure.

– I hope...
