Happy – sad, unhappy, upset
Poor – rich
Busy – free
Excited – calm,
Married – single
One of my friends got married very young at 21. She met her husband in school. They were unseparated from day one and very happy and excited to be together.
At that time, I was single and often I was with them. A few months before their wedding day my friend was very upset and sad, because of her mother’s behaviour. She told me that her mother is very unhappy because of this marriage.
Like every mother, she had hopes and expectations for the future of her kids. My friend told me her mother didn’t like her future husband because he was from a poor family. She also thought he was still a child without any plans for the future. It looked like they had argued before about this situation because she was very angry and worrying about the future.
I tried to calm her, and we spoke a lot about this problem. She really loved that boy regardless he wasn’t rich. The only thing, that she wanted, was to be together with him.
This story has a happy ending, because of one person – her lovely father. He was very excited about the wedding. He really liked her boyfriend and respected her choices. He managed to help them with many things, especially convincing his wife, that only one thing matters – the happiness of their daughter.
