Watching her walk straight to the ice cream stand in high heels, I knew that she had not forgotten that day.
That was the day to get the marriage certificate.
At that time, we rode a shared bike and navigated all the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
We were both very young at that time. I didn’t have a car or a house and even though I didn’t have money to hold a wedding, she was still willing to get the marriage certificate with me first.
After coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, I was wrapped in huge joy and picked her up and turned around several times.
She pouted her lips and said, “I want to eat vanilla ice cream!”
I couldn’t wait to pull her to find the nearest stall.
She took a photo in the sun with a cute ice cream ball and smiled happily.
I couldn’t help but shake my head, silly girl, how could you be so satisfied?
I knew how much I owed her when I got the marriage certificate, so in the following years, I worked hard to make money for her to spend, just wanting to give her everything to compensate her.
But later, I had a car and a house and my love for her only increased.
But she fell in love with someone else.
“Here you go.”
