It Took The Happy Couple Seven Years to Open Their Wedding Present, But When They Did It Changed The Course of Their Lives

It’s unheard of to make a couple wait 7 years before allowing them to unwrap a wedding present. Many marriages nowadays don’t even last a decade. However, grandmother Iris was unmoved in her insistence. If Stacy and Thomas wanted to receive her present now, she would have to pass first.

Both parties had enough sense to respect Grandma’s wishes, but it turned out that there was a compelling reason for the delay.

Stacy put down the phone, still shivering with emotion. She could hardly accept it, yet there was no escaping the reality. A funeral was held for Grandma Iris. How her mother had just told her the facts.

Totally unconcerned, it seemed…

However, some context is necessary to make sense of this unusual circumstance.

They were as incompatible as Stacy Bailey and Thomas Garvey can get. They didn’t have many interests, yet their instant attraction led them to fall in love despite this. Thomas proposed to Stacy after four years of dating. She was bursting with anticipation for the upcoming wedding preparations.

She made an effort to put the past in the past.
