Excuse me, my mother-in-law is seriously ill, and sometimes she doesn’t understand what she’s saying. Holy Father, let’s continue; her words mean nothing. She is confused.

— But I’m not ill! — protested my mother-in-law.

— Yes, yes, you are perfectly healthy, you just forgot your medicine a little. Now it’s over, and I will give it to you, — I replied gently.

She was confused, stepped aside, and sat on a chair, and the ceremony continued. We got married, and at that moment, I realized: sometimes, to protect your happiness, you have to be clever.
