"What can I say? You guys are married now. Just focus on making a great life together," Kimberly said, turning back to give her a composed look.

Hertha asked, "Aren't you curious about what's been happening with us these past few days?"

"Oh come on, your marriage is your business. I wouldn't dream of prying too much. As long as you're happy, that's what matters," Kimberly replied with an air of someone who's been there and done that, a hint of sheepishness on her face.

Hertha was puzzled. She thought, "Mom is definitely overthinking this."

"I didn't mean it that way. Remember, Alaric and I still had unresolved issues before we got our marriage license. Aren't you curious about how things are now?"

Hertha set her things on the couch and walked over to her mother, a reminder in her steps.

She and Alaric had resolved their differences. She felt a weight lifted off her shoulders and wanted to share the good news with her mother, to make her happy too.

"Once you've decided on marriage, let bygones be bygones. What matters is building a good life together moving forward," Kimberly said, thinking Hertha was still hung up on Alaric's past escapades.
