Ví dụ
Was she different from how we saw her? “Completely,” he says. “Very down to earth, and very very funny. A hoot.” What made him laugh most? “When she did her Gracie Fields impression in her dressing gown, haha! She’d stand there with a mug of tea and a piece of toast on top, ‘Here y’are Paul,’ and she’d start ‘Walter, Walter, lead me to the altar’.

Despite all the odds (sự khác nhau), my husband managed to lead me to the altar, with both our families participating equally in the wedding. There were times when we got weak in the face of all the difficulties surrounding us. But the one aspect that remained constant in all this was our resilience. Whenever one of us went weak, the other stayed rock-solid, and was a strong support.

When I was 18, I bumped into a man on my way home. We got chatting and he asked me out. Wes was smart, funny and kind. It was like we'd known each other for years. He could sense I was troubled and told me I didn't have to go home if I didn't want to. "I want to marry you," he told me earnestly. Perhaps another person would've been wary, but this was the first time in years that anyone had shown me warmth. So, I agreed. He helped me tell my mum and Bennie. We planned the wedding for three weeks' time. But I wasn't rid of Bennie yet. He insisted on walking me down the aisle. It was the last thing I wanted, but I knew I didn't have a say in the matter. Weeks later, I felt sick as my rapist lead me to the altar. But soon, I was a married woman and able to distance myself from Bennie. After a while, my family and I drifted apart.
