[THE WHISPER'S "I'M GONNA

MAKE YOU MY WIFE" PLAyS]

You feel so good.

Thank you, Jesus.

And then I did it.

I closed my eyes...

...and I exhaled.

And pretended this man was mine...

...that he was everything

I ever dreamed of...

...that he was the one

I'd been waiting for all my life.

WOMAN:
