Sledgehammer
Bill had never been so in love. Kristen was to a woman like a sledgehammer is to a hammer. He was grateful that she felt the same way.
He proposed after six months of dating. She said yes. Everyone that knew them said after the first time seeing them together that they were perfect for each other.
They decided to write their own vows. Kristin told a story about telling her grandmother right before she died she'd just met the man she was going to marry. Bill told the sledgehammer analogy.
That's when she realized they were making a mistake.
