Are Marriages Made

In Heaven?

“Bachelors know more about women than married men:

If they didn’t, they’d be married too.”

H. L. Mencken

It is nice to hear from you. I received a message from Carol a month ago but was too busy with family and work to write to you until now. Your email arrived when I was on the phone with Andy and I read your message to him. There was a long silence at the other end before his shaky voice returned, sounding distraught, as if he was sobbing. My brother went through a difficult period after you separated. He missed you terribly and thought of returning to England to be with you. He was close to being a nervous wreck, often contacting me in devastating states of misery. Plunging full steam into his engineering studies eventually healed his wounds. He did well at the University of Canterbury, where he met Toby a few years later. They separated when Andy moved to Canada after graduation.

My brother often talked about you and wished he had stayed in London. I know the two of you were very close in school and you were his first true love. From personal experience, our first love lasts longest and can be the most difficult to release. I count myself fortunate that my husband of 37 years, Jay, is my first love. We have 3 children; Jamie, 27, our eldest is a pharmacist in Stockholm; Charles, 24, his brother, will be graduating from law school in a few months and last but not least Angelique, 20, is a computer science major at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne. We moved to Stockholm when Jay got transferred by his bank so we could be in closer proximity to Jamie. I’m assisting and keeping busy with several nonprofit charities now that the children have left home.

I’ve enclosed Andy’s contact information. Maybe the two of you can reconnect.

1967 Child Marriage

The same day, after Gabrielli’s morning lesson on Muslim Marriages, Andy and I were summoned to the Wazir’s chambers. Jasim, already seated comfortably on the settee, was waiting our arrival while his father spoke on the phone. We sat waiting for the patriarch to finish his call while the manservant brought us beverages. Our host greeted us with the traditional Arabian nose rubs as soon as he replaced the receiver. Sitting next to his son, he started, “I haven’t had a chance to ask how your photography trip went. I have to designate assistants to prepare Mais wedding arrangements over and above my busy business schedules. Now this young fellow (directing his gaze at Jasim) is also preparing his betrothal to Ria.”

Surprised by what I heard, I turned to Andy for a response before Thabit continued, “Jasim is getting married a month after Mais’ wedding. I’d like to ask a favor from you.”

Andy replied, “We will be glad to be of service and will do the utmost to assist in any way possible. Please let us know
