But once she grace us with her wavy midnight hair, firm thin lips and big brown eyes of a doll, I wish I did meet her at the church exchanging immortal vows with one another with fluttering hearts and hungry lips. However that night the church was raze by spawn of Satanas; violated and desecrated it with their fetid claws and teeth.
