Both Edith and Azigiza seemed shocked to the marrow. A vociferous Azigiza at this moment had been rendered speechless. He could be seen perspiring profusely to the extent that his weighty white handkerchief was not enough to wipe away the sweat. He dropped the handkerchief, grabbed his outfit and begun fanning himself with it – for the news was too hot to bear.
All these while, his wife was teary and overwhelmed with joy.
“I will not cry,” said Azigiza who seemed to have found his voice. “I’m not crying… my wife is crying.”
For Edith, the sponsored event for the renewal of vows adds to the dose of surprises she’s had to swallow in the last couple of days.
With a quivering voice, she remarked, “Just last week, there was a big surprise. And this Saturday too, another surprise…”
