The cathedral was full of life. Its golden interiors, blasted with surreal Roman artwork and exquisite Bible mosaics, were filled with people as they sat in silence, watching the content couple say their vows. The only persons in this place that seized my interests were the bride and groom. Villeta and Fortunato.
Villeta was a young woman at the age of 23, with silky mid-length, curly, brown hair that was pulled into a braided bun and covered by a thin veil. Her figure was like that of a goddess, curvy with creamy skin as soft as the finest velvet. Her azure eyes were as deep as the sea and her eyelashes were as long as fringed curtains.
