8

When I was told that Frank was getting married, I could hardly believe my ears. Because Frank was so satisfied with his free single life that he didn't want to be committed to anyone. So my first response to the news was 'is he really?' But later I was convinced by their romance. Frank met his fiancee on a holiday in Spain. They fell in love almost at the first sight. But the girl was relaxed and independent as he was; therefore, it took quite a while for their relationship to reach that place. If it hadn't been for their story, I wouldn't have believed love at first sight.
