And she could not believe it.
Her son. The one who had disappointed her for the first time ten years ago and continued to disappoint her ever since.
She could not believe it that he had come back from the Seminary with a girl. That was not her vision for him. Not hers. Not God's.
Ever since she held the baby boy in her arms, her relatives could hear her telling him "You will become a priest". She kept repeating it to him over the years lest he be tempted away from the path God had revealed to her.
The girl was not even pretty. Plump and with heavy makeup on, Gabriella could not believe that her son had brought home a woman to whom he wanted to be married to.
Susanna. Not from the Book of Daniel but from the Book of Devil. The Temptress. But she couldn't do anything. It was not her time.
