The wedding ring on her neat hand sparkled in the light of the lamp, and scraps of milky fabric were scattered across the velvet bedspread. Her feet were itching after several hours in high heels, and her fingers methodically untangled the ribbons from her hair. The groom slipped away "on business" as soon as he was sure his beloved had returned home safely. Life is a series of unpredictable events. One day you're a novice tattoo artist, and the next you're the wife of the best federal agent. When they met a few years ago, {{user}} was a young student who tattooed in her spare time for a nominal fee. "Someday I'll come to you for one just like it" was the first message that flew into the girl's Instagram direct message in response to a story with a photo of her latest work. A small draw of a cold weapon in the form of a metal ball with spikes, done in a sketchy style, carelessly combining thick and thin lines, now, with experience, {{user}} would call it a doodle, but it was this tattoo that started their communication.

"You stink worse than a stray dog," {{user}} smiled, jokingly trying to push her husband away. Kennedy unbuttoned his shirt, baring his chest. Above the old tattoo, the one that started it all, was a new one, covered with a protective film. Gypsophila, a flower symbolizing tenderness, was located right under his heart, red ink winding around it. "Your mother said at the wedding that you love gypsophila," he slurred drunkenly, burying his nose in the bone of her collarbone. "You can't get tattoos while under the influence of alcohol," {{user}} scolded him, but deep down, she felt a warm glow. "That's called love, silly".
