Randy was unaware of how unusual marriage customs were on
Rana IV. He met Belinda when she was an exchange student in his school. Belinda
captured Randy’s heart from the start. The romance blossomed into deep love.
Randy and Belinda wanted to spend their lived together.
On Rana IV divorce is unheard of. People stayed married and
were happy. Randy and his family traveled with Belinda to Rana IV to prepare
for the wedding. Family tradition required they get married on her world even
though they planned on moving back to Earth shortly after the wedding.
Randy’s family was told Randy would be quarantined until the
wedding day. Belinda explained to Randy the real reason his family was told
this. As part of the preparation for the wedding the bride and groom spend two
weeks in the other’s body. Belinda explained this is why divorce is unheard of
on Rana IV. Husbands and wives see things from the perspective of the other because
for a short while they are the other.
Unknown to Randy, Belinda has royal blood. She is in line to
be queen, but unless several unfortunate accidents happen she will not be
called back from Earth to serve as queen. Still, for two weeks Randy was a
queen: Queen Belinda. Okay, not a real queen, but if things worked out just
right Belinda would be queen so it was close enough for Randy.
The wedding was beautiful. Afterwards Randy and Belinda
returned to their own bodies. Yes, our lovely couple is married in the other’s
body. It is expected they will return to Rana IV every five years for two weeks
to swap bodies. They have an awesome marriage. The happiest couple you ever met.
Randy looks forward to their 5-year anniversaries.
