Woven ~ Chapter 1
-0-
Marie was so happy that she had to restrain herself from running outside and shouting to the world. She has been so worried about what would happen to their daughters. She had had a small dowry and had married a good man whom she grown to love deeply. She wanted the same for her daughters but had not allowed herself to hope for anything as wonderful as a match with such an important family.
“John, we must tell Tina!”
“WAIT,” Alice spoke loudly. “The fates have taken an odd turn.”
Marie became fearful.
John eyed Alice skeptically, “What is the “odd turn’?”
“Aloysius wants Hannah, not Tina.”
“WHAT!” John roared as he jumped up from the bench.

Outside, Tina drew back suddenly from the door, shocked at the revelation. She was angry. Offended. Insulted. Humiliated.
“What’s wrong, Tina?” Anna asked.
Tina looked at Hannah, who was weeping softly. Tina angrily spat out, “You can stop crying. He wants you, not me.”

“NO! The eldest marries first. He shall have Tina or no one!”
Alice began to worry about her fee. “Friend John, I understand that it is unusual. I know, I know, I know that it is traditional for the oldest girl to marry first. But Aloysius and Hannah are the two that are fated. Tina has a different fate.”
“Then the wedding cannot happen.”
“John!” Marie reprimanded her husband, something she had never done with someone else present.
Her husband looked at her in shock.
“John, it’s our daughter’s happiness. If fate says that she is to be united with Aloysius, then it should be so. We should not interfere.”
“It is not right.”
“Friend John, it is traditional for the oldest daughter to marry first, true, but not a matter of right or wrong.”
“He’s a good match, John. We could never do better.”
John clenched his fists and turned away from the women. The truth was that he loved Tina more than any of his daughters, wrong as that was. He did not want her to leave. Yet, he could not allow her to be insulted in this way. When he had calmed, he turned to face the women.
“Fine. Now you, Friend Alice, must find the fated person for Tina.”

Gosh, how will Bette enter this picture?! Will farmer John marry off his dowry-less-and-left-behind daughter to a WOMAN in desperation? Will Bette pretend to be a man and marry Tina to “save her honor”? Can that happen? (Yes, if it is a Spumoni story – and she can make you believe every word of it. I still think of Bette’s wolf-in-laws’ visit to Weho. How ARE they doing? Tina’s wolf father also loved her the best of all his children, just like farmer John.)
Love the beginning. Wondering how it will play out.
I *really* liked this! I love the set up and can’t wait to see how the story goes. Alice will find Tina a match yet! Thanks for the post, Spumoni. :)

Fantastic beginning and you always leave us wanting more. How are Bette, Tina, Angie and the wolf family? Thanks for bringing us another story.
Anew story from you is a really nice surprise.Thank you,great start.
Very interesting and can’t wait to see Bette enter the picture. Please post more, thanks!
I’m intrigued. Looking forward to more!
Great story. This should be very interesting to see how Bette will appear here. It sounds like this takes place in a very traditional time where two women being romantically involved is probably not even a concept. I can’t wait to see where you take this.
Oooooooohhhhhhhhhhh you’re back with a story that has “Chapter 1” in the title… meaning there’ll be a chapter 2… and possibly tons of further chapters… yayyyyyyyyyyyy :-))))))) Okay, now I’ll start reading… So happy to see you back, Spumoni!

I’m hooked. Mmmmm, how will Bette enter the picture to mate with our Tina? Thanks Friend Spumoni. PPS!
This is amazing. I can’t wait to see how the story unfolds. How will Tina’s parents take to their daughter marrying a woman?
Amazing writing as always! No matter the story. But this one is exceptionally interesting in it’s time frame!
OK… So where are we?!? I think I am lost in spumoni’s land of Ti… Bette?? Uhm so where’s Bette?? :-) so eager to read more! Thanks for this promising chapter / story. PPS
