Marrying a Foreigner Part II

The big day came. My parents, best buddies, wifey all went to Putrajaya. Well ... we just wore our usual work clothes. Wifey just worn a simple gown. This is after all ... a civil registry. But don't be surprised if you see some couples there do the whole marriage thingy ... complete with wedding car, flowers, wedding gowns etc.
Anyway ... our turn came and we were called into the room. In the room, we sat next to each other facing the Registrar. The Registar was this lady whom somehow reminds me of all those fierce school teachers or headmistress. Yup ... this was one stern lady. By looking at her, both of us didn't even dare to smile or grin anymore. The swearing in ceremony became very solemn. Haha. She even told us to be serious. Well ... it was painless, except that with the lady registrar whom was so stern looking did make us worry. We just raised our hands, read this declaration and swore in our marriage. With that, we are legally married.
BUT ... we still couldn't shag yet. Legally married but not in the eyes of you know who ... the Big Guy up there. Sighs ....
