The waitress brought our food, and we dug in. “Are you going to try soon?” Nicole asked around a mouthful of salad.
I shrugged. “I’m not sure I’m ready yet. We got married less than two weeks ago.”

I just wasn’t sure I was ready.
“Well, I didn’t.” I laughed. “And neither did you. How long are you two planning on waiting?”
