Two months after the wedding, and after a while during which Barbarita was somewhat distracted, melancholic, and as if she wanted to cry, which greatly alarmed her mother, signs of a romance appeared in that marriage started in such poor conditions.

Discussion

Melancholy
is primarily a noun (a state of sadness) or an adjective for a wistful, poetic mood, while melancholic is a formal or clinical adjective describing a person's deep, lasting sadness. Use melancholy for gentle, pensive sadness (e.g., "a melancholy song") and melancholic for clinical depression or a, profound, persistent unhappy state.
