It was my wedding day! it was! But where was my husband? I had been at the altar for hours and my husband was nowhere to be found. Mrs. Alicia my mother-in-law had excused herself outside to call him times and times again but he did not show up. Despite all this, the smile on my face could have been compared to the light coming in through the glass windows, I had dolled myself up for this wedding and despite the fact that my legs were killing me due to the 6-inch heels I was wearing, I refused to let anything spoil my wedding.
I looked to where my parents were seated, they smiled without a care in the world, it was expected since they were getting rid of a nuisance. They had made this fact clear to me since I was young and when the first opportunity presented itself, they thrust me into the arms of Alicia Valero. It wasn't a bad deal to me, Alicia was lovely. She loved me even more than my parents but it was her son that was her problem. I had wanted to back out after our first meet where he treated me like I didn't exist but his mother assured me that he just needed time so I married him.
The door of the church opened and my husband entered, 3 hours late. He walked in and my breath caught, he looked so handsome even with the frown on his face, I found my mind wondering to how he would look if a smile stretched those icy lips of his, I wondered how he would look if a laugh lifted those stone hard cheeks and if the twinkle and light of laughter entered his eyes but I could only wonder, the only thing he gifted my eyes with was the frown on his face.
Yet I was happy, I looked forward to when he would open up to me, to when he would show me the cheerful personality that his mother spoke so highly of. It was time to read our vows and I promised myself onto Simon till death do us part. Simon read out his vows and I felt excitement build in my heart despite the fact that he read it like a death sentence.
'I now pronounce you husband and wife' my excitement bubbled out as the priest joined us together and I turned to kiss Simon. He placed a fleeting kiss on my lips and turned away, the kiss left much to be desired and I looked forward to our wedding night.
We walked out of the church hand in hand after taking pictures but immediately we got to where cars were parked, he got in and drove off leaving me standing, stranded. My mother-in-law saved my face and instructed her driver to take me home.
I got home and headed to Simon's room still clad in my wedding gown. I was met with a shocker when Simon told me never to step foot in his room. He pushed me out and called for the maids and instructed them to show me to my room, he told me that he wants nothing to do with me and that I should meet the maids if I wanted anything.
