Someone continuously tapped my face in an attempt to wake me up. "Mama?"A little voice said and then the tapping continued.
"Is she dead Uncle Ean?"The childs voice said again. "Mama is asleep Danny,she is tired ohkay?Let her rest"Another voice said,a man's voice to be more precise.
I groaned and clenched my eyes shut.My head was pounding and my neck felt stiff.I slowly opened my eyes to find Danielle hovering over me.
"Mama!"She said in a high pitch squeal causing me to whince. "Ohkay Danny,Go down for breakfast with Granma ,Mommy will be down soon"Ethan said dismissing Danielle who ran out the room.
"Hey babe"Ethan said handing me advil and a glass of water. I silently thanked him and took the pill and drank the whole glass of water.
Today I was looking for a drama-free day ,I just wanted to plan this wedding and get over and done with it. It was three days to the wedding and this felt more realistic than I thought.
My wish for this day to be drama-free was nothing but a wish . Firstly Mom kept making arrangements we hadnt agreed on,she was just so controlling and it irritated the living crap in me.
"Im going to see if the caterer can change this. Im not gonna do what pleases you Mom"I snapped picking up my phone and dialing the caterers number . We were at home and the decorators and everyone was here.
They showed me a sample of what is to be on our menu and apparently 'The mother of the bride' had major changes without my consent.
"You know what Tayla ,Im not gonna help further with this wedding!I cant do anything right in your eyes"Mom snapped as well and huffed like Danielle would do when she couldnt get what she wanted.
"Maybe you shouldnt help at all Mom cause you are ruining everything"I yelled at her another migraine forming.
"Ohh for crying out loud Tayla,Stop acting like a teenager your a grown woman "She yelled failing her arms.
"Same goes for you Jessica"I snapped and walked away meeting my Dad on his way out.
"Hey whats up sweetheart?"Dad asked stopping me and embracing me like he would always do when I was younger.
"Im so done with your wife Dad,she is not entitled to controlling every aspect of my life"I sighed feeling defeated.
"Sweetheart,I know your mom only wants what is best for you.I doubt she is doing it to spite you"Dad said walking us into the kitchen and sitting on the chairs at large kitchen island.
"She has to realise that Im grown and I have a kid and she should stop treating me like one"I said.
"She will stop treating you like a kid if you stop acting like one.You know you will always be her baby she just doesnt want to lose you"He said comforting me.
"I get it Dad but it infuriates me when she just doesnt give me a say "I sighed and leaned in for a hug from my Dad.
"You two better work it out,Im tired of the bickering"Dad said with a sweet smile. "I better go pick up my dresses ,later Dad "I said

The house was now much more crowded ,we always had guests and the wedding planner always walked in and out bringing something or changing something.
We were spending a quite a lot of money on this wedding and I expected it to be as beautiful as ever.
Night time fell and some of the guests that flew in went back to their hotels and now it was just my family and a few friends.
