Until The End Of Our Days

The Wedding Day

Chapter 3

Nathaniel stood in front of a tall, white church along with his mother and other guests all dressed formally for the special occasion.

Nathaniel wore black trousers, a white shirt and a dress jacket in the same shade as the dress shirt he had under him. Around the neck tied around, he had a bow tie bound into a ribbon in front of his throat.

"Can't believe Mr. Rossi actually bought me a brand suit for my wedding," Said Nathaniel to his mother, while he checked himself out by looking down at his body. "That must have been very expensive"

"They just wanted, that my precious baby would look great on his wedding day for the bride," Said Mrs. Kurtzberg pinching Nathaniel on his cheeks, making him blush.

"Mom don't do that. People are watching" Pouted Nathaniel embarrassingly pulling his mother's hand away from him.

"Okay I have to keep that for my future grandchildren," Mother Kurtzberg said, making Nathaniel roll his eyes.

"Mom I think it's too early to think of that"

"Haven't you and Lila thought on having your own children yet?"

"We did, but....."

"Morning Nathaniel!" Exclaimed a female voice and it was Rose wearing a dark red dress jumping at Nathaniel's back. "Your day has finally come, you're finally going to marry Lila! Isn't that exciting?!?"

"It is Rose, don't yell so loud. I couldn't sleep well last night"

"Aww were you nervous or did you miss Lila?" Asked Rose.

"Or both?" Asked Juleka appearing in the same dress as Rose.

"To be honest both, but....I'm actually more nervous about the wedding"

"Don't worry it will go fine Nathaniel, trust me"

"Okay I hope you're right," Said Nathaniel and beside Nathaniel passed a brown-haired man, crashing against Nathaniel on the shoulder.

"Watch it!" Shouted that man turning around to Nathaniel and the girls.

"Uh....I'm sorry" Apologized Nathaniel a bit startled at the rude glare the man gave at Nathaniel.

"He has to apologize, Nathaniel, not you" Phrased the blonde woman at the redhead, which looked back at the tan-skinned guy again.

"You're Nathaniel Kurtzberg?" Asked the man. "The one who's going to marry Lila Rossi?"
"Yeah?" Nathaniel replied questioningly at the Italian man.

"Lila was my best friend when she used to live down in Italy," The man told to Nathaniel, making him think. "I'm Carlo. Maybe she talked to you about eventually?"

"I think she mentioned you once. Your dad and hers are work pals right?" Asked Nathaniel and the tan-skinned nodded. "Nice to meet you"

"So....you're excited about going to marry Lila?" Asked Carlo earning a nod from Nathaniel.

"And kinda nervous" Added Nathaniel.

"You need to drink some tea" Suggested Carlo.

"Nah I'm not a big fan of teas" Confessed Nathaniel passing his hand behind his neck.

"We still got twenty minutes left. You sure manage to drink it all in that space of time. Or at least a little bit?" Offered Carlo. "I pay the tea, I don't mind"

"Are all of you Italians so rich?" Asked Nathaniel at Carlo's offer.

"Lila and my family are the only ones I know to be rich" Said Carlo grabbing Nathaniel on his arm. "Come on down the streets is a coffee bar, it's not so far away from here"
