This is the day. Everybody’s busy making everything perfect and in place. I look at the clock. 30 minutes more and I’ll be saying my vows. The ceremony will hold at the White mansion. I’m in the guest’s room dress in my white wedding gown with a veil covering my face, it looks more like a ball gown than a wedding gown. Hundreds of diamonds were used to have its cherry blossom designs. I am the one who chose the design and finalize my gown. I walk near the window to see if there are many visitors arrive. I’m not expecting hundreds of visitors, we have decide to make it simple and just invite close friends and important persons.
I have counted at least 30 guests. Not bad. The door opens without me hearing any knock. I turn to see who it is. Amanda in her all bitter-sour face dresses in black. This woman wouldn’t let me pass through this day without a fight.
“What do you want Amanda?” asking her looking straight to her face.
“You happy now Margarett? Marrying the one I love, breaking us apart because your father’s selfish unreasonable reason.” In accusation and bitterness.
“I’m not breaking you and Lucas apart. Please stay my father out of this.”
“You home wrecker ruthless bitch.” She hisses at me angrily.
My eyes widen in disbelief. She called me a bitch. “Watch your word Amanda.” I warn her.
She laughs. “Now I’m scared Margarett. Do you ever believe that you can take Lucas away from me? That he’ll loves you? Yes, you may marry him, but you can never have his heart away. You’ll never make him happy, you can never satisfy him, you’ll never be able to pleasure him. Only me can do those, only me can bring him in too much ecstasy.” She says confidently as she moves towards me. “Well…what can you do in bed Garet? I’m sure, the reason why Gordon left you because you can’t fulfil his needs, you can’t make him happy and that’s what will happen to you. Lucas will leave…for me. He’s mine, and you kinky bitch----“ she gasps in disbelief when my hand land in her cheek.
“Enough calling me bitch Amanda!” I yell at her in too much anger.
“You shameless bitch! How dare you hurt me?” she’s about to slap me when I manage to stop her hand and pushes her aside.
“Margarett!” a woman shouts.
We look up and see Cassandra in the entrance. Her face in horror, then I hear Amanda sobs hysterically. “oh dear aunt.” Hugging Casandra tightly as if she’s hurt. “What happened?” Cassandra asks with full concern in her voice.
“Oh dear aunt, she got angry when she saw me wearing black, I told her that I’m in mourn because of my Uncle Frei’s death, but she—she---slapped, telling me that---.”not finishing her sentence as Sobbing again, this time more loudly. Cassandra tapping her shoulders, making her calm. “Hush now sweetie. I know how it feels.” Telling Amanda softly.
As Amanda calms down, a hand quickly hit my cheek without any hint that makes me take a step backward. I hold my cheek in pain, tears building in my eyes.
“You gold digger! You have no right to hurt her. Don’t you know that she’s Lucas girlfriend? If it weren’t because of your father, he’ll be not marrying you. You don’t deserve him! With your ungrateful attitude, you’re a disgrace.” She says in fury, insults burning her tongue.
“Excuse me Cassandra, my parents thought me how to be grateful but only to those person who deserves it.” which makes her more angry as she hits me again, this time I hit her back.
“Margarett!”
LUCAS!
He dashes inside the room, locking the door. “What the hell is happening here?” he asks in frustration.
