EVELYN'S POV
Today is my wedding day and at the thought of the word my wedding day I cringe. I could never have imagined that I will be getting married at the age of 21 and to a guy I know nothing about.
At the moment I just knew that dwelling in this thoughts now won't do me any good at all because I might end up developing cold feet and doing something drastic like taking a run for it.
So I decided to take my mind off it and enjoy my wedding as much as I can. The make up artist was done with my makeup and phew I must say the reflection I am seeing in the mirror is definitely not me.
The reflection looking back at me is a drop dead gorgeous woman. I can't believe I could be this beautiful, though I am a natural beauty but mehn I am looking excessively beautiful and I was really happy for once about this wedding.
I slipped into my wedding gown and put on my shoes just then I heard a knock at the door and I told the person to come in.
Just then my parents walked in arm in arm. My dad gave me a once over look and his mouth hung open.
"Where is my daughter please, who is this replaced bride" my dad said still in a daze.
"Come on dad stop with the joke and tell me how I look" I told him laughing trying to cover how nervous I look.
"I could have never asked for another daughter, you are our prayers answered and the best bride" my dad said
Just then a tear slipped out of my mum's eyes and my dad's eyes became moist too.
"Come on mum, you wouldn't want me to start crying now do you, the makeup artist really put in a lot of effort in this and I don't want to ruin it with my tears" I told her while going over to her and giving her a hug.
"Baby girl you look so beautiful that it makes me cry, and so you know they are tears of joy and thank God I witnessed this day" she said while drying her tears.
After the little family moment with my parents they left and Ethan entered with my bouquet.
As soon as he came in and saw me I could literally see his jaw hitting the floor and the bouquet almost falling out of his hand but he immediately masked it though he still looked daze.
"So how do I look ?" I asked him
"You my bestfriend is the most beautiful bride I have ever laid eyes on and I can't forget this image in a while", He said.
He took out his phone and took pictures of me, he equally clicked some selfies of us before he handed me the bouquet.
Just after that one of the wedding officials knocked and came in. She announced that it was time for the wedding and that the groom has arrived. Ethan left the room and the lady that came in helped me with my veil.
The announced for the bride to enter and my dad offered me his hand and I linked it with his while we walked down the aisle with the bridal chorus "Here comes the bride" playing in the background.
When we got to the altar my dad handed me over to Eros and he took my hand gently and helped me up the altar and immediately I saw his face my breath hitched. I don't think I will ever get used to this handsome face but I still controlled my breathing and we continued with the wedding procession.
After we said our vows and the I do's it was time for the exchange of rings. I didn't know this was added to the order of service because I am sure Eros was the least interested person in this wedding.
Fortunately after the exchange of rings was announced his best man brought out the ring and gave it to him. Well I was really touched that he went put of his way to get a ring so I felt a tiny little bit of hope at that moment and it seemed he noticed my hope and so he crashed it at once by his next comment.
"Don't worry or feel touched because I didn't pick the rings out myself, my bestfriend did" he told me coldly.
Immediately the ounce of feeling I had for him disappeared as soon as it came. After we exchanged the rings the priest said the next thing that I have been dreading since the wedding procession started.
"You may now kiss the bride" the priest said. I am definitely not losing my first kiss I said to myself and definitely not to this guy so a thought came to my mind.
After the priest's pronouncement Eros unveiled me and when he did he froze. I saw him swallow his spit hard while taking a deep breath. I guess he never expected what he saw and I made an inner note to myself to thank the make up artist later.
Eros brought down his face closer to my face and angled his jaw going for the kiss. I on the other hand used my hands to cover our mouth from the audience.
It looked as if we were deep in kiss but in reality our lips never came in contact. After a few seconds I released my hands and straightened myself out feeling proud of myself. I would thank my brain later for coming up with efficient ideas in times like this.
After our little drama we turned and faced the audience as the priest pronounced us husband and wife.
We walked down the aisle hand in hand with the song "Can you feel the love tonight by John Elton" playing in the background as we headed outside.
Once we were outside we took some few pictures with our families and closest friends then we entered our ride and zoomed off to the reception.
When we got to the reception hall it was decorated like a ball room so I went into one of the rooms made available for us to change into this for the reception.
After I was done I came out and went into the hall in search of my parents. I met with them they congratulated me and wished me well on my marriage.
I equally met with my father in-law and mother in-law and they both welcomed me into the family. I met Ethan on my way and so we chatted a little. I thanked him for being here with me today before my darling husband came and whisked me away note the sarcasm.
I and Eros climbed the stage where the cake was and after cutting the cake it was time for us to dance.
I first of all danced with my dad and after I danced with Eros dad after which I danced with Ethan. I wanted to have the last dance with Eros but a young man took my hand away before I could get to Ethan and it turned out to be Eros' bestman.
"You are very beautiful " he said to me while winking at me. He wasn't looking bad either so I told him the same.
"I am Eros' bestfriend and buddy, I know we haven't been Introduced before. By the way my name is Ivan" he Introduced himself and I did same too before he released me.
I went straight to Eros arms and immediately the song changed into Ed Sheraan's "Thinking Out Loud " and we slow danced the night away.
After the dance we went to meet our parents to tell them we were leaving. I equally met Ethan and told him as well. I and Eros walked out arm in arm.
Anyone that sees us will think that we are so in love but they don't really know what is going on. Once we were outside, Eros left my hand and walked fast towards the car and got in.
"Would you walk fast already, stop walking like a slug and get in" he ordered.
This were the first words he said to me since after we got wedded. This guy is really insensitive and a jerk, he didn't have the decency to show the slightest concern to me after knowing full well that I have been in heels the whole day and he even saw me limping out earlier.
Out of anger I removed the damn heels, hurried to the car and slammed the door shut. Eros started the car and zoomed off to God knows where.
